Download or read book Aufbruch im Mittelalter written by Manuela Gloor and published by Jan Thorbecke Verlag. This book was released on 2010 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dem popularen Bild von 'Finsternis' und Stagnation zum Trotz schatzten auch die Menschen des Mittelalters Verbesserungen der Lebensverhaltnisse in Wirtschaft, Politik und Gesellschaft. Zentrale Bereiche der spatmittelalterlichen Welt zeichneten sich durch Innovationen aus. Diese sind aber nicht auf einen modernen Fortschritts-Begriff zu reduzieren, sondern konnten auch der Aufrechterhaltung traditioneller Ordnungen unter geanderten Umstanden dienen. Experten aus Deutschland, den Niederlanden und der Schweiz zeigen, wie sich in Technik, Finanzwirtschaft und Administration, aber auch in Bildung und Politik Neues durchsetzte, oft aber auch auf Widerstand stiess.

Download or read book Nefarious Crimes Contested Justice written by Joanne M. Ferraro and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nefarious Crimes, Contested Justice also traces shifting attitudes toward illegitimacy and paternity from the late sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries. Both the Catholic Church and the Republic of Venice tried to enforce moral discipline and regulate sex and reproduction. Unmarried pregnant women were increasingly stigmatized for engaging in sex. Their claims for damages because of seduction or rape were largely unproven, and the priests and laymen that they were involved with were often acquitted of any wrongdoing. The lack of institutional support for single motherhood and the exculpation of fathers frequently led to abortion, infant abandonment, or even infant death.

Download or read book Neuropsychology of Cardiovascular Disease written by Shari R. Waldstein and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 675 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States and most westernized nations. Both CVDs and their risk factors confer substantial risk for stroke and dementia, but are also associated with more subtle changes in brain structure and function and cognitive performance prior to such devastating clinical outcomes. It has been suggested that there exists a continuum of brain abnormalities and cognitive difficulties associated with increasingly severe manifestations of cardiovascular risk factors and diseases that precede vascular cognitive impairment and may ultimately culminate in stroke or dementia. This second edition examines the relations of a host of behavioral and biomedical risk factors, in addition to subclinical and clinical CVDs, to brain and cognitive function. Associations with dementia and pre-dementia cognitive performance are reported, described, and discussed with a focus on underlying brain mechanisms. Future research agendas are suggested, and clinical implications are considered. The volume is a resource for professionals and students in neuropsychology, behavioral medicine, neurology, cardiology, cardiovascular and behavioral epidemiology, gerontology, geriatric medicine, nursing, adult developmental psychology, and for other physicians and health care professionals who work with patients with, or at risk for, CVDs.
