Physical Activity as a Natural Cure for Non-Communicable Diseases
The modern way of life is, to a large extent, connected with a number of problems that occur in the field of public health, and non-communicable diseases are one of them. It is well-know that non-communicable diseases are chronic diseases that tend to be of long duration and are the result of a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental and behavioral factors. The main types of non-communicable diseases are cardiovascular diseases, cancers, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes, while the main risk factors are modifiable behavioral risk factors (such as tobacco use, physical inactivity, unhealthy diet and the harmful use of alcohol) and metabolic risk factors (such as raised bl...
Yugoslavia and Political Assassinations
Yugoslavia and Political Assassinations is the first book in English to analyse how and why the Yugoslav State Security Service carried out multiple targeted assassinations, over the country's forty-six years of existence, under the pretext of protecting the Yugoslav communist party-state. Offering a detailed history of the programme, from the inception of the State Security Service to the recent trials of individuals involved, it draws on Christian Axboe Nielsen's unique wealth of experience and research as an academic and as an expert witness in numerous criminal trials. The result is a ground-breaking contribution to the history of targeted assassinations, communist history, state security services and related criminal trials.
Contemporary Slovenian Timber Architecture for Sustainability
The book presents Slovenia’s contemporary timber architecture. Thanks to its abundant forests, Slovenia has preserved the tradition of wood construction. As much as 60% of its surface is covered by forests. Slovenia is also the third most forested country in Europe. The high share of forest-covered surface allows for a sustainable production of high-quality wood. In the past, wood was used primarily in the construction of farm buildings, but now timber architecture is used for everything from residences and office buildings to public buildings such as community centres and schools. Timber construction is becoming increasingly popular. Apart from larger companies taking this approach, a gre...
Współczesna Serbia i Chorwacja wobec własnej historii
Tomasz Stryjek zrealizował w swej książce podstawowy cel, który sobie postawił, jasno prezentując autorską analizę polityk pamięci w Chorwacji i Serbii, umieszczając je w politycznym i społecznym kontekście ich historycznego rozwoju w ostatnich dziesięcioleciach. Uznanie budzi ogrom wiedzy na temat polityk i procesów zachodzących w społeczeństwach serbskim i chorwackim na płaszczyźnie pamięci. Oceny autora są wyważone i pobudzające do dalszych dyskusji i rozważań, pokazują, jak ważnym elementem procesu transformacji były zmiany w polityce historycznej w analizowanych państwach. Jestem przekonana, że książka da polskim czytelnikom wgląd w złożone procesy zac...

Ubij bližnjeg svog
Prvo su na prostoru SFRJ počele da ratuju tajne policije podrzavljenih republika, a potom same republike i drzave. Bio je to tihi i nevidljivi rat za običan svet, ali pouzdan simptom za političare, koji su vagali, svaki na svoj način, kako ce i kada da izađu kao pobednici iz duela sa Srbima. Srpska tajna policija je progonila drzavne neprijatelje, kako u Srbiji, tako i u drugim republikama. To su znali samo oni koji su osetili srpski politički bič na svojim leđima. U zavisnosti od prilika i događaja na unutrasnjoj političkoj sceni Jugoslavije, o tajnoj policiji ispredane su razne priče, koje su ponekad imale i karakter mita. Jos tokom rata u narodu je rođena posalica da "Ozna sve dozna", koja se u srpskom zargonu odrzala do danasnjih dana. Druga izreka, koja je postala i politički moto, glasila je "Udba je srpska sudba". Ona je na najslikovitiji način odrazavala narodno shvatanje moci i nemoci srpske, a i jugoslovenske tajne policije.
Understanding and promoting factors which affect healthy ageing: Physical Activity, Sleep Patterns and nutritional habits
A few clear factors are associated with living longer and healthier — such as higher levels of physical activity, good sleep patterns and proper nutrition. However, despite all the advances that have been made to increase the general population's physical activity, improve their sleep patterns, and boost their nutritional habits, there is still a lot to be done. This Research Topic aims to address the topic of healthy ageing and will consider manuscripts focused on the effects of improving these factors in all ages, from childhood to old age. We are mainly interested in questions of broader interventions at the individual (home settings), group (school, work, and gerontology settings), and societal level (community/based settings). We also welcome papers investigating the short- and long-term effects of environmental factors on physical changes in children, working and old age populations and their development. Correlational and survey studies examining the issues mentioned above are welcome.
