Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rational Readings on Environmental Concerns Edited by Jay H. Lehr Nearly 50 of today's best known scientific, medical, and political minds discuss the full gamut of environmental issues in this provocative volume. They offer a wide range of insights on the state of environmental science today, including many alternative interpretations you won't find in any other media. Leading authorities such as Bruce Ames on carcinogenicity, Bernard Cohen on radioactivity, Fred Singer on global warming, Dixie Lee Ray on nuclear energy, and more than 40 other frequently quoted voices on the environment offer critical thinking about concerns related to wetlands, ozone reduction, radon, forest reduction, acid rain, asbestos, the greenhouse effect and every other popular environmental issue. These contributions emphasize that environmental policies must be based on careful inquiry that is free of passion, and fully reliant on peer reviewed scientific investigation. Throughout they separate facts from fallacies and offer cool-headed scientific approaches, rather than emotional outrage, for dealing with real problems. You'll find out what biotechnology, environmental economics, medicine, nutrition, recycling, and other strategies can really do to correct serious worldwide problems. Plus, here's the real story on the environmental impacts of: Agricultural chemicals Asbestos Biomagnification DDT Dioxin Electromagnetic fields Groundwater contamination Landfills Nuclear energy Radiation.

It is essential reading for environmental engineers, toxicologists, pathologists, cancer researchers, lawyers, legislators, regulators, and other professionals involved in environmental protection and assessment.

Book excerpt: Behavioural Concerns and Autistic Spectrum Disorders: Explanations and Strategies for Change is a practical and comprehensive account of how people who attract autism labels can come to behave in ways that give rise to serious concerns in other people and, sometimes, themselves. The authors identify the range of needs that may be expressed through behaviours that cause concern and provide strategies for addressing both needs and behaviours. These strategies are based on extensive research and on the authors' own clinical experience. Each aspect of need is analysed in detail. General principles for dealing with these needs are presented, and in each case a 'tips and hints' section offers more specific help on possible solutions. Included in the appendices are advice on identifying the factors behind a behaviour that causes concern and guidance on how to ensure that support services are delivering what they should. This is a book that will be essential reading for all those working or living with autistic people.

Download or read book Privacy Concerns Surrounding Personal Information Sharing on Health and Fitness Mobile Apps written by Sen, Devjani and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-08-07 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health and fitness apps collect various personal information including name, email address, age, height, weight, and in some cases, detailed health information. When using these apps, many users trustfully log everything from diet to sleep patterns. However, by sharing such personal information, end-users may make themselves targets to misuse of this information by unknown third parties, such as insurance companies. Despite the important role of informed consent in the creation of health and fitness applications, the intersection of ethics and information sharing is understudied and is an often-ignored topic during the creation of mobile applications. Privacy Concerns Surrounding Personal Information Sharing on Health and Fitness Mobile Apps is a key reference source that provides research on the dangers of sharing personal information on health and wellness apps, as well as how such information can be used by employers, insurance companies, advertisers, and other third parties. While highlighting topics such as data ethics, privacy management, and information sharing, this publication explores the intersection of ethics and privacy using various quantitative, qualitative, and critical analytic approaches. It is ideally designed for policymakers, software developers, mobile app designers, legal specialists, privacy analysts, data scientists, researchers, academicians, and upper-level students.

Download or read book New Ideas for Old Concerns written by Derek Prinsley and published by Australian Scholarly Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derek Prinsley graduated in Medicine in 1942. A chance contact he had with a pioneer in geriatric medicine started his own pioneering path in England, Australia and America, where he has developed clear examples of the components of a geriatric medical service. At the University of Melbourne he was appointed to the first Chair of Geriatric Medicine, and he has also been a consultant to the World Health Organisation. In America he was the Mitchell Distinguished Professor of Geriatric Medicine at the University of Texas Medical Branch, where he organised acute medical care of older people. In retirement he suddenly became a full-time 'carer' of disability in the family. Growing, effective support services are now available in the community and in homes. The spread of these good ideas is making the better care of older people in their own surroundings possible.
