Disability, Health and Human Development
This open access book introduces the human development model to define disability and map its links with health and wellbeing, based on Sen's capability approach. The author uses panel survey data with internationally comparable questions on disability for Ethiopia, Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda. It presents evidence on the prevalence of disability and its strong and consistent association with multidimensional poverty, mortality, economic insecurity and deprivations in education, morbidity and employment. It shows that disability needs to be considered from multiple angles including aging, gender, health and poverty. Ultimately, this study makes a call for inclusion and prevention interventions as solutions to the deprivations associated with impairments and health conditions.This work was published by Saint Philip Street Press pursuant to a Creative Commons license permitting commercial use.

Handbook of Life Course Health Development
This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. ?This handbook synthesizes and analyzes the growing knowledge base on life course health development (LCHD) from the prenatal period through emerging adulthood, with implications for clinical practice and public health.It presents LCHD as an innovative field with a sound theoretical framework for understanding wellness and disease from a lifespan perspective, replacing previous medical, biopsychosocial, and early genomic models of health.Interdisciplinary chapters discuss major health concerns (diabetes, obesity), important less-studied conditions (hearing, kidney health), and large-scale issues (nutrition, adversity) from a lifespan viewpoint. In addition, chapters address methodological approaches and challenges by analyzing existing measures, studies, and surveys.The book concludes with the editors’ research agenda that proposes priorities for future LCHD research and its application to health care practice and health policy. Topics featured in the Handbook include: The prenatal period and its effect on child obesity and metabolic outcomes. Pregnancy complications and their effect on women’s cardiovascular health. A multi-level approach for obesity prevention in children. Application of the LCHD framework to autism spectrum disorder. Socioeconomic disadvantage and its influence on health development across the lifespan. The importance of nutrition to optimal health development across the lifespan. The Handbook of Life Course Health Development is a must-have resource for researchers, clinicians/professionals, and graduate students in developmental psychology/science; maternal and child health; social work; health economics; educational policy and politics; and medical law as well as many interrelated subdisciplines in psychology, medicine, public health,mental health, education, social welfare, economics, sociology, and law.

Nutrition : Food, Health and Spiritual Development
Our instinctive knowledge of which foods are helpful and which are harmful appears increasingly to be fading.We are bombarded with advice, information and prescriptions as to what we should eat and drink, but the issues surrounding nutrition - questions of health, diet, taste, even ecology and sustainability - remain largely unresolved. Unlike most commentators on this subject, Rudolf Steiner tackles the theme of nutrition in a refreshingly open way.At no point does he try to tell us what we should or should not be putting into our bodies - whether with regard to an omnivorous or vegetarian diet, smoking, drinking alcohol, and so on.The job of the scientist, he says, is to explain how things act and what effect they have; what people do with that information is up to them.However, he emphasizes that our diet not only determines our physical wellbeing, but can also promote or hinder our inner spiritual development. In this carefully collated anthology, with an introduction, commentary and notes by Christian von Arnim, Rudolf Steiner considers nutrition in the light of his spiritual-scientific research. He explains the impact of raw food, vegetarian and meat diets, the effects of protein, fats, carbohydrates and salts, individual foodstuffs such as potatoes, beetroots and radishes, as well as the impact of alcohol and nicotine.His insights are vital to anybody with a serious interest in health, diet and spiritual development.

Public Health, Disease and Development in Africa
The closure of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2015 prompted the need for a book of this kind.An interdisciplinary group of global health scholars contribute to the understanding of the emerging and fast-growing problem of the dual burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in Africa.This book is timely, as the international community has moved from the MDGs to adopt the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as the blueprint for a new human development agenda.Contributions and case studies are situated in the revised Epidemiologic and Nutrition Transition Model to capture the current situation, referencing communicable and NCDs on the African continent.The case studies encapsulated aim to help minimize negative health outcomes and improve population health, well-being, and equity in the future. This book will be significant in policy circles to assist international organizations, governments, and United Nations agencies.It aims to chart the future for health in Africa in light of recently adopted SDGs.This book is also a useful complementary reader for global public health related courses.

What is better: web development or game development?
The answer to this question depends on individual preferences and career goals. Web development is better for those who are interested in creating websites, web applications, and working with a variety of programming languages and frameworks. On the other hand, game development is better for those who are passionate about creating interactive and immersive experiences, working with 3D graphics, and game engines. Both fields offer unique challenges and opportunities, so it ultimately comes down to personal interests and career aspirations.

What is heterogeneous development?
Heterogeneous development refers to the uneven progress or growth that occurs within a particular region or country. It means that different areas or groups within the same region experience varying levels of development, resulting in disparities in terms of income, infrastructure, education, and other socio-economic indicators. This can be due to factors such as unequal distribution of resources, historical legacies, government policies, or global economic trends. Addressing heterogeneous development often requires targeted interventions and policies to reduce disparities and promote more inclusive growth.
