Sinopsis: "Pocos han podido experimentar la escalofriante dimensi n en la que Yuri Loya, un joven ingeniero de origen hispano, ha incursionado a lo largo de su b squeda por la continua redenci n de su bruta y humana carnalidad dentro del mundo de la fe. Sus convicciones y esp ritu inquieto lo empujar n hacia un mundo que s lo pod a concebir en sue os: una despiadada ofensiva de seres no naturales, quienes se engranan sin tregua en distintos tiempos y escenarios, y donde la neutralidad s lo posterga el proceso de aniquilaci n. Las decisiones de Yuri pondr n en juego su existencia y la de otras personas en su entorno. En el principio, millones de creaturas desterradas, oscuras y decadentes, se asentaron en distintas regiones de la Tierra en forma de clanes. Es en 1942, en la regi n de Tluzcz, Polonia, cuando un ente rival emprende una nueva estrategia que promete proteger a aquellos humanos catalogados como "elegidos". Su objetivo principal: extender la vida de un hombre. Pero el plan se ver saboteado por la esencia misma de su nueva naturaleza mortal, ocasionando un giro inesperado en la historia de cada uno de estos personajes." Los escenarios son poco triviales, comparados con muchas de las producciones cinematogr ficas y literarias actuales. Esta obra trata del choque de fuerzas sobrenaturales; entes cuyo fundamento inicial es et reo (intangible) e inmortal. Bandos con fines opuestos, relacionados de forma intr nseca con la conducta humana. Tiempo despu s de su fundaci n como protectores de un Reino no natural, millones de ellos son desterrados hacia nuestro mundo, donde se asientan en cada region habitable de la Tierra, ocasionando sufrimiento, destrucci n y muerte. Miles de a os despu s, un peque o grupo de aquellos que quedaron de parte del Reino, les es concedido venir a proteger (ahora en un cuerpo mortal) a unos cuantos humanos: aquellos que establecieron una conexi n invisible e intangible con el Reino, y convirti ndose en gente que vierte sus vidas a favor de los dem s de manera desinteresada. Se plantean distintos escenarios y pocas: en Las Filipinas, Bielorrusia (Rusia), Polonia, Espa a y Norteam rica, en 1942, 1943, el 2000 y en la poca actual. Se relata tambi n la vida de este personaje, en medio de la crudeza del c ncer, insuficiencia renal y retraso psicomotriz.

Los Indignados: Tides of Social Insertion in Spain

Los Indignados: Tides of Social Insertion in Spain

Richard R. Weiner; Ivan Lopez

John Hunt Publishing
2017

The emergent Indignados movement in Spain is transforming Spanish politics and society, heralding an end to the Transition since Franco, and responding to multiple legitimation crises in Spain and in Europe. This movement is rooted in the Stop Evictions campaign led by Ada Colau in Barcelona following the bursting of the subprime mortgage bubble in the wake of the 2008; as well as the 15-M Movement arising in May 2011 Puerta del Sol of Madrid, symbolizing the Indignez-Vous outrage of a lost generation.

Nonequilibrium Phenomena in Polyatomic Gases: Volume 1: Dilute Gases

Nonequilibrium Phenomena in Polyatomic Gases: Volume 1: Dilute Gases

Most gases in nature are polyatomic, yet they are not considered in many textbooks of kinetic theory. In recent years they have been the subject of intensive research, and interesting results have been obtained which remain largely unknown. This book reviews the present state of knowledge of the kinetic theory of polyatomic gases, and is the first to provide a comprehensive account of both theoretical and experimental aspects of their behaviour. The first volume deals with dilute gases, in which boundary-layer effects can be neglected. Transport and relaxation phenomena such as heat conduction, diffusion, thermal diffusion, and viscous flow are considered from the point of view of kinetic theory. Special attention is paid to phenomena which do not occur in monatomic gases, including light scattering, nuclear spin relaxation, microwave absorption, and the effects of magnetic and electric fields on transport properties. Volume II begins by establishing the connections between molecular scattering theory and effective cross-sections in dilute gases,and then considers rarefied gases in detail. Detailed theoretical derivations are presented throughout the book, and experimental results and methods are documented in tables and figures. Introductory sections will be of use to graduates with a knowledge of elementary classical and quantum mechanics. The more specialized chapters are aimed at professionals who want information regarding the present state of the art in a particular field or who require data for various phenomena.

Richard B. Welbourn, a retired endocrine surgeon who has written two books on the subject, has compiled the definitive history of the new and advancing discipline of endocrine surgery. The book traces the history of endocrine surgery from its origins to the 1980s, detailing the stories behind the surgery of each gland. A valuable biographical index containing basic information as well as the ideas and achievements of great names in the field will prove an invaluable resource. Topics include: Evolution of Endocrine Surgery; The Pituitary; The Thyroid; Thyroid Cancer; The Adrenal Glands; The Parathyroid Glands; The Endocrine Gut and Pancreas; Islet Cell Transplantation; Multiple Endocrine Adenopathy and Paraendocrine Syndromes; Cancer of the Breast and Prostate; Essential and Renal Hypertension; Surgical Stress. The book also includes more than 80 photos and diagrams. A chronological table shows the main events described in the text in their temporal context via milestones in general medicine, surgery and science, and selected major events in political and social history.

Causal Inferences in Capital Markets Research is an attempt to promote a broad interdisciplinary debate about the notion of causality and the role of causal inference in the social sciences.At the risk of oversimplifying, the issue of causality divides the accounting research community in two polar views: the view that causality is an unattainable ideal for the social sciences and must be given up as a standard, and the view that, on one hand, causality should be the ultimate goal of all scientific endeavors and, on the other hand, theory and causal inference are inextricable. Reflecting and discussing these views was the main motivation for this volume. This volume contains eight articles on three topics: I) Econometrics; III) Accounting, and III) Finance.First, Nancy Cartwright addresses the problem of external validity and the reliability of scientific claims that generalize individual cases. Then, John Rust discusses the role of assumptions in empirical research and the possibility of assumption-free inference. Peter Reiss considers the question how sensitive are instrumental variables to functional form transformations. Finally, Charles Manski studies the logical issues that affect the interpretation of point predictions.Second, Jeremy Bertomeu, Anne Beyer and Daniel Taylor provide a critical overview of empirical accounting research focusing on the benefits of theory-based estimation, while Qi Chen and Katherine Schipper consider the question whether all research should be causal and assess the existing gap between theory and empirical research in accounting.Third, R. Jay Kahn and Toni Whited clarifies and contrasts the notions of identification and causality, whereas Ivo Welch adopts a sociology of science approach to understand the consequences of the researchers’ race for discovering novel and surprising results.This volume allows researchers and Ph.D students in accounting, and the social sciences in general, to acquire a deeper understanding of the notion of causality and the nature, limits, and scope of empirical research in the social sciences.
