Books on the topic 'Design per componenti'

The contributions presented at the study day held in Empoli in May 2006 – now collected in book form – are intended to provide a contribution to the debate on the relations between the teaching of history of architecture, design and historiography. Each essay addresses a specific issue, proposing an analysis and valorisation of the sources (documents, images, diaries etc.) and the resources available for research, representation and design. Taken as a whole, the collective work aims at defining a history of architecture focused on a knowledge and understanding of how, at different times and in different places, man has interacted with the geographical or environmental context to organise the physical space. A history of architecture in seamless relation with that of the city and the territory. A history of architecture that posits itself as an essential component in the design culture of architects and town planners, fostering a mode of intervention generated by a profound knowledge of the complex realities in which it takes shape.

This book provides an update on heterocyclic compounds that serve as key components of anti-cancer agents administered in pre-clinical settings. Many of the compounds highlighted in the book are being actively investigated for the bioactive properties against a range of cancer cell lines. There is potential for heterocyclic compounds to design agents that can target specific molecules to treat different types of cancers. Chapters are contributed by experts in pharmaceutical chemistry and are written to give a general overview of the topic to readers involved in all levels of research and decision-making in pharmaceutical chemistry and anti-cancer drug design. Part 1 of the book set covers these topics: - Heterocyclic anticancer compounds derived from natural sources with their mechanism of action - The role of terpenoids as anticancer compounds: an insight into prevention and treatment - Recent advances in synthesis and anticancer activity of benzothiazole hybrids as anticancer agents - Structure-activity relationship studies of novel hybrid quinoline and quinolone derivatives as anticancer agents - Tetrazoles: structure and activity relationship as anticancer agents - Progress in nitrogen and oxygen-based heterocyclic compounds for their anticancer activity: an update (2017-2020)

Cardiac catheterization and coronary angiography are both key components to routine cardiology practice. This new edition of Cardiac Catheterization and Coronary Intervention has been fully updated since the first edition, with new sections on primary percutaneous coronary intervention, trends in vascular access, bioabsorbable stents, optical coherence tomography, and more. Filled with over 150 clinical images and schematic illustrations, the handbook is an accessible ‘how-to’ guide, designed to demystify complex cardiac catheterization investigations. Expanded to reflect developments in practice, this new edition also introduces a new chapter on the multidisciplinary team and their roles and responsibilities from pre- to post-procedural care and relevant training requirements. It contains detailed instructions on how to perform a comprehensive left and right heart catheterization procedure, choosing the correct catheter for coronary and graft angiography, and how to perform a diagnostic coronary angiogram and interpret the subsequent findings.

This chapter examines the components of a typical investment arbitration hearing as well as various procedural issues that arise in the context of the hearing. Hearings often present the best opportunity to test the evidence and arguments presented by the parties over the course of an arbitration. It is therefore important to give both parties an equal and adequate opportunity to present their case at the hearing. Yet, there is a desire to conduct the hearing in an efficient manner. The goal in adopting hearing procedures is to strike a balance between these considerations. The chapter first considers how parties and the tribunal will want to plan for the hearing at the outset. It then discusses the pre-hearing procedures and the hearing itself, taking into account the order of proceedings, cases where witnesses/experts are unavailable to testify in person, transcription of proceedings, and transparency and confidentiality of the hearing.

Since the first edition of this book appeared (2000), there has been a spectacular development in the use of calorimeters for measuring natural phenomena, such as the detection of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays, or neutrinos from sources such as the Sun, the Earth’s atmosphere, or the Universe at large. This development is documentsed in this chapter. It starts with a section on SuperKamiokande, which has already collected two Nobel prizes, and its envisaged successor HyperKamiokande, which is designed to be sensitive to neutrinos from supernova explosions in the Andromeda galaxy. On an even larger scale, several sections of the Mediterranean sea as well a cubic kilometre of ice under the South Pole are looking for neutrinos from outer space, and are detecting other interesting phenomena as well. The Earth’s atmosphere is used as a huge calorimeter by experiments such as Auger and KASKADE-Grande. Combined with dedicated Cherenkov telescopes, such as HESS, these experiments have provided important new insights in mysterious aspects of the high-energy component of the cosmic rays that bombard our planet, such as the knees in the PeV-EeV region and the GZK cutoff.

Abstract There is a growing need for integration of behavioral health providers within medical settings to address mental health concerns of expectant parents, high-risk infants and families, and the frontline medical staff who care for them. This book is designed to be a comprehensive, practical resource for providers working in perinatal and neonatal intensive care settings inclusive of fetal care centers, neonatal intensive care settings, and neonatal follow-up clinics. Contributors are leading experts in various aspects of care for expectant parents, infants, and their families, with backgrounds in medicine, psychology, social work, nursing, and parenting high-risk infants. The book is divided into five sections. Each section provides setting-specific information critical to behavioral health care practice, including an overview of common medical conditions and treatments, roles and activities of integrated health providers, and specific behavioral health issues pertaining to the setting. Case examples are presented throughout to highlight important concepts and application of clinical practice. Section I provides a broad overview of roles and practice issues, including the history of psychological services for high-risk infants, operational considerations, and systems-level approaches to improving care. Section II explores symptom presentation, risk assessment and treatment approaches for perinatal and infant mental health concerns, as well as strategies to support families (e.g., breastfeeding, decision-making, and peer support programs). Sections III–V address key components for clinicians within fetal care settings, neonatal intensive care settings, and neonatal follow-up settings, including an overview of common medical conditions and treatments, activities of integrated health providers, and multidisciplinary collaboration strategies to care for the unique needs of high-risk infants and families.

