In the twenty-first century, the gap between those who have more and those who have less is growing: 1 per cent of the world owns as much as the other 99 per cent. Should we be worried? Christopher Steed, author of the acclaimed A Question of Worth, argues that inequality does indeed matter: that economic fairness is one of the defining issues of our time. In a world conditioned by social media, enabling intensified social comparison, the anxieties and effects of contemporary inequality are a cause for huge concern. Despite a wealth of research around inequality most studies have concentrated on its quantitative aspects. In A Question of Inequality, Christopher Steed is concerned with exploring why inequality matters, what it means for those who find themselves victims of it, and what can be done about it. He probes what it means to experience inequality, drawing out case studies on the effects of poverty. In proposing a theory of social relativity the author provides new insights into the effects and meaning of inequality and makes an original and important contribution to a key issue facing the world today.

Critical Theory and Disability explores social and ontological issues encountered by present-day disabled people, applying ideas from disability studies and phenomenology. It focuses on disabling contexts in order to highlight and criticize the ontological assumptions of contemporary society, particularly those related to the meaning of human being. In empirical terms, the book explores critically social practices that undermine disabled people's well being, drawing on cases from contemporary Bulgaria. It includes in-depth examination of key mechanisms such as disability assessment, personal assistance (direct payments) and disability-based discrimination. On this basis, wider sociological and ontological claims are made concerning the body, identity, otherness, and exclusion.

Автор: Herbst Christopher H., Elshalakani Amr, Kakietek Jakub Название: Scaling Up Nutrition in the Arab Republic of Egypt: Investing in a Healthy Future ISBN: 1464814678 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781464814679 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 33400.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Malnutrition is a huge burden on the Arab Republic of Egypt's economy. Undernutrition--manifested by poor linear growth (stunting), wasting, and micronutrient deficiencies in children, and by anemia among women of reproductive age--collectively saps an estimated two percent of Egypt's annual gross domestic product (GDP) through forgone productivity and health care costs, representing an economic hemorrhaging of billions of U.S. dollars per year. Adding to this challenge is the co-occurence of overweight and obesity among children, leading to a malnutrition double burden. Scaling Up Nutrition in the Arab Republic of Egypt aims to inform the development of a nutrition policy and strategy and to guide nutrition investments over the coming years. It reviews Egypt's nutrition situation, the interventions currently in place, and opportunities to scale up the response. In addition, it analyzes the fiscal implications of scaling up key interventions, including estimates of the costs and benefits and an assessment of the required fiscal space. It argues that any interventions to address the burden of malnutrition need to also take into account the coexistence of overweight and obesity.

Автор: Leslie Ann Lytle Название: Designing Interventions to Promote Community Health: A Multilevel, Stepwise Approach ISBN: 1433836505 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781433836503 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 64370.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book articulates a clear four-phase process for planning, creating, implementing, and evaluating multilevel community health promotion interventions using a framework focusing on determinants from the individual, physical, and social environments. It breaks down each phase into detailed yet easy-to-follow steps that review important procedures, like identifying a behaviorally based problem within a community, choosing the underlying behavioral determinants to be targeted by the intervention, selecting intervention components and strategies, and evaluating outcomes to improve and further disseminate the intervention. Guidelines for engaging community members in the entire process, building teams, developing a manual of procedures, conducting pilot studies, and the importance of formative and process evaluation are reviewed as well. Also presented are instructions for adapting interventions for new communities. Feature boxes highlight key information and practical takeaways for students and interventionists. Detailed case examples that highlight various health promotion efforts bring the four-phase design process to life, including a recurring example about a school-based intervention to reduce student consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages that follows the process from beginning to end.
