Perspiration
Perspiration, also known as sweating, is the production of fluids secreted by the sweat glands in the skin of mammals. Two types of sweat glands can be found in humans: eccrine glands and apocrine glands. The eccrine sweat glands are distributed over much of the body and are responsible for secreting the watery, brackish sweat most often triggered by excessive body temperature. The apocrine sweat glands are restricted to the armpits and a few other areas of the body and produce an odorless, oily, opaque secretion which then gains its characteristic odor from bacterial decomposition. In humans, sweating is primarily a means of thermoregulation, which is achieved by the water-rich secretion of the eccrine glands. Maximum sweat rates of an adult can be up to 2–4 liters per hour or 10–14 liters per day (10–15 g/min·m2), but is less in children prior to puberty. Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface has a cooling effect due to evaporative cooling. Hence, in hot weather ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The next year, the book was translated into Russian and published in Moscow, along with ''Cacau'', his second work. ''Sweat'' is directly linked to the author's personal experience. In 1928, at just sixteen, he took a small room in the Pelourinho (in Salvador, Bahia), where he could witness the daily lives of the men and women forced to live in cramped conditions. In a Postface to his book, ''Captains of the Sands'', Amado wrote that ''Sweat'' was the third work in the six-novel cycle he called "The Bahian Novels" in which he had tried to set down the "life, the customs, the language of my State". He described ''Sweat'' as exposing "the most failed aspect of the State, creatures who have already lost e ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tom Breihan of ''Pitchfork'' gave the album an 8.6 out of 10, calling it "an absurd burst of swagger and libido, as rendered by three total expert musicians." Thom Jurek of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "''Orange'' is almost entirely new sonic terrain -- but it keeps the trio's trademark sweaty, musical terrorism and hedonistic rage u ...
