A força da arte
O livro A Força da Arte é uma peça teatral inspirada nas circunstâncias criadas pelos confinamentos. Decameron, de Giovanni Boccaccio, é um exemplo de uma obra clássica da literatura, que descreve a história de um grupo de sete jovens mulheres e três rapazes de Florença, que decidem se isolar numa casa no campo, para fugir da peste que acometeu a Europa no século XIV. Para se distraírem, eles contam histórias uns aos outros. Da mesma forma, a obra de Gilberto Schwartsmann descreve o confinamento de três casais da nova elite econômica emergente, numa mansão na Serra, durante a pandemia pela COVID-19. A aparente tranquilidade do grupo é quebrada após a chegada de uma sétima personagem, a qual introduz um elemento de efeito disruptivo no grupo: a força da arte. Dizer mais, seria antecipar os mergulhos de ordem social, política e moral, bem como o bom humor emprestados pelo autor a esta surpreendente obra teatral.
Dibuk
A Literatura está no imaginário de Gilberto Schwartsmann, escritor, médico, bibliófilo e grande incentivador da cultura. As inspirações para a construção das histórias incluídas neste livro foram as pessoas da família, como a sua avó e a sua mãe, e o universo de sua infância. Há uma história contada por seu pai e outras que vêm das pessoas que viviam no bairro onde nasceu, e que fazem parte do imaginário do autor. É difícil precisar o quanto de verdade há nas histórias narradas em Dibuk, pois os fatos e as fantasias se misturam e se confundem no texto. Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) tinha toda a razão, quando escreveu o seu ensaio intitulado A decadência da mentira (1891), um pouco de fantasia, algumas pitadas de imaginação e, sobretudo, uma deslavada mentira são o barro mais útil – e paradoxalmente mais verdadeiro – para servir de alimento à literatura. Nas dez histórias contadas pelo autor, há também revelações e descrições das dores vividas por qualquer ser humano, sempre entremeadas por momentos em que é inevitável mergulhar numa espécie de realismo mágico.

New Challenges in Communication with Cancer Patients
The relationship between oncologists and their cancer patients is rapidly evolving. Oncologists and other cancer professionals master new anticancer and supportive treatment options, while working under increasing economic pressure and time constraints, and are often unprepared to deal with all the challenges of their new position in a therapeutic relationship with cancer patients and families. Good communication is as essential as are modern laboratory tests and sophisticated diagnostics to achieve the best clinical results. This book updates the evolution of truth-telling and communication patterns worldwide and offers insights into the recent trends and emerging challenges in communication with cancer patients and families. New Challenges in Communication with Cancer Patients is an invaluable resource to medical professionals, educators and patients in establishing a strong and effective partnership built on trust and mutual understanding.
New Approaches in Cancer Pharmacology: Drug Design and Development
The European School of Oncology came into existence to respond to a need for information, education and training in the field of the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. There are two main reasons why such an initiative was considered necessary. Firstly, the teaching of oncology requires a rigorously multidisciplinary approach which is difficult for the Universities to put into practice since their system is mainly disciplinary orientated. Secondly, the rate of technological development that impinges on the diagnosis and treatment of cancer has been so rapid that it is not an easy task for medical faculties to adapt their curricula flexibly. With its residential courses for organ pathologies a...

Toward Universal Health Coverage and Equity in Latin America and the Caribbean
Over the past three decades, many countries of Latin America and the Caribbean have recognized health as a human right. Since the early 2000s, 46 million more people in the countries studied are covered by health programs with explicit guarantees of affordable care. Reforms have been accompanied by a rise in public spending for health, financed largely from general revenues that prioritized or explicitly target the population without capacity to pay. Political commitment has generally translated into larger budgets as well as passage of legislation that ring-fenced funding for health. Most countries have prioritized cost-effective primary care and adopted purchasing methods that incentivize ...
Guyana: From Slavery to the Present
It is common knowledge that slavery and indenture were characterized by long hours of physical labor, restriction of movement and other basic human freedoms, and severe punishment for violations of draconian labor laws. Less well known is the fact that nutrition was very deficient and a range of infectious diseases maimed, debilitated and killed on a large scale. In trying to narrow the knowledge gap with respect to Guyana, Ramesh Gampat shows that extremely poor sanitary conditions, awful hygiene and malnutrition hastened widespread infections and created a vicious cycle. The British protected its own soldiers, officials and colonists by establishing a medical enclave that lasted until Eman...
