  In the meantime, Grouchy had failed to overtake Blücher's army.

Grouchy's message of warning to Napoleon brought the reply, sent at 10 AM on June 18, that Grouchy should keep trying to make contact with the Prussians. Grouchy's pursuit was slovenly and unhurried, and he failed to locate the enemy. On the morning o...

Sin embargo, el término mapa cognitivo se debe al psicólogo conductista Edward C. Tolman y a su artículo, escrito en 1948, Cognitive Maps in Rats and Men , en el que concluyó que las ratas parecían poseer en sus cerebros algo así como un mapa de rutas que les permitía relacionar elementos espaciales y gracias a este, en últimotérmino, se determinaba su comportamiento.

  In their day-to-day lives, slaves and servants shared similar grievances and frequently formed alliances. Advertisements seeking the return of slaves and servants whohad run away together filled colonial newspapers. When a slave named Charles escaped in 1740, the Pennsylvania Gazette reported that two white servants, a 'Scotch man' and an Englishman, escaped with him. Sometimes interracial alliances involved violence. During Bacon's Rebellion in 1676, slaves and servants took up armsagainst Na...
