Es un libro diseñado para estudiantes y profesionales dedicados a la enseñanza y la traducción del idioma inglés. Presenta dichos y proverbios famosos, modos de uso frecuentes en lengua castellana y expresiones propias del habla coloquial en la Argentina y su traducción al inglés. Este es un singular tipo de diccionario no exhaustivo de correspondencia o conformidad entre frases, giros, expresiones y modismos en castellano e Inglés, de ahí el neologismo CONCORDARIO, puesto que no se trata de un diccionario en el sentido propio. Inútil es buscar aquí exacta similitud verbal, porque tal cosa con frecuencia no existe, desde que el significado de una expresión o un modismo posee gradaciones de matiz y contundencia expresiva, además de las variantes específicas, conforme a la situación en la que se emplea o el particular registro que el lenguaje asume. Tampoco hay una sola forma de correspondencia entre dos expresiones dadas, pues en muchos casos, la conformidad suele variar de acuerdo al contexto. La lista está ordenada por secuencia alfabética de la palabra subrayada que integra la expresión, e incluye aquellos giros idiomáticos o formas de dicción cuya traducción no logra deducirse generalmente de una versión hecha vocablo a vocablo. En este sentido, la versión inglesa intenta en ocasiones traducir la idea detrás del uso particular del modismo, cuando aquella se acerca a una equivalencia del giro o la frase castellana.

Alternative Fuel Vehicles gives full coverage of all associated qualifications and awards in the emerging field of alternative fuels. It is an essential introduction to the ever-growing demand for vehicles that operate using non-conventional fuels. This first book on AFVs endorsed by the IMI begins with an overview of the subject, ideal for beginners, before outlining what is meant by alternative fuels, why they are necessary, and why climate change and associated legislation are key drivers. Details of how alternative fuels are made, the supply infrastructure, and how these vehicles work are all included. A chapter on fuel cells introduces learners to the use of hydrogen, and one on engines and engine management includes coverage of combustion as an aid to understanding why changing the type of engine fuel is complex. Some basic engine technology is included to help readers new to the subject. Real-life case studies and examples are used to illustrate different technologies in current use, and to speculate on new developments. This book is an ideal companion to any unit of study on alternative fuel, but will also be of interest to working technicians and keen amateurs.

Vulnerability has traditionally been conceived as a dichotomised status, where an individual by reason of a personal characteristic is classified as vulnerable or not. However, vulnerability is not static, and most, if not all, people are vulnerable at some time in their lives. Similarly, marginality is a social construct linked to power and control. Marginalised populations are relegated to the perimeters of power by legal and political structures and limited access to resources. Neither are fixed or essential categories. This book draws on international research and scholarship related to these constructs, exploring vulnerability and marginality as they intersect with power and privilege. This exploration is undertaken through the lenses of intimacy and sexuality to consider vulnerability and marginality in the most personal of ways. This includes examining these concepts in relation to a range of professions, including social work, psychology, nursing, and allied health. A strong emphasis on the fluidity and complexity of vulnerability and marginality across cultures and at different times makes this a unique contribution to scholarship in this field. This is essential reading for students and researchers involved with social work, social policy, sociology, and gender and sexuality studies.

In this book I continue the story of my late mother’s life, tying up some loose ends and filling in inadvertent gaps in the narrative. Memories are fickle and evanescent, often no more substantial than last night’s dream. They cannot be summoned up at will to reveal themselves and often require a period of incubation before to begin to coalesce. As was the case in The Girl From Copenhagen, I have in this sequel used pictures in my mother’s photo albums to rekindle half-forgotten memories. I was surprised when I wrote this book by how many significant events in my mother’s life that I had failed to record. But such is the nature of memory.
