This book addresses the issues and methods involved in governing risks posed by genetically modified (GM) agriculture. It examines the evolution of policies intended to ensure the safety of GM crops and food products in the United States and Europe and the regulatory approaches and other social controls employed to protect human health, the environment, conventional farming and foods, and the interests and rights of consumers. Discussion encompasses the cultural, political and economic forces that shape the design and application of the methods of risk governance, as well as other contextual features such as the influence of multinational companies seeking acceptance of their GM ventures. This discussion also examines the influence of the dynamic public discourse fostered by progressive concepts of risk governance and the approaches taken to meet its demands for transparency, public participation and appropriate consideration of public perceptions and values despite conflicting views of experts.

This book evaluates and compares risk regulation and safety management for offshore oil and gas operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Norway and Australia. It provides an interdisciplinary approach with legal, technological and sociological perspectives on efforts to assess and prevent major accidents and improve safety performance. Presented in three parts, it begins with a review of the factors involved in designing, implementing and enforcing a regulatory regime for industrial safety. It then evaluates the four regimes exploring the contextual factors that influence their design and implementation, their reliance on industrial expertise and standards, and the use of performance indicators. Finally the book assesses the resilience of the Norwegian regime, its capacity to keep pace with new technologies and emerging risks, respond to near miss incidents, encourage safety culture, incorporate vested rights of labor, and perform inspection and self-audit functions. This book is relevant for those in government, business and academia, and anyone involved in offshore safety issues.

This book puts forward a comprehensive text that addresses routine uses of oxygen as a therapeutic modality as well as utilization of supplemental oxygen and advanced support of academic respiratory failure in the sickest patients with hypoxemia seeking care in medical centers. These centers range from rural or safety net hospitals to the most advanced academic medical centers. Oxygen supplementation may be one of the most commonly applied therapeutic modalities utilized in modern medicine. Despite this, a comprehensive discussion of the practical application of supplemental oxygen has often been limited to treatises that deal with the very advanced forms lung disease without educating the reader on the basics of oxygen in human physiology and the full spectrum of human illnesses that compromise oxygen delivery to the host. As highlighted by the recent pandemic, there are growing number of tools to improve oxygenation. The authors cover both harmful effects of oxygen delivery, beneficial effects, and a careful description of the risks and benefits to understand when advanced techniques can be life-saving and when they should be avoided. In 2018, a meta-analysis addressed the use of simple supplemental oxygen in a number of routine diagnoses including pneumonia, myocardial infarction, sepsis and stroke. The authors put this very important background into context for the modern physician guiding them on the appropriate use of oxygen to avoid the pitfall of increasing mortality without affecting important patient outcomes. Every practicing physician should be aware of the benefits of oxygen therapy, but must also understand the harms and how to avoid overuse.Beyond routine therapeutics, the authors review the use of oxygen in SCUBA and mountaineering so that the recreational enthusiast and the physician treating such individuals can be ready to understand the pathophysiology and therapeutic options available to the clinician. The authors also include chapters covering special disease states such as sleep apnea, carbon dioxide poisoning and methemoglobinemia to understand how these conditions can reduce oxygen delivery and lead to significant morbidity and even mortality.This is an ideal guide for all medical professionals who use oxygen to treat and help their patients.
