Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro fue escrito con el fin de comunicar la variabilidad de aspectos que deben tener en cuenta los profesionales de la salud física que quieran abordar a sus pacientes o atletas con una mirada integral. Se describe de forma superficial la anatomía y biomecánica del ser humano que se debe conocer para formular procesos de acción sobre las problemáticas de los pacientes y los objetivos kinésicos de los deportistas. Se hace referencia al desarrollo motor del ser humano desde su nacimiento hasta el primer año de vida, ya que al analizar este proceso se descubre y se puede explicar cómo se produce el desarrollo y aprendizaje de los movimientos. En relación a esto, se expone el contexto que lleva a los sujetos a perder las capacidades motrices aprendidas y como las restricciones que se instalan por las condiciones de la vida moderna pueden limitar las funciones, modificar la postura y también limitar las habilidades deportivas. En la segunda mitad del libro se mencionan algunos movimientos básicos del entrenamiento que tienen relación a mejorar la salud de los practicantes pero que pueden mostrar problemas en la práctica diaria. Sobre estos se nombran aspectos que pueden llevar al desarrollo de lesiones deportivas en fases formativas o instancias avanzadas del entrenamiento, y se sugieren observaciones que servirán al lector de guía para enseñar o corregir la ejecución de las diversas técnicas. Se describen los movimientos metodológicos del levantamiento olímpico y como podemos visualizar los errores provenientes de restricciones articulares que dificultan el movimiento normal de los sujetos que lo practican. Ya que esta disciplina puede usarse para mejorar la salud física de una población así como también para incrementar el rendimiento físico de los equipos deportivos, resulta fundamental brindar herramientas de evaluación y corrección de los problemas que podemos encontrar en los mismos. En los capítulos finales se propone una serie de ejercicios de movilidad y elasticidad relativos al progreso de desarrollo motor del ser humano que podemos utilizar dentro de los planes de rehabilitación o entrenamiento para devolver la habilidad motriz a un sujeto. Así podemos actuar luego de una lesión para integrar nuevamente a la actividad física a una persona o ayudar al practicante que encuentra restricciones del movimiento en su actividad deportiva y trabajar los aspectos deficitarios de atletas que nos permitirán disminuir la posibilidad de desarrollar lesiones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.
Download or read book Without Criteria written by Steven Shaviro and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Deleuzian reading of Whitehead and a Whiteheadian reading of Deleuze open the possibility of a critical aesthetics of contemporary culture. In Without Criteria, Steven Shaviro proposes and explores a philosophical fantasy: imagine a world in which Alfred North Whitehead takes the place of Martin Heidegger. What if Whitehead, instead of Heidegger, had set the agenda for postmodern thought? Heidegger asks, “Why is there something, rather than nothing?” Whitehead asks, “How is it that there is always something new?” In a world where everything from popular music to DNA is being sampled and recombined, argues Shaviro, Whitehead's question is the truly urgent one. Without Criteria is Shaviro's experiment in rethinking postmodern theory, especially the theory of aesthetics, from a point of view that hearkens back to Whitehead rather than Heidegger. In working through the ideas of Whitehead and Deleuze, Shaviro also appeals to Kant, arguing that certain aspects of Kant's thought pave the way for the philosophical “constructivism” embraced by both Whitehead and Deleuze. Kant, Whitehead, and Deleuze are not commonly grouped together, but the juxtaposition of them in Without Criteria helps to shed light on a variety of issues that are of concern to contemporary art and media practices.

Download or read book Trompetas de paladio written by Albert Siré and published by Caligrama. This book was released on 2019-04-18 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuando la humanidad se convierta en un juego de apariencias e intereses confrontados, ¿a quién confiaremos el futuro? Roy Stark es un ingeniero en robótica, superdotado y librepensador, que oculta sus altas capacidades trabajando en una ONG. Sin embargo, una crisis interminable le obliga a convertirse en miembro de un partido populista americano con el objetivo de seguir ayudando a los demás. Frente a los políticos que toman las decisiones pensando en su beneficio a corto plazo, surge el personaje de Roy, que está interesado en solucionar los problemas de la sociedad, aunque para ello aplique una visión muy particular del mundo: «sugestionado por Moore, el hombre ha logrado evolucionar un ordenador portátil de principios de siglo, que tenía el cerebro de un mosquito, hasta computadores como los de ahora, capaces de emular un cerebro humano. El cofundador de Intel podría haber usado el poder de la sugestión para conseguir mejores cosas. Por ejemplo, podría haber dicho: "Compañeros del planeta Tierra, sabed que hay un tipo ocioso y bendito que vive en el cielo, a miles de kilómetros sobre nosotros, que nos observa permanentemente". ¿Qué habría conseguido con esta afirmación? Un mundo más civilizado, porque ya se sabe que nos portamos mejor cuando alguien nos está mirando». En su aventura como político, Roy tendrá que enfrentarse a Deus Ex Machina, una todopoderosa corporación tecnológica que pretende inundar las calles de robots inteligentes de aspecto humano, sin tener en cuenta el impacto que tendrán sobre los enfermos del shock del futuro. Las luchas de poder y los conflictos de intereses desembocarán en una alocada carrera de Roy por su supervivencia. En sus aventuras, le acompañarán Denisse, una valiente activista cuyo padre se suicidó por culpa del shock, junto con dos robots llamados R y D. También contará con el apoyo de unas peculiares estrellas de la música antisistema que le asesorarán en la toma de decisiones políticas, sirviéndose para ello de las frases de algunos de sus míticos temas. Albert Siré se sirve de los elementos de la ciencia ficción clásica y el humor para desarrollar una historia de amores imposibles, política y música punk, que se resuelve en un sorprendente desenlace que muestra la importancia de mantenerse fiel a uno mismo.
