O livro é estruturado em quatro partes - ´Fundamentos´, ‘Materiais estruturais´, ´Materiais eletrônicos, ópticos e magnéticos ’´e ´Materiais em projetos de engenharia´.ISBN 10: 8576051605ISBN 13: 9788576051602
Cinco Licoes Sobre ImperioOrganizado a partir de cinco aulas ministradas por Antonio Negri no Instituto de Sociologia da Universidade de Cosenza em 2002, este livro ressalta elementos da metodologia de pesquisa que resultou em Império, escrito em co-autoria com Michael Hardt. No percurso crítico e lúcido de suas análises, o autor aprofunda-se aqui em alguns aspectos do que ele denomina Império, como seu caráter monárquico, ”particularmente evidente sobretudo em tempos de conflito militar, quando [...] o Pentágono domina o mundo com suas armas atômicas e sua tecnologia militar superior. Também algumas instituições econômicas supranacionais, como a OMC, o Banco Mundial e o FMI, exercem, por vezes, um governo monárquico dos negócios globais“. No embate entre a multidão e o Império, Negri confia, esperançoso em uma sociedade melhor em todos os sentidos, na força dos militantes dos movimentos globais: ”São muito mais inteligentes e capazes do que nós, quando éramos pequenos”.ISBN 10: 8574902675ISBN 13: 9788574902678

Cold War 2.0: Artificial Intelligence in the New Battle between China, Russia, and AmericaA vivid, thoughtful examination of how technological innovation—especially AI—is shaping the tensions between democracy and autocracy during the new Cold War.So much of what we hear about China and Russia today likens the relationship between these two autocracies and the West to a “rivalry” or a “great-power competition.” Some might consider it alarmist to say we are in the midst of a second Cold War, but that may be the only responsible way to describe today’s state of affairs.What’s more, we have come a long way from Mao Zedong’s infamous observation that “political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” Now we live in an age more aptly described by Vladimir Putin’s cryptic prophecy that “artificial intelligence is the future not only of Russia, but of all mankind, and whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become ruler of the world.”George S. Takach’s incisive and meticulously researched new volume, Cold War 2.0, is the book we need to thoroughly understand these frightening and perilous times. In the geopolitical sphere, there are no more pressing issues than the appalling mechanizations of a surveillance state in China, Russia’s brazen attempt to assert its autocratic model in Ukraine, and China’s increasingly likely plans to do the same in Taiwan.But the key here, Takach argues, is that our new Cold War is not only ideological but technological: the side that prevails in Cold War 2.0 will be the one that bests the other in mastering the greatest innovations of our time. Artificial intelligence sits in our pockets every day—but what about AI that coordinates military operations and missile defense systems? Or the highly sophisticated semiconductor chips and quantum computers that power those missiles and a host of other weapons? And, where recently we have seen remarkable feats of bio-engineering to produce vaccines at record speed, shouldn’t we be concerned how catastrophic it would be if bio-engineering were co-opted for nefarious purposes?Takach thoroughly examines how each of these innovations will shape the tension between democracy and autocracy, and how each will play a central role in this second Cold War. Finally, he crafts a precise blueprint for how Western democracies should handle these innovations to respond to the looming threat of autocracy—and ultimately prevail over it.ISBN 10: 163936563XISBN 13: 9781639365630

Conceptual Profiles: A Theory of Teaching and Learning Scientific Concepts -Contemporary Trends and Issues in Science EducationThe language of science has many words and phrases whose meaning either changes in differing contexts or alters to reflect developments in a given discipline. This book presents the authors’ theories on using ‘conceptual profiles’ to make the teaching of context-dependent meanings more effective. Developed over two decades, their theory begins with a recognition of the coexistence in the students’ discourse of those alternative meanings, even in the case of scientific concepts such as molecule, where the dissonance between the classical and modern views of the same phenomenon is an accepted norm. What began as an alternative model of conceptual change has evolved to incorporate a sociocultural approach, by drawing on ideas such as situated cognition and Vygotsky’s influential concept of culturally located learning. Also informed by pragmatist philosophy, the approach has grown into a well-rounded theory of teaching and learning scientific concepts. The authors have taken the opportunity in this book to develop their ideas further, anticipate and respond to criticisms-that of relativism, for example-and explain how their theory can be applied to analyze the teaching of core concepts in science such as heat and temperature, life and biological adaptation. They also report on the implementation of a research program that correlates the responsiveness of their methodology to all the main developments in the field of science education. This additional material will inform academic discussion, review, and further enhancement of their theory and research model.ISBN 10: 9048192455ISBN 13: 9789048192458
