The Right to Health
This interdisciplinary study engages with the fields of human rights law, health law, and public health. It analyses how the internationally guaranteed human ‘right to health’ is realized by States at a national level. It brings together scholars from more than ten different countries, with each of them analyzing the right to health in their country or region. They all focus on a particular theme that is important in their country, such as health inequalities, the Millennium Development Goals, or the privatization of healthcare. This book is relevant for scholars, practitioners and policy makers in the field of human rights law, health law, public health and the intersection between these three fields.

Bioethics and Racism
This volume aims to explore some of the practices, conflicts, negotiations and struggles at the interplay of bioethics and racism. This requires shedding light on the hegemonic power relationships that condemn some population groups to a condition of subjugation, suffering, and oppression. By unpacking notions that have been taken for granted and dismantling rhetorics that are veiled in discourses and rationales pertaining to race and racism, we highlight possible ways in which bioethics can operate across disciplinary boundaries and strengthen its connection with equity and social justice, which also entails striving for a "bioethics in action".
The Vision Zero Petition
In the aftermath of losing our two youngest daughters, AnnaLeah (17) and Mary (13), due to a truck underride crash on May 4, 2013, we became aware of far too many facts about tra ffic fatalities. In an e ffort to do more than just put a bandaid on the problem, we launched a campaign to call for major change in how safety laws and regulations are determined. Th€is book is a compilation of our request for a National Vision Zero Goal and for a Vision Zero rulemaking policy. It includes our petition letters to President Obama and DOT Secretary Foxx--along with the signatures and comments of thousands of people who signed the petitions and are speaking up with us to call for a move Towards Zero Crash Deaths & Serious Injuries.

Whats Up?
A expressão da língua inglesa "What's up?" para os nativos significa "Quais são as novidades?", "O que está acontecendo? "O que me conta de novo?" Nossas vidas cotidianas, não há como negar, foram invadidas por vários aplicativos, dentre eles o "WhatsApp", nome inspirado, obviamente, na expressão inglesa que dá título a esta obra. É a nova realidade. Tecnologia em todas as áreas, incluindo a jurídica. Nesta obra, é exatamente esta a nossa proposta, trazer o que está acontecendo, o que vem sendo discutido no Direito, o que há de novo, o que nos desafia neste mundo inundado pela tecnologia. Em 15 capítulos, 38 autores - em coautorias que permitem a multi e a interdisciplinariedade em colaboração internacional - se propõem, em suas respectivas áreas de conhecimento, a compartilhar com os leitores o que há de novo. Assim, ao contrário da resposta usual à pergunta "What's up?" que costuma ser "Nothing special!" ou seja "O de sempre!", neste livro há o novo, o que precisa ser estudado, aprofundado e encaminhado no Direito. Fica aqui o nosso convite à leitura e à busca por soluções.

A Contested Art
When New Mexico became an alternative cultural frontier for avant-garde Anglo-American writers and artists in the early twentieth century, the region was still largely populated by Spanish-speaking Hispanos. Anglos who came in search of new personal and aesthetic freedoms found inspiration for their modernist ventures in Hispano art forms. Yet, when these arrivistes elevated a particular model of Spanish colonial art through their preservationist endeavors and the marketplace, practicing Hispano artists found themselves working under a new set of patronage relationships and under new aesthetic expectations that tied their art to a static vision of the Spanish colonial past. In A Contested Ar...
Disclosure na saúde
Esta obra, única e inédita no país, trata de uma temática de extrema relevância e de impacto prático, o disclosure, que consiste na resposta a ser dada quando algo inesperado acontece nos cuidados em saúde e acarreta danos para o paciente. Essa resposta se fundamenta em um preceito basilar constitutivo das relações humanas, qual seja, a confiança entre as pessoas, o que pressupõe dizer a verdade e não ocultar acontecimentos que digam respeito diretamente àquele que sofreu as suas consequências. Assim, o disclosure é, antes de tudo, a manifestação da honestidade do sistema de saúde, pensando para além dos profissionais diretamente envolvidos em um evento. Isto é, um sistem...
