Abstract

This book is a state-of-the-art educational resource on the latest research and public-policy developments in the fields of wellness promotion and disease prevention. Based on award-winning lectures by University of California faculty on nine campuses as part of the Wellness Lectures Program jointly funded by The California Wellness Foundation, Health Net, and the University of California, the volume aims to widen the scope of health care research and policy to promote wellness rather than focus on illness and disease, and to incorporate proactive, interdisciplinary approaches to health care.

Abstract

Wat is gezond gedrag en hoe bepaal je dat?Waarom eten mensen in Nederland te weinig groente en fruit?Hoe bevorder je dat mensen vaak genoeg en goed genoeg hun handen wassen om overdracht van infecties te voorkomen?Hoe maak je een programma om jongeren meer te laten bewegen?Hoe zorg je ervoor dat dat programma ook daadwerkelijk gebruikt wordt?En hoe bepaal je of een campagne tegen overgewicht effect heeft gehad?Ongezond en onveilig gedrag, zoals roken, te weinig bewegen, te veel eten, en onvoldoende hygiëne zijn in ons land de belangrijkste oorzaken van vermijdbare ziekte en sterfte. Om gezond gedrag te bevorderen, is het van belang om te weten waarom mensen zich gezond of ongezond gedragen en hoe die factoren te beïnvloeden zijn.Dit boek gaat over planmatige, op wetenschappelijke kennis gebaseerde gezondheidsvoorlichting en gedragsverandering. Het doel is om gezondheid te bevorderen, ziekte en beperkingen te helpen voorkomen, en verdere schade door aandoeningen zoveel mogelijk te beperken. Dit op basis van onder andere inzichten uit de epidemiologie en wetenschappelijke theorieën over gedrag en gedragsverandering.De rode draad van het boek is het Model voor Planmatige Gezondheidsbevordering en Gedragsverandering. Dit model wordt stap voor stap uitgewerkt: van de analyse van gezondheid via Intervention Mapping, tot de evaluatie van gezondheidsvoorlichtingsprogramma's, waarbij veel voorbeelden uit de praktijk gebruikt worden ter verduidelijking.https://www.standaardboekhandel.be/p/gezondheidsvoorlichting-en-gedragsverandering-9789023258643

Abstract

Clinical Genomics provides an overview of the various next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies that are currently used in clinical diagnostic laboratories. It presents key bioinformatic challenges and the solutions that must be addressed by clinical genomicists and genomic pathologists, such as specific pipelines for identification of the full range of variants that are clinically important. This book is also focused on the challenges of diagnostic interpretation of NGS results in a clinical setting.

Abstract

"This comprehensive introduction to the study and practice of health and adult education provides the missing link for those seeking to better integrate their efforts in these two areas. Bringing together a distinguished interdisciplinary group of scholars and practitioners, the book speaks clearly to how teaching and learning insights can be used to improve health in clinical, higher education, and community settings. Along with a broad overview of concepts and strategies in the field, Adult Education and Health includes illustrative practical examples from a variety of contexts and a helpful glossary of key terms. It will be a useful resource for professionals and academics in many areas, including community health education, health policy, First Nations health, and the education of health professionals."--

Abstract

""[Reid] develops an approach to globalization and health that goes beyond simplistic dichotomies -- such as the puritanism of the United States in contrast with the more libertine cultures of other countries -- and he also eschews the equally simplistic view that the world is becoming homogenized."" -- David J. Hess, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. A tangible aspect of living, working, and traveling in the 21st century is the experience of moving between smoke-filled and smoke-free environments.

Abstract

Cancer and chronic disease are a rapidly increasing global health burden : according to the Milken Institute, the annual cost to the national US economy of the seven most common chronic conditions will rise to $4.2 trillion by 2023. The data are just as dramatic in Canada, Europe, Australia, and increasingly, in countries in the developing world. As communities, governments, and health organizations worldwide struggle to avoid being swamped by health care costs - not to mention the impact of suffering and poor quality of life - the only long-term, sustainable hope must be based on prevention efforts. This book presents a promising new approach to educating, engaging, empowering, and generating action within communities as part of that broader prevention agenda. The authors review representative global experiences with community based prevention educators, focusing on the prevention coordination work that can be accomplished within geographical areas ranging from local communities to broader regions. Among the findings they reveal in this book are the fundamental elements of successful Community Based Prevention programs - skilled staff, high-quality evaluation, and sustained investment in prevention efforts.

Abstract

Flaherty covers strategies used by libraries to improve people's access to and use of health information. Whether for an individual, a library program, or a community program, it is important to provide health information and sources that are not outdated, difficult to retain, or misrepresented. Public libraries are the perfect setting for empowering patrons with this information.
