Pope Gabriel

A Counterfactual History

By: Josi M. Sanchez,José Sánchez,Jose M. Sanchez

What would have happened if someone besides Pius XII had been elected Pope in 1939? Featuring actual historical figures, and drawing on documents from this era, Pope Gabriel centers on the election and papacy of Cardinal Vidal i Barraquer of Tarragona, a survivor of the Spanish Civil War. Pope Gabriel describes the new Pontiff's reaction to World War II, his dealings with dictators-Franco, Mussolini, and Hitler-and his confrontation of the Holocaust. In the course of his pontificate, Pope Gabriel discovers that the papal presence is a more powerful weapon than papal encyclicals or statements. He faces down the Falangists in Barcelona, the Fascists in Rome, and the Nazis in Dachau. Finally, on the verge of death from heart problems, he challenges the roundup of the Roman Jews in October 1943. In this counterfactual history, author José M. Sánchez offers a fascinating exploration of papal power and its potential effects on the atrocities of World War II and the Holocaust.

Gromov, Cauchy and Causal Boundaries for Riemannian, Finslerian and Lorentzian Manifolds

By: Jose Luis Flores,J. Herrera,M. Sánchez

Recently, the old notion of causal boundary for a spacetime V has been redefined consistently. The computation of this boundary ∂V on any standard conformally stationary spacetime V=R×M, suggests a natural compactification MB associated to any Riemannian metric on M or, more generally, to any Finslerian one. The corresponding boundary ∂BM is constructed in terms of Busemann-type functions. Roughly, ∂BM represents the set of all the directions in M including both, asymptotic and "finite" (or "incomplete") directions. This Busemann boundary ∂BM is related to two classical boundaries: the Cauchy boundary ∂CM and the Gromov boundary ∂GM. The authors' aims are: (1) to study the subtleties of both, the Cauchy boundary for any generalized (possibly non-symmetric) distance and the Gromov compactification for any (possibly incomplete) Finsler manifold, (2) to introduce the new Busemann compactification MB, relating it with the previous two completions, and (3) to give a full description of the causal boundary ∂V of any standard conformally stationary spacetime. J. L. Flores and J. Herrera, University of Malaga, Spain, and M. Sánchez, University of Granada, Spain. Publisher's note.

Phospholipid Metabolism in Cellular Signaling

By: Jose M. Mato

Phospholipids are no longer considered exclusively as the building blocks of biomembranes, but are now regarded to be exceptionally important to cellular signalling.Another conclusion resulting from studies over the past several years is that no single general scheme for the role of phospholipids during cell activation can be drawn as representative of all cells. This book presents a comprehensive view of the recent advances made in certain major research areas within the field of phospholipid metabolism in cellular signalling. Topics discussed within this volume include lipid composition of cellular membranes and their organization in biological systems, the dynamic aspects of phospholipid metabolism and its regulation by extracellular stimuli, and the role of newly discovered glycosyl-phosphatidylinositols in insulin action . The book also discusses two biologically active phospholipids: the sphingolipids, and ether-linked glycerophospholipids (the platelet activating factor). Phospholipid Metabolism in Cellular Signaling is an important research reference that should be considered required reading by all scientists and graduate students working on cell activation (e.g., growth factors, hormones, and oncogenes).

Recovery and Empowerment of Persons with Severe Mental Disorder

A Narrative Review

By: Ernesto Baena Ruiz,Eric M. J. Morris,Carol Harvey,Jose A. Sanchez Padilla,Juan A. Diaz Garrido,Cristina Abelleira Vidal,Fatima C. Quintana Castellano,Monica Garcia Ortega

