Book Synopsis Remaking the Human by : Alvaro Jarrín
Download or read book Remaking the Human written by Alvaro Jarrín and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The technological capacity to transform biology - repairing, reshaping and replacing body parts, chemicals and functions – is now part of our lives. Humanity is confronted with a variety of affordable and non-invasive 'enhancement technologies': anti-ageing medicine, aesthetic surgery, cognitive and sexual enhancers, lifestyle drugs, prosthetics and hormone supplements. This collection focuses on why people find these practices so seductive and provides ethnographic insights into people’s motives and aspirations as they embrace or reject enhancement technologies, which are closely entangled with negotiations over gender, class, age, nationality and ethnicity.

Book Synopsis The Sovereign Debt Crisis, the EU and Welfare State Reform by : Caroline De La Porte
Download or read book The Sovereign Debt Crisis, the EU and Welfare State Reform written by Caroline De La Porte and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a much-needed analysis of how the European Union (EU) has affected welfare state reforms in the Member States most severely hit by the 2008 economic crisis. Bringing together leading European social policy researchers, it shows that the EU’s responses to the sovereign debt crisis have changed the nature of EU intervention into domestic welfare states, with an enhanced focus on fiscal consolidation, increased surveillance and enforcement of EU measures. The authors demonstrate how this represents an unprecedented degree of EU involvement in domestic social and labour market policies. Readers will also discover how greater demands to attain balanced budgets have been institutionalized, leading to tensions with the EU's social investment strategy. This highly informative edited collection will engage students, social policy practitioners and researchers, scholars of the welfare state and political scientists. “/div>div
Book Synopsis Health Education and Prevention by : Frank Pizon
Download or read book Health Education and Prevention written by Frank Pizon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social representations, beliefs, values and knowledge are just some of the aspects that affect how the beneficiaries of preventative health measures perceive their wellbeing. Health Education and Prevention questions and analyzes these concepts in order to consider new ways of theorizing patients’ conceptions of their health. From a methodological point of view, these analyses are put into practice with the design of prevention tools and devices. The use of a corpora of photographs is particularly meaningful in this respect. This book offers an authoritative perspective by noting important points of vigilance in training, and especially by distinguishing instructive contents conducive to the development of an explicit health pedagogy for more effective prevention measures. A model for categorizing situations integrating both educational and healthcare paths is also proposed.
Book Synopsis Cultural Differences and the Practice of Sexual Medicine by : David L. Rowland
Download or read book Cultural Differences and the Practice of Sexual Medicine written by David L. Rowland and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-27 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is twofold: to promote an awareness of cultural differences in connection with sexual medicine among health care providers, and to demonstrate how such differences are relevant to the care and treatment of patients with sexual issues. Individual sexuality represents the cumulative effects of biological, psychological, and cultural influences. Yet much of the study of sexuality—including issues ranging from sexual identity to sexual response—has been conducted through a Western lens. Although a substantial body of work in anthropology has taken up the study of human sexuality from a cross-cultural perspective, two points are notable. First, this work seldom crosses the desks of medical and psychological health practitioners, and second, the relevance of specific cultural differences is rarely apparent to the typical sexual health practitioner. To address this situation, this book adopts a global perspective, focusing on how cultural practices and values can impact health care, treatment, and outcomes. In this regard, it covers three broad domains: Sexual Identity and Orientation; Sexual Response and Dysfunction; and Sexual Diversity. Each chapter consists of two parts: a general description of the relevant issues, and a discussion of how these issues can be relevant to clinical practice. The book offers a valuable, practical tool for specialists in sexual medicine and sexual psychology, for sexual healthcare givers, and for sexological researchers who want to better serve their patients by developing an awareness of and sensitivity to cultural differences, and by providing a framework for dealing with issues of sexuality and sexual health that takes cultural values into consideration, while adhering to best practices in patient care.

