O livro analisa, no contexto jurídico brasileiro, os direitos fundamentais sociais enquanto instrumentos para a concretização do princípio da igualdade. Inicia-se com o estudo da evolução dos direitos fundamentais, sob a perspectiva da teoria das gerações de direitos, inaugurada por Karel Vasak. Em seguida, volta-se ao princípio da igualdade, com breve estudo acerca da distinção entre regras e princípios, calcada nas lições de Ronald Dworkin e Robert Alexy, debruçando-se sobre o significado jurídico do princípio da igualdade, na tentativa de identificar o conteúdo que pode ser extraído das dimensões do referido princípio. Tendo em vista o caráter não absoluto dos direi...

This book is the definitive reference regarding the global status of melioidosis in 2018. Melioidosis is one of the most neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), so much so that it is not even included in the WHO list of NTDs. Yet modeling suggests that it kills more people worldwide every year than diseases that are much better known, such as leptospirosis and dengue. The reasons for this under-recognition are numerous, including the fact that it mainly affects the disadvantaged rural poor in areas that are poorly supplied with the diagnostic capability to make the diagnosis. In 22 separate articles, expert authors from around the world have summarized what is known about the burden of the disea...