This book presents a narrative review of current models of recovery and empowerment on people with severe mental disorders, and the impact of these models and approaches on assistance policies. The authors review conceptual frameworks, research findings, key predictors of recovery and empowerment, evaluation instruments and criteria, and user and families' perspectives on recovery and empowerment. Contemporary ideas of recovery, often referred to as personal recovery, emerged in the USA in the 1970s and 1980s through first person accounts of the lived experience of mental health problems and through accompanying consumer and human rights movements. However, the origins of the recovery movement in mental health can be traced back over several hundred years. The books describes many of these historical influences and the roots of today's approaches to recovery. It also provides a detailed discussion of the concept of, and approach to, empowerment. Whilst acknowledging the diverse definitions of recovery and the associated challenges of its meaningful measurement, the authors also aim to engage with the concept of recovery. Many studies of recovery are helpfully brought together here for the reader, but personal recovery, as a process and outcome, should be much more central to mental health research. A diverse audience of mental health professionals, teachers, students, and researchers, will find this a valuable reference source.

Presidential Primaries in Puerto Rico

By: Juan Jose Nolla-Acosta,Elizabeth Silen-Afanador

Puerto Rico, like all the other US Territories, has a very limited participation in the process to elect the President. Both major parties have given Puerto Rico some delegates at their national convention. This book concentrates on the experience Puerto Rico has had on the nominating processes of both parties, particularly since 1980, when it began having presidential primaries. Unfortunately, once the primary season ends, Puerto Rico, like the rest of the territories, go back to be totally ignored by the presidential candidates. That's because the American citizens who live in Puerto Rico and the territories don't count at all in the general election. This unfair situation must change. The solution for this problem, in the case of Puerto Rico, is full admission into the union as a state. Puerto Rico has already voted twice in favor of becoming a state, in 2012 and 2017. It's time for Congress to act and grant the US citizens the political equality they have voted for.

Organocatalytic Enantioselective Conjugate Addition Reactions

A Powerful Tool for the Stereocontrolled Synthesis of Complex Molecules

By: Jose L Vicario,Dolores Badia,Luisa Carrillo,Efraim Reyes

This book, unique in its field, is a comprehensive description of all the methodologies reported for carrying out conjugate addition reactions in a stereoselective way, using small chiral organic molecules as catalysts (organocatalysts). In the last 3-4 years, this has been a rapidly growing field in organic chemistry, and many papers have appeared reporting excellent protocols for carrying out these highly efficient transformations that compete well with other classical approaches using transition metal catalysts. A particularly attractive feature of this transformation relies upon the fact that the conjugate addition (Michael and Hetero-Michael reactions) is an extraordinarily effective means to initiate cascade processes which result in the formation of complex molecules from very small and simple starting blocks. The book, written by noted experts, covers all recent advances in this hot topic, and provides a good state-of-the-art review for organic chemists working in this field and all those who wish to start projects in this area.

Weighted Bergman Spaces Induced by Rapidly Increasing Weights

By: Jose Angel Pelaez,Jouni Rattya

This monograph is devoted to the study of the weighted Bergman space $A^p_\omega$ of the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ that is induced by a radial continuous weight $\omega$ satisfying $\lim_{r\to 1^-}\frac{\int_r^1\omega(s)\,ds}{\omega(r)(1-r)}=\infty.$ Every such $A^p_\omega$ lies between the Hardy space $H^p$ and every classical weighted Bergman space $A^p_\alpha$. Even if it is well known that $H^p$ is the limit of $A^p_\alpha$, as $\alpha\to-1$, in many respects, it is shown that $A^p_\omega$ lies ``closer'' to $H^p$ than any $A^p_\alpha$, and that several finer function-theoretic properties of $A^p_\alpha$ do not carry over to $A^p_\omega$.

Introduction to Spectropolarimetry

By: Jose Carlos del Toro Iniesta

Spectropolarimetry embraces the most complete and detailed measurement and analysis of light, as well as its interaction with matter. This book provides an introductory overview of the area, which plays an increasingly important role in modern solar observations. Chapters include a comprehensive description of the polarization state of polychromatic light and its measurement, an overview of astronomical (solar) polarimetry, the radiative transfer equation for polarized light, and the formation of spectral lines in the presence of a magnetic field. Most topics are dealt with within the realm of classical physics, although a small amount of quantum mechanics is introduced where necessary. This text will be a valuable reference for graduates and researchers in astrophysics, solar physics and optics.
