Abstract

Voeding is een belangrijk middel in de preventie en behandeling van ziekten. Voeding bij gezondheid en ziekte geeft hulpverleners inzicht in wetenschappelijk gefundeerde kennis over voeding en biedt praktische tools voor het handelen. In dit boek wordt veel aandacht besteed aan overgewicht en obesitas. Maar ook onbedoeld gewichtsverlies is een speerpunt. Naast voeding komen lichaamsbeweging, slaap en stress aan bod. Deze aspecten van leefstijl hebben veel invloed op de voedingstoestand en daarmee op ziekte en gezondheid. De inhoud van deze achtste druk is geheel geactualiseerd. De nieuwste richtlijnen voor preventie, diagnostiek, en behandeling van chronische ziekten zijn verwerkt, evenals vernieuwde aanbevelingen voor de inname van voedingsstoffen en voedingsmiddelen, en veranderingen ten gevolge van de Europese wet- en regelgeving.

Abstract

Recently, social science has had numerous episodes of influential research that was found invalid when placed under rigorous scrutiny. The growing sense that many published results are potentially erroneous has made those conducting social science research more determined to ensure the underlying research is sound. Transparent and Reproducible Social Science Research is the first book to summarize and synthesize new approaches to combat false positives and non-reproducible findings in social science research, document the underlying problems in research practices, and teach a new generation of students and scholars how to overcome them. Understanding that social science research has real consequences for individuals when used by professionals in public policy, health, law enforcement, and other fields, the book crystallizes new insights, practices, and methods that help ensure greater research transparency, openness, and reproducibility. Readers are guided through well-known problems and are encouraged to work through new solutions and practices to improve the openness of their research. Created with both experienced and novice researchers in mind, Transparent and Reproducible Social Science Research serves as an indispensable resource for the production of high quality social science research.

Abstract

The essays in this volume explore the moral foundations and the political prospects of the welfare state in the United States. Among the questions addressed are the following: Has public support for the welfare state faded? Can a democratic state provide welfare without producing dependency on welfare? Is a capitalist (or socialist) economy consistent with the preservation of equal liberty and equal opportunity for all citizens? Why and in what ways does the welfare state discriminate against women? Can we justify limiting immigration for the sake of safeguarding the welfare of Americans? How can elementary and secondary education be distributed consistently with democratic values? The volume confronts powerful criticisms that have been leveled against the welfare state by conservatives, liberals, and radicals and suggests reforms in welfare state programs that might meet these criticisms. The contributors are Joseph H. Carens, Jon Elster, Robert K. Fullinwider, Amy Gutmann, Jennifer L. Hochschild, Stanley Kelley, Jr., Richard Krouse, Michael McPherson, J. Donald Moon, Carole Pateman, Dennis Thompson, and Michael Walzer.

Abstract

Lorsque les fonctions naturelles de l'homme, qu'il s'agisse de ses capacités physiques ou mentales, se dérèglent pour diverses raisons (accident, maladie. vieillesse...), sa vie se complique... Aujourd'hui, un Français sur dix souffre d'un handicap plus ou moins lourd. Agir dans ce domaine, c'est prendre en compte des réalités complexes et multiples, qu'elles soient physiologiques, psychologiques, sociales, historiques, juridiques et administratives ou encore technologiques. C'est aussi, grâce à ce regard transversal, comprendre que le handicap n'est pas uniquement la déficience mais une situation dans laquelle cette déficience devient une gêne, afin de mieux agir sur l'environnement de chacun

Abstract

Boilerplate--the fine-print terms and conditions that we become subject to when we click "I agree" online, rent an apartment, enter an employment contract, sign up for a cellphone carrier, or buy travel tickets--pervades all aspects of our modern lives. On a daily basis, most of us accept boilerplate provisions without realizing that should a dispute arise about a purchased good or service, the nonnegotiable boilerplate terms can deprive us of our right to jury trial and relieve providers of responsibility for harm. Boilerplate is the first comprehensive treatment of the problems posed by the increasing use of these terms, demonstrating how their use has degraded traditional notions of consent, agreement, and contract, and sacrificed core rights whose loss threatens the democratic order. Margaret Jane Radin examines attempts to justify the use of boilerplate provisions by claiming either that recipients freely consent to them or that economic efficiency demands them, and she finds these justifications wanting. She argues, moreover, that our courts, legislatures, and regulatory agencies have fallen short in their evaluation and oversight of the use of boilerplate clauses. To improve legal evaluation of boilerplate, Radin offers a new analytical framework, one that takes into account the nature of the rights affected, the quality of the recipient's consent, and the extent of the use of these terms. Radin goes on to offer possibilities for new methods of boilerplate evaluation and control, among them the bold suggestion that tort law rather than contract law provides a preferable analysis for some boilerplate schemes. She concludes by discussing positive steps that NGOs, legislators, regulators, courts, and scholars could take to bring about better practices.
