Num momento em que a Sociedade de Informação apela à reformulação de vários conceitos, entre os quais os de comunidade e de educação, nós decidimos interligá-los neste estudo uma vez que os nossos atuais alunos nasceram e desenvolvem-se segundo as mesmas premissas que, segundo Lévy, orientam o crescimento inicial do ciberespaço: a interligação, a criação de comunidades e a inteligência coletiva. A análise teórica deste estudo está assente em d...

These evocative and complexly intriguing poems suggest a variety of modern issues. Combining the real with the imaginary, the logical with the intuitive, the mystical and the mythical, and both oral and written traditions, they bring together different geographical, temporal, and cultural spaces to explore spiritual alienation and the nature of being, and the power of language both to liberate and to oppress. Wearing glasses of water . . . re...

Economic development and social welfare depend on the existence of effective and efficient infrastructure systems, particularly in health, energy, transportation and water, many of which are developed and managed through Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs). However, empirical evidence suggests some pitfalls in the use of these PPP arrangements. This book addresses these issues, focusing on mostly three key questions: How to improve the robustne...

The purpose of this work is to enhance understanding and the overall learning experience in OB, and ultimately, to help shape a more conscious workforce of people who have what it takes to succeed during uncertain times despite the ebb and flow of the market.

Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is based on a set of ideas and theorems quite distinct from those governing  ground-state DFT, but emphasizing similar techniques. Today, the use of TDDFT is rapidly growing in many areas of physics, chemistry and materials sciences where direct solution of the Schrödinger equation is too demanding. This is the first comprehensive, textbook-style introduction to the relevant basics and techniques.

This book tells the true story about a young man that decided he was going to beat the moral system of Law. This system included parents, schools, civil authority and religion. Since he was a child, he wanted to do it his way. Feeling rejected because of his low self esteem, his mother's drug problem and the lack of attention he received from his father, he started using drugs and drinking at a very early age. He cared nothing for religion and...

The incantation you find in this surprising collection is multifaceted and complex: the intimate personal, the familial and the local appear effortlessly intertwined with the collective socio-political, the mystical, the mythical, the religious, the ecological, the tribal and the cosmic. The often obvious references to specific countries like Portugal, Canada or South Africa transit into countless other locales, memories and contexts, real or ...

This exploration of class, feminism, and cultural identity focuses on the work of four writers: Mia Couto, Jose Saramago, Clarice Lispector and J.M. Coetzee. It argues that these writers are political in the sense that they bring to the forefront issues pertaining to the power of literature to represent, misrepresent, and debate matter related to different subaltern subjects: the postcolonial subject, the poor subject, and the female subject.

There have been many significant advances in time-dependent density functional theory over recent years, both in enlightening the fundamental theoretical basis of the theory, as well as in computational algorithms and applications. This book, as successor to the highly successful volume Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (Lect. Notes Phys. 706, 2006) brings together for the first time all recent developments in a systematic and coherent ...

... a significant contribution to the vast and rich international literature on abolitionism, its causes and consequences, main events and historical processes. Well-informed and up-to-date in relation to the most pressing debates on the abolition of slave trade, ...the study provides a much-needed counterpoint (and counterbalance) to an Anglocentric leaning that overwhelmingly dominates this field of studies." · e-Journal of Portuguese Histor...
