A OMS declara que "cuidado paliativo para crianças é o cuidado ativo total do corpo, mente e espÃrito, e também envolve o suporte à famÃlia. Ele começa quando a doença é diagnosticada e continua mesmo que a criança não receba tratamento direcionado à doença. Profissionais da saúde devem avaliar e aliviar sofrimentos fÃsicos, psicológicos e sociais de uma criança. O cuidado paliativo efetivo requer uma ampla abordagem multidisciplinar que inclui a famÃlia e utiliza os recursos disponÃveis na comunidade; ele pode ser implementado com sucesso mesmo se os recursos forem limitados. Pode ser prestado em instituições de cuidados terciários, em centros de saúde comunitários e...
A partir de experiências profissionais e pessoais, e de um recorte de sua pesquisa de doutorado com pacientes com câncer metástico, Cynthia Araújo constrói uma reflexão sensÃvel e contundente sobre o viver e o viver sob a perspectiva da morte. Como advogada da União, entre tantas atribuições, ela defendeu o Estado brasileiro em casos de fornecimento de medicamentos caros pelo SUS a pacientes com câncer. Centenas de processos e entrevistas com pacientes oncológicos depois, a autora levanta questões que interessam a cada um de nós, com câncer ou não, em A vida afinal. Remédios que podem prolongar um pouco a vida de quem espera deles uma cura ou décadas inteiras pela frente â€...
Although restorative justice is probably one of the most talked about topics in contemporary criminology, little has been written about how community involvement in restorative justice translates into practice. While advocates have presented the community as an essential pillar of restorative justice, the rationale for why and how this is the case remains underdeveloped and largely unchallenged. This book offers an empirical and theoretical explanation of what ‘community involvement’ means and what work it does in restorative justice. Drawing on an empirical case study and the wider sociological literature, The Role of Community in Restorative Justice examines the involvement of the comm...

Nearly sixty years after the Dani of the West Papuan highlands were first discovered by the West, Susan Meiselas presents this photographic record of their interactions with different groups. These range from Dutch colonialists right through to 1990s tourists.
Running waters are enormously diverse, ranging from torrential mountain brooks, to large lowland rivers, to great river systems whose basins occupy subcontinents. While this diversity makes river ecosystems seem overwhelmingly complex, a central theme of this volume is that the processes acting in running waters are general, although the settings are often unique. The past two decades have seen major advances in our knowledge of the ecology of streams and rivers. New paradigms have emerged, such as the river continuum and nutrient spiraling. Community ecologists have made impressive advances in documenting the occurrence of species interactions. The importance of physical processes in rivers...

On the one hand, nobody wants to be a dick. On the other hand, dicks are everywhere! They cut in line, talk behind our backs, recline into our seats, and even have the power to morph into trolls online. Their powers are impressive, but with a little foresight and thoughtfulness, we can take a stand against dickishness today. How Not to Be a Dick is packed with honest and straightforward advice, but it also includes playful illustrations showing two well-meaning (but not always well behaved) young people as they confront moments of potential dickishness in their everyday lives. Sometimes they falter, sometimes they triumph, but they always seek to find a better way. And with their help, you can too. Just see the agreement at the beginning of the book: I pledge to use the tools and techniques provided in this book to help make the world a less dickish place.

Climate change has been a central concern over recent years, with visible and highly publicized consequences such as melting Arctic ice and mountain glaciers, rising sea levels, and the submersion of low-lying coastal areas during mid-latitude and tropical cyclones. This book presents a review of the spatial impacts of contemporary climate change, with a focus on a systematic, multi-scalar approach. Beyond the facts – rises in temperature, changes in the spatial distribution of precipitation, melting of the marine and terrestrial cryosphere, changes in hydrological regimes at high and medium latitudes, etc. – it also analyzes the geopolitical consequences in the Arctic and Central Asia, changes to Mediterranean culture and to viticulture on a global scale, as well as impacts on the distribution of life, for example, in the Amazon rainforest, in large biomes on a global scale, and for birds.
