Beyond Nature

Animal Liberation, Marxism, and Critical Theory

By: Marco Maurizi

In Beyond Nature Maurizi tackles the animal question from an unprecedented perspective: strongly criticizing the abstract moralism that has always characterized animal rights activism, the author proposes a revolutionary, historical-materialistic analysis of the relationship between humans and non-humans.

Measure and Capacity of Wandering Domains in Gevrey Near-Integrable Exact Symplectic Systems

By: Laurent Lazzarini,Jean-Pierre Marco,David Sauzin

A wandering domain for a diffeomorphism of is an open connected set such that for all . The authors endow with its usual exact symplectic structure. An integrable diffeomorphism, i.e., the time-one map of a Hamiltonian which depends only on the action variables, has no nonempty wandering domains. The aim of this paper is to estimate the size (measure and Gromov capacity) of wandering domains in the case of an exact symplectic perturbation of , in the analytic or Gevrey category. Upper estimates are related to Nekhoroshev theory; lower estimates are related to examples of Arnold diffusion. This is a contribution to the “quantitative Hamiltonian perturbation theory” initiated in previous works on the optimality of long term stability estimates and diffusion times; the emphasis here is on discrete systems because this is the natural setting to study wandering domains.

Magical Practice in the Latin West

Papers from the International Conference held at the University of Zaragoza, 30 Sept. – 1st Oct. 2005

By: Francisco Marco Simón,Richard Gordon

How different was the practice of magic in the Latin West from that of the eastern Mediterranean basin? Was it just derivative from Greek practice, or did it have its own originality? The recent discovery of important new curse-tablets in Mainz and in the Fountain of Anna Perenna at Rome has made the question newly topical. This volume contains the first commented editions in English of most of these new texts as well as major surveys of new prayers for justice. Other sections are devoted to the discourse of magic in the West, to the linguistics and aims of cursing, and to the major field of protective and eudaemonic magic up to and including the Visigothic slates and the Celtic loricae. The essays are by well-known scholars in the field as well as by established and younger Spanish scholars.

Atlas of terrestrial mammals of the Ionian and Aegean islands

By: Marco Masseti

The goal of this book is to foster better knowledge of the mammalian fauna of the Mediterranean islands. The atlas presents the current state of knowledge of the past and present distribution of the non-flying terrestrial mammals of the Ionian and Aegean islands. It provides a distribution map for each species with extensive references and a description of all the mammalian taxa. The book also focuses on the important role of human beings in the redefinition of the insular ecological equilibrium, as well as on the environmental impact of biological invasions. The protection and study of this fauna can provide an opportunity for testing a range of different evolutionary theories.

Geometry and Topology in Hamiltonian Dynamics and Statistical Mechanics

By: Marco Pettini

This book covers a new explanation of the origin of Hamiltonian chaos and its quantitative characterization. The author focuses on two main areas: Riemannian formulation of Hamiltonian dynamics, providing an original viewpoint about the relationship between geodesic instability and curvature properties of the mechanical manifolds; and a topological theory of thermodynamic phase transitions, relating topology changes of microscopic configuration space with the generation of singularities of thermodynamic observables. The book contains numerous illustrations throughout and it will interest both mathematicians and physicists.

Clinical OCT Angiography Atlas

By: Marco Rispoli,Bruno Lumbroso,David Huang,Yali Jia,Maria Cristina Savastano

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a non-invasive technique for imaging the microvasculature of the retina and the choroid. The advent of OCTA has allowed ophthalmologists to identify new pathologies, recognise new syndromes, and organise disorders with new classifications. This atlas provides clinicians with state-of-the-art principles of clinical OCTA imaging, helping them interpret and understand the features of the angiographic images. Following the success of the first edition (9789351528999) published in 2015, this second edition has been fully revised, with all chapters rewritten and new topics added to provide the very latest advances in the field. New knowledge about existing diseases and new disorders are described in depth, and operating principles, clinical applications, and future developments are explained thoroughly by the pioneers of the technology. The first part of the atlas covers the basic principles of OCT angiography, methods and technology, image interpretation, vascular anatomy of the retina, and clinical applications. Part two provides a general update on current research into OCT angiography in various retinal, choroid and anterior chamber disorders. The third and final part of the book describes future clinical applications and implications of next generation devices. This new edition is an invaluable guide for ophthalmologists and trainees for use in everyday practice.

Formae mortis

By: Francisco Marco Simón,Francisco Pina Polo

Este volumen contiene las actas de las ponencias presentadas al IV Coloquio Internacional de Historia Antigua Universidad de Zaragoza, celebrado los días 4 y 5 de junio de 2007. Como las ediciones anteriores, de periodicidad bianual, esta reunión científica ha resultado de la fructífera colaboración entre el Centro para el Estudio de la Interdependencia Provincial en la Antigüedad Clásica (CEIPAC) de la Universidad de Barcelona y el Área de Historia Antigua del Departamento de Ciencias de la Antigüedad de la Universidad de Zaragoza. .El tema escogido para el coloquio que ahora ve la luz fue “Formae Mortis: El tránsito de la vida a la muerte en las sociedades antiguas”. Nuestro objetivo, al invitar a especialistas españoles y extranjeros a llevar a cabo una reflexión conjunta, era ejemplificar las diversas modalidades, intenciones o representaciones de esa transición -esencial como ninguna por suprema e ineluctable- partiendo de un presupuesto metodológico: el de considerar la muerte como un proceso, como un espacio/tiempo de liminalidad, mas que como un suceso.

Viajeros, peregrinos y aventureros en el mundo antiguo

By: Francisco Marco Simón

En su novela El cielo protector, Paul Bowles distingue entre el turista y el viajero. Mientras el turista siempre sabe cuándo y cómo volverá a su hogar, el viajero se lanza a la aventura sin conocer exactamente ni su ruta ni siquiera si algún día regresará a su casa. En el mundo antiguo, el viaje tenía siempre un punto de descubrimiento, un componente intrínseco de aventura motivada por las condiciones de los desplazamientos y, muchas veces, por el desconocimiento de los lugares a los que el viajero pretendía arribar. El viaje en la Antigüedad fue el tema del que se ocupó el V Coloquio Internacional de Historia Antigua Universidad de Zaragoza, que se celebró entre los días 4 y 6 de junio de 2009 en la Biblioteca de Humanidades María Moliner de la Universidad de Zaragoza bajo el título Viajeros, peregrinos y aventureros en el mundo antiguo. En él participaron estudiosos procedentes de diversas universidades y centros de investigación españoles y extranjeros: Münster (Alemania), Ohio (Estados Unidos), Foggia (Italia), CSIC de Roma, Málaga, Vitoria, Salamanca, Madrid, Alcalá de Henares, Barcelona y Zaragoza. Desde diversas perspectivas todos ellos abordaron el tema del viaje y el viajero en la Antigüedad, y este volumen recoge las comunicaciones presentadas durante el coloquio, celebrado como viene siendo habitual con carácter bienal.
