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.

    Though adult cognitive development has previously been thought to be unyielding and static, Brain Weaver offers new hope and empowerment to remain mentally vibrant for a lifetime. 
     
     
     
    Doctors Newberg and Monti's team at Thomas Jefferson University's Marcus Institute of Integrative Health are at the forefront of research in brain functioning and applications of the most advanced understanding in real-world strategies to expand options for optimizing our complex neurophysiology. 
     
     
     
    Their findings show that optimal brain health is achievable by successfully weaving together a tapestry of our bio-psycho-social-spiritual dimensions. Brain Weaver also coincides with a decades-long surge in the public's interest in whole-person treatments—body, mind, and spirit evidence-based integrative therapies that include pharmaceuticals, electromagnetics, nutrition, and meditation. Brain Weaver's timeliness is all the more important now to address a new paradigm for post-pandemic wellness that emphasizes our individual and collective responsibility for proactive healthcare.

    “Fascinating” stories of real-life people and events that inspired the author of the classic adventure novel Robinson Crusoe (Historical Novel Society).   This book looks at some of the stories that inspired Daniel Defoe, author of Robinson Crusoe—stories of bravery, determination, and good fortune, as well as human negligence, sheer stupidity, and bad luck. In addition to an overview of Defoe’s life and his monumentally successful novel, it also considers some of the reasons why people found themselves cast away—as a result of being wrecked, abandoned as a punishment, or marooned by pirates, or even out of deliberate choice.   Major hurricanes in the eighteenth century causing huge damage to shipping and loss of life are also covered, along with catastrophes when ships were lost, and astonishing tales of survival in the face of adversity—down in the Falklands, in the Caribbean, and off the coast of Australia. It looks at how being cast away brings out the best in some—and in others the very worst. And it examines perhaps the most astonishing story of them all—sixty slaves abandoned on a desolate treeless island in the Indian Ocean and left there for fifteen years, some of whom survived against all odds.

    Dogopolis presents a surprising source for urban innovation in the history of three major cities: human-canine relationships. 
      
    Stroll through any American or European city today and you probably won’t get far before seeing a dog being taken for a walk. It’s expected that these domesticated animals can easily navigate sidewalks, streets, and other foundational elements of our built environment. But what if our cities were actually shaped in response to dogs more than we ever realized? 
     
    Chris Pearson’s Dogopolis boldly and convincingly asserts that human-canine relations were a crucial factor in the formation of modern urban living. Focusing on New York, London, and Paris from the early nineteenth century into the 1930s, Pearson shows that human reactions to dogs significantly remolded them and other contemporary western cities. It’s an unalterable fact that dogs—often filthy, bellicose, and sometimes off-putting—run away, spread rabies, defecate, and breed wherever they like, so as dogs became a more and more common in nineteenth-century middle-class life, cities had to respond to people’s fear of them and revulsion at their least desirable traits. The gradual integration of dogs into city life centered on disgust at dirt, fear of crime and vagrancy, and the promotion of humanitarian sentiments. On the other hand, dogs are some people’s most beloved animal companions, and human compassion and affection for pets and strays were equally powerful forces in shaping urban modernity. Dogopolis details the complex interrelations among emotions, sentiment, and the ways we manifest our feelings toward what we love—showing that together they can actually reshape society.
