La p?cima del amor eterno e inmodificable es un sue?o de los hombres que, por supuesto, nunca form? parte de la realidad. Es decir, que cada uno debe trabajar de manera ardua, aguzar su ingenio y fortalecer sus ganas de mejorar y de avanzar en el v?nculo, con el fin de lograr que su amor sea «para toda la vida»… o, por lo menos, que dure toda la vida que tenga ese v?nculo amoroso. La pasi?n constituye un aditamento imprescindible de la pareja, y con frecuencia se debilita antes que el amor propiamente dicho, entonces, se transforma en una raz?n valedera para que dos personas decidan separarse. Por eso, es importante protegerla y revitalizarla, pues es el combustible esencial para que la uni?n funcione y no tenga fecha de vencimiento. Ser apasionados no s?lo implica dejar la cama en llamas, tambi?n significa abordar con entusiasmo y energ?a las actividades que involucran a la pareja y que la renuevan en forma constante. Una comida deliciosa, un paseo original, una charla profunda y, por supuesto, tambi?n un encuentro sexual planeado e intenso son ?nicamente algunas de las iniciativas que avivan el fuego de la pasi?n y no dejan que se apague. No es preciso gastar dinero, no se trata de ideas dif?ciles de concretar ni de tareas que insuman mucho tiempo; en la mayor?a de los casos, son iniciativas comunes, pero que se realizan con una «inspiraci?n» distinta, por as? decirlo. No es lo mismo cocinar algo rico sin el objetivo de seducir al otro, que hacerlo con el firme prop?sito de subyugar al amante. Ese es el esp?ritu de este libro: transformar la vida cotidiana de la pareja en una experiencia enriquecedora y divertida que combata el aburrimiento y encuentre, en el momento menos esperado, un motivo para revivir la pasi?n y disfrutar de la intimidad de a dos. Aqu? encontrar?s explicaciones, consejos, ejercicios, ideas y secretos para practicar con tu pareja e incentivar ese amor, que es fuerte pero est? dormido. A cualquier edad, y en cualquier fase amorosa, es posible sufrir la falta de voltaje pasional, pero tambi?n en todos los casos se pueden revertir estas circunstancias. S?lo hace falta tener ganas y apostar por el amor.
Aclaraciones preliminares Este libro no pretende ser inocente ni desconocer que, en los tiempos actuales, los modos del amor han cambiado. Quiz?, ya no es tan frecuente que una persona conozca al que cree que es su amor, se case con ?l, forme una familia y viva toda la vida con la misma persona. Las relaciones humanas y, en especial, las que se vinculan con el enamoramiento, presentan una complejidad tal que alguien que vive el inicio de su amor en la madurez atravesar? de todos modos las mismas fases que un veintea?ero. Es posible ingresar a la adultez y seguir manteniendo una relaci?n casi adolescente, con reticencia al compromiso y conductas inmaduras incre?bles.

La suma de todos los esfuerzos, colaboraci?n, en los eslabones de producci?n, que aportan valor al producto a partir de alg?n cambio, valor, ser? lo que llamaremos cadena de suministro agroalimentaria. De ese modo, seg?n el sistema de producci?n, hay quienes aportan elementos base que inician con el proceso de producci?n, transformaci?n del producto, distribuci?n / comercializaci?n hasta llegar al consumidor final. La cadena de suministro agroalimentario se determina por tres factores: el entorno alimentario y el comportamiento de los consumidores, as? como el acceso y disposici?n de alimentos sanos. En el ?mbito cient?fico, los problemas que aquejan las cadenas de suministro se han abordado de manera extensa; desde el dise?o, gesti?n, optimizaci?n y redise?o. Las cadenas m?s estudiadas son principalmente las cadenas de suministro globales y las de alto super?vit. En contraste, las cadenas de suministro de productos agroalimentarios son temas poco abordados, principalmente aquellas que tienen como elementos a micro, peque?os y/o medianos productores. As?, se analizan las problem?ticas que afectan a las cadenas de suministro de productos agroalimentarios y de las formas, perspectivas y t?cnicas, que los investigadores han utilizado o desarrollado para abordar dichas problem?ticas. Se revisa tambi?n las problem?ticas actuales del sector agr?cola en M?xico, observando a las familias que constituyen la agricultura rural. Las formas en que participan son muy amplias pues se pueden involucrar en actividades de siembra, mantenimiento y/o cosecha apoyando a sus padres, ingresar como peones a compa??as agr?colas formales o combinar ambas opciones seg?n sea la ?poca.

