El objetivo principal del libro es ayudar a clarificar los conceptos, a consolidar los conocimientos adquiridos y buscar soluciones para que las comunidades mejoren la utilización de sus territorios. En cada territorio su conformación natural e histórica crea circunstancias que lo singularizan, hasta el punto de que son difícilmente reducibles a categorías o comportamientos generales y, en consecuencia, las actuaciones o propuestas para lograr o mejorar su cohesión tienen que considerar necesariamente sus peculiaridades. Con este fin presentamos una metodología general de análisis del medio, que exige definir claramente los objetivos; recopilar información cartográfica; recoger datos estadísticos, inventariar, verificar y corregirlos, interpretarlos y proceder a su tratamiento.

Este es un libro "vivo" que se ha ido formando a través de una serie sobre ordenación del territorio iniciada por el autor en 1975 y continuada sin ininterrupción por diversos títulos y editoriales, hasta llegar a la que ahora se presenta, que en rigor es la novena. Durante esta larga trayectoria el libro ha superado con éxito el refrendo de una intensa y extensa utilización en la vida académica, en foros muy diversos y en la actividad profesional, como libro de texto y de consulta, de la que se ha beneficiado, manteniendo siempre su carácter de obra de referencia en la materia. Esta nueva edición ha depurado y simplificado la anterior ("quitado grasa y fortalecido fibra", podría decirse) gracias al continuo aprendizaje de los autores adquirido en una intensa actividad (investigadora, profesional, docente y divulgadora) desarrollada en diversos países, que les ha permitido perfeccionar conceptos, metodologías y técnicas, mantener sancionados por la experiencia, eliminar los no verificados por ella, y añadir otros sugeridos por la veloz evolución social; es el caso, por ejemplo, de la nueva dimensión se añade al sistema territorial: la imagen que transmite y su percepción, es decir, el paisaje. Pero la edición ha conservado el doble carácter académico y profesional de las anteriores, que equilibraba el enfoque conceptual propio de la academia, con el orientado a la actividad profesional: metodologías, técnicas y ejemplos, propios de un manual. Por ello sus destinatarios abarcan al estudiante universitario, de grado y postgrado, y al titulado de cualquier campo cuya actividad profesional (docente, investigadora, consultora o gestora) se orienta hacia la ordenación territorial y hacia campos indisociables de ella: desarrollo sostenible, ambiente, gestión de recursos o espacios naturales, paisaje y paisajismo, etc.

Vacant urban land--the product of land market activity, the actions of private agents, and the policies of public agents--is an important challenge for policy makers. Vacant lots on the urban fringe and in central and interstitial areas have affected growth patterns in Latin America. Contributors to this book analyze the problems and opportunities related to vacant urban land in five cities: Buenos Aires, Argentina; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Quito, Ecuador; Lima, Perú; and San Salvador, El Salvador.

Dennis Dalton's classic account of Gandhi's political and intellectual development focuses on the leader's two signal triumphs: the civil disobedience movement (or salt satyagraha) of 1930 and the Calcutta fast of 1947. Dalton clearly demonstrates how Gandhi's lifelong career in national politics gave him the opportunity to develop and refine his ideals. He then concludes with a comparison of Gandhi's methods and the strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, drawing a fascinating juxtaposition that enriches the biography of all three figures and asserts Gandhi's relevance to the study of race and political leadership in America. Dalton situates Gandhi within the "clash of civilizations" debate, identifying the implications of his work on continuing nonviolent protests. He also extensively reviews Gandhian studies and adds a detailed chronology of events in Gandhi's life.

El tema del libro es de actualidad sin fronteras, como se observa con la variedad de trabajos sobre el espacio territorial de Iberoamérica y por el múltiple enfoque urbanístico, arquitectónico y ambiental, que recoge el tratamiento de la regulación del suelo, sus usos y zonificaciones compatibles con el crecimiento sostenido de la ciudad. Las reflexiones acerca de la ordenación del territorio comprenden la problemática del impacto en el medio ambiente, la construcción de obras para privilegiar la calidad de vida, el hábitat y la vivienda. La regulación del suelo y del espacio territorial también alcanza al patrimonio urbano, la participación ciudadana, la cultura, la educación, la información y la comunicación para el acceso social equitativo como exigencia natural del desarrollo local sostenible.

For information on the online course in Biological Wastewater Treatment from UNESCO-IHE, visit: http://www.iwapublishing.co.uk/books/biological-wastewater-treatment-online-course-principles-modeling-and-design Over the past twenty years, the knowledge and understanding of wastewater treatment have advanced extensively and moved away from empirically-based approaches to a first principles approach embracing chemistry, microbiology, physical and bioprocess engineering, and mathematics. Many of these advances have matured to the degree that they have been codified into mathematical models for simulation with computers. For a new generation of young scientists and engineers entering the wastewater treatment profession, the quantity, complexity and diversity of these new developments can be overwhelming, particularly in developing countries where access is not readily available to advanced level tertiary education courses in wastewater treatment. Biological Wastewater Treatment addresses this deficiency. It assembles and integrates the postgraduate course material of a dozen or so professors from research groups around the world that have made significant contributions to the advances in wastewater treatment. The book forms part of an internet-based curriculum in biological wastewater treatment which also includes: Summarized lecture handouts of the topics covered in book Filmed lectures by the author professors Tutorial exercises for students self-learning Upon completion of this curriculum the modern approach of modelling and simulation to wastewater treatment plant design and operation, be it activated sludge, biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal, secondary settling tanks or biofilm systems, can be embraced with deeper insight, advanced knowledge and greater confidence.
