Problemas resueltos de matemática discreta. 2ª edición ampliada


Book Description

Las (mal llamadas) clases de problemas constituyen una herramienta fundamental en cualquier disciplina científica. Tradicionalmente, estas clases cumplen el objetivo de complementar aspectos más o menos difíciles de la disciplina en cuestión. Sin embargo, deberían entenderse más como un entrenamiento que capacite al estudiante para resolver cualquier problema (en sentido amplio) que se le pueda plantear en su vida profesional. Con este espíritu se concibe esta colección de “Problemas resueltos” que Ediciones Paraninfo pone a disposición de profesores y estudiantes de una gran variedad de disciplinas académicas. Esta obra ofrece un conjunto de problemas, todos ellos resueltos de una forma ordenada, completa y pedagógica, sobre temas que actualmente se incluyen en los trabajos de Discreta. Puede servir de complemento al texto Matemática Discreta de F. García Merayo publicado por esta misma editorial. Los ejercicios se han distribuido en once capítulos, todos ellos con la misma estructura. Cada uno de estos capítulos comienza con un resumen teórico como apoyo para la resolución de los ejercicios que contiene, que pertenecen a tres categorías: problemas resueltos, propuestos y de recapitulación. Los propuestos también tienen su solución completa. Todos ellos están orientados a todas las especialidades de Ingeniería, así como a muchas otras disciplinas facultativas, si bien serán de especial interés para estudiantes de Ingeniería Informática.

Writing Across Cultures


Book Description

Ángel Rama was one of twentieth-century Latin America's most distinguished men of letters. Writing across Cultures is his comprehensive analysis of the varied sources of Latin American literature. Originally published in 1982, the book links Rama's work on Spanish American modernism with his arguments about the innovative nature of regionalist literature, and it foregrounds his thinking about the close relationship between literary movements, such as modernism or regionalism, and global trends in social and economic development. In Writing across Cultures, Rama extends the Cuban anthropologist Fernando Ortiz's theory of transculturation far beyond Cuba, bringing it to bear on regional cultures across Latin America, where new cultural arrangements have been forming among indigenous, African, and European societies for the better part of five centuries. Rama applies this concept to the work of the Peruvian novelist, poet, and anthropologist José María Arguedas, whose writing drew on both Spanish and Quechua, Peru's two major languages and, by extension, cultures. Rama considered Arguedas's novel Los ríos profundos (Deep Rivers) to be the most accomplished example of narrative transculturation in Latin America. Writing across Cultures is the second of Rama's books to be translated into English.

The Poisoned Water


Book Description

This first English translation makes avail­able to English-speaking readers a power­ful modern Mexican novel, first published in 1961. Fernando Benítez, well-known Mexican author, journalist, and winner of Mexico's 1968 best-book award, exploits a true but little-known incident by build­ing it into a tightly structured, tense, and tragic novel of social protest. The incident on which the novel is based is a bloody rebellion against the village feudal master touched off by joking comment on the "poisoning" of the water as one of Don Ulises's men is pushed into the plaza fountain. Feed­ing on itself, the rumor spreads that the "boss" has poisoned the local spring, and rebellion follows, with its violent and unforeseen consequences. The result is a frightening look at one of Mexico's major social problems and glaring ironies--that over fifty years after a revolution fought by the peasant and for the peasant, most rural groups are still living below the national economic standard.
