Ian Cooks Schaffen ist von einer Faszination für die scheinbar universelle Mythologie des roten Haares geprägt, ein Interesse, das während seiner ausgedehnten Weltreisen geweckt wurde. Er befasst sich mit der kulturellen Bedeutung und Symbolik, die mit diesem markanten Merkmal verbunden sind, und untersucht seine vielfältigen Wahrnehmungen in verschiedenen Gesellschaften. Cooks Ansatz zeichnet sich durch ein tiefes Wissen aus und bietet den Lesern eine einzigartige und aufschlussreiche Erkundung dieses Themas.
Two meteorites from Mars land on Earth. Nothing will ever be the same again... Dr Mary MacDougall, red-haired NASA meteorite specialist, witnesses a terrifying supernatural event at the Great Serpent Mound in Ohio.
A Public Health Perspective
This book provides a critical understanding of contemporary issues within global society and how these relate to six case study examples (UK, USA, China, India, South Africa, Bangladesh, and Japan). The authors draw on their diverse experience to explore four major themes of contemporary relevance: overall aging of societies; governance and institutions; emergency services and public health provisions; and community activism and involvement. The key issues within the book--sociability, social capital, and community development--are examined in the context of an ever increasing aging world. The authors' sense of optimism is linked to growing evidence that community activism is on the rise and can effectively plug the gap between public need and provision of service.
