Bioética (o bioéticas) y derecho / Itziar de Lecuona Ramírez -- Comités de ética y bioética / Itziar de Lecuona Ramírez -- Bioética y ética médica / Itziar de Lecuona Ramírez -- Bioética e investigación en seres humanos y en animales / Itziar de Lecuona Ramírez, Fabiola Leyton Donoso -- Técnicas de reproducción asistida / Eleonora Lamm -- Bioética y sistemas alimentarios / María José Plana Casado.

Sommario/riassunto

El origen de la bioética, su evolución y su vínculo con los derechos internacionalmente reconocidos se analizan en el manual Derecho y bioética, que sistematiza también los textos considerados de referencia en una disciplina que tiene todavía pendiente su definición, vinculada a los comités de ética desde el pasado siglo XX. Derecho y bioética también analiza las aportaciones de la bioética a la ética médica, proporcionando ejemplos, y los aspectos bioéticos y jurídicos de la investigación biomédica en humanos, incluyendo el big data y la experimentación con animales no humanos. Asimismo, permite profundizar en las cuestiones bioéticas y jurídicas de la reproducción humana asistida, la gestación por sustitución y el diagnóstico genético preimplantacional. Finalmente, la obra identifica los retos tecnológicos, éticos, políticos y sociales de los sistemas alimentarios.

Sommario/riassunto

With contributions from the fields of pharmacy, dietetics, and medicine, Handbook of Food-Drug Interactions serves as an interdisciplinary guide to the prevention and correction of negative food-drug interactions. Rather than simply list potential food-drug interactions, this book provides explanations and gives specific recommendations based on the frequency and severity of reactions. Each chapter brings together the unique talents and knowledge of practitioners in different disciplines who provide a clear, thorough treatment of this important subject.

Sommario/riassunto

HANDBOOK OF WIND RESOURCE ASSESSMENT. Useful reference text underpinning the theory behind wind resource assessment along with its practical application. Handbook of Wind Resource Assessment provides a comprehensive description of the background theory, methods, models, applications, and analysis of the discipline of wind resource assessment, covering topics such as climate variability, measurement, wind distributions, numerical modeling, statistical modeling, reanalysis datasets, applications in different environments (onshore and offshore), wind atlases, and future climate.
