Public Health at the Crossroads: Achievements and Prospects

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Beaglehole, Robert / Bonita, Ruth, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book, both an introduction to public health as a discipline and a critique of its development over recent times, reviews epidemiological and demographic trends internationally. It provides an overview of major health trends; a summary of the current state of the world's health; a review of recent estimates of the global burden of disease; and an examination of the pattern of modern epidemics, the impact of disability, and the causes of premature death in rich and poor countries alike. With examples drawn from diverse geographical and medical areas, this text challenges clinicians and public health practitioners at all levels. The authors argue for an inclusive vision of public health based on the application in public policy of improved epidemiological understanding of the causes of disease.

Property Companies and the Construction Industry in Britain

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smyth, Hedley / Robson, Brian / Ley, David, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book was the first detailed and systematic account of the property and construction sectors of the British economy. Developing out of a materialist theoretical perspective, Dr Smyth provides an alternative explanation of the different characteristics of the two sectors and rejects traditional notions of the 'backwardness' of the construction sector. The specific historical experience of the Second World War and the rebuilding it necessitated, provides the basis of this analysis and it is argued that the particular divergencies of the construction sector stem from periods of wider economic crisis. Similar periods of crisis have shaped the property sector which, dependent upon the complex relationship between ground rent, the value of the building and building rent, cannot be understood in terms of 'urban rent'. Property companies and the construction industry in Britain challenges both established and radical thinking and its historical account of the development, management and production of the built environment in the years since addresses some of the central concerns of human geography today.

Sources for Ancient History

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Crawford, Michael H., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, If a scholar wishes to create a picture of a topical society in all its aspects, there is little of what he needs to know that he cannot know, although there may still be much that he cannot understand. For the history of Greece and Rome, there is a great deal that is simply unknowable. From the end of the archaic age of Greece, there is an unbroken sequence of works by Greek and, later, Roman historians down to the end of antiquity. Their vision and range of interest were often limited and much of what they produced has been lost. Some help may be derived from the documentary material supplied in antiquity, material that was the product of officials organising public activities, or heads of families organising their affairs, or individuals leaving their mark on the world. Beyond this, the evidence of archaeology and numismatics may also be helpful. The four essays in this book set out to characterise the nature of the ancient literary tradition, the inscriptional material, the archaeological and numismatic evidence and to explain how and for what purposes they may be used.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Porter, Dorothy, PUBLISHER: Routledge, "Health, Civilization and the State" examines the social, economic and political issues of public health provision in historical perspective.

The authors of this volume investigated the etiologies of the neurological subgroups of the retarded and reveal, through comparisons with non-retarded groups, important population factors related to normal cognitive development.

Class Dynamics of Agrarian Change

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bernstein, Henry, PUBLISHER: Kumarian Press, Development processes are never neutral. They impact various groups and classes of people differently. A high food price may benefit some rich peasants who produce and sell food surplus, but it may disadvantage landless rural laborers. A project on irrigation may benefit those who own the land, but not the landless tenants. Nowadays, official documents by governments and development agencies tend to lump different groups of people into vague categories like 'rural poor'. This might be useful in some cases, but in large part this thinking can harm the poorest of the poor. "Agrarian Change Today" demonstrates the continuing relevance of class analysis in understanding development processes and outcomes. It shows clearly and accessibly how the argument for 'bringing class back in' provides an alternative to inherited conceptions of the agrarian question on one hand, and to widespread notions of 'people of the land', 're-peasantization', and so on, on the other. It illustrates what is at stake in different ways of thinking about class dynamics and the effects of agrarian change in today's globalized world.

The New Subjectivist Revolution: An Elucidation and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gunning, James P. / Gunning, J. Patrick, PUBLISHER: Rl Innactive Titles, This book reveals the surprising fact that Ludwig von Mises made seminal contributions to methodology, the concept of equilibrium, and macroeconomics that have not previously been recognized either in mainstream economics or by most of the Austrians. In addition, it goes beyond Mises and others in elucidating the microeconomic concepts of entrepreneurship, profit and loss, and the theory of the firm. Its method of building on a foundation of the reader's personal understanding of human action is a refreshing and inventive approach to communicating these crucial concepts in economic theory.

The Mark of the Social: Discovery or Invention?

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Greenwood, John D. / Gergen, Kenneth J., PUBLISHER: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Behavior, language, development, identity, and science all of these phenomena are commonly characterized as 'social' in nature. But what does it mean to be 'social'? Is there any intrinsic 'mark' of the social shared by these phenomena? In the first book to shed light on this foundational question, twelve distinguished philosophers and social scientists from several disciplines debate the mark of the social. Their varied answers will be of interest to sociologists, anthropologists, philosophers, psychologists, and anyone interested in the theoretical foundations of the social sciences.
