Smile is not merely a great unfinished album, but a living work of art that is all at once expansive, indeterminate, and resolutely pop.In the early 1960s, The Beach Boys rose from the suburbs of Hawthorne, California to become emissaries of a post-war American dream that fused middle-class aspiration and mobility with images of youth. Led by dream master Brian Wilson, their music gave voice to a Southern California mythos and compelled an audience across the nation and beyond to live out their own versions of the fantasy. By 1966, the encroaching counterculture added new dimensions of creative possibility to popular music. Looking to revise and expand, Brian Wilson sought collaboration with a brilliant musician named Van Dyke Parks. Together they began work on Smile, an ambitious album of music that refracted The Beach Boys’ naïveté into a visionary exploration of American consciousness. Smile edged so close to greatness it seemed destined to become one of the most significant musical advances of its time. But the story didn't end quite like this. In this book of evocative essays, Sanchez traces the musical journey that transformed The Beach Boys from West Coast surf heroes into America’s pop luminaries, and ultimately why Smile represents a tumultuous turning point in the history of popular music.

The book reviews the fundamentals of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) technologies to degrade hazardous organics via photocatalysis of 1-dimensional zinc-oxide (ZnO). One-dimensional ZnO nanorods (ZnO-NRs) have been of utmost interest due to their high surface area, efficient charge transport, and superior photosensitivity. These features make ZnO-based nanorods exciting candidates for applications in photocatalysis. Even though photocatalysis using bare ZnO nanorods is useful in pollutant remediation, several drawbacks such as high recombination of photo−excited charge carriers and ineffective operation of sunlight make it less effective. This book thus presents a review of the current modification strategies carried out to increase the ZnO nanorods photoactivity, such as enhancing the photocatalytic activity of ZnO through modification of its electronic and optical properties, doping metal/nonmetal atoms, depositing noble metals, constructing heterojunctions, and coupling carbon materials. This book provides invaluable insights for researchers, engineers, and policymakers seeking sustainable solutions for pollutant degradation. Furthermore, the discussion on future directions illuminates the potential of ZnO nanorods as a promising photoactive material, fostering continued innovation and progress in the field.

Desde una perspectiva que considera a los migrantes como una parte sustancial de las sociedades, Migración. Desafíos y oportunidades en América Latina ofrece un análisis profundo del impacto de este fenómeno en individuos y sociedades de la región. El libro destaca especialmente las dinámicas de inclusión y exclusión, poniendo de relieve las dificultades que enfrentan los migrantes debido a políticas o culturas excluyentes.Enfocándose en el asentamiento como un desafío cada vez más complejo para las sociedades contemporáneas, la obra propone ampliar la perspectiva de integración. Esta expansión busca comprender las migraciones en su diversidad, complejidad y conexiones transnacionales, abordando tanto los ajustes en asentamientos permanentes como las dinámicas de inclusión y exclusión asociadas con procesos migratorios más complejos.Escrito por destacados expertos de Colombia, Chile y México, el libro ofrece una mirada fresca y esencial para quienes buscan comprender las complejidades y oportunidades en el panorama migratorio de la región.

Desde siempre la pedagogía de la educación se ha encontrado con los desafíos que presenta la programación, el desarrollo y la evaluación de una enseñanza aprendizaje significativo y efectivo, de la ética y la moral entre los adolescentes y los jóvenes.Estas páginas proponen una alternativa atractiva, la deliberación como práctica escolar, ya experimentada sobre el terreno, que ofrece a los docentes una metodología que permite proyectar "prácticas deliberativas" en el grupo-clase sobre temas y asuntos de candente actualidad como: el aborto, la eutanasia, la diversidad, la ecología, la justicia, la democracia, los derechos humanos, la neuroética, el big data o la inteligencia artificial, entre otros.
