The current health situation has been described as chaotic and
devastating. Humanity's trust in the future and in its human
capacity to overcome a disaster of such magnitude is even starting
to wither away. If science still lacks a response to the pandemic,
can the humanities offer something to cope with this situation? The
world can adopt a historical perspective and realize that this is
not the first time a global pandemic has struck. Issues including
illness, suffering, endurance, resilience, human survival, etc.
have been dealt with by literature, philosophy, psychology, and
sociology throughout the ages and should be explored once again in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Handbook of Research on
Historical Pandemic Analysis and the Social Implications of
COVID-19 explores the issue of disease from a variety of
philosophical, legal, historical, and social perspectives to offer
both comprehension and consolation to the human psyche. This group
of scholars within the fields of education, psychology,
linguistics, history, and philosophy provides a comprehensive view
of the humanities as it relates to the pandemic within the frame of
human reaction to pain and calamity. This book also looks at the
impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on society in a
multidisciplinary capacity that examines its effects in education,
government, business, and more. Covering topics such as public
health legislation, sociology, impacts on women, and population
genetics, this book is essential for sociologists, psychologists,
communications experts, historians, researchers, students, and
academicians.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people had to cope with
isolation due to lockdown policies that forced them to engage in
fewer social activities. People were confined to the small space of
their dwellings and felt constrained and socially isolated and
deprived of meaningful social interaction and affection, which
caused stress and anxiety. Several initiatives were put in place to
help diminish the effects of isolation, such as those involving
literature either through writing or reading. Managing Pandemic
Isolation With Literature as Therapy explains the positive medical
and psychological effects of literature and writing during a
pandemic at a time when isolation prevented people from engaging
with others socially. Covering topics such as clinical psychology,
brain neurology, and stress, this reference work is ideal for
psychologists, medical professionals, policymakers, government
officials, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners,
instructors, and students.
The book contains a selection of contributions given at the 23th
Congress on Differential Equations and Applications (CEDYA) / 13th
Congress of Applied Mathematics (CMA) that took place at Castellon,
Spain, in 2013. CEDYA is renowned as the congress of the Spanish
Society of Applied Mathematics (SEMA) and constitutes the main
forum and meeting point for applied mathematicians in Spain. The
papers included in this book have been selected after a thorough
refereeing process and provide a good summary of the recent
activity developed by different groups working mainly in Spain on
applications of mathematics to several fields of science and
technology. The purpose is to provide a useful reference of
academic and industrial researchers working in the area of
numerical analysis and its applications.
Organizational justice - the perception of workplace fairness - can
bring important benefits not only to the health and well-being of
individual employees but also to the productivity of organizations
themselves. This timely new collection, with contributions from
leading researchers from around the world, considers organizational
justice in an era when globalization has resulted in rapid
organizational change, greater job insecurity, and increasing
worker stress. Both comprehensive and cutting edge, the book
initially considers what we mean by organizational justice in its
relationship to self-interest, social identity, and personal moral
codes. But moving beyond the perceptions of individuals, the book
also reflects the increasing interest in the roles of teammates and
leaders in creating organizational justice. There follow chapters
on the negative results of perceived injustice, specifically around
physical and mental employee health, as well as its deleterious
impact on organizational productivity. Providing a definitive,
state-of-the-art overview of the field, the book not only clarifies
the key concepts and ideas that inform organizational justice but
also explores their importance for today's organizations, managers,
and employees. Including a final section that both suggests new
areas for research and critically reflects on the field itself,
this will be essential reading for researchers and students across
business and management, organizational studies, HRM, and
organizational and work psychology.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
