The purpose of this work is to provide a global view of the current state of the art and recent developments on the applicability of composite materials in civil engineering and construction. The book contains a collection of research papers from national and international experts, which address current and future challenges in this field, providing, through a wide variety of case studies, a roadmap with technical skills and knowledge practical tools for the use of composite materials in new applications. The texts are -as far as possible- self-contained in their parts, allowing a reading according to the particular interest of each reader. They present technical foundations, research results, and review and compile updated bibliographic references that complement and allow the reader to acquire a deeper knowledge of the topics exposed, directing it towards possible future lines of research. Written by professionals and researchers with experience in this field, this book aims to be a reference text for those not initiated in the subject and a study and research tool for readers of more advanced levels.

"This second volume La santé animale covers the main livestock diseases in detail: infectious and parasitic diseases, vector-borne diseases, and diseases linked to the environment and to rearing conditions. Each disease is described — symptoms, causes, mode of transmission and spread—, along with the relevant treatments and preventive measures. Intended for veterinary technicians and agricultural counsellors, this technical work provides clear, essential information for anyone working with or in charge of treating animals in the tropics and subtropics. It can also be used for teaching purposes, in the higher education sector."

Once treated as the absence of knowledge, ignorance today has become a highly influential topic in its own right, commanding growing attention across the natural and social sciences where a wide range of scholars have begun to explore the social life and political issues involved in the distribution and strategic use of not knowing. The field is growing fast and this handbook reflects this interdisciplinary field of study by drawing contributions from economics, sociology, history, philosophy, cultural studies, anthropology, feminist studies, and related fields in order to serve as a seminal guide to the political, legal and social uses of ignorance in social and political life.
