by José Llorente PrietoUna forma de política y educación para hacer un mundo mejor. El siglo XXI se nos presenta bajo unos parámetros globalizados y dinámicas complejas, abierto a unas nuevas dimensiones de vida -políticas, económicas, laborales, tecnológicas, sociales, familiares... y, por supuesto, educativas-. <P><P>Una nueva sociedad se está dando, un nuevo ser humano debe cultivarse para ajustarse a los nuevos parámetros y exigencias personales y sociales. En este trance surgen los interrogantes de siempre: ¿tiene la persona potestad para configurar su vida y su mundo?, ¿tenemos claro qué tipo de sociedad, de mundo, de ser humano es el más idóneo para la humanidad?, ¿qué tipo de pedagogía debe guiar la educación de ese individuo del tercer milenio? <P><P>La Pedagogía Personalista Comunitaria para una República Deontológica Socialdemócrata presenta una forma de sociedad, de pedagogía y de política educativa donde las partes se integran en un modelo común de desarrollo y evolución. <P><P>Para validar las hipótesis de partida se ha estudiado y analizado una institución educativa (Casa-Escuela Santiago Uno) que, desde su fundación, tuvo como principal finalidad incluir a los excluidos y el cultivo del ser personal y profesional para hacer un mundo mejor.Este trabajo presenta una república donde los ciudadanos y ciudadanas se hacen protagonistas de la acción política y educativa desde las virtudes humanistas y personalistas, con un sistema integral -económico, laboral, educativo, social...- de orientación mixta -educación pública, educación privada; educación formal, no formal e informal; Estado, mercado, tercer sector...-, donde todas las partes se dan y se compensan en beneficio de la colectividad.

Pediatric Metabolic Syndrome
by Sarah E. Messiah Steven E. Lipshultz Tracie L. MillerIn just under three decades, the world has witnessed an enormous rise in obesity with a parallel growth in cardiometabolic disease risk factors characterized by insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, together known as the metabolic syndrome - conditions previously unheard of in children and adolescents. During this time, we have little knowledge of the global and cumulative detrimental health effects of childhood obesity. As obese children age, not only will their health be negatively affected, but infertility and pregnancy complications associated with the metabolic syndrome will affect generations to come. The work force will undoubtedly be affected because of increased sick days and decreased work productivity. Identifying children and adolescents at the earliest stages of chronic disease onset should be the goal of clinical practice, yet there is no clear guidance for defining the risk of metabolic syndrome or appropriate risk-factor thresholds in these groups. If children are identified early in the disease process, lifestyle and clinical interventions can be instituted when they are potentially more effective. Pediatric Metabolic Syndrome: Comprehensive Clinical Review and Related Health Issues approaches the pediatric metabolic syndrome by elucidating its effects on specific organ systems and by considering the problem through understanding the social, psychological and economic consequences of it. The Editors have recruited an invited group of esteemed experts in the field to provide the most timely and informative approaches on how to deal with this health crisis. Through educating our practitioners, our future researchers, our health and community organizations, our legislators and our families and children, we have the best chance at improving the health trajectory of the next generation.

Pedigree
by Lauren A. RiveraAmericans are taught to believe that upward mobility is possible for anyone who is willing to work hard, regardless of their social status, yet it is often those from affluent backgrounds who land the best jobs. Pedigree takes readers behind the closed doors of top-tier investment banks, consulting firms, and law firms to reveal the truth about who really gets hired for the nation's highest-paying entry-level jobs, who doesn't, and why.Drawing on scores of in-depth interviews as well as firsthand observation of hiring practices at some of America's most prestigious firms, Lauren Rivera shows how, at every step of the hiring process, the ways that employers define and evaluate merit are strongly skewed to favor job applicants from economically privileged backgrounds. She reveals how decision makers draw from ideas about talent--what it is, what best signals it, and who does (and does not) have it--that are deeply rooted in social class. Displaying the "right stuff" that elite employers are looking for entails considerable amounts of economic, social, and cultural resources on the part of the applicants and their parents.Challenging our most cherished beliefs about college as a great equalizer and the job market as a level playing field, Pedigree exposes the class biases built into American notions about the best and the brightest, and shows how social status plays a significant role in determining who reaches the top of the economic ladder.
