Book Synopsis Penser autrement le vieillissement by : Martial Van der Linden
Download or read book Penser autrement le vieillissement written by Martial Van der Linden and published by Primento. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Des outils pour aider les personnes âgées à affronter la démence et les maladies mentales. Les prédictions concernant le nombre de personnes âgées qui souffriront de démence en 2050 suscitent de fréquentes annonces alarmistes, prévoyant un « tsunami » de cas qui submergerait les familles et les soignants et qui imposerait un fardeau économique insupportable à la société. Afin de prévenir cette « crise de la démence », la position biomédicale dominante considère qu’il faut placer un maximum de moyens sur la recherche neurobiologique, le diagnostic et les traitements pharmacologiques, afin d’essayer de différer et, finalement, de guérir la démence. Ce livre vise tout d’abord à expliquer le contexte social et culturel dans lequel s’est développée cette approche biomédicale de la démence, qui a conduit à une médicalisation croissante du vieillissement. Il a également pour objectif de décrire les limites de cette approche et de montrer en quoi le vieillissement cérébral et cognitif semble être modulé par de multiples facteurs (biomédicaux, psychologiques, sociaux, culturels, etc.), intervenant tout au long de la vie. Les implications de ce changement de perspective sont ensuite identifiées. Pour les auteurs, il convient d’allouer davantage de ressources à la prévention et de développer des pratiques d’évaluation et d’intervention psychosociales qui prennent en compte les personnes âgées dans leur individualité. L’objectif ? Aider ces personnes à maintenir un sens à leur vie, un sentiment de bien-être et de dignité, ainsi qu’une véritable place dans la société. Ils préconisent également un changement de culture dans les structures d’hébergement à long terme pour personnes âgées. Cet ouvrage engagé, qui défend une approche humaniste du vieillissement, se termine par un ensemble de réflexions sur les droits et la citoyenneté des personnes âgées. Destiné aux professionnels de la santé, cet ouvrage de référence permet d'appréhender d'un point de vue éthique et psychologique les troubles cognitifs de la vieillesse. CE QU'EN PENSE LA CRITIQUE Un humanisme face au vieillissement et une clarté de vue, qui pourrait élargir le modèle-même de la maladie dite d’Alzheimer. - Françoise Laeckmann, Wolvendael Magazine On va retrouver dans leur ouvrage, et c’est sans surprise, et avec plaisir, l’humanisme face au vieillissement et une clarté de vue qui fait fi du modèle restreint de la maladie d’Alzheimer réduit à une atteinte cognitive dégénérative. - Philippe Thomas, La revue de gériatrie Ce livre, qui au premier abord pourrait paraître polémique, constitue une présentation certes sélective, mais très riche, pour mieux comprendre la question du vieillissement cérébral, notamment au cours du très grand âge. - Emmanuel Monfort, Santé publique À PROPOS DES AUTEURS Martial Van der Linden est docteur en psychologie et professeur aux Universités de Genève et de Liège. Il possède une longue expérience clinique, puisqu’il a examiné pendant plus de quinze ans des patients cérébro-lésés dans le service de Neuropsychologie de l’Hôpital de Bavière à Liège. Il dirige également l’unité de psychopathologie et neuropsychologie cognitive de l’Université de Genève ainsi que le secteur de psychopathologie cognitive de l’Université de Liège.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le vieillissement de la population mondiale, témoin de l'efficacité de la lutte contre les grandes maladies, entraîne l'apparition de problèmes médicaux et sociaux nouveaux. Ceux posés par le vieillissement de notre cerveau sont sans doute les plus redoutables. Il peut se traduire par des signes bénins (troubles de la mémoire) mais aussi, dans ses formes pathologiques (démence), par des troubles graves des capacités intellectuelles. La maladie d'Alzheimer est, de loin, la forme la plus fréquente de démence. Les démences frappent aujourd'hui plusieurs centaines de milliers de personnes en France. Nous ne connaissons ni les causes, ni le traitement du vieillissement du cerveau. Nous ne savons pas non plus si la maladie d'Alzheimer représente une accélération du vieillissement normal ou une maladie autonome. C'est dire l'importance de promouvoir un effort exceptionnel de recherche dans ce domaine. L'étude du vieillissement est aussi un moyen privilégié d'exploration du cerveau humain, mettant en jeu les méthodes les plus modernes des neurosciences. La culture scientifique, quoi qu'on en dise, n'existe pas : elle ne saurait être assimilée à une simple information sur les résultats de la recherche. C'est aux chercheurs eux-mêmes à la mettre en forme, de telle sorte qu'elle puisse s'intégrer à la culture générale. Cette collection donne une voix à cette élaboration aujourd'hui nécessaire. Les meilleurs spécialistes internationaux y mènent une réflexion commune sur les incidences intellectuelles et sociales des bouleversements techniques provoqués par le développement actuel de la science. Chaque volume, conçu comme un ouvrage de référence, regroupe les points de vue actuellement les plus significatifs sur une question donnée.

