From Crisis to a Regenerative Future

Early Mornings at the Laksa Cafe

A paradigm-shifting exploration of the politics of health around the world, by an award-winning scientist “Zaman’s optimism . . . is welcome. . . . His sense of urgency is irresistible.” —The Wall Street Journal&nbsp;on Muhammad H. Zaman’s&nbsp;The Biography of Resistance In this groundbreaking new book, award-winning scientist and author Muhammad H. Zaman delves into the history of infectious disease and related policies in the United States since the dawn of germ theory, from cholera and meningitis to the recent COVID crisis, to show how vulnerable communities have been harmed in the name of research or disease control.
Infected is the epic story of compromised doctors, politicians, and the heroes who challenged them. Zaman shows that exclusionary immigration acts, the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, the development of biological weapons, the fake vaccination campaign in Pakistan, and the rhetoric around the COVID-19 pandemic are all parts of the same deeper story—one of medical science intertwined with power and politics.
This is a story that continues today, in poor nations that have long been impacted by foreign policy, and at the borders, where asylum seekers are denied lifesaving medicines regardless of the party in power. Melding science and history, Infected presents infection as a key to understanding our recent past, present, and future.

A paradigm-shifting exploration of the politics of health around the world, by an award-winning scientist “Zaman’s optimism . . . is welcome. . . . His sense of urgency is irresistible.” —The Wall Street Journal&nbsp;on Muhammad H. Zaman’s&nbsp;The Biography of Resistance In this groundbreaking new book, award-winning scientist Muhammad H. Zaman—an expert on how disease affects vulnerable communities—delves into the history of U.S. epidemics, from the earliest cases of syphilis, cholera, and smallpox to AIDS and the recent COVID crisis, to show how the country’s response (or lack thereof) to infectious disease in America is part of a critical, time-tested strategy in America’s toolbox of oppression of the weak, the poor, and the non-white.In the vein of Rebecca Skloot’s&nbsp;The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks&nbsp;and Dorothy Roberts’s&nbsp;Fatal Invention,&nbsp;Infected&nbsp;is the epic story of white supremacists, compromised doctors, racist politicians, and the heroes who challenged them. Zaman shows that exclusionary immigration acts, the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, the development of biological weapons, the early response to the AIDS epidemic, the fake CIA vaccination campaign in Pakistan, and the xenophobic rhetoric sparked by the COVID-19 pandemic are all parts of the same deeper story—one of medical science twisted in the service of social control.This is a story that continues today, on Native American reservations, in foreign zones occupied by the U.S. military, and on our borders, where asylum seekers are denied lifesaving medicines. Melding cutting-edge science and history,&nbsp;Infected&nbsp;presents infection as a key to understanding our recent past, present, and future.

The Routledge Series Integrating Science and Culture

There are Many books apply neuroscience to social issues, using neuroscience to explain behaviors and human experiences (hate and love, criminal behavior, learning, and so on.) These are books that show the relevance of neuroscience for other fields in the social sciences and humanities. However there are still very few books that apply sociological and cultural frameworks to understand the social impact of neuroscience, and even fewer that try to understand 'practical' neuroscience or neuroscience as it is being used and experienced in everyday life. This book examines how the self is affected by the age of the brain. It offers a critical perspective on the rise of neuroscience.

"To get rich is glorious," declared Deng Xiaoping, the architect of modern China's economic miracle - but there has been a dark side to this rush to glory and riches, both for the winners and for those who have been left behind.
 
In Everything is Allowed, Nothing is Permitted Robert Foyle Hunwick tells the hidden story of how crime, vice and corruption have flourished in modern China. From the outbreaks of politicized lawlessness in the Mao years, the book charts the flourishing of criminality in the era of opening and reform through to the present day "strike hard" campaigns against corruption under Xi Jinping. There are stories here of business 'fixers', corrupt rural elites, notorious serial killers, spiralling drug use and the flourishing sex trade in China's urban centres. Hunwick looks beyond the official propaganda of a united and peaceful state to reveal a nation that is both built on and existentially threatened by an intricate economy of violence, dark money, power and influence.

Critical Food Studies

Children and young people's food practices and lifestyles are perhaps more visible and contested than ever before. Taking a Science, Technology and Society (STS) perspective, this book offers a groundbreaking and comparative research-based study on how recent 'healthy meals' policies are affecting children's practices both in the UK and in Italy. By looking at the trajectories of connections and disconnections that food makes with children's bodies, other animals and plants, and by examining how these connections are enacted in children's food practices, the book offers insights in the complexities of children's learning about food and in the bio-politics around school meals in the UK and in Italy. It is essential reading for scholars, policy makers and practitioners working in food studies, education, children and youth studies, environmental studies and dietry studies.

Children and young people's food practices and lifestyles are perhaps more visible and contested than ever before. Increased levels of public and media debate concerning young people's health, leisure and dietry activities has led to a number of recent policy initiatives aimed at improving the quality and healthiness of meals offered in schools. However, very little is known about how these policies affect children's (and their families') food habits, and how they intervene in what children know, think and feel about food and where food comes from. Taking a Science, Technology and Society (STS) perspective, this book offers a groundbreaking and comparative research-based study on how the recent 'healthy meals' policies are affecting children's practices both in the UK and in Italy. By looking at the trajectories of connections and disconnections that food - understood as a liminal object - makes with children's bodies, other animals and plants, and by examining how these connections are enacted in children's food practices, the book offers insights in the complexities of children's learning about food and in the bio-politics around school meals in the UK and in Italy. The book advances the food consumption literature and school meals agenda and is essential reading for scholars, policy makers and practitioners working in food studies, education, children and youth studies, environmental studies and dietry studies.

Since the first edition, the substance abuse prevention field has significantly changed. This book will provide the student with an new orientation to the changing field of substance abuse which includes three sections; Part I - the changing face of prevention knowledge; Part II - the changing face of prevention workforce; and Part III - the changing face of the prevention community. The approach of the proposed textbook will be to link science to practice, preparing both undergraduate and graduate students to work in the field of substance abuse prevention and to successfully pass the IC&amp;RC (International Certification and Reciprocity Consortium) prevention certification examination. This book is multidisciplinary because it pulls theories from a number of fields including psychology, counseling, sociology, and public health.
