Histórias de Gênero
Este livro reúne mais de 20 textos que são o resultado de palestras e comunicações proferidas durante a I Jornadas do Laboratório de Estudos de Gênero e História - LEGH, intitulada Gênero, Poder e Subjetividades, realizada na Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina - UFSC, em Dezembro de 2015. O livro, produção que comemora os 10 anos do LEGH, é composto por capítulos produzidos por pesquisadoras que integraram e integram um dos principais grupos de estudos de gênero do país. A obra está dividida em 4 partes: Gênero e interdisciplinaridade; Gênero, ensino e trajetórias de pesquisa; Gênero, feminismos e sexualidades e Gênero, feminismos e ditaduras no Cone Sul.
Memórias da resistência: mulheres nas ditaduras do Cone Sul
Este livro é resultado de anos de pesquisas sobre as ditaduras e os feminismos no Cone Sul. Ele retrata um período de terrorismo de Estado e a resistência que as mulheres protagonizaram em diferentes países do Cone Sul, como Brasil, Argentina, Bolívia, Chile, Paraguai e Uruguai. O contexto de cada país definiu as formas de luta e a trajetória destas lutadoras mostra a potencialidade de suas ações, como militantes, integrantes de organizações políticas, clandestinas, exiladas, torturadas, etc. As experiências de vida de várias delas estão retratadas nesta obra, dividida em sete capítulos.

Wildlife in a Changing World
"Wildlife in a Changing World" presents an analysis of the 2008 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Beginning with an explanation of the IUCN Red List as a key conservation tool, it goes on to discuss the state of the world s species and provides the latest information on the patterns of species facing extinction in some of the most important ecosystems in the world, highlighting the reasons behind their declining status. Areas of focus in the report include: freshwater biodiversity, the status of the world s marine species, species susceptibility to climate change impacts, the Mediterranean biodiversity hot spot, and broadening the coverage of biodiversity assessments."
Application and Integration of Omics-powered Diagnostics in Clinical and Public Health Microbiology
Various “omics” methods have recently revolutionized molecular diagnostics. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) makes it possible to sequence a human genome in just one day. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) greatly improves the ability to investigate the outbreaks of numerous pathogens. Metagenomics helps to analyze the microbiome, which aids greatly in identifying the pathogenesis of infectious diseases. Proteomic-based methods, namely matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), have a promising role in identifying myctobacteria and fungi, and predicting antimicrobial resistance. While there are numerous scientific publications on “omics” a...
Encyclopedia of Addictions [2 volumes]
This two volume set contains frank and factual information about symptoms, causes, effects, prevention, and treatment of substance abuse—alcohol, nicotine, and drugs—and of behavioral addictions such as eating disorders, pathological gambling, and compulsive sexual activity. Including the most up-to-date research, the addiction entries are based largely on criteria established by the American Psychiatric Association in its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.Tracing the history of the debate over whether addiction is a choice or a disease, the volumes explain how genetic and biological findings support the disease concept while lifestyle choices affect the course of the disease. Graphics and discussions of the brain structures that support this self-reinforcing mechanism illustrate why treatments that obstruct the pathway are showing such promise.
Gendered Memories
How does gender shape memory? What role does literature play in cultural remembering? These are two of the questions to which the present volume is addressed. Even if we agree that remembering is not biologically determined, we can assume that memory is influenced by the particular social, cultural and historical conditions in which individuals find themselves. And since men and women generally assume different social and cultural roles, their way of remembering should also differ. So, do women and men remember different events, narrate different stories, and narrate or read them in different ways? Gendered Memories, then, not only looks at memory gendered by literature, but also wants to know how gender shapes the memory of literature.
Work and Family--Allies or Enemies?
We've come a long way since the classic book The Organization Man first introduced the "ideal" 2-person career--a full-time male breadwinner and a stay-at-home wife. What typified the '50s good life is in stark contrast to contemporary reality: 63% of all married women with children under six years old are in the workforce and 40% of all workers are part of a dual-earner couple. Work and Family--Allies or Enemies? offers a fresh new lens for viewing the real struggles that business professionals face in their daily battle to find ways of "getting a life" and "having it all." Based on a pioneering study that surveyed more than 800 business professionals, this volume will help readers understa...
