Amyris Biotechnologies: Commercializing Biofuel
by Gary P. Pisano Alison Berkley WagonfeldIn 2009, Amyris Biotechnologies was building a plant in Brazil that used synthetic biology to convert sugarcane into both renewable fuels and renewable chemicals. The Amyris' marketing team was investigating the commercial interest for both types of products, while the research and development team and the operations group were building processes that could accommodate both as well. CEO John Melo hoped to have commercial product available in 2011; however, he realized that pursuing both chemicals and fuels added even more complexity to a business that was already executing multiple development steps in parallel. The case looks at the various strategic and operational decisions facing Melo as he planned the company's optimal commercialization strategy.
Amá, Your Story Is Mine: Walking Out of the Shadows of Abuse
by Ercenia CedeñoIn the preface to her memoir, Ercenia "Alice" Cedeño recalls the secrecy and turmoil that marked her youth: "I spent most of my growing years mad at my mother and wanting her to change to fit in with the rest of the world," she writes. "When my sisters and I wanted her to visit our friends' mothers, she would say, 'Why do people need to know other peoples' lives?' Looking back, I wonder if she was really saying, 'I don't want them to know our business.' There was so much to hide." Now bringing those hidden memories to light, Amá, Your Story Is Mine traces the hardship, violence, deceit, and defiance that shaped the identity of two generations of women in Alice's family. Born in the mountains of northern Mexico, Alice's mother married at age 14 into a family rife with passion that often turned to anger. After losing several infant children to disease, the young couple crossed into the United States seeking a better life. Unfolding in a series of powerful vignettes, Amá, Your Story Is Mine describes in captivating detail a daring matriarch who found herself having to protect her children from their own father while facing the challenges of cultural discrimination. By turns wry and tender, Alice's recollections offer a rare memoir that fully encompasses the Latina experience in the United States.

Améfrica in Letters: Literary Interventions from Mexico to the Southern Cone (Hispanic Issues)
by Paulette Ramsay Juan Eduardo Wolf Eliseo Jacob Juan Guillermo Sánchez Martínez Michael Handelsman Gloria Chacón Ángela Castro Isis Barra Costa Diana Rodríguez Quevedo Mamadou BadianeTraditional histories of Black letters in Latin America have delimited their geographic scope to the Caribbean while also omitting intertwined Afro-Indigenous discourses. Inspired by the legacy of Amefrican thinker Lélia Gonzalez, Améfrica in Letters highlights the Black poets, songwriters, novelists, essayists, and bloggers who have created a counter-multiculturalist literary history on the Latin American mainland. To capture a sense of the variety of their contributions, this book spans Mexico, Central America, the Andes, and the Southern Cone—highlighting the transcontinental nature of the legacy of Black writing and its impact beyond national boundaries. The writers examined in the volume engage with regional intellectual frameworks while putting into circulation a demand for a recalibration of the Hispanophone and Lusophone contexts in which they and other Afrodescendants reside.
América Latina y el mundo que viene
by Ricardo LagosDesde fines de 2006, el ex presidente de Chile Ricardo Lagos ha escrito una columna mensual en el diario Clarín, de Buenos Aires, sobre la situación de América Latina. Muchos de estos artículos nacieron motivados por la contingencia ?la asunción de Barack Obama, la crisis económica internacional, el quiebre de la democracia en Honduras, el cambio climático, entre otros?, pero sobre todo siempre con la idea de perfilar nuevos desafíos para este joven continente. América Latina y el mundo que viene, un libro revelador en todas sus aristas, descubre un continente que ha tenido un sinfín de dificultades, que incluso en ocasiones ha sido omitido del mapa mundial, pero que no obstante ha logrado construir sólidas democracias, economías pujantes y un consenso en torno al desarrollo como una meta común. Así, Ricardo Lagos vaticina un futuro lleno de oportunidades: «En diez años más esperemos saber que América Latina siguió avanzando con buena marcha, con sociedades más sólidas y la pobreza en franca retirada. Las lecciones de la década que termina nos ilustran por dónde ir.»

