Revisor del texto en español: Ricardo Sasso Revisor of the text in English: Cassio Conceicao Esta publicación bilingüe tiene el doble objetivo de describir cómo una pareja de ancianos enfrentó el aislamiento social de la pandemia de COVID-19 y de facilitar la comprensión lectora en español o inglés, según el interés del lector. This bilingual publication has the dual objective of describing how an elderly couple faced the social isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic and of facilitating reading comprehension in English or Spanish, depending on the reader's interest. Después de haber publicado "Um casal de idosos no tempo do vírus" en portugués y sus versiones en inglés ("An elderly couple in the time of the virus") y español ("Una pareja de ancianos en tiempos del virus"), el autor recordó sus estudios de idiomas, cuando mejoró sus habilidades de lectura en inglés y español leyendo libros de texto que no había leído en portugués (lo que, ciertamente, facilitaría la comprensión lectora). El autor ha considerado que, al publicar las crónicas en los tres idiomas, los lectores de un de los idiomas podrán ejercitar su comprensión lectora en los otros, crónica por crónica, leyendo primero en su idioma y luego en uno de los otros dos. Teniendo en cuenta el inconveniente del cambio frecuente de los libros, el autor decidió reunirlos en libros bilingües, intercalando las crónicas correspondientes. Es importante considerar que el tema del libro, la vida de las personas durante la terrible pandemia que asoló al mundo entero, es de interés general y tiene valor histórico. After having published "Um casal de idosos no tempo do vírus" in Portuguese and its versions in English ("An elderly couple in the time of the virus") and Spanish ("An elderly couple in the time of the virus"), the author recalled his language studies, when he improved his reading skills in English and Spanish by reading textbooks that he had not read in Portuguese (which would certainly make reading comprehension easier). The author has considered that by publishing the chronicles in the three languages, readers of one of the languages will be able to exercise their reading comprehension in the others, chronicle by chronicle, reading first in their language and then in one of the other two. Taking into account the inconvenience of frequently changing the books, the author decided to bring them together in bilingual books, interspersing the corresponding chronicles. It is important to consider that the theme of the book, the lives of people during the terrible pandemic that ravaged the entire world, is of general interest and has historical value.

'Pandemic and Narration: Covid-19 Narratives in Latin America' sheds light on how, as Covid-19 spread, infecting and killing millions across the world, life not only continued to be experienced but also continued to be narrated. By putting together this volume, we help understand what happened in the region from a perspective in which, unlike most of what we saw during the health emergency, numbers, statistics and percentages are not at the centre of the analysis. The essays gathered here foreground something else: the manifold ways Covid-19 was subjectively and collectively narrated in the news, government reports, political speeches, NGO communications, social media, literature, songs and many other media. From a wide range of disciplinary approaches, the contributors to this edition pay attention to how fictional and non-fictional stories, official discourses, as well as personal and political accounts, documented, represented and shaped the health crisis, laying bare how —in Latin American countries— the spread of the virus intersected with corruption, gender-based violence, inequality and exclusion, as with community, solidarity and hope. Readers will find that the focus on narrative provides an alternative source of knowledge on Latin America’s Covid-19 experience. Our perspective contrasts with the usual emphasis on death tolls, infection rates, weekly cases, vaccination counts, and the plethora of statistics that illustrated the gravity of the situation in the build-up to, during, and after the peak of the crisis. While extremely important to understand the situation, numbers do not tell the whole story. A comprehensive picture of the pandemic can only be achieved when the stories of the virus are accounted for. Health, after all, is no stranger to narrative. And neither is Latin America.

This book is the first of a new series which will present the proceedings of the newly established Nestlé Nutrition Workshop Series: Clinical & Performance Programme aimed at adult nutrition. Undernutrition is a common phenomenon in elderly people, and malnutrition reaches significant levels in those being in hospital, nursing homes or home care programs. Consequences of malnutrition often go unrecognised owing to the lack of specific validated instruments to assess nutritional status in frail elderly persons. The Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) provides a single, rapid assessment of nutritional status in the elderly of different degrees of independence, allowing the prevalence of protein-energy malnutrition to be determined and to evaluate the efficacy of nutritional intervention and strategies. Easy, quick and economical to perform, it enables staff to check the nutritional status of elderly people when they enter hospitals or institutions and to monitor changes occurring during their stay. Moreover, the MNA is predictive of the cost of care and length of stay in hospital. This publication will be of immense assistance to heads of geriatric teaching units, teachers in nutrition, clinicians general practitioners and dieticians, enabling them to better detect, recognise and start treatment of malnutrition in the elderly.

As our society ages, the topic of cognitive aging is becoming increasingly important. This volume provides an accessible overview of how the cognitive system changes as a function of normal aging. Building on the successful first edition, this volume provide an even more comprehensive coverage of the major issues affecting memory, attention, language, speech and other aspects of cognitive functioning. The essential chapters from the first edition have been thoroughly revised and updated and new chapters have been introduced which draw in neuroscience studies and more applied topics. In addition, contributors were encouraged to ensure their chapters are accessible to students studying the topic for the first time. This therefore makes the volume appealing as a textbook on senior undergraduate and graduate courses.

The influenza pandemic caused by the 2009 H1N1 virus underscores the immediate and critical need to prepare for a public health emergency in which thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people suddenly seek and require medical care in communities across the United States. Guidance for Establishing Crisis Standards of Care for Use in Disaster Situations draws from a broad spectrum of expertise-including state and local public health, emergency medicine and response, primary care, nursing, palliative care, ethics, the law, behavioral health, and risk communication-to offer guidance toward establishing standards of care that should apply to disaster situations, both naturally occurring and man-made, under conditions in which resources are scarce. This book explores two case studies that illustrate the application of the guidance and principles laid out in the report. One scenario focuses on a gradual-onset pandemic flu. The other scenario focuses on an earthquake and the particular issues that would arise during a no-notice event. Outlining current concepts and offering guidance, this book will prove an asset to state and local public health officials, health care facilities, and professionals in the development of systematic and comprehensive policies and protocols for standards of care in disasters when resources are scarce. In addition, the extensive operations section of the book provides guidance to clinicians, health care institutions, and state and local public health officials for how crisis standards of care should be implemented in a disaster situation.

[The book] is intended to meet the need for a text to accompany the Advanced Placement Spanish Lanugae course. The overall goal ... is to prepare students to perform at a high level of proficiency in the four basic language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Upon completing the course, students are expected to be able to comprehend formal and informal Spanish, and also speak, read and write cohesively and precisely at the third-year college level. [The authors] have attempted to create a series of exercises that will both meet the general objectives of the course and help the students prepare for the Advanced Placement examination ... Although geared primarily to the AP course and examination, the book is also intended to provide an opportunity for advanced learning. The exercises are desgined not only to review and reinforce students' knowledge, but also to increase their vocabulary and sharpen their grammatical skills. [The book] can be used as a complementary text in any advanced course in Spanish.-Intro.
