Danmarks fremtrædende erhvervsfolk, vismænd og forskere er samlet for at give et unikt syn på hvordan Danmarks fremtid tegner sig. Danmark står midt i store forandringer. Som samfund er det ikke noget, vi lukker øjnene for. Vi konstaterer, at det sker, og vi ser og diskuterer hver eneste dag effekten af forandringerne. Vi erkender ikke til fulde, hvad der foregår, mens vi står midt i det hele. Bogen tager udgangspunkt i faktuelle virkeligheder og nytænkning i forhold til balancen mellem velfærd, vækst og værdier ud fra akademiske, erhvervsmæssige, økonomiske og samfundsmæssige perspektiver.
A gripping detective novel, Blood for Blood follows two New York police officers on their bloody hunt for serial killers of old men. Inspector Al Seriani, a veteran officer with a tortured soul who prefers the company of street prostitutes to his boys in blue, is partnered with David Goldberg, a rookie cop fresh out of the academy. As the murders mount, an enigma grows: all the dead men share an old, dark secret. Why are they are being killed? Is this murder or cold-blooded justice? Despite his brutal and extreme methods, Inspector Al Seriani seeks the truth behind these terrible crimes - no matter what it takes. This stylish and breathtaking mystery is a forceful, adrenaline fueled thrill-ride with non-stop action and excitement. Set in New York City during the turbulent 1970s, this novel has the dark tones characteristic of film noir and features vivid imagery and graphic violence. With a world-weary cynicism worthy of Raymond Chandler and its stunning atmosphere, this debut whodunit echoes the best classic detective fiction.

Population neuroscience endeavors to identify environmental and genetic factors that shape the function and structure of the human brain; it uses the tools and knowledge of genetics (and the “omics” sciences), epidemiology and neuroscience. This text attempts to provide a bridge spanning these three disciplines so that their practitioners can communicate easily with eac...

Britzman writes poignantly of the struggle for significance and the contradictory realities of secondary teaching.

This fascinating volume, the first to examine the magnitude of these socioeconomic differences in relation to cancer, provides vital information for all those interested in public health. Cancer incidence and survival are related to socioeconomic status in both industrialized and less developed countries. These differences can be explained, in part, by known risk factors, particularly tobacco smoke, occupational exposures, reproductive behaviour, diet and biological agents. T.