Book Synopsis Anti-ageing Medicine by : Astrid Stuckelberger
Download or read book Anti-ageing Medicine written by Astrid Stuckelberger and published by vdf Hochschulverlag AG. This book was released on 2008 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 21st century technological development is revolutionizing medicine and health care, bringing new hopes to human suffering by offering cures and treatments which were unthinkable a few decades ago. This is where anti-ageing medicine finds its niche. Anti-ageing medicine aims at slowing, arresting, and reversing phenomena associated with ageing by merging biotechnological innovation and engineered solutions. Ideally, by means of the newest medical technology, the "body machinery" should be kept fit and at peak performance all life long. Early detection of age-related dysfunction should thus be "fixed" at any age with interventions such as metabolic fine tuning, enhancement, regeneration, restoration or replacement of "body parts" (i.e. organs, skin, bone or muscle). It covers a vast array of domains: from cell therapy to pharmaceutical interventions, from bio-surgery to aesthetic surgery, from human enhancement to fortified food, from smart housing and robots to toxic-free environments. Anti-ageing medicine holds promises but also significant risks and safety issues which are addressesd in this book. It presents the latest scientific evidence on what works or does not work. It also provides public policy recommendations to ensure the protection of consumers and their rights while encouraging research and development. This book is intended for academics, health professionals, business persons, consumers and policy-makers interested in the latest evidence and ethical issues about anti-ageing medicine.
Book Synopsis European Integration and the Governance of Higher Education and Research by : Alberto Amaral
Download or read book European Integration and the Governance of Higher Education and Research written by Alberto Amaral and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-10-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The high level Douro seminars are now a well-established tradition in the annual activities promoted by Hedda, a European consortium of nine centres and ins- tutes devoted to research on higher education, and CIPES, its Portuguese associated centre. At the seminars, each member of a small group of invited researchers presents and discusses an original research-based paper that is revised afterwards taking into account the comments of the participating colleagues. The revised papers form the basis for the annual thematic book published by Springer in the book series called Higher Education Dynamics (HEDY). Paying tribute to the regularity of the seminars, it was decided that the volumes originating from the initiative would be collected in a ‘series in the series’ called the Douro Series. Previous seminars were dedicated to in-depth analyses of different aspects of higher education systems and institutions, including institutional governance, the emergence of managerialism, markets as instruments of public policy, cost-sharing and accessibility of students to higher education and developments in quality assurance. The present volume aims at analysing the change process which the European university is undergoing as a consequence of European integration efforts. In the case of higher education, these have materialised, amongst other things, in the - plementation of the Bologna process, while the Lisbon summit also has important consequences for the university. In March 2000, the Lisbon European Council set the goal for the EU to become the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based society in the world by 2010.
Book Synopsis Institutionalizing Gender by : Jessie Hewitt
Download or read book Institutionalizing Gender written by Jessie Hewitt and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Institutionalizing Gender analyzes the relationship between class, gender, and psychiatry in France from 1789 to 1900, an era noteworthy for the creation of the psychiatric profession, the development of a national asylum system, and the spread of bourgeois gender values. Asylum doctors in nineteenth-century France promoted the notion that manliness was synonymous with rationality, using this "fact" to pathologize non-normative behaviors and confine people who did not embody mainstream gender expectations to asylums. And yet, this gendering of rationality also had the power to upset prevailing dynamics between men and women. Jessie Hewitt argues that the ways that doctors used dominant gender values to find "cures" for madness inadvertently undermined both medical and masculine power—in large part because the performance of gender, as a pathway to health, had to be taught; it was not inherent. Institutionalizing Gender examines a series of controversies and clinical contexts where doctors' ideas about gender and class simultaneously legitimated authority and revealed unexpected opportunities for resistance. Thanks to generous funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, through The Sustainable History Monograph Pilot, the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access volumes from Cornell Open (cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other repositories.

Book Synopsis The Postdivorce Family by : Ross A. Thompson
Download or read book The Postdivorce Family written by Ross A. Thompson and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 1999-03-31 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With about one half of all marriages ending in divorce today, it is safe to say that nearly everyone will be or has been affected by divorce in some way. For many, it does not mean the end to a family. Focusing on the consequences of divorce for children, The Postdivorce Family examines the stressors that divorce can create; adjustment problems among children of divorce; the issue of resilience for children; and individual differences in the psychological adjustment to divorce. The authors also examine the parents′ responsibilities after divorce, including custody issues, child support orders, and nonresidential parenting. This book concludes with a section that explores the effects of a high divorce rate in society, including how the prevalence of divorce has changed the family form and structural factors that have contributed to various social problems. With this volume, the authors hope to incite analysis and reflection of the issues surrounding divorce and their implications for public policy. This book integrates the empirical research and policy perspectives of several scholars in various disciplines including psychology, sociology, human development, law, and social work.
