Hacia una economía ciudadana
Pretende ser un libro útil, un libro orientado a la acción, que sirva de guía y ayuda a gestores públicos -sean técnicos, directivos o políticos- en su esfuerzo cotidiano para humanizar la economía y darle un sentido ciudadano. Sin embargo, no se trata de un mero manual centrado en los aspectos económicos de la gestión ciudadana, ya que posee una intención política muy clara: mostrar cómo la economía debe estar al servicio de las personas y no al revés. A lo largo de sus páginas, el autor reflexiona, traza líneas de acción e incluso se arriesga a formular algunas propuestas concretas. Las pretensiones de objetividad y cientificidad se han dejado al margen para abordar los problemas que atañen a nuestro mundo más inmediato de una manera subjetiva y comprometida, buscando soluciones que permitan a nuestras ciudades evolucionar hacia unas formas de relación económica más humanizadas, en las que todos, en tanto que ciudadanos y ciudadanas, nos convirtamos en protagonistas de su desarrollo.

Damp Indoor Spaces and Health
Almost all homes, apartments, and commercial buildings will experience leaks, flooding, or other forms of excessive indoor dampness at some point. Not only is excessive dampness a health problem by itself, it also contributes to several other potentially problematic types of situations. Molds and other microbial agents favor damp indoor environments, and excess moisture may initiate the release of chemical emissions from damaged building materials and furnishings. This new book from the Institute of Medicine examines the health impact of exposures resulting from damp indoor environments and offers recommendations for public health interventions. Damp Indoor Spaces and Health covers a broad r...
Science and Decisions
Risk assessment has become a dominant public policy tool for making choices, based on limited resources, to protect public health and the environment. It has been instrumental to the mission of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as well as other federal agencies in evaluating public health concerns, informing regulatory and technological decisions, prioritizing research needs and funding, and in developing approaches for cost-benefit analysis. However, risk assessment is at a crossroads. Despite advances in the field, risk assessment faces a number of significant challenges including lengthy delays in making complex decisions; lack of data leading to significant uncertainty in ri...

Salt, Sugar, Fat
The No.1 New York Times Bestseller In China, for the first time, the people who weigh too much now outnumber those who weigh too little.

These three simple ingredients are used by the major food companies to achieve the greatest allure for the lowest possible cost. Here, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Michael Moss exposes the practices of some of the most recognisable (and profitable) companies and brands of the last half cent...
