Book Description
La ecología es la disciplina que estudia las relaciones entre los organismos y el medio, y sus alcances son amplios, e, incluso, ilimitados. Como tan sólo se ha identificado una pequeña parte de todos los organismos que pueblan nuestro planeta, se sabe muy poco sobre sus comportamientos y sus relaciones entre ellos y con nuestro entorno; asimismo ignoramos las consecuencias de la conducta humana en el medio ambiente.Joaquín Araújo trata de explicar la extrema complejidad de los seres vivos y sus relaciones, analiza sobre todo los efectos del comportamiento humano, a menudo prepotente y destructivo y nos aclara los conceptos básicos en torno a la ecología (el desarrollo sostenible, la energía nuclear, el ecosistema, la desertización o el reciclaje), para que todos tomemos conciencia de las actitudes que hay que adoptar en un mundo regido por el provecho económico.

Film Cultures
Author: Janet Harbord
Publisher: SAGE
ISBN: 1412932327
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
"Film Cultures is thought-provoking and challenging. By opening film theory up to the many simultaneous networks of relation (that is, the cultures) of film, it asks both viewer and student to take film more seriously." - Communication Research Trends "Film Cultures weaves together insights from cultural theory and film studies to provide a complex and absorbing theoretical account of contemporary film culture. Harbord writes with authority, imagination and wit and her delicate deployment of modernist and postmodernist cultural accounts makes rewarding reading." - Christine Geraghty, Professor of Film and Television, University of Glasgow Film Cultures argues that our tastes for film connect us to social, spatial and temporal networks of exchange and meaning. Whether we view film in the multiplex, arthouse or the gallery, as cinema premiere, video hire or from a cable channel, whether we approach film as a singular object or a hypertext linked to ancillary products, our relationship to film is inhabiting a culture. Shifting the focus of film analysis from the text to paths of circulation, Film Cultures questions how film connects us to social status, and national and global affiliations.

The Origins of the Modern World
Author: Robert Marks
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 074255418X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
How did the modern world get to be the way it is? How did we come to live in a globalized, industrialized, capitalistic set of nation-states? Moving beyond Eurocentric explanations and histories that revolve around the rise of the West, distinguished historian Robert B. Marks explores the roles of Asia, Africa, and the New World in the global story. He defines the modern world as marked by industry, the nation state, interstate warfare, a large and growing gap between the wealthiest and poorest parts of the world, and an escape from environmental constraints. Bringing the saga to the present, Marks considers how and why the United States emerged as a world power in the 20th century and the sole superpower by the 21st century; the powerful resurgence of Asia; and the vastly changed relationship of humans to the environment.

Matemax: English + Spanish Edition
Author: ALICIA. SABIA DICKENSTEIN (JUAN.)
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470455005
Category : Education
Languages : es
Pages : 189
Book Description
MATEMAX is a bilingual schoolbook of mathematical problems written with the premise that one of the fundamental ways of learning mathematics, in addition to being one of the goals of the subject, is to solve problems. The book is designed for children and young teens and aims to teach mathematics in an entertaining way. Problems are based on familiar everyday situations, and helpful hints guide students to develop strategies before diving into calculations, leading to practice in abstract thinking, an essential feature of mathematics. Presented in both English and Spanish it also provides equal access to students, parents and teachers with facility in either or both languages. An online supplement is available upon request at [email protected]. This companion book provides complete solutions, alternative methods and additional suggestions to complement the short answers contained in the book. In addition, while problems are arranged in the book as they appear naturally in life, the companion text connects the mathematical tools with standard curricula. Here is a sampling of those pages. MATEMAX es un libro escolar bilingüe de problemas matemáticos escrito bajo la premisa de que una de las formas fundamentales de aprender matemática, además de ser uno de los objetivos de la asignatura, es resolver problemas.

Los problemas se basan en situaciones cotidianas familiares, y sugerencias útiles guían a los estudiantes para desarrollar estrategias antes de sumergirse en los cálculos, lo que lleva a la práctica del pensamiento abstracto, una característica esencial de la matemática. Presentado tanto en inglés como en español, también proporciona un acceso igual a estudiantes, padres y maestros con facilidad en uno o ambos idiomas. Un suplemento en línea está disponible a pedido en [email protected]. Este libro acompañante proporciona soluciones completas, métodos alternativos y sugerencias adicionales para complementar las respuestas cortas contenidas en el libro. Además, mientras que los problemas están ubicados en el libro como aparecen naturalmente en la vida, el texto complementario conecta las herramientas matemáticas con los planes de estudio estándar. Aquí hay una muestra de esas páginas.

Latin America’s Cold War
Author: Hal Brands
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674055284
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
For Latin America, the Cold War was anything but cold. Nor was it the so-called “long peace” afforded the world’s superpowers by their nuclear standoff. In this book, the first to take an international perspective on the postwar decades in the region, Hal Brands sets out to explain what exactly happened in Latin America during the Cold War, and why it was so traumatic. Tracing the tumultuous course of regional affairs from the late 1940s through the early 1990s, Latin America’s Cold War delves into the myriad crises and turning points of the period—the Cuban revolution and its aftermath; the recurring cycles of insurgency and counter-insurgency; the emergence of currents like the National Security Doctrine, liberation theology, and dependency theory; the rise and demise of a hemispheric diplomatic challenge to U.S. hegemony in the 1970s; the conflagration that engulfed Central America from the Nicaraguan revolution onward; and the democratic and economic reforms of the 1980s. Most important, the book chronicles these events in a way that is both multinational and multilayered, weaving the experiences of a diverse cast of characters into an understanding of how global, regional, and local influences interacted to shape Cold War crises in Latin America. Ultimately, Brands exposes Latin America’s Cold War as not a single conflict, but rather a series of overlapping political, social, geostrategic, and ideological struggles whose repercussions can be felt to this day.
