Natural and man-made disasters--earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions, industrial crises, and many others--have claimed more than 3 million lives during the past 20 years, adversely affected the lives of at least 800 million people, and caused more than 50 billion dollars in property damages. A major disaster occurs almost daily in some part of the world. Increasing population densities in flood plains, along vulnerable coastal areas, and near dangerous faults in the earth's crust, as well as the rapid industrialization of developing economies are factors likely to make the threat posed by natural disasters much bigger in the future. Illustrated with examples from recent research in the field, this book summarizes the most pertinent and useful information about the public health impact of natural and man-made disasters. It is divided into four sections dealing with general concerns, geophysical events, weather-related problems, and human-generated disasters. The author starts with a comprehensive discussion of the concepts and role of surveillance and epidemiology, highlighting general environmental health concerns, such as sanitation, water, shelter, and sewage. The other chapters, based on a variety of experiences and literature drawn from both developing and industrialized countries, cover discrete types of natural and technological hazards, addressing their history, origin, nature, observation, and control. Throughout the book the focus is on the level of epidemiologic knowledge on each aspect of natural and man-made disasters. Exposure-, disease-, and health-event surveillance are stressed because of the importance of objective data to disaster epidemiology. In addition, Noji pays particular attention to prevention and control measures, and provides practical recommendations in areas in which the public health practitioner needs more useful information. He advocates stronger epidemiologic awareness as the basis for better understanding and control of disasters. A comprehensive theoretical and practical treatment of the subject, The Public Health Consequences of Disasters is an invaluable tool for epidemiologists, disaster relief specialists, and physicians who treat disaster victims.

La publicación de esta cuarta edición de Toxicología Fundamental demuestra, por sí misma, el interés que la obra despierta entre estudiosos y profesionales, y no sólo de la Toxicología y ciencias afines (Ciencias Experimentales, de la Vida y Ambientales, Medicina Clínica y Forense, Ingenierías, etc.) que han agotado las anteriores ediciones. La obra no es un diccionario o catálogo de tóxicos sino una revisión progresiva y panorámica de la ciencia toxicológica en nuestros días. Aunque mantiene su estructura original de dieciséis capítulos, todos ellos han sido revisados, actualizados y ampliados, cuidando en todo momento que la exposición sea perfectamente asequible a lectores con diferente formación previa; por ello, las materias se inician con elementos de Biología, Anatomía, Química, Física, Farmacología o Medicina, que se van profundizando a lo largo del capítulo, tratando de incorporar los conocimientos toxicológicos basados en la evidencia más reciente y los avances sobre mecanismos de toxicidad que permiten comprender los procesos fisiopatológicos y las posibilidades terapéuticas; igualmente, las bases toxicocinéticas contribuyen al diagnóstico y a la interpretación de los resultados analíticos; se ha renovado en su totalidad el capítulo de valoración de la toxicidad y del riesgo tóxico. Se han introducido nuevos esquemas, figuras y tablas que ayudan a clarificar los conceptos con menor exigencia memorística. INDICE RESUMIDO: Desarrollo y evolución histórica de la Toxicología. Conceptos y definiciones: Toxixología, Toxicidad. Tránsito de los xenobióticos en el organismo. Biotransformaciones de los tóxicos. Fenómenos de inhibición, activación e inducción enzimática. Mecanismos de toxicidad. Factores que modifican la toxicidad. Interacciones entre fármacos. Antagonistas y antídotos. Evaluación de la toxicidad y del riesto. Toxicología experimental. Toxicología clínica. Diagnóstico de la intoxicación. El análisis químico-toxicológico. Sistemáticas analíticas toxicológicas. Bases generales para la asistencia y tratamiento de intoxicados.

Originally published in 1984 Natural Disasters shows how misleading the term “natural disaster” can be. Forces of nature such as earthquakes, cyclones and extreme variations in weather can trigger disasters, but in many Third World countries it is environmental degradation, poverty and rapid population growth which turn a natural hazard into major disaster. This book questions whether the rich nations’ usual response to disaster – fast, short-lived emergency assistance – is any longer adequate. Today, most major disasters are “development” gone wrong, development which puts millions of poor people on the margins of existence. Disaster relief alone is like bandaging a rapidly growing wound. The appropriate response must include an element of true development – development which reduces rather than increases vulnerability to disasters.

This book fills a gap in the literature on environmental sustainability by addressing the topic from the perspective of social and economic development. Progress in understanding and achieving sustainability requires the integration of scientific, social, economic, and legal issues. Yet progress in understanding and achieving sustainability will only be achieved through integration of scientific, social, economic, and legal aspects. A treatise on environmental sustainability should raise the current state of knowledge by proposing and recommending decision-making efforts and breaking new ground with agendas aimed for the younger generation. These younger scientists will be confronted with future uncertainty related to the set of crises that characterise the 21st Century (e.g. ecological, social, food, energy, environmental, climatic, financial, etc.). Currently, there are a number of indicators that demonstrate that ecological conditions are being compromised globally. These include reduced primary productivity, reduction in biological complexity, spreading pollution such as eutrophication, ecological degradation in any continental/basin/coastal/sea ecosystem, reduction in biodiversity, lowered resilience and slow recovery of damaged ecosystems, and reduced ecological integrity. All of these problems are related to social and economic pressure. The challenge for most ecological systems is not only to establish the baseline for current ecosystem conditions, but also to explore options for recovery and sustainability. The latter involves ecological restoration where ecosystem and environmental services are maintained and enhanced. These services are essential to social integration and economic development. This book not only introduces a theoretical and conceptual framework for the topic, but also analyses the uncertainty for sustainability because of dwindling natural resources. It includes contributions providing a basis for public policies, case studies integrating concepts and tools for solutions, and a set of position papers addressing new agenda topics that will shape the 21st century. The book will be useful for researchers, professors and students alike, as well as for all stakeholders from social, economic and academic sectors.
