Supporting Tobacco Cessation
This Monograph provides a comprehensive overview of tobacco cessation, from health policy to patient care. Broad in scope, this state-of-the art collection is broken down into four sections: the changing landscape of the tobacco epidemic and challenges to curb it; treatment of tobacco dependence (pharmacotherapy, behavioural support); improving the care of patients with particular conditions who smoke (asthma, COPD, TB, cardiovascular diseases, etc.); and prevention. It also deals with some of the more controversial topics such as e-cigarettes and web applications. Readers will gain an understanding of how to implement smoking cessation into their everyday practice, but will also expand their knowledge about the policy and systems changes needed for population-wide smoking cessation.
Reclaiming Space
"Space, to use a worn metaphor, is in the mind of the beholder. When we contemplate the seemingly limitless universe, we tend to project onto space our own hopes and dreams (as well as our fears and anxieties). But like responses to Rorschach inkblots, there are many different hopes, dreams, fears, and anxieties that one can project onto the night's sky. To those who approach it with a thirst for profits, space appears as a resource-rich goldmine, beckoning to anyone with enough wealth and privilege to take advantage of untapped markets. To those who approach it with a yearning for human expansion, space appears as a frontier that is humanity's birthright to conquer, its new manifest destiny. To those who approach it with a passion for knowledge and understanding, space appears as a tantalizing and pristine laboratory for scientific exploration. In these ways, our visions for humanity's future in space--what planets and moons we hope to visit, what we hope to accomplish when we get there--are more products of our perspectives about space (and our underlying worldviews and value systems) than anything else"--

Muslime und Islamgesetz in Österreich
Der Autor zeigt im zweiten Band zur Geschichte des Islam in Österreich Widersprüche auf. Er hebt die Anstrengungen unserer Gesellschaft zu einem gedeihlichen Miteinander lobend hervor, geht aber auch darauf ein, wie sehr immer wieder politische Interessen mit dem Thema "Islam" verknüpft werden. Dies zeigt beispielhaft die Diskussion um das "Kopftuchverbot", das zu großen Kontroversen in der Gesellschaft geführt hat. Sanac wendet sich mit deutlichen Worten gegen jede Art von Populismus der politischen Verantwortungsträger, aber ebenso klar nimmt er Stellung zu Problemen, die innerhalb der "Community" keinesfalls unumstritten sind, wie Bildung insbesondere der jungen Frauen, aber auch die Aufforderung, durch aktive Bekenntnisse zur Republik Österreich zum Abbau von Vorurteilen beizutragen.