Surgida de la crisis econ?mica y los movimientos sociales del siglo XXI, la novela de cr?menes espa?ola socava la presunta contundencia del capitalismo como discurso totalizante. Con base en la teor?a de la anomia positiva y la lucha de clases, Gustavo Forero Quintero verifica esta premisa en las novelas Black, black, black de Marta Sanz, Ajuste de cuentas de Benjam?n Prado, Con todo el odio de nuestro coraz?n de Fernando C?mara, El hombre que mat? a Durruti de Pedro de Paz, P?lvora negra de Roberto Montero Gonz?lez, La tiran?a del esp?ritu: o Las cinco muertes del bar?n airado de Jorge Navarro P?rez y Cabaret Pompeya de Andreu Mart?n. La acci?n de «seres inofensivos» con que el autor explica la primera novela, la ?tica del escritor de la segunda o la «furia de los decentes» con que se comprende la tercera se suman a la evaluaci?n cr?tica del homenaje a Buenaventura Durruti y del perfil literario del anarquista Mateo Morral de Montero, as? como del ascenso de un grupo social en la obra de Navarro y la vigencia del anarquismo en la contemporaneidad reflejada en la novela de Mart?n. Capitalismo, crisis y anarquismo en la novela de cr?menes del siglo XXI en Espa?a es producto de la tercera etapa del proyecto de investigaci?n «La anomia en la novela de cr?menes» financiado por la Universidad de Antioquia. La primera se dedic? a Colombia (2012) y la segunda, a Am?rica Latina (2017). Para el autor, la ausencia de normas o su falta de aplicaci?n describe buena parte de los sistemas occidentales y el hecho se recrea significativamente en la novela de cr?menes de los ?ltimos a?os.

Introducing a groundbreaking companion book to a bestselling reliability text Reliability is one of the most important characteristics defining the quality of a product or system, both for the manufacturer and the purchaser. One achieves high reliability through careful monitoring of design, materials and other input, production, quality assurance efforts, ongoing maintenance, and a variety of related decisions and activities. All of these factors must be considered in determining the costs of production, purchase, and ownership of a product. Case Studies in Reliability and Maintenance serves as a valuable addition to the current literature on the subject of reliability by bridging the gap between theory and application. Conceived during the preparation of the editors' earlier work, Reliability: Modeling, Prediction, and Optimization (Wiley, 2000), this new volume features twenty-six actual case studies written by top experts in their fields, each illustrating exactly how reliability models are applied. A valuable companion book to Reliability: Modeling, Prediction, and Optimization, or any other textbook on the subject, the book features: Case studies from fields such as aerospace, automotive, mining, electronics, power plants, dikes, computer software, weapons, photocopiers, industrial furnaces, granite building cladding, chemistry, and aircraft engines A logical organization according to the life cycle of a product or system A unified format of discussion enhanced by tools, techniques, and models for drawing one's own conclusions Pertinent exercises for reinforcement of ideas Of equal value to both students of reliability theory as well as professionals in industry, Case Studies in Reliability and Maintenance should be required reading for anyone seeking to understand how reliability and maintenance issues can be addressed and resolved in the real world.

Causality in a Social World introduces innovative new statistical research and strategies for investigating moderated intervention effects, mediated intervention effects, and spill-over effects using experimental or quasi-experimental data. The book uses potential outcomes to define causal effects, explains and evaluates identification assumptions using application examples, and compares innovative statistical strategies with conventional analysis methods. Whilst highlighting the crucial role of good research design and the evaluation of assumptions required for identifying causal effects in the context of each application, the author demonstrates that improved statistical procedures will greatly enhance the empirical study of causal relationship theory. Applications focus on interventions designed to improve outcomes for participants who are embedded in social settings, including families, classrooms, schools, neighbourhoods, and workplaces.

This book is an essential guide and support to understanding of the science and policy, procedure and practice that underpins the REACH risk assessments required for the use and placing on the market of chemicals in the European Union. A clear understanding of information provision and how this affects the assessment of chemical safety is fundamentally important to the success of policy on chemicals and ultimately to the sustainability of the chemicals industry. Within the book, the scientific processes that underpin the policy are explained in a practical way. Importantly, it includes coverage of techniques to help solve the problems of using potentially risky and hazardous chemicals through the use of less hazardous alternatives and ‘green chemistry’, and also the analysis of the risks of the use of the most hazardous substances against the social and economic benefits of use. Chemical Risk Assessment: A Manual for REACH covers the following main themes: i) Assessment of chemical risk; ii) Risk management; iii) Hazard reduction, substitution and green chemistry; iv) Risk versus benefit – socio-economic analysis. The book acts as a practical guide and overview to chemicals risk assessment and risk management (in the EU context), as well as a support text for planning for the challenges of the future, which will see ever-increasing pressure to withdraw hazardous substances from the EU (and global) market, balanced against opportunities for innovation in the development of less hazardous chemicals.

This book is devoted to the problems of construction and application of chi-squared goodness-of-fit tests for complete and censored data. Classical chi-squared tests assume that unknown distribution parameters are estimated using grouped data, but in practice this assumption is often forgotten. In this book, we consider modified chi-squared tests, which do not suffer from such a drawback. The authors provide examples of chi-squared tests for various distributions widely used in practice, and also consider chi-squared tests for the parametric proportional hazards model and accelerated failure time model, which are widely used in reliability and survival analysis. Particular attention is paid to the choice of grouping intervals and simulations. This book covers recent innovations in the field as well as important results previously only published in Russian. Chi-squared tests are compared with other goodness-of-fit tests (such as the Cramer-von Mises-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling and Zhang tests) in terms of power when testing close competing hypotheses.

