Drugs and Human Behavior
This book presents the main concepts and tools for the adoption of a biopsychosocial approach to psychotropic substances use and abuse management, prevention and treatment. It aims to provide resources for the design and implementation of health strategies and public policies to deal with psychotropic substances use in a way that fully recognizes the complex articulations between its biological, psychological and social aspects, taking these three dimensions into account to develop both health and social care policies and strategies aimed at psychotropic substance users. The book is organized in five parts. Part one presents a historical overview of psychotropic substances use throughout hum...
Fillers and Filled Polymers
With the increasing recognition of the importance of fillers for reinforcing and enhancing polymer properties, current research is progressing rapidly. This volume of Macromolecular Symposia presents highlights of the Eurofillers'99 conference held in Lyon, France, September 6-9, 1999. Recent research furthering our understanding of the properties and processing of fillers and their interactions with polymers was presented, along with new ideas addressing the need for filled polymers with combinations of varied properties. The possibilities presented by nanotechnology were also introduced through contributions concerning investigations into nanofillers, such as clays and whiskers, and nanocomposites.
The Cambridge History of Latin America
This is an authoritative large-scale history of the whole of Latin America, from the first contacts between native American peoples and Europeans in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries to the present day.
Standardization of Epidemiologic Studies of Host Susceptibility
The incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (100M) varies dramatically across racial groups and countries, with annual age-adjusted rates of approximately 40/100,000 per year in Finland, but only 0.51100,000 per year in China. Although reasons for these marked geographic differences are unknown, it is likely that genetic variations across populations play a m~or role. To determine the contribution of genetic factors to the global patterns of 100M incidence, international comparative studies are now being undertaken as part of the WHO Multinational Project for Childhood Oiabetes, known as the DIAMOND Project. It is, therefore, necessary to develop and implement epidemiologic standard...
Shared Lives of Humans and Animals
The book focuses on animal agency and interactions between humans and animals. It explores the reciprocity of human–animal relations and the capacity of animals to act and shape human societies. The chapters draw on examples from the Global North to explore questions of how industrialization, urbanization, and human life in modernity have been a
Envenomations Caused by Animals
About 90% of the injuries caused by venomous and poisonous animals are manifested by cutaneous signs, due to the inflammatory and necrotic characteristics of various toxins. Even when there are no initial changes in the skin, these can appear in later stages. Therefore, it is necessary for health professionals to be able to recognize and treat these types of injuries. This work provides detailed information on the identification of venomous and poisonous animals and the symptoms caused by their toxins. It includes extensive photographic documentation and discussion on the diagnosis and treatment of dermatitis, which can range from small superficial inflammations to deep necrosis with great t...
A Presença Do Negro Em Nossa História
No processo da colonização firmou-se no Brasil características, com traços culturais diferentes aos dos trazidos pelos europeus, que contribuíram nos aspectos econômicos, sociais e políticos para a formação da identidade brasileira. Devido as necessidades de exploração econômica da mão-de-obra que os europeus estavam enfrentando, apelaram para a mão-de-obra escrava indígena. Logo se aproveitou da força de trabalho do negro africano, vindos diretamente da África nos navios negreiros para serem vendidos ao Brasil para trabalharem nos serviços pesados. Desta forma, obrigatoriamente tiveram que se submeter a cultura africana. No entanto o africano, como povo escravizado, precis...
Pesticides Environmental Destination: A Study Based On Coffee Productive Areas
The benefits of pesticides are evident. However, the risk of adverse effects must be diminished. So, it is necessary to exert effective control of use and have available methods of calculating their environmental behavior. The models employ calculations that use concepts of activity and fugacity to characterize the equilibrium that exists between environmental compartments. Most of the emphasis is set on organic chemicals, which are more susceptible to generalization than inorganic chemical, when assessing environmental behavior.
Chinese Overseas Ports in Europe and the Americas
This book analyzes the progress, gains, and effects of Chinese overseas ports through in-depth and systematic studies of numerous cases in Europe and Latin America. China’s participation in overseas ports, especially under the rubric of the Belt and Road Initiative, is a matter of great concern to businesspeople, policymakers, and researchers pondering the implications of Chinese infrastructure activities and overseas investment. Yet there is insufficient knowledge concerning the actual nature of China’s role in specific ports, the economic and other consequences associated with that involvement, and the wider economic, political, and environmental effects of those economic effects. The ...