Download or read book The Forbidden Religion written by Jose M. Herrou Aragon and published by José M. Herrou Aragón. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gnosis means knowledge. But we are not referring to just any knowledge. Gnosis is knowledge which produces a great transformation in those who receive it. Knowledge capable of nothing less than waking up man and helping him to escape from the prison in which he finds himself. That is why Gnosis has been so persecuted throughout the course of history, because it is knowledge considered dangerous for the religious and political authorities who govern mankind from the shadows. Every time this religion, absolutely different from the rest, appears before man, the other religions unite to try to destroy or hide it again. Primordial Gnosis is the original Gnosis, true Gnosis, eternal Gnosis, Gnostic knowledge in its pure form. Due to multiple persecutions, Primordial Gnosis has been fragmented, distorted and hidden.

Download or read book Applied Biomedical Engineering Using Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Models written by Jorge Garza Ulloa and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Biomedical Engineering Using Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Models focuses on the relationship between three different multidisciplinary branches of engineering: Biomedical Engineering, Cognitive Science and Computer Science through Artificial Intelligence models. These models will be used to study how the nervous system and musculoskeletal system obey movement orders from the brain, as well as the mental processes of the information during cognition when injuries and neurologic diseases are present in the human body. The interaction between these three areas are studied in this book with the objective of obtaining AI models on injuries and neurologic diseases of the human body, studying diseases of the brain, spine and the nerves that connect them with the musculoskeletal system. There are more than 600 diseases of the nervous system, including brain tumors, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and many others. These diseases affect the human cognitive system that sends orders from the central nervous system (CNS) through the peripheral nervous systems (PNS) to do tasks using the musculoskeletal system. These actions can be detected by many Bioinstruments (Biomedical Instruments) and cognitive device data, allowing us to apply AI using Machine Learning-Deep Learning-Cognitive Computing models through algorithms to analyze, detect, classify, and forecast the process of various illnesses, diseases, and injuries of the human body. Applied Biomedical Engineering Using Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Models provides readers with the study of injuries, illness, and neurological diseases of the human body through Artificial Intelligence using Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning (DL) and Cognitive Computing (CC) models based on algorithms developed with MATLAB® and IBM Watson®. Provides an introduction to Cognitive science, cognitive computing and human cognitive relation to help in the solution of AI Biomedical engineering problems Explain different Artificial Intelligence (AI) including evolutionary algorithms to emulate natural evolution, reinforced learning, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) type and cognitive learning and to obtain many AI models for Biomedical Engineering problems Includes coverage of the evolution Artificial Intelligence through Machine Learning (ML), Deep Learning (DL), Cognitive Computing (CC) using MATLAB® as a programming language with many add-on MATLAB® toolboxes, and AI based commercial products cloud services as: IBM (Cognitive Computing, IBM Watson®, IBM Watson Studio®, IBM Watson Studio Visual Recognition®), and others Provides the necessary tools to accelerate obtaining results for the analysis of injuries, illness, and neurologic diseases that can be detected through the static, kinetics and kinematics, and natural body language data and medical imaging techniques applying AI using ML-DL-CC algorithms with the objective of obtaining appropriate conclusions to create solutions that improve the quality of life of patients
Download or read book The New Challenge of Direct Democracy written by Ian Budge and published by Polity. This book was released on 1996-12-09 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Direct democracy involves citizens in discussion and decisions about what the government is to do, rather than leaving this to officials or parliaments. It thus challenges the restrictions placed by representative democracies such as Britain and the United States on political consultation and popular participation. Why should responsible adults not take public decisions as well as making their own individual choices? One affects them just as much as the other. Can ordinary citizens make good public policy though? Many lack education and expertise and may not even be interested in politics. Even without these individual defects, mass debate may by its very nature lead to arbitrary or downright bad decisions. This book confronts these arguments in light of new communication developments which for the first time make direct democracy technically feasible in a mass society. The result is a highly original and innovative account of the possibility of the direct involvement of citizens in the governance of their own affairs.
