Developmental Physiology

When William Windle published his Physiology of the Fetus, in 1940, he referred to Preyer's Specielle Physiologie des Embryo, published 65 years before that, as "long the only source of summarized knowledge concerning the activities of embryos and fetuses of many species." Dr. Windle then noted how "within the last decade of two" or some 40 years after Preyer, "interest has revived and a new school of developmental physiology has come into being . . . (though) . . . few biologists are aware of all that has been accomplished."

The Capability Approach

This book examines policy interventions driven or influenced by human development or human security concerns and how a capability approach can be implemented to achieve more just societies and foster equal opportunities for individuals and groups across the social and class spectrum. It also analyses the discrepancies and obstacles that actual policies present to what a capability approach could mean in social policy practice. The primary goal of the capability approach is to advance democracy at the community, local and national level in ways that promote genuine possibilities for agency to enable everyone to actively participate in shaping public policy. The book considers how the capability approach has been conceptualised and operationalised into practice in different parts of the world, including India, Buenos Aires, South Africa, England and New York City.

ABSTRACTGrowing Up starts from the premise that once the family nest is empty and professional activities have ceased, an elderly person is still a growing person. Even if specialists in human development who have dealt with this subject can enlighten us, the wisdom of certain characters in the New and Old Testaments can guide us in a special way. In reading the Bible, priests, pastoral counsellors and seniors will discover a companion which can help them in their reflections and which can also serve to guide pastoral interventions.