América Latina: Nuevos Desafíos Para el Crecimiento y la Estabilidad
by Dora Iakova Sebastián Sosa Gustavo Adler Luis M. CubedduA report from the International Monetary Fund.
América mestiza
by William OspinaEn esta serie de ensayos, William Ospina nos habla de la grandeza deAmérica, la belleza de sus países, la mezcla cultural y racial que sedio con el encuentro de los mundos y la importancia de la unidad para elcontinente. Llamada hispánica por los españoles, ibérica por portugueses, latina porlos franceses, equinoccial, ístmica, insular y meridional por el barónde Humboldt y por los criollos, nuestra América lleva siglos tratando dedefinirse a sí misma, y en esa búsqueda casi infructuosa puedeadvertirse siquiera simbólicamente la complejidad de su composición y lamagnitud de sus dificultades. [#] Se diría que de todos los nombres queha buscado para sí, el que más podría convenirle es el de AméricaMestiza, que al menos procura definirla por su diversidad y por susmixturas, no por la predominancia de alguno de sus elementos. Y habríaque entender por mestiza no sólo la mezcla de elementos étnicos yculturales ibéricos e indígenas, sino la múltiple convergencia deelementos africanos, de las otras naciones de Europa y la crecienteincorporación de tradiciones del resto del mundo. Nuestra América esmenos una homogeneidad geográfica que una conjunción histórica ycultural, pero el destino común de sus habitantes terminó convirtiéndolaen un mundo al que es preciso pensar y abarcar en conjunto, como alpensar en el continente europeo la mente incluye automáticamente aEscandinavia y a Islandia, porque la historia compartida terminainfluyendo sobre la geografía.»
América no es libre: Lo que su gobierno no quiere que sepan
by Mike DonovanAmérica no es libre representa un llamado ferviente a los americanos que aman la libertad a fin de recuperar nuestras libertades constitucionales y escapar de lo que él define como «nuestra relación abusiva con el gobierno». El innovador trabajo de Mike Donovan a favor de las libertades personales lo ha convertido en un objeto de fascinación tanto para la derecha como la izquierda.En este revelador libro, Mike Donovan, CEO de Nexus Services, planta cara a las élites políticas de ambos partidos, que ejercen el poder en nuestro país, no solo a nivel federal, sino de todos los estados, condados, ciudades y pueblos. América no es libre representa un llamado ferviente a los americanos que aman la libertad a fin de recuperar nuestras libertades constitucionales y escapar de lo que él define como «nuestra relación abusiva con el gobierno». Donovan detalla cómo esta «trituración integral de la Carta de Derechos» comenzó mucho antes de la presente crisis de la COVID-19 y las manifestaciones y violencia desatadas tras el asesinato de George Floyd. América no es libre nos muestra que las fuerzas de nuestros gobiernos locales, estatales y federal aprovecharon estos eventos, pero llevaban décadas atropellando sistemáticamente nuestros derechos. Mike nos recuerda que es Dios quien concede estos derechos, y que la Constitución, la Carta de Derechos y la Decimocuarta Enmienda los garantizan. Mike pastorea actualmente la Primera Iglesia Cristiana Universalista de Harrisonburg, Virginia, pero no se parece en nada al típico clérigo tranquilo y campestre: es un guerrero feroz con el espíritu de Dios y la piel gruesa de un legislador que ha dedicado su vida a proteger la libertad, preservar los derechos individuales, servir a los necesitados y ministrar a los olvidados de nuestra fallida sociedad. De hecho, varios aspectos de su pasado y presente lo convierten en un blanco fácil para juzgarlo desde todas direcciones. Pero Mike Donovan no esconde nada, sino que abraza abiertamente los errores de su pasado y dedica su presente a crear un futuro que ayuda a los demás a superar los infortunios de su pasado. Nacido en una familia pobre en el condado de Page, Virginia, a temprana edad fue condenado por emitir cheques sin fondos, lo que le acarreó múltiples delitos graves por los que pasó siete meses en la cárcel del condado. El tiempo encerrado, lejos de hundirlo, lo convirtió en el hombre que es hoy: un hombre de ley y un hombre de Dios que cree de todo corazón y con toda el alma en la posibilidad de redención y el poder de resarcirse de los errores del pasado. También terminó esa experiencia sabiendo que necesitaba marcar la diferencia para otras personas que se encontraban donde él había estado. Obras son amores y no buenas razones, por eso Mike Donovan sigue los pasos del Jesús que dijo: «Estuve en la cárcel y me visitasteis … En cuanto lo hicisteis a estos, a mí lo hicisteis». América no es libre muestra cómo hacer todo eso por América y por nuestros hijos. El libro finaliza con una promesa de preservar la libertad americana a modo de compromiso para que los lectores declaren que solo votarán a los legisladores que estén dispuestos a proteger los derechos y libertades garantizados por la Carta de Derechos y la Decimocuarta Enmienda.

