Sinopse

In "The Forest Farm: Tales of the Austrian Tyrol," Peter Rosegger intricately weaves a collection of narratives that capture the essence of rural life in the Austrian Alps. Through a blend of folkloric elements and poignant realism, the stories explore the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature, emphasizing themes of community, resilience, and the timeless bond with the land. Rosegger's evocative prose is peppered with local dialects and vivid imagery, immersing readers in the serene yet challenging existence of Tyrolean farmers, and reflecting the broader socio-cultural dynamics of late 19th-century Austria. Peter Rosegger, himself a native of the Styrian region, grew up in a modest farming family that shaped his worldview and inspired his literary pursuits. His firsthand experience of agrarian life and the trials faced by rural communities led him to write with remarkable authenticity. Rosegger's work often advocates for the appreciation of nature and the preservation of traditional lifestyles, echoing the effects of industrialization that threatened the pastoral landscape of his youth. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the interplay between culture and the natural environment. Rosegger'Äôs nuanced storytelling not only entertains but also invites introspection about the values of simplicity and connection to the land, making it a timeless contribution to Austrian literature.

    Epidemiology plays an all-important role in many areas of medicine, from discovering the relationship between tobacco smoking and lung cancer, to documenting the impact of diet, the environment, and exercise on general health, to tracking the origin and spread of new epidemics such as Swine 
    Flu. It is truly a vital field, central to the health of society, but it is often poorly understood, largely due to misrepresentations in the media. In this Very Short Introduction, an internationally recognized authority on epidemiology, Dr. Rodolfo Saracci, provides a wealth of information on this key field, dispelling some of the myths surrounding the study of epidemiology, and explaining what epidemiology is and how vital it is to the discovery, control, and prevention of disease in world populations. Dr. Saracci provides a general explanation of the principles behind clinical trials, and explains the nature of basic statistics concerning disease. He also looks at the ethical and political issues related to obtaining and using information concerning patients, and trials involving placebos.
