英文简介: Tobacco use represents a critical global health challenge. The World Health Organization estimates that tobacco kills nearly 6 million people a year, with the toll expected to rise to 8 million annually over the next two decades. This detailed book, written by health and legal experts from institutions around the globe, examines legal issues arising from Australia’s world-first introduction of mandatory plain packaging of tobacco products.

The book offers an in-depth exploration of relevant domestic and international legal questions in fields such as intellectual property, constitutional law, health, trade and investment. The authors’ analysis sheds light on broader questions relating to the capacity of governments to regulate tobacco products and the tobacco industry, and to regulate in the interests of public health more generally. The answers to these questions are of vital interest not only to Australia but also to the international community, with states’ regulatory sovereignty increasingly being challenged in local and international courts and tribunals.

This timely study is designed to assist international organizations, NGOs, policymakers, and scholars in law, medicine and health-related areas. Health professionals and advisors will also find much of interest here.

英文简介: This seminal book delivers an international examination of the duty of medical confidentiality and a patient’s right to privacy in the face of contemporary developments such as cyber-security, patient autonomy, and the greater reliance on telemedicine post the Covid-19 pandemic.

Thierry Vansweevelt and Nicola Glover-Thomas bring together esteemed academics from across the globe to deliver an international perspective on medical confidentiality. Uniquely combining the concerns of patient privacy and data protection law, chapters are separated by global regions and outline a number of theoretical arguments supported by case-specific studies. Contributors assess which healthcare providers are bound by the duty of confidentiality, which information is secret, the exceptions to confidentiality, special cases such as genetics and privacy, and liability in cases of negligence.

Privacy and Medical Confidentiality in Healthcare will be of great interest to legal academics, students and researchers working in health law, data protection law and cyber law as well as scholars specialising in medicine and healthcare. The book’s focus on effective healthcare and protecting patient privacy will also benefit legal practitioners and professionals working in healthcare, social care, and data management.

英文简介: Kate Gunn was a social drinker, usually having a few drinks about three nights a week. But she had an inkling that alcohol was holding her back from getting on top of her life, and the hangovers were getting worse. So, when Kate’s partner had to take a break from alcohol for a month, in solidarity with him, she decided to dip her toes in the water and try being a non-drinker too. Not long into her transformational journey, Kate discovered that breaking free from alcohol improved every single aspect of her life: from relationships to health to work to happiness. By giving up one thing, she gained so much more.

In The Accidental Soberista, Kate chronicles the challenges and obstacles on the path to giving herself the greatest gift she has ever received - freedom from alcohol. Whether you’re sober-curious or want to remove the final obstacle in the way of your own health and life goals, this could be just the journey for you too.

英文简介: More than half of all men will develop prostate problems during their lifetimes, while one in eight will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. Even when prostate cancer is successfully treated, the side effects from the treatments (such as urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, and sepsis) can be devastating. Dr. Gavi, Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Stanford University, teamed up with researcher Maya Eylon to compile more than one hundred recent, reliable, and relevant international studies on the effects of diet on prostate health. The good news is that scientific research has confirmed that 50 percent of prostate cancer cases can be prevented by making simple dietary changes, along with screening for precursors, maintaining a healthy weight, and exercising adequately. Dr. Gavi summarizes these findings in easy-to-understand terminology, with each study fully referenced. Readers discover how key compounds in specific foods work to prevent cancer cells from forming. Cruciferous vegetables (glucosinolates), tomatoes (lycopene), soy foods (isoflavones), and green tea (catechins) are the superfoods that make a difference. Recommendations are provided for the optimum way to prepare these foods and for how much of each food is needed to reap the greatest health benefits. The two types of prostate check-ins (screening and diagnostic tests) are also discussed, and a prostate cancer self-screening checklist is provided . The findings and information presented are powerful tools that can empower men to make vital lifestyle changes that will have a significant impact on their health.

英文简介: Winner, 2020 Eileen Basker Memorial Prize, given by the Society for Medical Anthropology

The troubling dynamic of the American home care industry where increased independence for the elderly conflicts with the well being of caregivers

Paid home care is one of the fastest growing occupations in the United States, and millions of Americans rely on these workers to help them remain at home as they grow older. However, the industry is rife with contradictions. The United States spends a fortune on medical care, yet devotes comparatively few resources on improving wages, thus placing home care providers in the ranks of the working poor. As a result, the work that enables some older Americans to live independently generates profound social inequalities.

Inequalities of Aging explores the ways in which these inequalities play out on the ground as workers, who are disproportionately women of color and immigrants, earn poverty-level wages and often struggle to provide for themselves and their families. The ethnographic narrative reveals how two of the nation’s most pressing concerns―rising social inequality and caring for an aging population―intersect to transform the lives of older adults, home care workers, and the world around them.

The book takes readers inside the homes and offices of people connected to two Chicago area home care agencies serving low-income and affluent older adults, respectively. Through intimate portrayals of daily life, Elana D. Buch illustrates how diverse histories, care practices, and social policies overlap and contribute to social inequality.

Illuminating the lived experience of both workers and their clients, Inequalities of Aging shows the different ways in which the idea of independence both connects and shapes the lives of the elderly and the working poor.

中文概要: 过敏确实是一种现代疾病。仅在一百年前，“过敏”一词还不为人所知，随后才被确定为过敏性疾病的疾病，如哮喘、花粉热、湿疹和食物不耐症，通常被认为是罕见的、非致命的疾病，主要折磨着西方社会的文化和文明阶层。然而，到了二十世纪的最后十年，过敏症已经具有了更大的医学、政治、社会经济和文化意义。越来越多的临床医生、媒体和公众认为过敏症是一种广泛且可能致命的疾病。过敏症成为一种独特的临床专业，产生了新的诊断和治疗策略，并在此过程中为国际制药、化妆品和食品行业创造了一个利润丰厚的市场。马克·杰克逊的书描绘了医学社会史的全新领域，不仅对现代新疾病类别的出现，而且对疾病的历史地理提供了批判性的见解。通过这样做，它对卫生、医学和环境的历史提出了新的观点，并对文明和工业化现代世界的全球政治、经济和卫生保健意识形态进行了富有挑战性的评论。（WYL）

英文简介: Allergy truly is a modern malady. Only one hundred years ago, the term ’allergy’ was unknown, and diseases subsequently identified as allergic in nature, such as asthma, hayfever, eczema and food intolerance, were routinely considered to be rare, non-fatal conditions primarily afflicting the cultured and civilized classes of Western society. By the closing decade of the twentieth century, however, allergy had acquired greater medical, political, socio-economic and cultural significance. Increasingly perceived by clinicians, the media and the public as widespread and potentially fatal conditions, allergies became a distinct clinical specialism, generated new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, and, in the process, created a lucrative market for international pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industries. Charting entirely new territory in the social history of medicine, Mark Jackson’s book offers critical insights not only into the emergence of new categories of illness in the modern period but also into the historical geography of disease. In doing so, it presents a new perspective on the history of health, medicine and the environment and provides a challenging commentary on the global politics, economics and ideologies of health care in the civilized and industrialized modern world.
