Sinopsis

Elderly Risks explores why older adults faced disproportionately high mortality rates during the COVID-19 pandemic. It examines how age-related immune decline, known as immunosenescence, and chronic inflammation, referred to as inflammaging, increased seniors' susceptibility to severe outcomes. The book highlights the significance of comorbidities, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, in exacerbating the effects of viral infections in this vulnerable population. Public health strategies and geriatric care improvements are emphasized as crucial for protecting older adults. Investigating the pandemic's impact, the book analyzes global health data and clinical studies. It considers how social determinants like healthcare access and socioeconomic status influenced the challenges faced by seniors. Vaccines played a pivotal role in mitigating risks, making vaccine efficacy and safety key topics. The book progresses through three parts, first introducing aging as a risk factor, then analyzing COVID-19's specific challenges for older adults, and finally focusing on the role of vaccines. Ultimately, Elderly Risks advocates for age-focused public health policies and proactive measures to enhance the resilience of older populations against future infectious disease threats. Its comprehensive approach integrates perspectives from gerontology, immunology, public health, and health policy, offering actionable insights for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and caregivers alike.

    "The Joyful Wisdom," written in 1882, just before "Zarathustra," is rightly judged to be one of Nietzsche's best books. Here the essentially grave and masculine face of the poet-philosopher is seen to light up and suddenly break into a delightful smile. The warmth and kindness that beam from his features will astonish those hasty psychologists who have never divined that behind the destroyer is the creator, and behind the blasphemer the lover of life. In the retrospective valuation of his work which appears in "Ecce Homo" the author himself observes with truth that the fourth book, "Sanctus Januarius," deserves especial attention: "The whole book is a gift from the Saint, and the introductory verses express my gratitude for the most wonderful month of January that I have ever spent." Book fifth "We Fearless Ones," the Appendix "Songs of Prince Free-as-a-Bird," and the Preface, were added to the second edition in 1887.

    The journey into the digital age began with the spark of human ingenuity and the desire to simplify complex tasks. Early civilizations laid the groundwork for computation by devising systems to manage trade, record history, and calculate astronomical events. These early tools, such as the abacus and mechanical calculators, may seem rudimentary by modern standards, yet they were the building blocks of a monumental transformation. 
    In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the seeds of the digital age began to take root. Pioneers like Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace envisioned the potential of programmable machines long before the technology to build them existed. Lovelace's notes on Babbage's Analytical Engine contained the first algorithm intended for implementation on a machine, earning her recognition as the world’s first computer programmer. Their ideas laid a conceptual foundation that would inspire future innovators. 
    The advent of World War II catalyzed the development of modern computing. The need for advanced cryptography, ballistics calculations, and logistical coordination drove governments and researchers to invest in computational technologies. Alan Turing, often referred to as the father of computer science, developed the Turing Machine, a theoretical construct that became a cornerstone of computer science. His work at Bletchley Park, cracking the German Enigma code, not only shortened the war but also showcased the immense potential of automated computation.

    Owen Flanagan, an acclaimed philosopher of mind and ethics, offers a state-of-the-art assessment of addiction science and proposes a new ecumenical model for understanding and explaining substance addiction. 
     
     
     
    Flanagan has firsthand knowledge of what it is like to be an addict. That experience informs this important and novel work. He pairs the sciences that study addiction with a sophisticated view of the consciousness-brain/body relation to make his core argument: that substance addictions comprise a heterogeneous set of "psychobiosocial" behavioral disorders. He explains that substance addictions do not have one set of causes, such as self-medication or social dislocation, and they do not have one neural profile, such as a dysfunction in dopamine system. 
     
     
     
    Flanagan explores the ways addicts sensibly insist on their own responsibility to undo addiction, as well as ways in which shame for addiction can be leveraged into healing. He insists on the collective shame we all bear for our indifference to many of the psychological and social causes of addiction and explores the implications of this new integrated paradigm for practices of harm reduction and treatment. Flanagan's powerful new book upends longstanding conventional thinking and points the way to new ways of understanding and treating addiction.
