Sommario/riassunto |
|
International health and aid policies of the past two decades have had a major impact on the delivery of care in low and middle-income countries. This book argues that these policies have often failed to achieve their main aims, and have in fact contributed to restricted access to family medicine and hospital care. Presenting detailed evidence, and illustrated by case studies, this book describes how international health policies to date have largely resulted in expensive health care for the rich, and disjointed and ineffective services for the poor. As a result, large segments of the population world-wide continue to suffer from unnecessary casualties, pain and impoverishment. International Health and Aid Policies arms health professionals, researchers and policy makers with strategies that will enable them to bridge the gaps between public health, medicine and health policy in order to support robust, comprehensive and accessible health care systems in any political environment. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Dieses essential vermittelt auf eingängige Weise, worum es bei Albert Einsteins Relativitätstheorie geht und weshalb sie von so großer Bedeutung für die Wissenschaft und den Alltag ist. Zu Beginn erläutert Bernd Sonne die zugrunde liegenden Prinzipien und einige Beispiele der Speziellen Relativitätstheorie, anschließend geht er ausführlich auf die Allgemeine Relativitätstheorie ein. Anschauliche Gedankenexperimente verdeutlichen die Ausführungen. So werden die Theorien des wohl bedeutendsten Physikers des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts, der unser physikalisches Weltbild revolutionierte, für jedermann auch ohne spezielle Vorkenntnisse nachvollziehbar. Der Inhalt Grundprinzipien der Speziellen Relativitätstheorie Historie und Grundlagen der Allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie Experimentelle Bestätigungen und Anwendungen Entwicklung des Universums: Weltmodelle Das Anthropische Prinzip Die Zielgruppen • Studierende und Dozierende der Mathematik und Physik • Schüler, Lehrer, Ingenieure und andere Interessierte Der Autor Dr. Bernd Sonne studierte Physik an der Universität Hamburg und |
