    Childhood obesity is a growing public health problem involving excessive accumulation of body fat in children and adolescents. This condition is one of the most pressing concerns today, given its substantial impact on the health and well-being of younger generations. This chapter will discuss the definition and prevalence of childhood obesity, as well as highlight the importance of the topic in the context of public health.Definition and Prevalence of Childhood ObesityChildhood obesity is characterized by excess body weight that is associated with health risks. It is often assessed using the body mass index (BMI), which takes into account the relationship between weight and height. When the BMI of a child or adolescent is above the established limits for their age group, they are considered obese. However, it is worth mentioning that childhood obesity is not just an aesthetic problem, but a health issue that is closely linked to a number of medical conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and musculoskeletal disorders.The prevalence of childhood obesity has increased dramatically in recent decades. It has become a global phenomenon, affecting both developed and developing countries. The transition from less healthy eating patterns, combined with a sedentary lifestyle and constant exposure to ultra-processed foods , contributed to the spread of this problem. Childhood obesity rates vary by region and population, but in many places, the numbers are alarming and indicate a public health crisis.Importance of the Topic and Its Relevance to Public HealthChildhood obesity should not be underestimated as its implications go far beyond individual health concerns. It has a profound impact on communities, health systems and the broader economy. Obese children are at greater risk of becoming obese adults , increasing the chances of developing debilitating and costly chronic diseases. This puts a significant strain on healthcare systems, consuming valuable resources that could be allocated elsewhere.In addition, childhood obesity also influences social and emotional issues. Obese children often face discrimination, bullying and low self-esteem , which can hinder their psychosocial development. This can have lasting effects throughout life, affecting quality of life and productive participation in society.In light of these challenges, addressing childhood obesity has become a global priority. The need for effective preventive interventions, nutritional education programs, promotion of physical activity and changes in public policies is crucial to reverse this worrying trend. This book will explore these issues in detail, providing insights into the underlying causes, consequences , and multidisciplinary approaches that can be taken to tackle the childhood obesity epidemic comprehensively and effectively.

    A One-Stop Guide to Museum Careers  
    People who love art, are fascinated by archaeology, or are history buffs may have considered the idea of working in a museum. But experience as a museum visitor reveals only the public-facing side of the museum, and not its complex, dynamic internal structure. So You Want to Work in A Museum? helps to demystify museums as institutions and to prepare prospective museum staff to explore the field further. 
    After reading this book, readers will be able to:  
    Understand how non-profit museums are governed, funded, and staffed, and how they define and meet their missions.Explore museum divisions and departments and specific roles within them--not just prominent roles like directors and curators, but also less visible ones like registrars, preparators, development officers, conservators, and more. 
    Consider the contemporary function of museums, and how yesterday's cabinets of curiosity have evolved into today's community catalysts. Examine how the contemporary function of museums has affected the types of positions available and the work museum staff do on a daily basis. 
    Look at the skills required for different types of positions, and how readers aspiring to work in those positions can best prepare themselves to land their dream jobs and be successful in them. 
    Understand the benefits and potential challenges of working in a museum, and 
    Access a wealth of resources that will inspire further study of the field, and outline next steps to pursue a museum career.

    Osman I, also known as Osman Ghazi, was the founder of the Ottoman dynasty and the ruler of the Kayi tribe, a key figure in the creation of one of history's most influential empires. The state he established, originally called the Ottoman Beylik or Emirate, grew from a small Turkmen principality in the late thirteenth century into a global power, dominating much of Southeastern Europe, Western Asia, and North Africa for centuries. While the empire he founded lasted until the end of World War I, the man himself remains shrouded in mystery. 
    Due to the scarcity of historical records from Osman’s lifetime, much of what is known about him is based on oral traditions and legends that developed long after his death. There are no known contemporary written sources from his reign, and the Ottomans themselves did not document his life until the fifteenth century, over a hundred years after he passed away. This gap in documentation has made it difficult for historians to separate fact from fiction, with some scholars even describing the period of Osman's life as a "black hole" of historical knowledge, unable to be reconstructed with certainty. 
    The traditional accounts of Osman’s ancestry trace his lineage to the Oghuz Turks, specifically the Kay tribe. However, many historians believe that the stories surrounding his ancestry were fabricated later to legitimize the Ottoman dynasty’s rule. These narratives were likely developed as the dynasty sought to strengthen its claim to power and emphasize its noble heritage.
