Este libro pretende ir ms all del marco jurdico de la Ley de Promocin de la Autonoma Personal y Atencin a las Personas en Situacin de Dependencia aprobada en diciembre de 2006, para plantear una reflexin sobre lo que ha supuesto, en cuanto al reconocimiento de un derecho subjetivo, en el mbito del sistema de servicios sociales, realizando un anlisis emprico en su primera etapa. Parte a priori del reconocimiento de la Ley 39/2006 como un avance histrico en el reconocimiento de los derechos sociales para la ciudadana desde una norma general del Estado que garantiza derecho a prestaciones y servicios desde un marco mnimo y homogneo. El texto se presenta de manera crtica, pero tambin contiene propuestas para abordar las dificultades iniciales del desarrollo de la ley, pretende contribuir a la reflexin y al debate sobre los heterogneos modelos y las distintas velocidades de aplicacin de la misma en las diferentes comunidades autnomas. Se dirige a aquellos profesionales que deseen incorporar una perspectiva sobre la ley que vaya ms all de los textos formales, ya sean estudiantes, profesionales en ejercicio, organizaciones o colectivos que trabajen en este sector de la intervencin social.
Este texto tiene especial interés al presentar una perspectiva específica del marco de actuación concreta en el que se va a desenvolver el trabajo de los egresados. Tanto en el marco teórico como en el conceptual, el trabajador social debe tener una perspectiva amplia en la que su trabajo cobra sentido. La atención socio-sanitaria se ha convertido en una seña de identidad de las cada vez más envejecidas sociedades desarrolladas, pero cualquier aproximación arqueológica a la historia de la disciplina y de la profesión confirmará que esta atención enraíza con sus propios orígenes. Las enfermedades mentales, las demencias y las adicciones, por ejemplo, exigen un esfuerzo de coordi...

At Frontiers our mission is to make science open – so that scientists can collaborate better and innovate faster to deliver the solutions that enable healthy lives on a healthy planet. We do this through our community driven Open Access journals. As researchers across the globe work on tackling the challenges facing immunology in the field of Microbial Immunology, they publish their success stories. However, it is equally important for researchers to discuss the challenges they face on the road to success, as most innovation begins with failure. Our Open Access publication allows researchers to discover the areas for development in the field and to provide a focus for future research. This Research Topic will highlight the importance of learning from one another in the scientific community and continue to highlight areas for progress. This Research Topic welcomes Reviews, Mini-reviews, Original Research, and Perspectives that highlight the field of Microbial Immunology from the following perspectives: - Recent success stories with a focus on the challenges faced and overcame. - Current challenges in the field and emerging research to innovate.
MicroRNAs in Medicine provides an access point into the current literature on microRNA for both scientists and clinicians, with an up-to-date look at what is happening in the emerging field of microRNAs and their relevance to medicine. Each chapter is a comprehensive review, with descriptions of the latest microRNA research written by international leaders in their field. Opening with an introduction to what microRNAs are and how they function, the book goes on to explore the role of microRNAs in normal physiological functions, infectious diseases, non-infectious diseases, cancer, circulating microRNAs as non-invasive biomarkers, and finally their potential as novel therapeutics. Including background information on the field as well as reviews of the latest research breakthroughs, MicroRNAs in Medicine is a one-stop source of information to satisfy the specialists and non-specialists alike, appealing to students, researchers, and clinicians interested in understanding the potential of microRNAs in medicine and research.
Of all the parasitic diseases, leishmaniasis is one of the most diverse, with a variety of manifestations, from relatively minor cutaneous lesions to deadly visceral infections. It is also widespread, causing human disease in the Americas, Asia, Europe and Africa. The environments in which this disease occurs range from desert to tropical jungle to urban habitats. Not surprisingly, the literature on this disease is written in a variety of languages including Portuguese, Arabic, English and French among others. This book provides a synopsis in English of much of the recent research on leishmaniasis, with a focus on the epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of the disease as described by researchers around the world, but with a focus on the research from Brazil and the Middle East.
Standard medicinal chemistry courses and texts are organized by classes of drugs with an emphasis on descriptions of their biological and pharmacological effects. This book represents a new approach based on physical organic chemical principles and reaction mechanisms that allow the reader to extrapolate to many related classes of drug molecules. The Second Edition reflects the significant changes in the drug industry over the past decade, and includes chapter problems and other elements that make the book more useful for course instruction. - New edition includes new chapter problems and exercises to help students learn, plus extensive references and illustrations - Clearly presents an organic chemist's perspective of how drugs are designed and function, incorporating the extensive changes in the drug industry over the past ten years - Well-respected author has published over 200 articles, earned 21 patents, and invented a drug that is under consideration for commercialization
This book provides an original perspective on a range of controversial issues in educational and social research through case studies of multi-disciplinary and mixed-method research involving children, teachers, schools and communities in Europe and the developing world. These case studies from researchers "across continents" and "across disciplines" explore a range of interesting issues, including the relevance of research approaches to very different national settings, and to the kinds of questions being asked; the barriers of language and culture between researcher and researched; articulating the thinking and feelings of very young children; the challenges of dealing with "partiality" of data; issues of identity, subjectivity and reflexivity; and transferring research approaches from one national setting to the problems posed in another.
