Social Calls of the Bats of Britain and Ireland
The social calls of bats are an area about which relatively little is known, with more research still required to expand our understanding. However, these calls are increasingly recognised as a useful aid to identification: they appear to be species specific and are indicative of behaviour – as in territorial activity of males during the mating season. Because the gathering and interpretation of bat echolocation data are a matter of course during research, conservation and consultancy, it is a logical progression to build momentum behind the consideration of social calls in mainstream bat-related work. A better understanding of this subject could mean that non-intrusive survey methods are ...
The Handbook of Acoustic Bat Detection
An accessible and comprehensive guide to all things acoustic bat detection. This highly illustrated handbook provides an in-depth understanding of acoustic detection principles, study planning, data handling, properties of bat calls, manual identification of species, automatic species recognition, analysis of results, quality assurance and the background physics of sound. No other method of detecting bats is so popular and widespread in the context of environmental assessment and voluntary work as acoustic detection, and its increased use has driven the development of a large number of sophisticated devices and analytical methods. Acoustic detection has become a standard approach for establi...
Organ Transplantation in Times of Donor Shortage
This book analyzes the reasons for organ shortage and ventures innovative ideas for approaching this problem. It presents 29 contributions from a highly interdisciplinary group of world experts and upcoming professionals in the field. Every year thousands of patients die while waiting for organ transplantation. Health authorities, medical professionals and bioethicists worldwide point to the urgent and yet unsolved problem of organ shortage, which will be even intensified due to the increasing life expectancy. Even though the practical problem seems to be well known, the search for suitable solutions continues and often restricts itself by being limited through disciplinary and national borders. Combining philosophical reflection with empirical results, this volume enables a unique insight in the ethics of organ transplantation and offers fresh ideas for policymakers, health care professionals, academics and the general public.
Speaking for the Dying
Seven in ten Americans over the age of age of sixty who require medical decisions in the final days of their life lack the capacity to make them. For many of us, our biggest, life-and-death decisions—literally—will therefore be made by someone else. They will decide whether we live or die; between long life and quality of life; whether we receive heroic interventions in our final hours; and whether we die in a hospital or at home. They will determine whether our wishes are honored and choose between fidelity to our interests and what is best for themselves or others. Yet despite their critical role, we know remarkably little about how our loved ones decide for us. Speaking for the Dying ...

Equal Access to healthcare in Europe
This volume grows out of the belief that diversity needs recognition and support from a favourable social environment. More precisely, the different members of diverse societies need recognition and support. This monograph is intended to provide a comparative perspective on the challenges faced in selected European countries (Croatia, Germany, Poland, Slovenia and the UK) with regard to equal access to healthcare and ways of handling them. The authors of the chapters comprising this volume, each within their specialty and in their own way, attempt to identify the different forms and dimensions in which we can be different and the barriers to our flourishing in, and with our differences.
Der Medizinische Standard
Dieses Buch beinhaltet eine interdisziplinäre Untersuchung der Rechtsfragen des Medizinischen Standards. Der Medizinische Standard ist maßgebend für die Anforderungen an das ärztliche Behandlungsgeschehen. Er steht im Zentrum vielfältiger medizin- und gesundheitsrechtlicher Überlegungen. Zwar bilden sich Standards stets in der medizinischen Wissenschaft und Praxis, zu Grunde liegt ihnen jedoch ein juristisches Denkkonzept.Im Bereich der deliktischen wie vertraglichen Arzthaftung zieht der Standard die Grenze zum schadensersatzpflichtigen Fehlverhalten bei der Behandlung von Patienten. Zugleich richten sich nach ihm die im Rahmen der Gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung (GKV) seitens der Krankenkassen zu gewährenden Leistungen sowie die sicherzustellende Versorgung insgesamt.Die vorliegende Forschungsarbeit analysiert die Standardbestimmung im Zusammenspiel von Medizin und Recht, stellt die Standardbegriffe von Zivil- und Sozialrecht gegenüber, zeigt Konfliktfelder auf – nicht zuletzt im Hinblick auf wachsende finanzielle Zwänge im Gesundheitswesen – und unterbreitet entsprechende Lösungsvorschläge.
