With a masterful mixture of explanatory text, real cases showing the law at work, and the reflections of important historical and contemporary legal thinkers, Understanding Law explains the complexity of law at a level that everyone can understand. The book walks students through the structure of the legal system, different divisions of civil law, and the core concepts and distinctions that underlie contemporary legal thought. It also provides insight into the way law and social change affect one another. It also provides insight into the way law and social change affect one another. With this third edition, the authors have substantially updated and expanded the text, adding 25 percent new cases, a new chapter on family law, and innovative 'You be the Judge' sections in each chapter, inviting students to decide legal questions, engage with the issues, and test their understanding"--P.

Download or read book An Anatomy of Power written by John A. Hall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-02-09 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Mann is one of the most influential sociologists of recent decades. His work has had a major impact in sociology, history, political science, international relations and other social science disciplines. His main work, The Sources of Social Power, of which two of three volumes have been completed, provides an all-encompassing account of the history of power from the beginnings of stratified societies to present day. Recently he has published two major works, Fascists and The Dark Side of Democracy. Yet unlike other contemporary social thinkers, Mann's work has not, until now, been systematically and critically assessed. This volume assembles a group of distinguished scholars to take stock, both of Mann's overall method and of his account of particular periods and historical cases. It also contains Mann's reply where he answers his critics and forcefully restates his position. This is a unique and provocative study for scholars and students alike.

Download or read book Alimentaci n complementaria Bases para la introducci n de nuevos alimentos al lactante written by Arturo Perea and published by Ergon. This book was released on 2019-12-23 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La alimentación complementaria se define como aquellos alimentos, sólidos o líquidos, distintos a la leche y que se introducen cuando ésta ya no es capaz de cubrir las necesidades nutricionales de los lactantes. Es necesaria tanto por razones nutricionales como de desarrollo. Probablemente no exista ningún otro momento en la vida en el que la alimentación tenga tanta importancia como en los primeros 1000 días, desde el momento de la concepción hasta cumplir los 2 años de edad. Es un momento de plasticidad del genotipo del individuo, en el que la influencia ambiental a través de la nutrición puede dejar una impronta que modifique la expresión de los genes y establezca cambios genéticos que incidan en su futuro. Esa etapa sería así una “ventana de oportunidad”. Una nutrición adecuada es clave no solo para el crecimiento, sino también para alcanzar un desarrollo intelectual e inmune óptimos y un buen estado de salud en edades posteriores. El objetivo principal de la nutrición del niño no es solo conseguir un crecimiento y desarrollo adecuados, sino también prevenir enfermedades crónicas en la edad adulta como obesidad, diabetes, hipercolesterolemia, hipertensión arterial, cardiopatía isquémica, etc. El objetivo de este manual es dirigir el conocimiento actual sobre alimentación complementaria, para una mejor prescripción y una práctica más profesionalizada por parte del equipo de salud.Índice de capítulos (extracto) Capítulo 1.

Download or read book Inequality and Development Challenges written by Maria Clara Couto Soares and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series of books brings together results of an extensive research programme on aspects of the national systems of innovation (NSI) in the five BRICS countries — Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. It provides a comprehensive and comparative examination of the challenges and opportunities faced by these dynamic and emerging economies. In discussing the impact of innovation with respect to economic, geopolitical, socio-cultural, institutional, and technological systems, it reveals the possibilities of new development paradigms for equitable and sustainable growth. This volume analyses the co-evolution of inequality and NSI across the BRICS economies. It reveals the multi-dimensional character of inequality, in going beyond its income aspect to include assets, access to basic services, infrastructure, knowledge, race, gender, ethnicity and geographic location. In advancing valuable policy recommendations, the book argues that inequalities must be factored in development strategies given that benefits of innovation are not automatically distributed equally. Original and detailed data, together with expert analyses on wide-ranging issues, make this book an invaluable resource for researchers and scholars in economics, development studies and political science, in addition to policy-makers and development practitioners interested in the BRICS countries.

Download or read book The Divine Mimesis written by Pier Paolo Pasolini and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-02 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written between 1963 and 1967, The Divine Mimesis, Pasolini's imitation of the early cantos of the Inferno, offers a searing critique of Italian society and the intelligentsia of the 1960s. It is also a self-critique by the author of The Ashes of Gramsci (1957) who saw the civic world evoked by that book fading absolutely from view. By the mid-1960s, Pasolini theorized, the Italian language had sacrificed its connotative expressiveness for the sake of a denuded technological language of pure communication. In this context, he projects a 'rewrite' of Dante's Commedia in which two historical embodiments of Pasolini himself occupy the roles of the pilgrim and guide in their underworld journey. Densely layered with poetic and philological allusions, and illuminated by a parallel text of photographs that juxtapose the world of the Italian literati to the simple reality of rural Italian life, this narrative was curtailed by Pasolini several years before he sent it to his publisher, a few months prior to his murder in 1975. Yet, many of Pasolini's projects took the provisional form of "Notes toward..." an eventual work, such as Sopralluoghi in Palestina (Location Scouting in Palestine), Appunti per una Oresteiade africana (Notes for an African Oresteia), and Appunti per un film sull'India (Notes for a Film on India). The Divine Mimesis has a kinship to these filmic works as Pasolini himself ruled it 'complete' though still in a partial form. Written at a turning point in his life when he was wrestling with his poetic 'demons, ' the true center of gravity of Pasolini's Dantean project is the potential of poetry to teach and probe, ethically and aesthetically, in reality. "I wanted to make something seething and magmatic," Pasolini declared, "even if in prose." In this first English translation of Pasolini's La divina mimesis, Italianist Thomas E. Peterson offers historical, linguistic, and cultural analyses that aim to expand the discourse about an enigmatic author considered by many to be the greatest Italian poet after Montale. Published by Contra Mundum Press one year in advance of the 40th anniversary of Pasolini's death. * In the history of twentieth-century poetry, there is no other poet besides Pasolini who has more tenaciously interrogated his own 'I, ' more persistently contemplated it, admired it, examined it, analyzed it and dissected it in order then to show its suffering entrails to the world, as they beg for understanding, affection, and pity. - Giorgio Barberi Squarotti *"