Book Synopsis Euthanasia: Searching for the Full Story by : Timothy Devos
Download or read book Euthanasia: Searching for the Full Story written by Timothy Devos and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-17 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book has been written by ten Belgian health care professionals, nurses, university professors and doctors specializing in palliative care and ethicists who, together, raise questions concerning the practice of euthanasia. They share their experiences and reflections born out of their confrontation with requests for euthanasia and end-of-life support in a country where euthanasia has been decriminalized since 2002 and is now becoming a trivial topic.Far from evoking any militancy, these stories of life and death present the other side of a reality needs to be evaluated more rigorously.Featuring multidisciplinary perspectives, this though-provoking and original book is intended not only for caregivers but also for anyone who questions the meaning of death and suffering, as well as the impact of a law passed in 2002. Presenting real-world cases and experiences, it highlights the complexity of situations and the consequences of the euthanasia law.This book appeals to palliative care providers, hematologists, oncologists, psychiatrists, nurses and health professionals as well as researchers, academics, policy-makers, and social scientists working in health care. It is also a unique resource for those in countries where the decriminalization of euthanasia is being considered. Sometimes shocking, it focuses on facts and lived experiences to challenge readers and offer insights into euthanasia in Belgium.

Book excerpt: The conference of the European Institute for social security, on the social security and the economic crisis, prepared by its Colloque, held in Tole do in 1981, was held from the 30th of September untill the 2nd of October in Zoetermeer, the Netherlands. The Yearbook 1982 contains the reports presented at the Conference in Zoetermeer, which was opened by the Dutch Minister of Social Affairs and Employment, L. de Graaf. The Conference had before it ten national reports and seven synthesis reports (Paul 0 'Higgins, Benefits in general; Jan Pierik, Financing; Winfried Schmahl, Pensions; Yves Saint Jours, Health; Pasquale Sandulli, Unemployment; Martin Partington, Minimum income and family allowances; Jef van Langendonck, Social Security and Economic Insecurity). Most unfortunately Paul O'Higgins did not deliver the written text of his report and we regret that for that reason, we cannot include his report in this yearbook. The Conference, which got the hospitality of the Dutch Social Security Council in Zoetermeer, was very well organised and financed by the Dutch social security institutions and the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment. The Institute wants to express its sincere gratitude to Mr. J. Oosterhuis and his collegues and to the ladies of the secretariat Annemie Dancot, Jose Goes, Joke Torenburg and Lisette Veldkamp.

Book Synopsis Écosystèmes forestiers des Caraïbes by :
Download or read book Écosystèmes forestiers des Caraïbes written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2009 with total page 826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grâce à la grande diversité des organisations biologiques, notamment des bio-systèmes forestiers, la Caraïbe fait partie des 34 Hotspots actuels de la biosphère. C'est une aire géographique extraordinaire pour l'évolution du vivant, car les différents canevas régionaux - géomorphologiques, pédologiques, climatiques - associés aux îles, à la bordure continentale et à l'isthme ont induit une pluralité de biotopes. Ce qui a conditionné autant de communautés floristiques et faunistiques, de physionomies et de paysages. Tous les écosystèmes de l'espace intertropical y sont représentés. Néanmoins, les sociétés successives depuis la découverte des Amériques, tout en utilisant les ressources offertes par les écosystèmes du Nouveau Monde, les ont architecturés et les paysages notamment végétaux du présent sont des témoins pertinents de ce processus. L'érosion biologique régulière, consubstantielle à la croissance des productions humaines, reste, encore aujourd'hui, un danger pour le développement de ces territoires : bien des aspects floristiques et faunistiques sont encore inconnus. En quelque sorte, dans cette partie du monde la recherche est " insaturée ". Le colloque de décembre 2005 sur les " Écosystèmes forestiers des Caraïbes " organisé par le Conseil Général de la Martinique et piloté scientifiquement par l'Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (sous la direction de Philippe Joseph), a mis en relief la problématique de la biodiversité des terres qui enserrent la mer des Caraïbes. Et, plus largement, celle de la planète tout entière confrontée au changement climatique et à ses conséquences à long terme sur les milieux anthropisés, singulièrement les modifications des frontières écosystémiques et les espèces envahissantes. La mise en perspective des données obtenues par les chercheurs de champs disciplinaires variés, qui relèvent des sciences exactes, humaines, juridiques et économiques, a fourni une somme importante de connaissances et de méthodes. Celles-ci permettent d'éclairer la décision publique, en particulier pour améliorer les outils de gestion et de planification des forêts caribéennes. Par cette initiative, le Conseil Général de la Martinique, à l'instar de son président, a indiqué la voie qui devrait permettre, à long terme, une conservation et une valorisation de toutes les diversités biologiques. Au regard des modifications climatiques futures, en effet, le potentiel évolutif des bio-systèmes doit être, par tous les moyens, préservé.
