Download or read book ANATOM A Y MOVIMIENTO HUMANO ESTRUCTURA Y FUNCIONAMIENTO written by Nigel Palastanga and published by Editorial Paidotribo. This book was released on 2007-04-26 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siendo cada vez mayores las exigencias que soportan los estudiantes y postgraduados, son muchos los cursos que han adoptado un enfoque de enseñanza y aprendizaje más orientado a los estudiantes. Este libro está pensado para que el lector pueda trabajar solo, a su propio ritmo, y con la profundidad requerida para la práctica profesional. La estructura y organización del texto permitirá a los profesores estructurar la enseñanza, sobre todo las tutorías, a través de las distintas secciones de cada capítulo. En la edición de este libro se han reunido en un capítulo los componentes del sistema musculoesquelético y la embriología primaria básica; la piel, sus apéndices y los sentidos especiales aparecen en un capítulo aparte; el desarrollo de los miembros aparece en cada capítulo pertinente, así como los ejemplos del movimientos articular y la acción muscular durante los movimientos funcionales. La cabeza y el cuello constituyen un nuevo capítulo al igual que el tronco; otro capítulo estudia la anatomía de las vísceras, y el sistema nervioso también cuenta con su propio apartado. No obstante, el lector deberá ser consciente de que siempre habrá algunas variaciones en la anatomía individual de cada persona. En ello radica el desafío de la comprensión y aplicación de la anatomía viva. Lectores y practicantes necesitarán conocer la anatomía funcional y hallar soluciones cuando apliquen los conocimientos anatómicos a la vida real.

Download or read book Biodiversity written by N. Biedinger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biodiversity, sometimes simply understood as "diversity of species", is a specific quality of life on our planet, the dimensions and importance of which have just lately been fully realized. Today we know that "biological diversity is a global asset of incalculable value to present and future generations" (Kofi Annan). Biodiversity is spread unequally over the world: in fact, the main share of biological resources worldwide is harboured predominantly by the so-called developing countries in the tropics and sub tropics. Therefore, Biodiversity - A Challenge for Development Research and Policy was chosen as the title for an international conference which was held in Bonn in 1997 as one of the first major events organized by the then newly established North-South Centre for Development Research (ZEF) at Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universitat Bonn (Germany). Since the ZEF, founded by the Senate of the University of Bonn in 1995, has played a central role in turning Bonn into a centre for international cooperation and North-South dialogue. The Centre is a product of the Bonn Berlin agreement of July 1994 which was adopted to offset the effects caused by the Parliament and much of the Government moving to Berlin. It fits in well with the double strategy to strengthen Bonn's position as an interna tional science arena and as an eminent place for development policy and the national and supranational agencies dealing with this issue.
Download or read book Myocardial torsion written by Jorge C. Trainini and published by Editorial Biblos. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Myocardial Torsion is a book different from others, simply because this book is unique, unusual, and I dare say with admiration, it is a curious book, partly magical, full of personality, for initiatory readers, revealing, provocative, challenging. The book has the infrequent peculiarity of being based, to a great extent, on original personal and multidisciplinary investigations, granting it an important extra value. The authors define their purpose since the firsts pages of the book: to provide solidity, validity and even more to Torrent Guasp's concepts. This is certainly a different book in its structure, content and elaboration. It is a text that the reader may admire or criticize, that may create skepticism or surprise at the new data it propose, but wich undoudtedly will leavenobody indifferent, and that is something few books can achieve.

Download or read book Transvestism Masculinity and Latin American Literature written by B. Sifuentes-Jáuregui and published by Springer. This book was released on 2002-02-22 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about transvestism and the performance of gender in Latin American literature and culture. Ben. Sifuentes-Jáuregui explores the figure of the transvestite and his/her relation to the body through a series of canonical Latin American texts. By analyzing works by Alejo Carpentier, José Donoso, Severo Sarduy and Manuel Puig (author of Kiss of the Spiderwoma n), alongside critical works in gender studies and queer theory, Sifuentes-Jáuregui shows how transvestism operates not only to destabilize, but often to affirm sexual, gender, national and political identities.

Download or read book Calcium Entry Blockers in Cardiovascular and Cerebral Dysfunctions written by T. Godfraind and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2 The free internal Ca+ concentration in human red cells is set according to the leak 2 and-pump principle: There is a finite passive Ca+ influx at the physiological 2 2 Ca+ -gradient across the membrane which is compensated by Ca+ pumping in the outward direction with a rate given by the degree of saturation of the A TP-fuelled Ca 2 pump at the steady-state internal Ca+ concentration. Simons (1982) recently devised a method allowing the measurement of the steady 2 2 state internal Ca+ concentration. Cells are suspended in media of different Ca+ con 2 2 tent whose Ca+ concentration is monitored by a Ca+ -selective electrode. When the cells are lysed (by digitonin) there is an upward or downward deflection of the elec 2 trode signal. At the point of zero deflection, the cellular Ca+ concentration equals that 2 of the medium. The result is, that in fresh human red blood cells the Ca+ concentra tion is ;;;; O.4,uM (this is an upper estimate; the true value may be considerably lower).
