This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together two important discussions in public health in developing countries: an understanding of the burden of disease, health equity and social determinants of health; and biomathematical models, epidemiological studies and estimation of the direct and indirect cost of disease. The empirical chapters in the first part discuss aspects of disease prevention and health promotion in developing countries, with a particular focus on countries that are part of the World Health Organization’s Eastern Mediterranean Region and the African Region. Health equity and social determinants of health constitute a cornerstone of this book, with the widespread recognition that addressing the social determinants of health is crucial not only for improving general health but importantly for reducing unfair and remediable health inequalities. Using mathematical models, epidemiological studies and statistical estimation of costs, the second part of this book shows the opportunities that exist for developing countries to prevent disease and promote health by adopting cost-effective strategies and cost–benefit analyses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While research teams are producing relevant and valid knowledge for health promotion, there is not yet a structured manual and distinct field of health promotion research. This timely "state-of-the-art" handbook contributes to structuring the field of health promotion research. This collection presents introductory-level methodological solutions to the major epistemological, methodological, and ethical challenges facing health promotion research. It brings together experts from different "research traditions" that coexist in the field. The handbook covers the existing knowledge production and sharing practices to delineate the "discipline" and its agenda for future research. Ultimately, it contributes to creating a global community of health promotion researchers. This volume concerns research practices relevant to the production and sharing of knowledge about health promotion practices. It is organized as follows: Part I presents some paradigms and approaches to knowledge production relevant to health promotion research. Parts II to V describe research designs and methods that specifically address health promotion research. Part VI includes an overview of the challenges facing health promotion research and suggests ways forward. Global Handbook of Health Promotion Research, Vol. 3: Doing Health Promotion Research is a highly relevant reference tool for researchers and graduate students in health promotion, public health, education, and socio-health sciences; practitioners in health, medical, and social sectors; policy-makers; and health research administrators.

This book was released on 2010-05-12 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En droit international de l’investissement, le prisme de l’expropriation indirecte couvre une large catégorie de mesures – telles que les réglementations – qui n’impliquent pas de transfert de propriété mais aboutissent à une grave interférence avec un investissement. La définition des dépossessions indemnisables constitue une question extrêmement sensible, située à la croisée des chemins entre la protection des droits des investisseurs et la préservation des prérogatives de l’Etat. Cet ouvrage explore, à travers l’exemple de la réglementation environnementale, le droit applicable à cette notion controversée. Il montre que l’approche traditionnelle – reposant sur une dilution du concept d’expropriation – n’est nullement appropriée et il contribue à clarifier l’étendue de la protection de l’investisseur sur le fondement du droit de la responsabilité internationale de l’Etat. In international investment law, the prism of indirect expropriation includes a broad range of measures – such as regulatory measures – which do not involve a transfer of property but result in a serious interference with an investment. The definition of compensable taking is a very sensitive issue situated at the crossroads between the protection of investors' private rights and the safeguarding of the state's sovereign prerogatives. This book explores, through the example of environmental regulation, the law applicable to this controversial topic. It suggests that the traditional approach – based on an extension of the concept of expropriation – is inappropriate and it contributes to clarifying the scope of the international protection of the investor on the ground of the law of state responsibility.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International cooperation has developed rapidly on a wide range of policy areas in the last decades. National governments have learned to look across national borders in order to improve their policy systems, as in the case of health care, the subject of this book. There is a need to compare policy results, and therefore international comparison of statistical data is of great importance. For decades, international organisations like OECD and WHO have collected and distributed statistical information of member states in order to describe developments within these countries. However, comparability across countries has always been problematic. The task of international comparison of statistical data has only reluctantly been adopted due to difficulties caused by differences in definition and methods of data collection. In this book a method is presented for the advancement of international comparison of health care. Starting points are the determination of the boundaries of national health care systems and the activities that take place within these boundaries. This book is meant for all those working in the international health care field or interested in international comparison, who want to be aware of the pitfalls of international comparison and who want to learn, from the described experiences, how to solve problems of comparability.

Download or read book Legionella and the Prevention of Legionellosis written by Jamie Bartram and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2007 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is the major natural reservoir for legionellae, and the bacteria are found worldwide in many different natural and artificial aquatic environments, such as cooling towers, water systems in hotels homes, ships and factories, respiratory therapy equipment, fountains misting devices and spa pools. This book provides a comprehensive overview on the sources, ecology and laboratory diagnosis of legionella. Guidance is provided on risk assessment and risk management of susceptible environments. The necessary measures to prevent, or adequately control, the risk from exposure to legionella bacteria are identified for each identified environment. Outbreaks of legionellosis generally cause a high level of morbidity and mortality in the people affected and as such the suspicion of an outbreak warrants immediate action. The policies and practice for outbreak management and the institutional roles and responsibilities of an outbreak control team are reviewed. This book will be useful to all those concerned with legionella and health, including environmental and public health officers, health care workers, the travel industry, researchers and special interest groups.

