Paracoccidioidomycosis

Paracoccidioidomycosis

Paracoccidioidomycosis continues to be a serious health problem among rural workers in many Latin American countries. This deep mycosis has many similarities to other deep mycoses that affect the developed world. Furthermore P. brasiliensis is becoming an excellent tool for basic studies (e. g. dimorphism hormone-mediated host interactions ecology). Paracoccidioidomycosis is an important publication with 30 chapters covering every aspect of the disease from its etiological agent P. brasiliensis to the clinical manifestations and treatment. The chapters are written by 45 specialists each one a leading figure in his or her area of research. This reference is the first of its kind to be written in English. The book is a valuable addition to the reference collections of basic researchers and applied mycologists as well as clinicians and others working with infectious and tropical diseases. It can also be used for courses on medical mycology.

Phylonyms A Companion to the PhyloCode

Phylonyms A Companion to the PhyloCode

Phylonyms is an implementation of PhyloCode which is a set of principles rules and recommendations governing phylogenetic nomenclature. Nearly 300 clades - lineages of organisms - are defined by reference to hypotheses of phylogenetic history rather than by taxonomic ranks and types. This volume will document the Real World uses of PhyloCode and will govern and apply to the names of clades while species names will still be governed by traditional codes. Key Features Provides clear regulations for implementing new guidelines for naming lineages of organisms incorporates expressly evolutionary and phylogenetic principles Works with existing codes of nomenclature Eliminates the reliance on rank-based classification in favor of phylogenetic relationships Related Titles: Rieppel O.

The Routledge Handbook on Radicalisation and Countering Radicalisation

The Routledge Handbook on Radicalisation and Countering Radicalisation

This handbook provides a theoretical and methodological exploration of the research on radicalisation and counter-radicalisation one of the most influential concepts in Security Studies International Relations and Peace and Conflict Studies. Sitting at the heart of high-profile research and policy agendas on preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE) radicalisation as a concept has transformed the way researchers policymakers and societies think about how to counter terrorism and political violence. Deliberations about radicalisation and countering radicalisation have become further embedded as efforts to prevent and counter violent extremism have been ‘mainstreamed’ into other areas of public policy and practice such as education gender relations health peacebuilding aid and development. Theoretically and methodologically pluralistic this handbook addresses radicalisation and countering radicalisation as they relate to a wide range of groups and milieus articulating diverse ideological positions drawing together insight and experience from multiple geographic and institutional settings integrating global perspectives and including scholarship focused on a range of policy fields. This book will be an essential reference point for anybody working on radicalisation countering radicalisation or terrorism and political violence more broadly. The insight that it provides will be relevant for both academics and members of relevant policy and practitioner communities. | The Routledge Handbook on Radicalisation and Countering Radicalisation

Routledge Handbook of Violent Extremism and Resilience

Routledge Handbook of Violent Extremism and Resilience

At a time of great global uncertainty and instability communities face fracturing from the increasing influence of extremist movements hostile to democratic and multicultural norms. Europe and the West have grown increasingly polarised in recent years beset with financial crises political instability the rise of malicious actors and irregular violence and new forms of media and social media. These factors have enabled the spread of new forms of extremism and suggest a growing need for a response sensitive to inequalities and divisions in wider society – a task made even more urgent by the COVID- 19 pandemic. The Routledge Handbook of Violent Extremism and Resilience brings together research conducted throughout Europe and the world to analyse various articulations of violent extremism and consider the impact that such groups and networks have had on the wellbeing of communities and societies. It examines different theories factors and national case studies of extremism polarisation and societal fragmentation drilling deep into national examples to map trends across Europe North America and Australasia to provide regional and state-level comparative analysis. It also offers a thorough exploration of resilience – a recent addition to counterextremism policy and practice – to consider how it has come to play this increasingly central role in Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism (P/ CVE) the limitations and opportunities of such approaches and how it could be shared developed problematised and deployed in response to violence and polarisation. The Handbook details new trends in both violent extremism and counter-extremism response within this increasingly fractured global context. It critically explores the latest theories of community violence extremism polarisation and resilience mapping them across case study countries. In doing so it presents new findings for students researchers practitioners and policymakers seeking to understand these new patterns of polarisation and extremism and develop community-driven responses.

Comprehensive Aphasia Test

Comprehensive Aphasia Test

The Comprehensive Aphasia Test (CAT) is a test for use with people who have acquired aphasia that can be completed over one or two assessment sessions. The test includes a user manual a cognitive screen and language battery and a scoring booklet which are all unchanged since the previous edition and - new to this release - a concise Aphasia Impact Questionnaire which replaces the Disability Questionnaire. The cognitive section assesses people's abilities across a range of task that can affect rehabilitation. Forming the main body of the test the language battery provides a profile of performance across all modalities of language production and comprehension. The Aphasia Impact Questionnaire is a pictorial Patient Reported Outcome Measure which produces both qualitative and quantitative information. It was co-produced with people with aphasia. It supports the person with aphasia to give a subjective rating of how language difficulties identified in the Language Battery affect their daily life enabling first steps towards goal setting. By capturing this information the CAT helps the therapist track changes over the course of recovery and provides a guide to likely outcomes on the basis of an early assessment. The first two sections of the CAT are supported by normative data on people both with and without aphasia and extensive data on reliability and clinical validity. The CAT allows users to: Identify underlying impairments Find where to focus assessments using PALPA and other batteries Ascertain the practical psychological and social impact of aphasia from the perceptive of the person with aphasia Create a profile of strengths and weaknesses to guide therapy. Structured around fully up-to-date models of language assessment from cognitive neuropsychology to patient reported outcome measures test is an indispensable resource for speech and language therapists and researchers. It provides as much information about people's language ability as possible in a relatively brief test designed to be completed in 90-120 minutes. Additional scoring booklets can be ordered in packs of 10 at https://www. routledge. com/Comprehensive-Aphasia-Test-Scoring-Book-pack-of-10/Swinburn-Porter-Howard/p/book/ 9781032128177
