Описание: Introduces fundamental concepts, major models, and popular applications of pattern recognition for a one-semester undergraduate course. The text focuses on a relatively small number of core concepts with an abundance of illustrations and examples and provides extensive practice through student exercises.
Genetic screening technologies involving pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) raise particular issues about selective reproduction and the welfare of the child to be born. How does selection impact on the identity of the child who is born? Are children who are selected for a particular purpose harmed or treated as commodities? How far should the state interfere with parents' reproductive choices?
Currently, concerns about the welfare of the child in selective reproduction have focused on the individual interests of the child to be born. This book re-evaluates the welfare of the child through the controversial topic of saviour sibling selection. Drawing on relational feminist and communitarian ethics, Michelle Taylor-Sands argues that the welfare of the child to be born is inextricably linked with the welfare of his/her family. The author proposes a relational model for selective reproduction based on a broad conception of the welfare of the child that includes both individual and collective family interests. By comparing regulation in the UK and Australia, the book maps out how law and policy might support a relational model for saviour sibling selection.
With an interdisciplinary focus, Saviour Siblings: A Relational Approach to the Welfare of the Child in Selective Reproduction will be of particular interest to academics and students of bioethics and law as well as practitioners and policymakers concerned with the ethics of selective reproduction.

Описание: Delivers strategic, evidence-based measures for recognizing and treating abnormal behaviors in children in the content of primary care practice.Written for practicing Pediatric and Family Nurse Practitioners, and PNP and FNP students, this pediatric primary care text expands upon the crucial role of the health care provider to assess, identify, and intercept potential behavioral health problems. Every parent wants to see their child become a socially and emotionally healthy adult, but this cannot be the outcome for every family. When children miss their milestones as anticipated, parents and the family dynamic is upset – parents question their parenting skills and their ability to raise a socially and emotionally healthy child.
