Sommario/riassunto

Die aktuellen Probleme der lokalen und globalen Umweltüberwachung erfordern schnelle und zuverlässige Strategien zurElementspeziesanalytik. Diese Analytik ist die einzige, die zum besseren Verständnis komplexer Zusammenhänge beitragen kann, da sie eine Differenzierung der Elementgehalte erlaubt. Bei der erforderlichen Kombination von Trenn- und Detektionssystemen stehen Kopplungstechniken an erster Stelle, da sie in vergleichbar kurzer Analysenzeit aussagekräftige und zuverlässige Ergebnisse liefern. Erstmals wird hier diese zukunftsweisende Technik für die Elementspeziesanalytik z

Sommario/riassunto

This book addresses the ever increasing problem of obesity in children and adolescents, the long-term health and social problems that arise from this, and approaches to prevention and management. Aimed at doctors, and all health-care professionals, it will be of interest to all those concerned with the increasing prevalence of obesity in both the developed and developing world. It covers all aspects of obesity from epidemiology and prevention to recent developments in biochemistry and genetics, and to the varied approaches to management which are influenced by social and clinical need. A foreword by William Dietz and a forward-looking 'future perspectives' conclusion by Philip James embrace an international team of authors, all with first-hand experience of the issues posed by obesity in the young. This comprehensive survey of an important and growing medical problem will help inform, influence and educate those charged with tackling this crisis.
