Trends in Eating Disorders Research
The abundance of food in the developed countries of the world has seemingly spawned an epidemic of disorders connected to the food. Extremes such as intensive concern about one's body image and total disregard for it have resulted in countries which contain enormous segments of the population who are either obese and proud of it or bordering on anorexia nervosa. This new book gathers state-of-the-art research from leading scientists throughout the world which offers important information on understanding the underlying causes and discovering the most effective treatments for eating disorders.
Old-Age Provision and Homeownership – Fiscal Incentives and Other Public Policy Options
In light of demographic change and the growing problems of traditional old-age security systems, this book discusses two essential instruments in connection with privately providing for old-age security: (1) savings in private pension schemes and (2) building up equity for home-ownership. Further, it assesses the relationship between the two instruments and offers a unique overview of the latest market developments. In order to represent the profound differences between the individual member states of the EU, this book features six country-specific studies – covering Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom – that provide detailed insights into the complexity of local private pension schemes, mortgage markets, and housing markets. Lastly, the book discusses public policies and fiscal incentives intended to better integrate residential property with private pensions. It will appeal to both, private households seeking to build up old-age security, as well as policy makers interested in providing secure pension schemes.
Großwerden
Kinder haben heute die besten Chancen, gesund aufzuwachsen. Dennoch scheint es kompliziert wie nie zu sein, sie dabei zu unterstützen. Familien stehen vielfach unter Druck. Mütter und Väter haben hohe Ansprüche an sich selbst. Aber auch die Gesellschaft verlangt ihnen viel ab. Zudem prasseln Unmengen von Ratschlägen aus dem Netz auf sie ein, die oft mehr verunsichern als helfen. Kurz: Das Familienleben fühlt sich herausfordernd an. Da braucht es verlässliche Informationen. Jörg Dötsch und Johanna Schoener klären auf der Grundlage aktueller wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse über Ernährung, Schlaf, Infekte und viele andere zentrale Entwicklungsthemen der ersten zehn Lebensjahre auf. Sie zeigen, wie Eltern ihre Kinder so stärken können, dass sie ihren individuellen Weg finden. Wieso sind die ersten 1000 Tage so entscheidend? Wie wirkt sich die Ernährung in der Schwangerschaft aus? Was muss man beim Reisen mit Baby beachten? Kann man Allergien vorbeugen? In welchem Umfang sind kindliche Ängste normal? Was stärkt die Abwehrkräfte? Wann muss man in die Notaufnahme? Woran erkennt man eine Lernstörung?

Medical BioMethods Handbook
John Walker and Ralph Rapley have collected a wide-ranging group of molecular and biochemical techniques that are the most frequently used in medical and clinical research, especially diagnostics. The authors-well-established investigators who run their own research programs and use the methods on a regular basis-outline the practical procedures for using them and describe a variety of pertinent applications. Among the technologies presented are southern and western blotting, electrophoresis, PCR, cDNA and protein microarrays, liquid chromatography, in situ hybridization, karyotyping, flow cytometry, bioinformatics, genomics, and ribotyping. The applications include assays for mutation detection, mRNA analysis, chromosome translocations, inborn errors of metabolism, protein therapeutics, and gene therapy.
