Equity in Health and Health Promotion in Urban Areas: Multidisciplinary Interventions at International and National Level by Alessandra Battisti, Maurizio Marceca, Giuseppe Ricotta, Silvia Iorio
English | PDF,EPUB | 2023 | 235 Pages | ISBN : 3031161815 | 58.9 MB
The book explores approaches, methods and best practices related to health promotion in urban areas. Thanks to the increasingly tight connection among urbanism, architecture, bioethics, anthropology, sociology and medicine, we are now reaching an "ecological" health perspective. This new viewpoint has pushed the study of social health determinants and their unequal distribution in the population, resulting in the study of the generation of structurally-determined differences in health and healthcare. There is the need to make use of a unitary framework in order to understand the intertwining of multidimensional dynamics that define the urban context and the need to disseminate, enhance, and improve existing interventions in the field. This volume consequently results in the discussion and comparison of contents and methods to be implemented in multidisciplinary interventions related to the promotion of community-based healthcare and health in the urban setting.

2008 | 384 Pages | ISBN: 0195327950 | PDF | 5 MB

The first section of the book focuses on the rich theological, philosophical, and evolutionary foundations of scholarly thinking on envy. The second section covers the social psychological work on envy and includes chapters on social comparison processes, definitional challenges, the link between envy and schadenfreude, intergroup envy, and fear of envy. The third section covers research on envy from organizational psychology, experimental economics, marketing, neuroscience, and anthropology. The fourth section focuses on the implications of understanding envy for physical and mental health with chapters on psychoanalytic conceptions of envy, health psychology, and the challenges of coping with envy. A final chapter consists of reflective comments on all the chapters and brings together recurring themes and makes suggestions for future research on envy.

New York City during the American Revolution was characterized by a complex web of loyalties, with familial, political, and mercantile ties interwoven in a tightly packed space. British occupation was also characterized by permeable boundaries that allowed a thriving black market trading operation. With family members, often women, in particular, evading checkpoints and traveling frequently from New Jersey to the city, authorities had significant difficulty containing this illicit trade. On November 22, 1783, American troops led by General Washington and Governor Clinton entered New York City and ended the British occupation. Much was left to be determined-including the fate of New York's Loyalists and the status of enslaved people who enlisted with the British-but undoubtedly, the occupation left an indelible mark on the New York area. *Includes pictures *Includes contemporary accounts describing colonial New York *Includes a bibliography for further reading
