Abstract:

The prior chapter derived and simulated the most basic epidemic model, assuming that people can be in only one of three states (susceptible, infected, or recovered) and that people mix homogeneously throughout the population. In this chapter, the author examines how the Kermack-McKendrick model can be extended to simulate a wide variety of complex diseases and circumstances and be adapted to incorporate the complex ways that people contact each other. Once we leave the context of the Kermack-McKendrick model, the calculation of R0 becomes complicated, so that the researcher must resort to simu

Abstract:

The immediate context of this paper is the so-called ‘crisis in social care’ that finds its most prolific and unsettling expression in news reports about the verbal, emotional and physical abuse of elderly people with dementia in care homes. In April 2014, BBC One’s Panorama reported on the abuse of residents at the Old Deanery care home in Essex and Oban House in Croydon. In June 2014, one care worker was jailed and two others were given suspended sentences and community service for the ill treatment of women with dementia at the Granary Care Home near Bristol.

Abstract:

Pornography and Public Health explores the scientific evidence that helps answer the question: “Is sexually explicit media causing epidemic harm to human health?” It situates this question in the context of historical concerns that sex and sexuality have the power to radicalize people and legal cases that have defined obscenity in the United States. It reveals how pornography came to be considered a public health crisis in multiple US states despite a lack of support and involvement of any governmental public health agency. It also reviews peer-reviewed scientific findings that address whether

Balancing current and historical issues, this volume of essays covers the most significant worldwide epidemics from the Black Death to AIDS. Great pandemics have resulted in significant death tolls and major social disruption. Other "virgin soil" epidemics have struck down large percentages of populations that had no previous contact with newly introduced microbes. Written by a specialist in the history of science and medicine, the essays in this volume discuss pandemics and epidemics affecting Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia, covering diseases in ancient times to the present.

Abstract:

This chapter provides the relevant background on the network dynamics of complex networks formed by just one layer (single networks). Emergent properties of network dynamics are characterized using the framework of phase transitions. The major results on robustness of complex networks, percolation theory and epidemic spreading are presented, revealing the rich interplay between network structure and function. In this context particular emphasis is given to the implications of the scale-free network topology on these dynamical processes. Diffusion processes and synchronization and controllabili

Public health is in the limelight now like never before in times of Covid-19.

This comes on top of a contemporary stress epidemic in the workplace, whilst Brexit provides another level of threat to workloads. This book provides historical context and insights to aid our understanding of this contemporary crisis, critically examining the history of a neglected area drawing from an extensive array of sources.

Abstract:

This chapter discusses the spread of diseases over contact networks between individuals and the methods used to model this process. The chapter begins with an introduction to the classic models of mathematical epidemiology, including the SI model, the SIR model, and the SIS model. Models for coinfection and competition between diseases are also discussed, as well as “complex contagion” models used to represent the spread of information. The remainder of the chapter deals with the behavior of these models on networks, where the behavior of spreading diseases depends strongly on network structur

Abstract:

Although tobacco use has been declining in most high-income countries, it has remained constant or increased in other areas of the world, shifting to low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) was adopted in 2003 to address the growing global epidemic of tobacco use. The 181 countries that are parties to the treaty are required to adopt a range of evidence-based tobacco control policies and programs, including access to tobacco use treatment. This case study provides an overview of the progress and gaps in implementing the FCTC and demonstrates

In today's global climate of pre-packaged opinions, every effort of original thinking is an act of dissent. To think radically today is to be a heretic: committing ‘heresy’ not in its theological sense, but in relation to its ancient Greek roots, which means ‘choice’. With the rise of the post-industrial global village dominated by media networks and technology-led communication, the ‘epidemic of conformism’ has completely paralysed intellectuals' ability to question. It has now become critical to examine the central role of heresy in the formation of critical thinking and anti-dogmatism. Sinc

Both Marburg and Ebola virus diseases are zoonotic infections whose primary hosts are thought to be bats.
