Parenting in Global Perspective: Negotiating Ideologies of Kinship, Self and Politics (Relationships and Resources)
by Charlotte Faircloth Linda L. Layne Diane M. HoffmanDrawing on both sociological and anthropological perspectives, this volume explores cross-national trends and everyday experiences of ‘parenting’. Parenting in Global Perspective examines the significance of ‘parenting’ as a subject of professional expertise, and activity in which adults are increasingly expected to be emotionally absorbed and become personally fulfilled. By focusing the significance of parenting as a form of relationship and as mediated by family relationships across time and space, the book explores the points of accommodation and points of tension between parenting as defined by professionals, and those experienced by parents themselves. Specific themes include: the ways in which the moral context for parenting is negotiated and sustained the structural constraints to ‘good’ parenting (particularly in cases of immigration or reproductive technologies) the relationship between intimate family life and broader cultural trends, parenting culture, policy making and nationhood parenting and/as adult ‘identity-work’. Including contributions on parenting from a range of ethnographic locales – from Europe, Canada and the US, to non-Euro-American settings such as Turkey, Chile and Brazil, this volume presents a uniquely critical and international perspective, which positions parenting as a global ideology that intersects in a variety of ways with the political, social, cultural, and economic positions of parents and families.

Parir (edición actualizada): El poder del parto
by Ibone OlzaParir no es un manual médico, sino un ensayo sobre la experiencia más vital por la que pueda pasar una mujer desde el punto de vista de ella y del bebé. Un análisis de lo que pensamos del parto, lo que sabemos, lo que históricamente ha sido y qué significa en el imaginario colectivo. «Es interesante preguntarse el porqué de todo esto. ¿Por qué el parto tiene semejante intensidad psíquica? ¿Por qué las hormonas que lo dirigen son las mismas que producen la vivencia amorosa? Quiero pensar que la respuesta está ahí, en el amor. El amor entre madres e hijos o hijas, el amor como base de toda la evolución social y comunitaria que ha permitido el fabuloso desarrollo cerebral que produce el lenguaje y la inteligencia humana.Esta es mi propuesta: comprender el parto desde la psicología y las neurociencias. Partiendo de lo que cuentan las mujeres, integrar los relatos de las vivencias del parto con la ayuda de la psicología, la neuroendocrinología o incluso la neuroimagen. Intentemos integrar los datos y profundizar en el sentido último o evolutivo de lo que observamos.»Ibone Olza «Creo que con su excelente libro Ibone arroja luz sobre un tema complicado y controvertido. Y que va a ayudar no solo a las mujeres y a los profesionales de la salud a revisar la aproximación que hacemos al parto, sino que también ayudará en la tarea de recuperar el parto como algo que nos concierne, definitiva y profundamente, a las mujeres.»Del prólogo de Icíar Bollaín

Parkinson's Disease Management through ICT: The REMPARK Approach (River Publishers Series In Biomedical Engineering Is A Series Of Comprehensive Academic And Professional Books Which Focus On The Engineering And Mathematics In Medicine And Biology. The Series Presents Innovative Experimental Science And Technological Development In The Biomedical Field As Well As Clinical Application Of New Developments. Books Published In The Series Include Research Monographs,)
by Joan Cabestany Àngels BayésParkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that manifests with motor and non-motor symptoms. PD treatment is symptomatic and tries to alleviate the associated symptoms through an adjustment of the medication. As the disease is evolving and this evolution is patient specific, it could be very difficult to properly manage the disease.The current available technology (electronics, communication, computing, etc.), correctly combined with wearables, can be of great use for obtaining and processing useful information for both clinicians and patients allowing them to become actively involved in their condition.Parkinson's Disease Management through ICT: The REMPARK Approach presents the work done, main results and conclusions of the REMPARK project (2011 – 2015) funded by the European Union under contract FP7-ICT-2011-7-287677. REMPARK system was proposed and developed as a real Personal Health Device for the Remote and Autonomous Management of Parkinson’s Disease, composed of different levels of interaction with the patient, clinician and carers, and integrating a set of interconnected sub-systems: sensor, auditory cueing, Smartphone and server. The sensor subsystem, using embedded algorithmics, is able to detect the motor symptoms associated with PD in real time. This information, sent through the Smartphone to the REMPARK server, is used for an efficient management of the disease.
Parkinson's Disease and Nonmotor Dysfunction
by Ivan Bodis-Wollner Ronald F. PfeifferThe first edition of Parkinson's Disease and Nonmotor Dysfunction was published in 2005 to provide a source of detailed information that could be readily accessed by the practicing physician. The widely praised first edition described and explained these nonmotor features that had at that point received insufficient attention both in the medical and in the lay literature. Since the publication of the first edition, awareness and knowledge of the nonmotor features of PD has dramatically expanded, calling for a new edition of this important title. Timely, fully updated and expanded, Parkinson's Disease and Nonmotor Dysfunction, Second Edition, offers a state-of-the-art overview of the topic from the same talented group of experienced researchers and clinicians who were the driving force behind the first edition. Importantly, a range of additional aspects of nonmotor dysfunction in PD -- such as dermatological, vestibular, and dental dysfunction -- have been included in this second edition, which remains subdivided into five diverse domains: Behavioral abnormalities, autonomic dysfunction, sleep-related dysfunction, sensory dysfunction, and other aspects of PD such as oculomotor dysfunction, fatigue, and maxillofacial issues. An invaluable contribution to the literature in movement disorders, this revised and expanded collection of contributions by an even larger contingent of superbly knowledgeable authors will further increase awareness of the manifold contributions that nonmotor features may make to the collective clinical picture experienced by the patient with PD.

Parkinsonism and the Environment (Molecular and Integrative Toxicology)
by Nikolay M. Filipov“The book is comprised of individual reviews with the common goal of providing up-to-date state of the knowledge information on the role the environment plays in the pathogenesis of parkinsonism. The reviews focus on recent advances in the quest of deciphering the molecular and cellular mechanisms of parkinsonian dysfunction, highlight specific emerging dopaminergic toxicants and an alternative experimental model to study the link between environmental exposures and parkinsonism, and provide an update from epidemiological and experimental points of view related to the pesticide exposures and parkinsonism/Parkinson’s Disease association. Foremost experts in their respective fields are the senior authors on each chapter and the book fills a critical void that now exists as a book of similar nature has not been published in the last 15 years. Researchers and clinicians with an interest in Parkinson's Disease and related disorders, as well as toxicologists, graduate students, and the general public who are interested in the contribution of environmental factors to neurological dysfunction are among the readership for this book.”
