Vulnerabilidades e suas dimensões jurídicas
"Por meio da identificação dos sujeitos vulneráveis e dos mecanismos de tutela, por força do comando da isonomia substancial acalentado no desenho solidarista constitucional que marca o atual estágio democrático do Estado brasileiro, vivencia-se um período sem precedentes de humanização do Direito e da concreta percepção de suas novas funções. Um ordenamento jurídico que não tem por fim o reforço e manutenção do sistema de dominação social, racial e de gênero e preservação do status quo do poder estabelecido, mas atento à realidade de desigualdades e voltado ao efetivo enfrentamento das relações assimétricas que permitem a subordinação e a subjugação dos grupos...

Electrocardiographic Imaging
Electrical activity in the myocardium coordinates the contraction of the heart, and its knowledge could lead to a better understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiac diseases. This electrical activity generates an electromagnetic field that propagates outside the heart and reaches the human torso surface, where it can be easily measured. Classical electrocardiography aims to interpret the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) to determine cardiac activity and support the diagnosis of cardiac pathologies such as arrhythmias, altered activations, and ischemia. More recently, a higher number of leads is used to reconstruct a more detailed quantitative description of the electrical activity in t...

Encyclopedia of Addictions [2 volumes]
This two volume set contains frank and factual information about symptoms, causes, effects, prevention, and treatment of substance abuse—alcohol, nicotine, and drugs—and of behavioral addictions such as eating disorders, pathological gambling, and compulsive sexual activity. Including the most up-to-date research, the addiction entries are based largely on criteria established by the American Psychiatric Association in its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.Tracing the history of the debate over whether addiction is a choice or a disease, the volumes explain how genetic and biological findings support the disease concept while lifestyle choices affect the course of the disease. Graphics and discussions of the brain structures that support this self-reinforcing mechanism illustrate why treatments that obstruct the pathway are showing such promise.
