Drugs En Alcohol; Gebruik, Misbruik En Verslaving
De snelle ontwikkelingen in het aanbod en gebruik van drugs en alcohol maken actuele informatie noodzakelijk om de zorg optimaal te maken en te houden. Zijn er nieuwe behandelmethoden voor verslaving? Hoe werkt een specifieke drug op de hersenen en wat zijn de lichamelijke en maatschappelijke gevolgen van het gebruik? Belangrijke vragen voor mensen die beroepshalve te maken krijgen met alcohol- en drugsgebruik en -misbruik.Dit boek zet alle feiten over drugs en alcohol helder op een rij. Het bespreekt de belangrijkste thema's en begrippen rondom het gebruik en misbruik van alcohol en drugs. Ook gaan de auteurs in op keuzes in het drugsbeleid, de laatste ontwikkelingen in de preventie van alcohol- en drugsproblemen en de behandeling van verslaving. Door de heldere indeling kan de lezer over elke drug snel informatie vinden. Bovendien komen andere verslavingen aan bod, zoals internet- en gokverslaving.
Women, Work and Computerization
ELLENBALKA Simon Fraser University ebalka@Sfu. ca 1. INTRODUCTION In developing the call for papers for the 7th International Federation of Information Processors (IFIP) Women, Work and Computerization Conference, we sought to cast our net widely. We wanted to encourage presenters to think broadly about women, work and computerization. Towards this end, the programme committee developed a call for papers that, in its final form, requested paper submissions around four related themes. These are (1) Setting the Course: Taking Stock of Where We Are and Where We're Going; (2) Charting Undiscovered Terrain: Creating Models, Tools and Theories; (3) Navigating the Unknown: Sex, Time, Space and Plac...
Cyberdemocracy
In Cyberdemocracy the arguments for and against "electronic democracy" and the potential for information and communication technology are closely examined. Theoretical analysis is supported by a series of empirical case studies.
MRI of the Liver
Recent technological developments have broadened considerably the role of magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of liver pathology. Today, MR imaging is not looked upon merely as a problem-solving technique but is widely considered the principal imaging modality for both the detection and accurate diagnosis of focal and diffuse liver disease. Advances in hardware and sequence design and the advent of novel contrast agents with liver-specific properties have contributed towards making MRI of the liver a routine clinical application. Compared with previous publications on the application of MRI to study the liver, this book stands out in at least three major respects: - It presents in a...
Formations
Formations is a comprehensive textbook designed for students moving to a deeper engagement with the media studies. The original essays are organized around the broad themes of public knowledge, cultural identity, broadcasting, film, and pop tech. An introductory section explores the fundamentals of the field and a section on method examines how knowledge is constructed within media studies. Throughout, the material is structured into a combination of case studies and integrative essays, punctuated at key moments by "stop and think" advice aimed directly at students. With contributions well-known scholars, Formations offers a deep engagement with issues, theories, and methods, especially new technologies transforming landscapes of popular culture.
Melanoma
Melanoma is one of the most types of cancer. When melanoma is detected at an early stage, treatment is highly successful, but outcomes can be poor when the disease is advanced. There has been significant progress in our understanding of the molecular biology, genetics, and immunology of melanoma over the past decade. This has been accompanied by rapid advances in therapeutic strategies for patients with melanoma. This book provides the clinician and the researcher with a broad understanding of the molecular and cellular pathogenesis of melanoma, explores the clinical characteristics and criteria for clinical and pathological staging of the disease, and provides an overview of current and evolving treatment strategies in the adjuvant, metastatic, and preventive settings. The treatment of special populations and rare variants of melanoma that often present particular clinical challenges is also covered. Authored by international experts in melanoma biology and clinical management, this volume concisely explains how to diagnose, treat, and prevent melanoma while reviewing advances in basic science and providing an overview of innovative approaches still under development.
(Re)Inventing the Internet
Although it has been in existence for over three decades, the Internet remains a contested technology. Its governance and role in civic life, education, and entertainment are all still openly disputed and debated. The issues include censorship and network control, privacy and surveillance, the political impact of activist blogging, peer to peer file sharing, the effects of video games on children, and many others. Media conglomerates, governments and users all contribute to shaping the forms and functions of the Internet as the limits and potentialities of the technologies are tested and extended. What is most surprising about the Internet is the proliferation of controversies and conflicts in which the creativity of ordinary users plays a central role. The title, (Re)Inventing the Internet, refers to this extraordinary flowering of agency in a society that tends to reduce its members to passive spectators. This collection presents a series of critical case studies that examine specific sites of change and contestation. These cover a range of phenomena including computer gaming cultures, online education, surveillance, and the mutual shaping of digital technologies and civic life.
Catalysis
There is an increasing challenge for chemical industry and research institutions to find cost-efficient and environmentally sound methods of converting natural resources into fuels chemicals and energy. Catalysts are essential to these processes and the Catalysis Specialist Periodical Report series serves to highlight major developments in this area. This series provides systematic and detailed reviews of topics of interest to scientists and engineers in the catalysis field. The coverage includes all major areas of heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis and also specific applications of catalysis such as NOx control kinetics and experimental techniques such as microcalorimetry. Each chapter...
Sustainable Digital Transformation
Digital transformation is one of the most discussed topics today because of its impact on society and the economy. This book explores how digital transformation can be made sustainable and how sustainability strategies can be integrated into the different phases of digital transformation development. It shows how ICT experts, managers, and policy makers can contribute to a sustainable digital transformation by examining the technological, organizational, and societal implications. The book is based on a selection of best papers on this topic presented at the annual conference of the Italian Chapter of AIS in Trento, Italy, in October 2021. The plurality of views offered makes the book particularly relevant for scholars, companies, and organizations in the public sector.
