As public infrastructure, health and other services are being
delivered more frequently through Public-Private Partnerships
(PPPs) and concessions, this timely book explores these complex
contractual arrangements involving cooperation between public and
private sectors. It considers how PPPs have become increasingly
prevalent following the 2008 financial crisis and examines the
applicable legal regimes that are still, to a large extent, unclear
to many. Containing in-depth investigation into EU law and
comparative national experiences in relation to PPPs and
concessions in 7 EU Member States and the UK, the contributions in
this incisive book address the weak points in the current legal
regime. Chapters analyse the risks faced by contracting authorities
in connection to PPPs and concessions while highlighting good
practices from different countries that may be considered for wider
adoption across the EU. Public-Private Partnerships and Concessions
in the EU will be a key resource for scholars and students of
public administrative law and businesses seeking to procure
contracts to create PPPs, as well as being of value to
practitioners and policy makers at both EU and national levels.

Principles and Practice of Yoga for Children and Adolescents
consists of contributions by expert scientists who have conducted
and published research on yoga in children and adolescents for a
variety of conditions and populations in peer-reviewed biomedical
journals. Each chapter describes the rationale for yoga in the
population or condition studied, reviews relevant related research
literature, describes their body of research studies and its
contribution, and concludes with a discussion on the state of the
field. To inform readers on the intricacies of the practical
application of yoga, each chapter concludes with a description of
the yoga intervention used, the development process that led them
to that treatment protocol, and the practical/clinical reasons for
choices of the specific practices.
Yoga has evolved into a popular fitness practice across the globe.
With the various schools of practice, it is imperative for
practitioners to study both traditional texts and emerging
scientific research in this area. Research-Based Perspectives on
the Psychophysiology of Yoga is a unique reference source for the
latest academic material on the physiological effects of yoga and
cultivating a deeper understanding of yoga practice through the
intersection of traditional texts and contemporary research.
Including a range of topics such as occupational health,
neurobiology, and women's health, this book is ideally designed for
professionals, practitioners, students, educators, and academics
interested in the effects, challenges, and benefits of yoga
practice.
What is a charter school? Where do they come from? Who promotes
them, and why? What are they supposed to do? Are they the silver
bullet to the ills plaguing the American public education system?
This book provides a comprehensive and accessible overviewand
analysis of charter schools and their many dimensions. It shows
that charter schools as a whole lower the quality of education
through the privatization and marketization of education. The final
chapter provides readers with a way toward rethinking and remaking
education in a way that is consistent with modern requirements.
Society and its members need a fully funded high quality public
education system open to all and controlled by a public authority.
While yoga was originally intended to be practiced for spiritual
growth, there is an increasing interest in applying yoga in all
areas of life. It is important to understand this ancient science
and way of life through as many perspectives as possible (e.g.,
based on biomedical engineering). As its popularity and interest
grows, more practitioners want to know about the proven
physiological effects and uses in healthcare. Evidence-Based
Perspectives on the Psychophysiology of Yoga and Its Applications
provides research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects
of yoga therapy and its physiological effects from diverse,
evidence-based viewpoints. The book adds in-depth information
regarding the (1) physiological effects of yoga; (2)
neurobiological effects of yoga meditation; (3) psychological
benefits related to yoga, such as mental wellbeing; (4) molecular
changes associated with yoga practice; and (5) therapeutic
applications (for lymphedema, mental health disorders,
non-communicable diseases, attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder, and trauma, among other conditions). Featuring coverage
on a broad range of topics such as pain management, psychotherapy,
and trauma treatment, this book is ideally designed for yoga
practitioners, physicians, medical professionals, health experts,
mental health professionals, therapists, counselors, psychologists,
spiritual leaders, academicians, researchers, and students.
A confessional-memoir, fictionalized, outlandish, outsized,
quasi-autobiographical account of the author's dating life over 18
years. Like "He's Just Not That Into You," it offers women critical
insight into the way men's minds work. Men will vicariously enjoy
the author's escapades, while also benefiting from a cautionary
tale.
