El farmacéutico y autor de este libro D. Alberto Hermosa Hernández, Titular de Farmacia Lisboa en Ciudad Rodrigo, es un experimentado farmacéutico con una destacada trayectoria, también es un reconocido experto universitario en Ortopedia, y a traves de este libro ofrece a los lectores una perspectiva unica sobre el papel activo de los farmaceuticos en esta especialidad tan necesaria. Si bien es cierto que los problemas ortopedicos suelen asociarse con el envejecimiento y afectan de manera significativa a los adultos mayores, es importante destacar que cualquier persona, en cualquier etapa de la vida, puede requerir algun tipo de elemento ortopedico en algun momento.Desde su experiencia en la Farmacia Comunitaria, el autor refl eja en este libro las mas relevantes tecnicas ortopedicas que se suelen tratar en las farmacias comunitarias, destacando el relevante papel de los farmaceuticos como pro-motores de la salud y vigilantes de la adherencia del paciente. Mas alla de ser dispensadores de medicamentos, los farmaceuticos asumen la responsabilidad tambien, cuando la farmacia decide especializarse en ortopedia, de garantizar el uso correcto de elementos ortopedicos, adaptados a las necesidades individuales de cada paciente.Con un enfoque tecnico y personal, este libro proporciona a los lectores amplios conocimientos sobre los diversos problemas de salud que enfrentan los ciudadanos, demostrando como los farmaceuticos pueden marcar la diferencia en la vida de las personas mediante una atencion integral y personalizada cuando requieren no solo asistencia en los medicamentos que les han prescrito, tambien cuando se hace preciso el uso de algun elemento de ortopedia de manera pro-visional o permanente.

Los procesos de datificación, digitalización y automatización atraviesan hoy muy distintos ámbitos de la existencia: desde procedimientos jurídicos hasta la distribución de la energía, desde el transporte internacional hasta las relaciones con los afectos mas intimos, incluso con el propio cuerpo.Los textos reunidos aqui reflexionan sobre los riesgos y las posibilidades emancipatorias de la inteligencia artificial y otras nuevas tecnologias a partir de cuestionar dos ideas dominantes: la division entre naturaleza y cultura y la centralidad de lo humano. Dejar de lado estas dos imagenes implica explorar la relacion entre lo tecnologico y lo viviente, interrogarse por los efectos de verdad de la razon algoritimica y comprender el significado de habitar ambientes activos completamente integrados con tecnologias computacionales.Este volumen discute temas como la relacion entre las personas y los objetos tecnicos, la planificacion y gestion de la computacion, la plasticidad neuronal, los intercambios automatizados, la manipulacion genetica, las artes mediales, las transformaciones de escala geologica y planetaria y, sustancialmente, el imaginario de humanidad que se conforma en esta epoca.

La causa improbable aborda un componente clave de todo sistema de seguridad: la investigación y el análisis de accidentes. Daniel Mauriño y Juan Mangiameli, dos autoridades en el campo, recorren didácticamente mas de cien años de historia a partir del estudio de catastrofes aereas. Explican por que es necesario pasar de una perspectiva orientada hacia una unica causa probable, predominante cuando el transporte aereo requeria fortalecer el aparato tecnico, a un analisis multicausal, donde encontrar "la" causa es altamente improbable, y en cambio se requiere estudiar las complejidades del sistema sociotecnico. En este ameno recorrido por los paradigmas analiticos y sus enseñanzas, el modo aerocomercial es el gran protagonista, pero las lecciones que de el podemos extraer tienen sin duda aplicacion en otras formas de transporte y movilidad. Los autores escriben no solo para lectores apasionados por la aviacion, sino tambien para profesionales y directivos del transporte, para academicos, investigadores y para responsables de politicas de seguridad en organizaciones publicas y privadas.

Our prehistoric ancestors used flint tools every day; they were of vital importance for cutting and scraping, used for hunting, preparing food, making clothing and building shelters, and their remnants are scattered around the countryside.Unearthing such a find is a magical moment a direct link to events thousands of years before but how do you identify the piece of flint you find out in the field? Is it only a lump of flint, or did it really have an important function as a tool prized by our ancestors? And how old is it, exactly?In Flint Tools Field Guide, archaeologist and flint knapper Robert Turner opens a window into prehistoric archaeology, using hand-drawn illustrations and photographs to explain how to identify tools and their uses, as well as approximate their age. This is an important insight into how people lived and worked so many years ago.
