The Sustainability of Hemp
The cannabis plant, as a hemp, could contribute better than previously thought to achieving the goals of the UN Sustainable Development Report, the so-called Agenda 2030 and its 17 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals). From a health perspective, its medicinal use is the main focus, but it is also used in cosmetic products and in food offerings for humans and animals. In the context of the increasing climate crisis, hemp helps especially to cope with the CO2 problem: in agriculture by binding the CO2 similar to reforestation, in industry as a recyclable raw material substitute for example as a plastic substitute, in clothing, in technology or in construction. At the moment, unfortunately, the immense prices and high demand show a different picture, from citizens who want to but can't or aren't allowed to, from farmers who have to overcome immense bureaucratic hurdles to an industry that is deterred by complex rules and laws to invest. The essential shows how this potential could also be realized in Germany.
Breaking Points
A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. Unprecedented numbers of young people are in crisis today, and our health care systems are set up to fail them. Breaking Points explores the stories of a diverse group of American young adults experiencing psychiatric hospitalization for psychotic symptoms for the first time and documents how patients and their families make decisions about treatment after their release. Approximately half of young people refuse mental-health care after their initial hospitalization even though we know that better outcomes depend on early support for youth and families. In attempting to determine why this is the case, Neely Laurenzo Myers identifies what matters most to young people in crisis, passionately arguing that health care providers must attend not only to the medical and material dimensions of care but also to a patient's moral agency.
Ontologies and Natures
In Ontologies and Natures: Knowledge about Health in Visual Culture, Fernando Gonzalez Rodriguez argues that visual culture offers insights into how societies perceive the role of nature in pursuits to cure and care for the human body. By using a set of visual surfaces and artefacts as entry points the book sheds light on ideas about nature as a healing source.

Perspectives on Evidence-Based Policy in Human Services
The evidence-based movement is an important force in human services. The highest quality care can be provided to individuals, communities, and society through evidence-based policies and practices. The questions are: “What is evidence-based practice in human services, and how do you do it?” This book addresses these questions through the experience and insights of policy-makers, clinicians, researchers, evaluators, and a consumer. The authors of the various chapters come from diverse disciplines: psychology, sociology, social work, evaluation, and public policy. This book covers such topics as the definition and history of evidence-based policy, the federal role, the role of the states, European perspectives, the development of evidence-based programs, a consumer’s experience, and problems with the evidence-based approach. This book makes an excellent addition to the libraries of policy-makers, researchers, clinicians, community leaders, evaluators, and anyone else who desires insight into this timely and crucial topic.

Benjamin and Vladka Meed Registry of Jewish Holocaust Survivors 2000
"This book is based on the records of the Benjamin and Vladka Meed Registry of Jewish Holocaust Survivors. The Registry is a computer database that lists more than 170,000 names of Holocaust survivors and some members of their families. The American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors first established a national registry in 1981 to document the lives of survivors who came to the United States after World War II ... The Registry includes the names of Holocaust survivors who are now deceased, but does not indicate that they have passed away ... this published version only includes information about the survivors based on their individual files."--Introduction
