Sinopse

Tetanus, caused by Clostridium tetani, remains a global health concern despite effective prevention strategies. Tetanus Risks explores the bacterium's pathophysiology, the importance of vaccination, and proper wound management. The book highlights how tetanospasmin, a potent neurotoxin, disrupts nerve function, causing muscle spasms.

 
Vaccination is emphasized as the cornerstone of prevention, while proper wound care minimizes infection risk after injury. The book traces the history of tetanus from a widespread, devastating disease to its current status, thanks to the tetanus vaccine. It emphasizes that gaps in vaccination coverage and inadequate wound management continue to pose a threat.

 
Beginning with the bacterium's life cycle, the book progresses to explain how tetanospasmin disrupts neurotransmission. Subsequent chapters explore vaccine development, efficacy, safety, and recommended schedules, concluding with discussions on global control challenges. "Tetanus Risks" presents evidence-based information in an accessible style, empowering readers to understand and prevent this potentially deadly infectious disease. It draws upon data from reputable sources, connecting immunology, microbiology, and public health to enrich its argument for sustained commitment to vaccination and wound care.

    Side Hustle Safety Net - How...

    The first major study of how the pandemic affected gig workers—a sociological exploration that reads like a novel. 
     
     
      
    This is the story of what the most vulnerable wage earners—gig workers, restaurant staff, early-career creatives, and minimum-wage laborers—do when the economy suddenly collapses. In Side Hustle Safety Net, Alexandrea J. Ravenelle builds on interviews with nearly two hundred gig-based and precarious workers, conducted during the height of the pandemic, to uncover the unique challenges they faced in unprecedented times. 
     
     
      
    This book looks at both the officially unemployed and the "forgotten jobless"—a digital-era demographic that turned to side hustles—and reveals how they fared. CARES Act assistance allowed some to change careers, start businesses, perhaps transform their lives. However, gig workers and those involved in "polyemployment" found themselves at the mercy of outdated unemployment systems, vulnerable to scams, and attempting dubious survival strategies. Ultimately, Side Hustle Safety Net argues that the rise of the gig economy, partnered with underemployment and economic instability, has increased worker precarity with disastrous consequences.

  • Breached! - Why Data Security Law Fails and How to Improve It: 1st Edition - cover

    Breached! - Why Data Security...

    Digital connections permeate our lives—and so do data breaches. Given that we must be online for basic communication, finance, healthcare, and more, it is remarkable how difficult it is to secure our personal information. Despite the passage of many data security  
    laws, data breaches are increasing at a record pace. In Breached!, Daniel Solove and Woodrow Hartzog, two of the world’s leading experts on privacy and data security issues, argue that the law fails because, ironically, it focuses too much on the breach itself. 
     
    Drawing insights from many fascinating stories about data breaches, Solove and Hartzog show how major breaches could have been prevented or mitigated through better rules and often inexpensive, non-cumbersome means. They also reveal why the current law is  
    counterproductive. It pummels organizations that have suffered a breach but doesn’t recognize how others contribute to the breach. These outside actors include software companies that create vulnerable software, device companies that make insecure devices,  
    government policymakers who write regulations that increase security risks, organizations that train people to engage in risky behaviors, and more. 
     
    Although humans are the weakest link for data security, the law remains oblivious to the fact that policies and technologies are often designed with a poor understanding of human behavior. Breached! corrects this course by focusing on the human side of security. This  
    book sets out a holistic vision for data security law—one that holds all actors accountable, understands security broadly and in relationship to privacy, looks to prevention and mitigation rather than reaction, and is designed with people in mind. The book closes with  
    a roadmap for how we can reboot law and policy surrounding data security.