Download or read book Confronting Ecological and Economic Collapse written by Laura Westra and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the first appearance of the term in law in the Clean Water Act of 1972 (US), ecological integrity has been debated by a wide range of researchers, including biologists, ecologists, philosophers, legal scholars, doctors and epidemiologists, whose joint interest was the study and understanding of ecological/biological integrity from various standpoints and disciplines. This volume discusses the need for ecological integrity as a major guiding principle in a variety of policy areas, to counter the present ecological and economic crises with their multiple effects on human rights. The book celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Global Ecological Integrity Group and reassesses the basic concept of ecological integrity in order to show how a future beyond catastrophe and disaster is in fact possible, but only if civil society and ultimately legal regimes acknowledge the necessity to consider ecointegrity as a primary factor in decision-making. This is key to the support of basic rights to clean air and water, for halting climate change, and also the basic rights of women and indigenous people. As the authors clearly show, all these rights ultimately depend upon accepting policies that acknowledge the pivotal role of ecological integrity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’écotoxicochimie, est une nouvelle branche de l’écologie qui se propose d’aborder les atteintes néfastes des produits chimiques sur l’environnement et la santé, à partir des données récentes de la chimie et de la biologie, en s’appuyant sur la toxicochimie, discipline d’interface élaborée en 1979. Les hydrocarbures, famille de base des composés organiques, ont été sélectionnés comme première approche dans Écotoxicochimie – Applications aux hydrocarbures. Ces produits chimiques sont à l’origine de la carbochimie et de la pétrochimie et leur prise en compte a permis de jeter les bases d’une prévention des risques aussi bien toxicochimiques qu’écotoxicochimiques. Risques liés en particulier à toutes les pollutions hydrocarbonées qui devraient être beaucoup mieux encadrées, tant en milieu domestique que dans les milieux de travail ou dans l’environnement. Ainsi ces hydrocarbures sont impliqués dans des pollutions maritimes retentissantes, qui restent malheureusement toujours d’actualité. Si les pollutions engendrées par l’exploitation maritime du pétrole sont également très inquiétantes, un autre sujet apparaît de plus en plus préoccupant avec l’extraction du gaz et des huiles de schiste, dont la technique mise en œuvre faisant appel à la fracturation hydraulique horizontale, est constituée d’un véritable cocktail chimique à faire frémir bien des toxicologues avertis… Sans précédent dans la littérature scientifique, toutes les propriétés toxiques des composés les plus utilisés sont présentées clairement dans cet ouvrage, à partir des références bibliographiques les plus actualisées. En tant que chimistes, spécialistes en toxicochimie, soucieux de comprendre pourquoi certains produits chimiques peuvent être dangereux pour la santé et l’environnement, les auteurs André Picot et Frédéric Montandon associés à plusieurs autres spécialistes, présentent, à la fin de l’ouvrage, une approche préventive, basée sur la sélection de produits de substitution notamment pour les solvants organiques. Trente-quatre fiches résumées dites de ToxicoÉcotoxicoChimie (FRTEC) devraient permettre de faire le bon choix parmi les principaux hydrocarbures couramment utilisés, en particulier comme solvants, et ceci dans de multiples disciplines. Par son approche novatrice, cet ouvrage sera indispensable aux professionnels des industries, des PMI et PME de tous les domaines traitant ou utilisant les hydrocarbures ou leurs dérivés, mais aussi aux responsables de santé publique ou des milieux de travail, aux organisations gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, et aux écologistes de tous horizons… sans oublier les enseignants et étudiants en chimie, en biologie et en écologie désireux de mieux comprendre pourquoi la chimie est à la base de la vie, qu’il nous faut protéger au mieux.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. Debates over science, facts, and values are pivotal in the struggle for environmental justice. For decades, environmental justice activists have campaigned against the misuse of science, engaging in community-led citizen science that champions knowledge produced by and for ordinary people living with environmental risks and hazards. However, post-truth politics have threatened science itself. Toxic truths examines the relationship between environmental justice and citizen science, focusing on enduring issues and new challenges in a post-truth age. The volume features a range of community-based participatory environmental health and justice research projects that seek to establish different ways of sensing, witnessing, and interpreting environmental injustice. From struggles in American hog country and contaminated indigenous communities, to local environmental controversies in Spain and China, this volume examines political strategies for seeking environmental justice. With international, interdisciplinary contributions from distinguished authors, emerging scholars and community activists, Toxic truths is essential reading for those seeking to understand the cutting edge of citizen science and activism around the world.

Download or read book Nanoethics and Nanotoxicology written by Philippe Houdy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanobiotechnology is a fast developing field of research and application in many domains such as in medicine, pharmacy, cosmetics and agro-industry. The book addresses the lastest fundamental results on nanotoxicology and nanoethics, and the enormous range of potential applications in the fields of medical diagnostics, nanomedicine, and food and water administration. Nanoscale objects have properties leading to specific kinds of behaviour, sometimes exacerbating their chemical reactivity, physical behaviour, or potential to penetrate deeply within living organisms. Hence it is important to ensure the responsible and safe development of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies. This fourth volume in the Nanoscience series should make its mark, by presenting the state of the art in the fields of nanotoxicology and nanoethics. This is the first book to combine both scientific knowledge and ethical and social recommendations. It also presents specific policies on nanotechnologies set up by national and international authorities. This book is of interest to engineers, researchers, and graduate students.

Download or read book Handbook of Life Course Occupational Health written by Morten Wahrendorf and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments in research on the relationship between occupational trajectories over the life course and health. It uncovers the impact of far-reaching changes of work and employment, as evidenced by increased flexibility, discontinuity, and technological innovation, and offers insights into recent theoretical and methodological developments addressing this challenge. In its main parts, it presents the best evidence to readers about the following topics: early life influences on (un)healthy work, chronic exposure to occupational risks; nonstandard employment and poor health; work continuation with chronic disease; occupational determinants of healthy aging. In its final part, it discusses policy implications of current knowledge and points to the need of developing new solutions in research and practice, not least in times of climate crisis and the new pandemic. The important handbook has been prepared by a distinguished editorial team, with chapters written by prominent international experts. Despite its continuous reference to scientific knowledge it addresses its content to a broader, non-specialized readership.