Sin duda alguna, presentar un libro es un reto, más aún en un tema tan amplio y complejo como es el derecho comercial. No obstante, cuando se nos propuso acometer una tarea de tal magnitud, la aceptamos por esa inclinación que nos conduce a los seres humanos a buscar, investigar, indagar y, esencialmente, a conocer. Desde luego, en aquel momento no podíamos saber a profundidad lo interesante o no que podría resultar la obra que teníamos en las manos y, por tanto, lo que nos impresionaba era su título, la denominación de los capítulos que lo integraban y, principalmente, la trayectoria de sus autores que, de antemano, nos llevaban a presagiar la rigurosidad con la que se acercarían a los temas abordados. Sin más y entendiendo que presentar es dar a conocer algo al público, comenzaremos reflexionando sobre la pertinencia de su título, intentando esclarecer si este refleja su contenido o sólo es una manera de llamar la atención de los lectores. “Estudios contemporáneos de derecho mercantil”, nombre con el cual los coordinadores y los autores decidieron designar la obra, sugiere primordialmente dos cuestiones: la primera se refiere a la categoría de “Estudios”, indicativa en que cada uno de los capítulos que lo integran es el resultado de un trabajo que implicó conocimiento, análisis y, en especial, la comprensión de uno o más problemas para ofrecer respecto a ellos posibles soluciones, ejercitando el entendimiento individual y, a su vez, moviendo la frontera del conocimiento de la ciencia jurídica. La segunda categoría sugiere al lector que los objetos de investigación sobre los cuales se basa el libro se relacionan con temas propios de la actualidad y que, por lo tanto, indagar ellos es importante por cuanto ayuda a la construcción de soluciones a retos que enfrenta la sociedad. Después de haber leído cada uno de los capítulos que componen el libro, podemos afirmar que su título hace justicia, con los objetivos que los doce autores se trazaron, resaltando que, a diferencia de muchos textos del derecho privado, en él se encuentran verdaderos frutos del intelecto y no simplemente un compendio de normativa comentada, por lo cual los lectores podremos observar con rapidez que, sin abandonar las fuentes del derecho, los once estudios presentados rebasan visiblemente la fase descriptiva, logrando situarse en un escenario superior, en el que a partir de preguntas, se sugieren posibles respuestas y, posteriormente, logra corroborarse la hipótesis planteada, es decir, se muestran como auténticos resultados de investigación. Ahora, respecto a la actualidad de los estudios o mejor a su contemporaneidad, cada una de las preguntas planteadas que orientaron las investigaciones, se refieren a temáticas del derecho que están en boga y cuyo aporte a su discusión son de interés para la sociedad, como escenario en el que nacen y se tejen las relaciones entre las personas y que a su vez son reguladas por la normatividad, resultando así de importancia tanto para los estudiantes como para los investigadores, litigantes, jueces e incluso para el ciudadano no relacionado profesionalmente con la ciencia jurídica. Para profundizar un poco en las características intrínsecas del libro, aceptando que presentar también implica hacer referencia a las cualidades de algo o alguien, quisiéramos manifestar por qué la lectura de las páginas que integran el libro resultan de importancia para los grupos a los que se hizo referencia. El derecho mercantil es un área dentro de la ciencia jurídica que, como consecuencia de la clasificación del derecho, en público y privado, parece ajena al diario vivir de las personas y de sus derechos, llegando al punto de que, un ciudadano no instruido en las Facultades de Derecho podría considerarse ajeno a sus disposiciones. Pese a ello, una de las principales cualidades del texto es la comprensión del derecho mercantil como una disciplina en la que el protagonista no es únicamente el empresario, como por lo general suele afirmarse, sino el consumidor, sin que con ello se desconozca que hoy se habla de la existencia del derecho del consumo o del consumidor. Dicha comprensión del derecho mercantil comprende que el empresario o comerciante ejecuta todos sus actos, celebra contratos, se asocia y contrae obligaciones, con el objetivo de organizar, ejecutar su actividad comercial para atraer consumidores que pueden ser, personas naturales o jurídicas, comerciantes y no comerciantes, por lo cual esta disciplina jurídica no puede ser ajena a la regulación que frente al consumidor se expida. Teniendo dicho faro como norte, uno de los capítulos que contiene la presente obra es el escrito por Iván Darío Taborda que con suma contundencia evidencia la necesidad de reglamentar la responsabilidad por servicio defectuoso. Una de las virtudes del mencionado capítulo es la de tomar las disposiciones que regulan el tema, analizarlas meticulosamente, revisar su aplicación y, finalmente, detectar la anomia que existe frente al servicio defectuoso en Colombia. Es de resaltar que, además de retomar las fuentes del ordenamiento nacional, el jurista revisa cómo la Ley ha organizado el objeto de investigación en otros sistemas jurídicos. Además, el capítulo le será sumamente valioso al estudiante, pues ejemplifica el problema, con lo cual se atiende a una de las necesidades que el científico Rodolfo Llinás considera imprescindibles a la hora de enseñar, esto es, logra darles contexto a los conceptos que analiza1, dejando así al abogado en formación en capacidad de recrear el problema y darle posibles soluciones, animando el espíritu propositivo y reflexivo al permitir contradecir o apartarse de la conclusión a la cual el autor arriba.
