A obra foi proposta em razão do meteórico aumento das ações de erro médico, ao ponto de já estar sendo considerado um problema de saúde pública. Esse fato denuncia o afastamento da ética da relação médico-paciente e aponta para um dos mais deploráveis dramas decorrentes da violação da cidadania, notadamente no que concerne aos sacrossantos direitos à vida e à saúde. Os autores procuram demonstrar que as pessoas, para além de terem seus direitos lesados por profissionais da área da saúde que violam a sacralidade humana inobservando os princípios éticos e as normas técnicas, são também, surpreendentemente, "(pluri)vitimizadas", vale dizer – atingidas pluralmente em seus direitos fundamentais –, pelo próprio Poder Judiciário do qual aspiravam receber justiça e absoluta proteção.
No contexto em que sentimentos de angústia, impotência e lamento invadem milhares de corações humanos, eminentes juristas e pesquisadores se uniram para a construção da presente obra coletiva intitulada "Coronavírus: direitos dos cidadãos e acesso à justiça", que contempla a análise de aspectos dogmáticos e pragmáticos de notórias e relevantes implicações da pandemia covid-19 na seara jurídica, sobretudo com ênfase nos direitos dos cidadãos. A trágica pandemia da covid-19, outrora inimaginável, impactou a vida das pessoas em todo o planeta causando medo e sofrimento; a súbita destruição de famílias, destinos e sonhos gerou registros negativamente inolvidáveis na his...

Biobanking, an emerging field supported by academia, industry and health administrators alike, is distinctly different today from the practice that once defined it. The science of Biobanking, which initially involved simply storing blood or tissue samples in a freezer, is now a highly sophisticated field of research, and expected to grow exponentially over the next decade or two. This book aims to serve the purpose of further enriching the available literature on Biobanking, by offering unique and more useful collection of ideas for the future. The book outlines the experiences of developing modern Biobanking repositories in different countries, whilst covering specific topics regarding the many aspects of Biobanking. This book will be of interest to a wide range of readers including: academics, students, volunteers and advocates of patients’ rights.
A member of Brazil's avant-garde in its heyday. Patr�cia Galv?o (or to use her nickname, Pagu) was extraordinary. Not only was her work among the most exciting and innovative published in the 1930s, it was unique in portraying an avant-garde woman's view of women in Sao Paulo during that audacious period.øIndustrial Park, first published in 1933, is Galv?o's most notable literary achieve-ment. Like D”blin's portrayal of Berlin in Alexanderplatz or Biely's St Petersburg, it is a book about the voices, clashes, and traffic of a city in the middle of rapid change. It includes fragments of public documents as well as dialogue and narration, giving a panorama of the city in a sequence of col...
This book, originally published in 1987, is a socio-cultural analysis of a tropical belle epoque: Rio de Janeiro between 1898 and 1914. It relates how the city's elite evolved from the semi-rural, slave-owning patriarchy of the coffee-port seat of a monarchy into an urbane, professional, rentier upper crust dominating the centre of a 'modernising' oligarchical republic. It explores such varied topics as architecture, literature, prostitution, urban reform, the family, secondary schools, and the salon. It evokes a milieu increasingly marked by Europe, demonstrating how French and English culture permeated the lives of elite members who adapted it to their needs and perspectives as a dominant stratum of relatively recent and varied origin. This exploration of cultural 'dependency' in a unique, cosmopolitan, fin-de-siecle urban culture will also interest those concerned with the broader questions of culture and colonialism during the high tide of European imperialism.

Arbitrating cross-border business disputes has been common practice in Italy since centuries. It is no wonder, then, that Italian arbitration law and jurisprudence are ample and sophisticated. Italian courts have already rendered thousands of judgments addressing complex problems hidden in the regulation of arbitration. Italian jurists have been among the outstanding members of the international arbitration community, starting from when back in 1958, Professor Eugenio Minoli was among the promoters of the New York Convention. Being Italy the third-largest economy in the European Union and the eighth-largest economy by nominal GDP in the world, it also comes as no surprise that Italian compan...
Women, Business and the Law 2020, the sixth edition in a series, analyzes laws and regulations affecting women's economic inclusion in 190 economies. The Women, Business and the Law Index, composed by eight indicators structured around women's interactions with the law as they begin, progress through and end their careers, aligns different areas of the law with the economic decisions women make at various stages of their lives. The indicators are: Mobility, Workplace, Pay, Marriage, Parenthood, Entrepreneurship, Assets, and Pension.The report updates all indicators as of September 1, 2019, and builds evidence around the linkages between legal gender equality and women's economic inclusion. By examining the economic decisions women make as they go through different stages of their working lives and the pace of reforms over the past 2 years, Women, Business and the Law makes an important contribution to research and policy discussions about the state of women's economic opportunities and empowerment. While celebrating the progress made, the data and analysis emphasize the work still to be done to ensure economic empowerment for all.
