The 41st volume of Annual Review of Gerontology and Geriatrics, "Black Older Adults in the Era of Black Lives Matter," reflects an important moment in the continuing development and maturation of research and scholarship on the lives of older Black Americans. The volume includes literature reviews and empirical analyses on a broad range of topics, including physical and mental health status, psychosocial factors and health, biomarkers, cognitive health, social networks and relationships, social isolation and loneliness, marriage and romantic relationships, discrimination, and cancer caregiving within the family context. In addition, it examines issues familiar to gerontology, such as relationships with family, intimate partners, and fictive kin. The collected works in this volume of the Annual Review of Gerontology and Geriatrics greatly enrich the understanding of the diversity of life experiences of older Black adults.Key Topics: Racial Discrimination and discrimination-related coping Stress Processes and mental health Physical functioning and genomics Marital and romantic relationship satisfaction Psychosocial resources and mental health

Men's Health Equity - A Handbook (Hardcover): Derek M. Griffith, Marino A. Bruce, Roland J. Thorpe, Jr. Men's Health Equity - A Handbook (Hardcover)
Derek M. Griffith, Marino A. Bruce, Roland J. Thorpe, Jr.
R7,338 Discovery Miles 73 380 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Worldwide, men have more opportunities, privileges, and power, yet they also have shorter life expectancies than women. Why is this? Why are there stark differences in the burden of disease, quality of life, and length of life amongst men, by race, ethnicity, (dis)ability status, sexual orientation, gender identity, rurality, and national context? Why is this a largely unexplored area of research? Men's Health Equity is the first volume to describe men's health equity as a field of study that emerged from gaps in and between research on men's health and health inequities. This handbook provides a comprehensive review of foundations of the field; summarizes the issues unique to different populations; discusses key frameworks for studying and exploring issues that cut across populations in the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, Central America, and South America; and offers strategies for improving the health of key population groups and achieving men's health equity overall. This book systematically explores the underlying causes of these differences, describes the specific challenges faced by particular groups of men, and offers policy and programmatic strategies to improve the health and well-being of men and pursue men's health equity. Men's Health Equity will be the first collection to present the state of the science in this field, its progress, its breadth, and its future. This book is an invaluable resource for scholars, researchers, students, and professionals interested in men's health equity, men's health, psychology of men's health, gender studies, public health, and global health.

Hansen's Children (Paperback, 2nd Revised edition): Ognjen Spahic, Nick J. Thorpe Hansen's Children (Paperback, 2nd Revised edition)
Ognjen Spahic, Nick J. Thorpe; Translated by Will Firth
bundle available
R474 Discovery Miles 4 740 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Appalling and tragic, Ognjen Spahic's exceptional short novel animates the misery of Ceasescu's Romania and its inglorious fall with a metaphor fully up to the task: leprosy. Gerhard Henrik Armauer Hansen was a Norwegian scientist who isolated the Mycobacterium leprae in 1873 and his 'children' are the tragic sufferers of this ghastly disease. In Spahic's novel, it's 1989 and a dozen of them are confined to the last leper house in Europe, an under-equipped facility located in a miserable corner of South Eastern Romania overlooking a toxic fertilizer factory. Here our nameless narrator shares a room with fellow-sufferer Robert W. Duncan, an American intelligence officer whose career was ruined after he was captured by Communists in Berlin. But Duncan still has a few contacts in the shadowlands, notably 'Mr Smooth' who has it in his power to liberate the two men by supplying passports and helping them out of the country. Blending Romania's turbulent 1989 revolution with a lyrical fiction that both shocks and enthrals, Montenegrin author Ognjen Spahic offers an allegorical page to Southeastern Europe's intriguing scrapbook. In 'Hansen's Children', the downfall of Nicolae Ceausescu's repressive control is witnessed from behind the walls of Europe's sole leper-colony. Powerless against forces beyond the leprosarium, the rebellious political change seen across the country influences and erodes the camp's brittle harmony.
