This book comes out of a conference in April of 1999 at the Center for European Studies at Harvard University on the topic of 'Gender Parity and the Liberal Tradition: Proposals and Debates in Europe and the United States.' It is a collection of short essays that attempt to capture the theoretical arguments and policy changes presented at the conference. The essays are divided into three sections, each of which approaches from a different angle the central question of whether liberalism has failed women. The first section aims to frame the discussion by outlining the theoretical arguments for the amendments or revisions implied by the proponents of the Parity Movement in Europe and for the concerns raised by critics. The second describes recent changes in party rules, European legal framework, and national constitutions, as well as the gains made by women in response to rule change. The third section provides American perspectives on the lessons that parity advocates might draw from affirmative action policies and speculations about how parity rules would work in the American context. The essays are drawn from top European and American scholars.

Die Nachfolgebande der "Gynakologischen Endokrinologie" (1987) signalisieren bereits im Titel die Erweiterung des Fachgebiets, die aus den zahlreichen Neuentwicklungen der letzten Jahre resultiert. Hierzu zahlen z.B. der Nachweis und die Bedeutung neuer Hormone, neue Funktionsteste, die Therapie mit weiblichen Sexualhormonen, die Untersuchung von Umwelteinwirkungen sowie diagnostische und operative Techniken der Fertilitatschirurgie. Damit ist fur den deutschsprachigen Raum der aktuelle Kenntnisstand dieses Spezialgebiets umfassend und ausfuhrlich dargestellt. Mit zahlreichen Graphiken und Tabellen sowie ausgezeichnetem Bildmaterial sind deshalb die Bande Gynakologische Endokrinologie und Fortpflanzungsmedizin fur den Gynakologen in der Klinik wie in der Praxis ein wichtiger Begleiter.

Die Palliativmedizin widmet sich schwerstkranken, nach heutigem Stand der Wissenschaft unheilbaren Krebspatienten. Das Buch gibt einen Uberblick uber die Entwicklung dieses wichtigen Wissenschaftsbereichs sowie der Palliativstationen in Deutschland wahrend des letzten Jahrzehnts.

Die Bedeutung der engen Kooperation von Arzten, Pflegepersonal, psychosozialen Hilfsgruppen, Physiotherapeuten, Theologen und ehrenamtlichen Helfern/Angehorigen im Sinne einer ganzheitlichen Behandlung wird aufgezeigt und anhand eines entsprechenden Konzeptes dargestellt. Die Beitrage geben daruber hinaus wichtige Hinweise fur Kostentrager und fur im Gesundheitswesen tatige Politiker.
