Rose's Strategy of Preventive Medicine
The Strategy of Preventive Medicine by Geoffrey Rose, first published in 1993, remains a key text for anyone involved in preventive medicine. Rose's insights into the inextricable relationship between ill health, or deviance, in individuals and populations they come from, have transformed our whole approach to strategies for improving health. His personal and unique book, based on many years research, sets out the case that the essential determinants of the health of society are to be found in its mass characteristics. The deviant minority can only be understood when seen in its societal context, and effective prevention requires changes which involve the population as a whole. He explores t...
Standards of Rehabilitation Nursing Practice
"This 1986 revision of those standards is again a joint effort of ANA and ARN. It's intent is to reflect the changes within the profession of nursing described in Nursing: a social policy statement, published by ANA in 1980, as well as changes in the area of rehabilitation nursing since 1977, articulated by ARN in three recent documents: Philosophy of rehabilitation nursing, Scope and practice for rehabiliation nursing practice, and Conceptual framework for rehabilitation nursing practice."--Page 1
Genetics as Social Practice
Recent debate about the ethical and regulatory dimensions of developments in genetics has sidelined societal and cultural aspects, which arguably are indispensable for a nuanced understanding of the complexities of the topic. Regulatory and ethical debates benefit from taking seriously this ‘third dimension’ of culture, which often determines the configurations and limits of the space within which scientific, ethical and legal debate can take place. To fill this gap, this volume brings together contributions exploring the mutual relationships between genetics, markets, societies and identities in genetics and genomics. It draws upon the recent transdisciplinary debate on how socio-cultural factors influence understandings of ‘genetics2.0' and shows how individual and collective identities are challenged or reinforced by cultural meanings and practices of genetics. This book will become a standard reference for everyone seeking to make sense of the controversies and shifts in the field of genetics in the second decade of the twenty-first century.
