This volume shows that the emergence of computational social science (CSS) is an endogenous response to problems from within the social sciences and not exogeneous. The three parts of the volume address various pathways along which CSS has been developing from and interacting with existing research frameworks. The first part exemplifies how new theoretical models and approaches on which CSS research is based arise from theories of social science. The second part is about methodological advances facilitated by CSS-related techniques. The third part illustrates the contribution of CSS to traditional social science topics, further attesting to the embedded nature of CSS. The expected readership of the volume includes researchers with a traditional social science background who wish to approach CSS, experts in CSS looking for substantive links to more traditional social science theories, methods and topics, and finally, students working in both fields.

While modern food production has become increasingly efficient in providing a wide range of convenient and affordable products, individuals struggling with gluten intolerance, FODMAP intolerance, and intolerance to food additives are an exception when their health conditions limit the foods they can safely eat. Food intolerances, usually dealt with from a health perspective, also have technological aspects, especially as one takes into consideration that foods designed for individuals with food intolerances require specific ingredients, formulations, and processing conditions. Food Intolerances: A Technological Perspective addresses the health and food science aspects of food intolerances fr...

The EQ-5D instrument, as a standardized, cross-culturally validated measure of self-assessed health has a hugely important role in understanding population health within and across countries. Over the past two decades a wealth of international population health survey data have been accumulated by the EuroQol Group from research conducted in many countries across four continents. One of the success factors of the EQ-5D instruments has been the easy availability of national or international sets of EQ-5D data, as well as clear explanations and guidance for users. There is an unmet need to produce a comprehensive book that captures up-to-date and expanded information of EQ-5D self-reported health and index values. EQ-5D population norms and cross-country analyses are provided from representative national surveys of 20 countries and additional regional surveys. This book will be a must for those who believe that how people report and value health is very important.
This series of seven policy studies cover lessons from experience in health system reform, improving the technical quality of health care, income-related inequality in health care, matching supply with demand for physicians and nurses, excessive waiting times, private health insurance, and more.
"Necesitamos más mujeres escribiendo, produciendo análisis y protagonizando la era de la cuarta revolución industrial, especialmente si lo hacen desde una perspectiva de ética y de derechos humanos. Es por ello que celebro este libro de Cecilia Danesi, que reflexiona sobre qué es la inteligencia artificial (IA) y cómo impacta en los derechos humanos, en consonancia con nuestro trabajo en la Unesco. Señala también la necesidad de alfabetizar en IA, informar e informarse mejor y entender cómo repercuten los algoritmos en nuestra vida diaria, así como los retos y desafíos para desarrollar IA de forma ética, inclusiva y al servicio de la humanidad" (Gabriela Ramos, directora general ...
Smart. Funny. Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s. It might have remade New York's cultural landscape; it definitely changed the whole tone of magazine journalism. It was cruel, brilliant, beautifully written and perfectly designed, and feared by all. There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.
