Literatura, política y sociedad: construcciones de sentido en la Hispanoamérica contemporánea
“Para Andrés Avellaneda, la práctica literaria y la práctica política han sido, y siguen siendo, áreas inseparables en el estudio de la cultura letrada latinoamericana. A lo largo de su carrera como crítico y docente, tanto en sus textos como en múltiples intervenciones académicas, jamás perdió de vista los conflictos de poder y las condiciones materiales de la región, a la vez que ha sabido manejar los matices que se imponen sutilmente en el análisis literario. Por todo ello, y por tanto más, con este volumen celebramos y agradecemos lo que ya nos ha dado y lo mucho que seguramente aportará en años venideros.” Saúl Sosnowski ~ “For Andrés Avellaneda, literary and political practices have been, and continue to be, inseparable areas in the study of Latin American literate culture. Throughout his career as a critic and teacher, both in his texts and in multiple academic speeches, he has never lost sight of the conflicts of power and the material conditions of the region, while at the same time he has known how to handle the nuances that are subtly imposed in literary analysis. For all this, and for much more, with this volume we celebrate and appreciate what he has already given us and everything he will surely contribute in the years to come.” Saúl Sosnowski

Biotechnology of Orchids and Other Ornamentals
Advancement of plant tissue culture, or micropropagation, breeding, genetics and genomics have contributed to mass production of propagules, creating novel hybrids or cultivars, as well as modern tools for improving the molecular breeding efficiency of important crop plants, including ornamentals. This book covers these areas in relation to ornamental plants to fulfil the needs of students and researchers, in addition to commercial vendors. Ornamental biotechnology enables the mass production of young plants, including seed-derived seedlings, and tissue-culture-derived propagules, or mericloned plants. Two chapters are focused on flower industry development and tissue culture business in both Taiwan and Thailand as each produces a large quantity of tropical and subtropical ornamentals, both pot plants and cut flowers, as well as having a strong micropropagation industry to support the floriculture business worldwide. Work in the emerging markets of Latin America is also covered. Breeding and micropropagation of economically important or novelty orchids are elaborated in several chapters, including Dendrobium and Phalaenopsis hybrids. Aroids and roses are also covered. Modern molecular tools such as genomics, molecular markers, gene editing and transformation can help in improving desirable traits and creating potential novel hybrids of ornamentals, and these are covered in detail.

Spain Is (Still) Different
Spain Is (Still) Different addresses both theoretical perspectives on the study of tourism in Spain and specific cases of the cultural impact of travel and tourism on Spanish culture in the late eighteenth to early twenty-first centuries. With contributions from experts in leisure and culture studies, literature, film, and art historians from Spain, the UK, and the U.S., this innovative multi-disciplinary volume introduces readers to methodological and practical issues concerning the cultural function of tourism in Spain. The main body of contributions comes from the area of cultural studies. In the introduction, Afinoguénova and Martí-Olivella provide a comprehensive overview of the problematic of tourism in Spain and of diverse approaches to the study of tourism in its relation to Spanish culture. Unlike other collections on tourism studies, this book is aimed to bridge the gap between the social sciences and the humanities. It is structured to provide an example of how experts in different fields can use each other's work in order to achieve a multi-faceted understanding of the phenomenon of tourism and its implications.
