This monograph is the first in which the theory of groupoids and algebroids is applied to the study of the properties of uniformity and homogeneity of continuous media. It is a further step in the application of differential geometry to the mechanics of continua, initiated years ago with the introduction of the theory of G-structures, in which the group G denotes the group of material symmetries, to study smoothly uniform materials.The new approach presented in this book goes much further by being much more general. It is not a generalization per se, but rather a natural way of considering the algebraic-geometric structure induced by the so-called material isomorphisms. This approach has allowed us to encompass non-uniform materials and discover new properties of uniformity and homogeneity that certain material bodies can possess, thus opening a new area in the discipline.

"Della Porta has assembled a distinguished group of scholars who have made great strides in illuminating the early phases of the movement. The book includes especially keen analyses of the movement against global capitalism, particularly in its European manifestations." John D. McCarthy, Pennsylvania State University "Della Porta has skillfully coordinated a comparative study in six European countries and the US. Renowned scholars give testimony of the movement in their countries. [This is] the first attempt to document a genuine transnational movement." Bert Klandermans, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam You G-8, we 6 billion!" So went the chant at the international parade leading into the summit in Genoa, Italy. The global justice movement has led to a new wave of protest, building up transnational networks, inventing new strategies of action, constructing new images of democracy, and boldly asserting that "another world is possible". This book examines all this and more with case studies drawn from seven different countries, covering transnational networks and making cross-national comparisons. Leading European and American scholars analyze more than 300 organizations and 5,000 activists, looking at mobilizations that bridge old and new movements and bring politics back to the street. Contributors include: Massimiliano Andretta, Angel Calle, Helene Combes, Donatella della Porta, Nina Eggert, Marco Giugni, Jennifer Hadden, Manuel Jimenez, Raffaele Marchetti, Lorenzo Mosca, Mario Pianta, Herbert Reiter, Christopher Rootes, Dieter Rucht, Clare Saunders, Isabelle Sommier, Sidney Tarrow, Simon Teune, Mundo Yang.

This textbook serves as an introduction to the subject of embedded systems design, using microcontrollers as core components. It develops concepts from the ground up, covering the development of embedded systems technology, architectural and organizational aspects of controllers and systems, processor models, and peripheral devices. Since microprocessor-based embedded systems tightly blend hardware and software components in a single application, the book also introduces the subjects of data representation formats, data operations, and programming styles. The practical component of the book is tailored around the architecture of a widely used Texas Instrument's microcontroller, the MSP430 and a companion web site offers for download an experimenter's kit and lab manual, along with Powerpoint slides and solutions for instructors.

Addressing the major advances in biomedical, psychological, social, and environmental sciences over the past decade, Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics, 5th Edition, remains the reference of choice for professionals in a wide range of fields, including medicine and health care, education, social service, advocacy, and public policy. This foundational, pioneering resource emphasizes children's assets and liabilities, not just categorical labels. Comprehensive in scope, it offers information and guidance on normal development and behavior, psychosocial, and biologic influences on development, developmental disorders, neurodevelopmental disabilities, and mental health conditions. It also discusses tools and strategies for diagnosis and management, including new assessments that can be used in telehealth encounters. Offers a highly practical focus, emphasizing clinical approaches to evaluation, counseling, treatment, and ongoing care. Provides new or expanded information on theoretical foundations of human development and behavior; trauma, adverse childhood events, and resilience across the life span; mechanisms of genetic, epigenetic, and neurological conditions; and principles of psychological assessment, including a broad array of evaluation approaches. Discusses management and treatment for developmental and behavioral conditions, spanning common factors, cognitive behavior therapies, rehabilitative services, integrative medicine, and psychopharmacology. Contains up-to-date chapters on celebrating socio-cultural diversity and addressing racism and bias, acute stress and post-traumatic stress disorder in youth, sexuality and variation, and alternatives to restrictive guardianship. Begins each chapter with a colorful vignette that demonstrates the importance of the human dimensions of developmental-behavioral pediatrics. Offers viewpoints from an interdisciplinary team of editors and contributors, representing developmental-behavioral pediatrics, general pediatrics, psychiatry, psychology, occupational and physical therapy, speech-language pathology, and law. Provides the latest drug information in the updated and revised chapters on psychopharmacology. Includes key points boxes, tables, pictures, and diagrams to clarify and enhance the text.

