Book Description
La “mediana edad” es un concepto que se utiliza en todos los ámbitos y que presenta numerosos vértices diferentes, aunque generalmente es bastante impreciso, incluso dentro del paradigma psicoanalítico. Este libro trata de determinar su significado preciso a través del reto que representa sentar las bases para el desarrollo de una verdadera metapsicología psicoanalítica de la “mediana edad”, algo que los editores creen que le faltaba al psicoanálisis. Desde este planteamiento, han invitado a catorce psicoanalistas de renombre a que compartieran sus ideas sobre el tema y el resultado de esa labor es Puesta al día sobre la mediana edad: perspectivas psicoanalíticas, que, además de las diversas aportaciones, contiene un estudio introductorio realizado por los editores. Este libro supone un verdadero avance en el desarrollo de una metapsicología específica para la “mediana edad”.

Book Description
Enemy in the Blood: Malaria, Environment, and Development in Argentina examines the dramatic yet mostly forgotten history of malaria control in northwest Argentina. Carter traces the evolution of malaria science and policy in Argentina from the disease’s emergence as a social problem in the 1890s to its effective eradication by 1950. Malaria-control proponents saw the campaign as part of a larger project of constructing a modern identity for Argentina. Insofar as development meant building a more productive, rational, and hygienic society, the perceptions of a culturally backwards and disease-ridden interior prevented Argentina from joining the ranks of “modern” nations. The path to eradication, however, was not easy due to complicated public health politics, inappropriate application of foreign malaria control strategies, and a habitual misreading of the distinctive ecology of malaria in the northwest, especially the unique characteristics of the local mosquito vector. Homegrown scientific expertise, a populist public health agenda, and an infusion of new technologies eventually brought a rapid end to malaria’s scourge, if not the cure for regional underdevelopment. Enemy in the Blood sheds light on the often neglected history of northwest Argentina’s interior, adds to critical perspectives on the history of development and public health in modern Latin America, and demonstrates the merits of integrative socialenvironmental research.
