Book Whither the Child

Download or read book Whither the Child written by Eric P. Kaufmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birth rates are falling and fertility rates are well below replacement levels. At the same time, the economic crisis has forced governments to scale back public spending, reduce child support, and raise the retirement age, causing immense social conflict. Taking a step outside the disciplinary comfort zone, Whither the Child? asks how demography affects individuals and society. What does it feel like to live in a low fertility world? What are the consequences? Is there even a problem - economically, culturally and morally? No other book confronts so many dimensions of the low fertility issue and none engage with the thorny issues of child psychology, parenting, family, and social policy that are tackled head-on here.

Download or read book The Book of Why written by Judea Pearl and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Turing Award-winning computer scientist and statistician shows how understanding causality has revolutionized science and will revolutionize artificial intelligence "Correlation is not causation." This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohibition on causal talk. Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cut through a century of confusion and established causality -- the study of cause and effect -- on a firm scientific basis. His work explains how we can know easy things, like whether it was rain or a sprinkler that made a sidewalk wet; and how to answer hard questions, like whether a drug cured an illness. Pearl's work enables us to know not just whether one thing causes another: it lets us explore the world that is and the worlds that could have been. It shows us the essence of human thought and key to artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to understand either needs The Book of Why.

Book Gastrointestinal and Liver Effects of Fruits and their Synergism with Drug Therapy  Exploring Possible Mechanisms of Action

Download or read book Gastrointestinal and Liver Effects of Fruits and their Synergism with Drug Therapy Exploring Possible Mechanisms of Action written by Irwin Rose Alencar De Menezes and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-07-30 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, there is a significant increase in demand for food and food products that provide health benefits beyond their nutritional aspects. These benefits can be used to treat or prevent several diseases through the interactions of phytoconstituents with biological targets or through antioxidant properties. Another important aspect is the synergism of therapy with drugs and phytoconstituents originating from fruits, which can modify the bioavailability or efficacy, increasing future opportunities for drug development. In addition, these phytochemicals can be incorporated as an alternative for development, with new applications for multitarget therapeutic using a better understanding of biochemical and electrical effects or molecular interaction in a biologic system.

Book Adverse Effects of Treatment of Hepatitis C with Peginterferon alpha 2A in Patients on Hemodialysis

Download or read book Adverse Effects of Treatment of Hepatitis C with Peginterferon alpha 2A in Patients on Hemodialysis written by Budimir Rakonjac and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hepatitis C infection (HCV) and its associated complications are significant causes of morbidity and mortality in hemodialysis patients. This article highlights the importance of HCV prevention in patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis. The book reviews the benefits and potential adverse effects of peginterferon alpha (PEG-IFN-α) therapy, analyzing “two sides of the same coin,” so to speak. The uniqueness of the book is reflected in the national and multicenter analysis of the effects of PEG-IFN-α therapy in Montenegro, which provides the possibility of comparing the obtained results with the experiences of clinicians (nephrologists, pharmacologists, and postgraduate research doctors) from other countries. This book intends to raise awareness in healthcare communities and individuals about the importance of HCV prevention in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Book Global Waves of Debt

Download or read book Global Waves of Debt written by M. Ayhan Kose and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economy has experienced four waves of rapid debt accumulation over the past 50 years. The first three debt waves ended with financial crises in many emerging market and developing economies. During the current wave, which started in 2010, the increase in debt in these economies has already been larger, faster, and broader-based than in the previous three waves. Current low interest rates mitigate some of the risks associated with high debt. However, emerging market and developing economies are also confronted by weak growth prospects, mounting vulnerabilities, and elevated global risks. A menu of policy options is available to reduce the likelihood that the current debt wave will end in crisis and, if crises do take place, will alleviate their impact.

Book Ending Discrimination Against People with Mental and Substance Use Disorders

Download or read book Ending Discrimination Against People with Mental and Substance Use Disorders written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-09-03 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estimates indicate that as many as 1 in 4 Americans will experience a mental health problem or will misuse alcohol or drugs in their lifetimes. These disorders are among the most highly stigmatized health conditions in the United States, and they remain barriers to full participation in society in areas as basic as education, housing, and employment. Improving the lives of people with mental health and substance abuse disorders has been a priority in the United States for more than 50 years. The Community Mental Health Act of 1963 is considered a major turning point in America's efforts to improve behavioral healthcare. It ushered in an era of optimism and hope and laid the groundwork for the consumer movement and new models of recovery. The consumer movement gave voice to people with mental and substance use disorders and brought their perspectives and experience into national discussions about mental health. However over the same 50-year period, positive change in American public attitudes and beliefs about mental and substance use disorders has lagged behind these advances. Stigma is a complex social phenomenon based on a relationship between an attribute and a stereotype that assigns undesirable labels, qualities, and behaviors to a person with that attribute. Labeled individuals are then socially devalued, which leads to inequality and discrimination. This report contributes to national efforts to understand and change attitudes, beliefs and behaviors that can lead to stigma and discrimination. Changing stigma in a lasting way will require coordinated efforts, which are based on the best possible evidence, supported at the national level with multiyear funding, and planned and implemented by an effective coalition of representative stakeholders. Ending Discrimination Against People with Mental and Substance Use Disorders: The Evidence for Stigma Change explores stigma and discrimination faced by individuals with mental or substance use disorders and recommends effective strategies for reducing stigma and encouraging people to seek treatment and other supportive services. It offers a set of conclusions and recommendations about successful stigma change strategies and the research needed to inform and evaluate these efforts in the United States.