After the publication of Learning Diagnostic Imaging, which was an introductory teaching ? le to the ten radiological subspecialties included in the American Boards of Radiology, we began to write a series of teaching ? les on each radiological subspecialty. If the ? rst book of the series was mainly aimed at residents and provided them with an introductory tool to the study of radiology, the subsequent volumes of the series try to provide the reader with an introduction to the study of each radiological subspecialty. In Learning Cardiac Imaging, we intend to review cardiac imaging from the p- spective of the six imaging modalities usually performed to obtain anatomic and functional information of the heart. In old days, conventional radiographs gave us some information about the an- omy and, only secondarily, the pathophysiology of the heart. With the advent of echocardiography, the heart could be studied dynamically. Nuclear Medicine and Cardiac MR allowed the study of cardiac function. 32- and 64-detector multislice CT let us obtain images of the coronary tree in a noninvasive approach. Cardiac imaging is complex and many health care professionals are needed, ? rstly, in the obtention and, secondly, in the interpretation of the images. Not only rad- lologists, cardiologists, and nuclear medicine physicians are needed, specialized nurses and technicians are indispensable to obtain diagnostic images of such a dynamic anatomic structure as the heart. The authorship of the book re? ects its multidisciplinary approach of the book.

Mi nombre es Fernando M Jimenez Macias y trabajo como hepatologo en el Complejo Hospitalario de Huelva desde 2004. Actualmente estamos viviendo un momento muy dulce en esta area de la medicina, despues de haber vivido durante muchos anos como la terapia antiviral basada en interferon, hacia pasarlo muy mal a nuestros pacientes con hepatitis cronica por virus de la hepatitis C,que veian como despues de estar sometidos a esta terapia no conseguian finalmente curarse. Hoy en dia con la llegada de los nuevos antivirales de accion directa, hemos iniciado el camino de la erradicacion de este mortal virus. He elaborado esta obra como herramienta que ayude a hepatologos inquietos como yo, que deseen desarrollar una praxis medica no solo basada en la evidencia cientifica, sino que ademas le permita gestionar de forma costoeficiente los recursos sanitarios, que en un momento como el que vivimos de crisis economica global, hagan mas sostenible nuestro sistema sanitario universal. Espero que te guste!

La historia cuenta como Antonio; un joven maestro Andaluz de la comarca de Los Pedroches en la provincia de Cordoba, totalmente apolitico y antibelicista, tras una serie de acontecimientos se ve abocado a enrolarse en el bando republicano convencido que la guerra, seria un pequeno "paseo" y que en pocos dias, las aguas volverian a su cauce. Nada mas lejos de la realidad. Su odisea duraria mas de diez anos, guerreando y sufriendo el calvario del cautiverio, en los campos de refugiados franceses al termino de la guerra civil, de donde el y su amigo inseparable Polonio (Poli) escaparian con la intencion de volver a Espana y luchar contra el regimen del general Francisco Franco. Pero ante la imposibilidad de regresar a Espana se entrego a las autoridades francesas, siendo Integrado en el ejercito frances al estallar la segunda guerra mundial. Fue hecho prisionero por los nazis y llevado a los campos de concentracion de Dachau en Alemania, y poco despues a Mauthausen en Austria, donde estaria cuatro largos anos, sobreviviendo a todo tipo de vilezas y torturas, sobre todo, sobrevivio a la cruel prueba que resultaba ser para todo aquel que terminaba prisionero entre sus muros; su famosa cantera de granito con sus 186 peldanos de muerte, construida con la sangre de los republicanos espanoles alli recluidos y donde fueron masacrados miles de ellos...

En esta obra los medicos residentes de la especialidad de Aparato Digestivo que hayan superado la oposicion MIR y que hayan obtenido plaza en el Hospital Juan Ramon Jimenez de Huelva (Espana), se expone las competencias, recomendaciones, legislacion y guia o itinerario docente que precisa saber un futuro profesional de la sanidad.
