Abstract

Neste livro os autores, pelo saber e pela experiência, buscam clarear os médicos para que atentem aos conhecimentos biopsiquicos da noite e do dormir. A cronobiologia é uma ciência que abrange todos os seres vivos e estuda os fenômenos biológicos em função do tempo, especialmente aqueles que apresentam caráter cíclico. “Entender que o organismo humano modifica-se à noite e que certas doenças expressam-se mais ou preferentemente nesse período é um ganho do médico no trato com seus pacientes”. A idéia de unir, em um só volume, a fisiologia e a fisiopatologia das doenças noturnas é oportuna, necessária e pedagógica.

Abstract

This book covers alphabetically (from abstraction to Young Hegelians) both the major concepts in political theory and the key writers in the field. While ensuring accuracy and objectivity, the entries represent interpretations that are both challenging and interesting. The premise underlying the book is that politics cannot be studied without theory, in which case the more concrete and relevant the theory, the better. Presenting theory in an abstract fashion makes it daunting for students who can find it difficult to see the links between theory and practice. The definitions in this glossary therefore relate political ideas to political realities (i.e. everyday controversies) in an attempt to make them as lively, stimulating and accessible as possible. Terms are selected based upon the concepts most regularly used in teaching.

Abstract

Science news is met by the public with a mixture of fascination and disengagement. On the one hand, Americans are inflamed by topics ranging from the question of whether or not Pluto is a planet to the ethics of stem-cell research. But the complexity of scientific research can also be confusing and overwhelming, causing many to divert their attentions elsewhere and leave science to the “experts.” Whether they follow science news closely or not, Americans take for granted that discoveries in the sciences are occurring constantly. Few, however, stop to consider how these advances—and the debates they sometimes lead to—contribute to the changing definition of the term “science” itself. Going beyond the issue-centered debates, Daniel Patrick Thurs examines what these controversies say about how we understand science now and in the future. Drawing on his analysis of magazines, newspapers, journals and other forms of public discourse, Thurs describes how science—originally used as a synonym for general knowledge—became a term to distinguish particular subjects as elite forms of study accessible only to the highly educated.

Abstract

Originalmente organizado para dar suporte a um curso a distância, o livro extrapola seus objetivos iniciais e compartilha com estudantes, profissionais e gestores de saúde ideias e reflexões para reconhecer e enfrentar a violência como grave problema de saúde pública. A obra contextualiza a violência na realidade brasileira, aborda a história da incorporação do tema na agenda do setor saúde e discute a importância de uma política para a área. Destaca como a família, a escola, a comunidade e a mídia podem e devem ser alvos de medidas de prevenção à violência. De modo didático, descreve cenas e casos de violência que chegam aos serviços de saúde e, em seguida, oferece textos para reflexão e outras sugestões de leitura, de modo que os profissionais possam se preparar para lidar com situações semelhantes. Dessa forma, são estudados e discutidos temas como crianças e adolescentes em situações de violência; formas de institucionalização tradicionalmente reconhecidas pelas relações de violência; violência no trabalho; e violência contra pessoas portadoras de deficiência, mulheres e idosos. Completam a obra um passo a passo para um diagnóstico situacional da violência; uma proposta para a elaboração de um plano local de promoção, prevenção e atenção às situações de violências e acidentes; e exemplos de avaliação de programas e ações nesse campo.

Abstract

This is a refreshing book: it contains nothing trite, rejects conventionality and academic fads, and unswervingly asserts a clear position on thorny issues. With this book, Bernardo Sorj has demonstrated once again what those of us who have followed his career already knew: not only is he an excellent sociologist, but above all, he is a true intellectual, a critical thinker who tackles the main issues of today’s world, and Latin America in particular.
