Written in the late 18th century, this seminal work employs a clear, persuasive style, integrating personal anecdotes and philosophical reasoning. Within the socio-political context of emerging feminist thought, Wollstonecraft challenges the prevailing views of her time, insisting that rigorous education is not only a right for women but essential for the moral and intellectual development necessary for societys progress. Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) was a trailblazing writer, philosopher, and advocate for womens rights whose own experiences as a governess and the challenges she faced in a male-dominated society deeply informed her work. Her exposure to Enlightenment ideals of reason and equality, along with the limitations imposed on women, fueled her passion for reforming education. Wollstonecrafts commitment to social justice and her belief in womens potential as rational beings shaped her arguments in this influential text. "Thoughts on the Education of Daughters" is an essential read for anyone interested in the foundations of feminist thought and education. It remains relevant today, shedding light on the continuing dialogue regarding gender equality and educational reform.

The friendship of young students begins in the late 1970s at the Computer Science faculty and would unite them for life. But the reality outside academic life had no playful contours. In the voids left by the obsolescence of old technologies, new tax regulations, new communication protocols with the financial market, clients, and suppliers, plus the constant evolutions of compliance rules, lies the epicenter of creativity for brilliant minds, albeit for malevolent purposes. Emanuel and Paulo had to assess and resolve these challenges. It was during this assessment that Paulo discovered a sophisticated capital diversion scheme. The sophistication was based on new technologies and the vacuum of obsolete management systems, weak compliance rules, and, above all, administrators of dubious character. Besides architecture, the scheme s main merit was the non-traceability of actions and money. But for Emanuel, there were two problems to be solved, because due to his discovery, Paulo s life was cut short. It was a perfect plan in its conception and execution. Again, they left no trace. Limited by his ethical, moral, and religious convictions, Emanuel sought help from an old friend. Both used all their knowledge and experience so that: The Truth Always Come Out