Es por ello que la Agrupaci?n de Ingenieros Forestales por el Bosque Nativo (AIFBN) hacen aqu? una propuesta para un nuevo modelo que permita enfrentar la p?rdida de biodiversidad, el avance de la desertificaci?n y los desaf?os que nos presenta el cambio clim?tico, bajo una racionalidad centrada en los habitantes, los territorios y el ecosistema. La Agrupaci?n de Ingenieros Forestales por el Bosque Nativo (AIFBN), con mucha convicci?n y s?lidos argumentos, plantea que el debate en torno al cambio de paradigma del sector forestal es urgente y necesario frente a desaf?os complejos, como la adaptaci?n y mitigaci?n del cambio clim?tico, la preservaci?n del medio ambiente y el avance de la desertificaci?n.

"El crecimiento en el uso de la ciencia de datos en nuestras sociedades est? impulsado por la aparici?n del big data y las redes sociales, la aceleraci?n de la potencia inform?tica, la reducci?n masiva en el costo de la memoria de la computadora y el desarrollo de m?todos m?s potentes para el an?lisis y modelado de datos, como el aprendizaje profundo. Todos estos factores juntos hacen que nunca haya sido tan f?cil para las organizaciones recopilar, almacenar y procesar datos. Al mismo tiempo, estas innovaciones t?cnicas y la aplicaci?n m?s amplia de la ciencia de datos hacen que los desaf?os ?ticos relacionados con el uso de datos y la privacidad individual nunca han sido tan apremiantes."

"There is nothing like it on the market…no others are as encyclopedic…the writing is exemplary: simple, direct, and competent." —George W. Cobb, Professor Emeritus of Mathematics and Statistics, Mount Holyoke College Written in a direct and clear manner, Classic Topics on the History of Modern Mathematical Statistics: From Laplace to More Recent Times presents a comprehensive guide to the history of mathematical statistics and details the major results and crucial developments over a 200-year period. Presented in chronological order, the book features an account of the classical and modern works that are essential to understanding the applications of mathematical statistics. Divided into three parts, the book begins with extensive coverage of the probabilistic works of Laplace, who laid much of the foundations of later developments in statistical theory. Subsequently, the second part introduces 20th century statistical developments including work from Karl Pearson, Student, Fisher, and Neyman. Lastly, the author addresses post-Fisherian developments. Classic Topics on the History of Modern Mathematical Statistics: From Laplace to More Recent Times also features: A detailed account of Galton's discovery of regression and correlation as well as the subsequent development of Karl Pearson's X2 and Student's t A comprehensive treatment of the permeating influence of Fisher in all aspects of modern statistics beginning with his work in 1912 Significant coverage of Neyman–Pearson theory, which includes a discussion of the differences to Fisher’s works Discussions on key historical developments as well as the various disagreements, contrasting information, and alternative theories in the history of modern mathematical statistics in an effort to provide a thorough historical treatment Classic Topics on the History of Modern Mathematical Statistics: From Laplace to More Recent Times is an excellent reference for academicians with a mathematical background who are teaching or studying the history or philosophical controversies of mathematics and statistics. The book is also a useful guide for readers with a general interest in statistical inference.

This insightful book combines the history, pedagogy, and popularization of algebra to present a unified discussion of the subject. Classical Algebra provides a complete and contemporary perspective on classical polynomial algebra through the exploration of how it was developed and how it exists today. With a focus on prominent areas such as the numerical solutions of equations, the systematic study of equations, and Galois theory, this book facilitates a thorough understanding of algebra and illustrates how the concepts of modern algebra originally developed from classical algebraic precursors. This book successfully ties together the disconnect between classical and modern algebraand provides readers with answers to many fascinating questions that typically go unexamined, including: What is algebra about? How did it arise? What uses does it have? How did it develop? What problems and issues have occurred in its history? How were these problems and issues resolved? The author answers these questions and more, shedding light on a rich history of the subject—from ancient and medieval times to the present. Structured as eleven «lessons» that are intended to give the reader further insight on classical algebra, each chapter contains thought-provoking problems and stimulating questions, for which complete answers are provided in an appendix. Complemented with a mixture of historical remarks and analyses of polynomial equations throughout, Classical Algebra: Its Nature, Origins, and Uses is an excellent book for mathematics courses at the undergraduate level. It also serves as a valuable resource to anyone with a general interest in mathematics.

Classical and Modern Approaches in the Theory of Mechanisms is a study of mechanisms in the broadest sense, covering the theoretical background of mechanisms, their structures and components, the planar and spatial analysis of mechanisms, motion transmission, and technical approaches to kinematics, mechanical systems, and machine dynamics. In addition to classical approaches, the book presents two new methods: the analytic-assisted method using Turbo Pascal calculation programs, and the graphic-assisted method, outlining the steps required for the development of graphic constructions using AutoCAD; the applications of these methods are illustrated with examples. Aimed at students of mechanical engineering, and engineers designing and developing mechanisms in their own fields, this book provides a useful overview of classical theories, and modern approaches to the practical and creative application of mechanisms, in seeking solutions to increasingly complex problems.
