"How do you gauge the accomplishments of policy and its failures? While a number of nations are successful in optimizing a socio-economic welfare function, others are woefully falling short of the optimal frontier. Diagnostics for a Globalized World proposes a reformulation of the inherited theory of economic and social policy (codified in the 1950s by Jan Tinbergen) to find a diagnostic tool in measuring the effectiveness of economic and social policy. Using a logarithmic adaptation of data envelopment analysis, the authors explain how to rank the attainment of nations of multidimensional goals such as those expressed by the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and upcoming Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)."--

O crack é uma droga de rápida absorção que causa impacto instantâneo na saúde global dos usuários e provoca comprometimento clínico e psiquiátrico. Este livro aborda o consumo da droga por crianças e adolescentes e as consequências que sofrem devido ao uso da substância por pais ou responsáveis. A obra reúne dez capítulos e tem por base os resultados de duas pesquisas realizadas pela Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Os autores atuam em diferentes campos de conhecimento e dão à obra uma visão interdisciplinar sobre o assunto. Eles buscaram identificar quantos e quem são esses jovens indivíduos e traçar um perfil deles, além de refletir sobre as formas de atenção existentes em algumas cidades brasileiras. Para a organizadora, o crack é um problema de saúde pública que afeta diversas famílias brasileiras, “mais pelos impactantes efeitos provocados nos indivíduos e na sociedade, do que necessariamente pelos números alcançados. Nos estudos que aferem prevalência existente no país, o uso do crack tende a atingir algo em torno de 1% da população em geral, enquanto outros problemas como, por exemplo, o uso de álcool, abrangem proporções muito maiores”.
