Musculoskeletal diseases are rapidly becoming a major health
concern. The incidence of osteoarthritis, the most common arthritic
disorder, is increasing steadily due to the graying of the world
population. This disease is responsible of human life, a time in
for significant morbidity, particularly in the second half which
the quality of life is of primary importance. The aim of this
publication is to bring to physicians and scientists a
comprehensive overview of the field, from molecules to men. The
direct costs related to osteoarthritis have been increasing
steadily over the years and will soon be comparable to those of
other major illnesses, such as cardiovascular diseases. This, of
course, does not take into account all of the other costs related
to the disease which often cannot be simply calculated in dollars
and cents. There has been a great deal of renewed interest in
osteoarthritis in the last few decades. This has been brought on by
the need to improve our knowledge of all aspects of the disease,
especially with regard to its etiopathogenesis and treatment. The
most recent findings and developments on the structural, bio
chemical, biomechanical and molecular changes observed in clinical
and ex perimental osteoarthritis are presented in this book."
Few families are able to pass along their wealth successfully to
the next generation. The barriers to keeping money in the family
are much more formidable than the barriers to making money in the
first place. Why should this be? What pitfalls are most common? How
can families and their advisers increase the odds of a successful
intergenerational transfer of wealth? How can they preserve the
family's human and intellectual capital?
Judy Martel, CFP(R), provides insightful answers to these questions
and dozens more in this richly detailed book. "The Dilemmas of
Family Wealth" takes a fresh look at the communications barriers,
misunderstandings, and generational conflicts that can pull
families apart and scatter their wealth in far less time than it
took to build it. Martel identifies the dilemmas that families are
likely to face and offers wise counsel for overcoming the
challenges they pose. Her book includes advice and perspectives
from top experts in the field and frank first-person experiences
related by family members with whom they have worked.