Amériques transculturelles - Transcultural Americas (Cultural Transfers)
by Afef BenessaiehLa transculturalité constitue une nouvelle façon de concevoir les cultures, c’est-àdire non plus comme des îlots distincts, mais plutôt comme des réseaux interactifs de sens et de pratiques. Ces identités transculturelles qui n’entrent pas aisément dans le seul moule d’une nation ou d’une ethnie abondent particulièrement dans les Amériques, par exemple les Chicanos, les Franco-Ontariens, les Créoles et les immigrants de deuxième et de troisième génération. De Québec à l’Argentine, cet ouvrage se penche sur ces identités qui se construisent au carrefour de la similitude et de la différence.

An (Abbreviated) Perspective on Entrepreneurship
by Mitchell B. Weiss Benjamin HenkesAmong the many competing definitions of entrepreneurship, the one adopted in The Entrepreneurial Manager at HBS was authored by Howard Stevenson in the 1980s and elaborated on in the decades since. Stevenson provided a managerial take on the term; he described entrepreneurship as a distinct approach to management. That approach is the subject of this brief note. The note provides his definition of entrepreneurship ("the pursuit of opportunity without regard to resources currently controlled") and six domains that differentiate entrepreneurial managers from administrative managers.

by Aurore PramilLearn to interpret the messages the animal world has for you!A bird knocks insistently on your window, your cat brings you a lizard, you find yourself face to face with a spider or you dream of an elephant ... what if each animal had a message for you? Animals have always been a source of fascination for humans - we love to watch them, learn about them and keep them as pets. But what if animals could actually communicate with us? In this complete guide, you'll find everything you need to know about the symbolism and signs of more than 150 animals, whether they appear to you in a dream or 'happen' to cross your path. You'll learn their individual characteristics as well as the elements and seasons they're associated with. You'll also discover what these encounters mean for different aspects of your life including love, career, family and health.

Sometimes you'll receive an encouraging sign that confirms you're on the right path or guidance to help you move forward. Other times, an animal will deliver a deeper lesson for you to explore, because that's how we learn. More than anything, their messages can open avenues of questioning and help to make your way forward clearer. The animals wish you well; they want you to hear their messages. Let them become your guides!
An A-Z of Animals in the Garden
by Twigs WayA quirky look at some of the most unusual garden animals ever kept in Britain, from crocodiles to wombats Perhaps one of the less known facts about the Pre-Raphaelite artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti is that he kept wombats in his garden at Cheyne Walk, London, to whom he and Christina addressed poetry (he also kept zebu - a type of cattle). This is just one of the stories in this entertaining book, which brings together two great British pastimes: animal husbandry and the garden. Taking the reader on a journey from the armadillos owned by merchants in the City of London in the eighteenth century and nourished on garden earthworms, to Queen Charlotte's zebra, which was accommodated close to her house at Buckingham Gate and renowned for its nicotine-fueled filthy temper, here are quirky tales of animals in the garden through the centuries.
