This volume provides a broad and critical presentation of the behavioral and psychosocial treatments of Latinxs with dementia in the United States (U.S.) and across a representative sample of Spanish-speaking countries in the world. The compendium of chapters, written by researchers, practitioners, and policy analysts from multiple disciplines provides a deep exploration of the current state of dementia care for Latinxs in the U.S. and around the globe. The volume is designed to increase and strengthen the collective scientific and sociocultural understanding of the epidemiological and biopsychosocial factors, as well as the overlapping systemic challenges that impact diagnosis and symptom management of Latinxs with dementia. The authors introduce policy options to reduce risk factors for dementia and present culturally-responsive interventions that meet the needs of Latinx patients and their caregivers. Highlighted topics featured in the book include:Contextual, cultural, and socio-political issues of Latinxs with dementia.New meta-analysis of dementia rates in the Americas and Caribbean.Dementia-related behavioral issues and placement considerations.Educational, diagnostic, and supportive psychosocial interventions.Pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and ethnocultural healthcare interventions.Intersectionality as a practice of dementia care for sexual and gender minoritized Latinxs.Prescriptions for policy and programs to empower older Latinxs and their families.Caring for Latinxs with Dementia in a Globalized World: Behavioral and Psychosocial Treatments is a resource that accentuates and contextualizes the heterogeneity in nationality, immigration, race, sexual orientation, gender, and political realities. It is a key reference for a wide range of fields inclusive of demography, geriatrics, gerontology, medicine, mental health, neurology, neuropsychology, nursing, occupational therapy, pharmacology, psychiatry, psychology, rehabilitation, social work, sociology, and statistics all of which, collectively, bear on the problem and the solutions for better care for Latinxs affected by dementia.

Approximation Methods in Engineering and Science covers fundamental and advanced topics in three areas: Dimensional Analysis, Continued Fractions, and Stability Analysis of the Mathieu Differential Equation.

Self-organized criticality, the spontaneous development of systems to a critical state, is the first general theory of complex systems with a firm mathematical basis. This title is suitable for those interested in complex systems.

This, the third edition of the classic textbook explores fundamental theory as well as practical techniques and algorithms, and features fresh chapters on aspects such as database replication and integration as well as emerging topics such as cloud computing.

The third edition of this popular text has undergone a transformation and now covers both physical and organic chemistry rather than mere organic polymer chemistry. This volume also goes beyond competing texts in covering hot topics such as photonic polymers.

"Modern Compiler Design" makes the topic of compiler design more accessible by focusing on principles and techniques of wide application.

The Aquaculture Desk Reference serves as a concise compila tion of tables, graphs, conversions, formulas and design specifica tions useful to the aquaculture industry.

This book presents the R software environment as a key tool for oceanographic computations and provides a rationale for using R over the more widely-used tools of the field such as MATLAB.

The book concludes with a discussion of experimental future vehicles currently in development including the small waterplane twin hull vessels, wave piercing catamarans, planing catamarans, tunnel planing catamarans and other multihull vessels.

The construction of a Dynamic Markov Bridge, a useful extension of Markov bridge theory, addresses several important questions concerning how financial markets function, among them: how the presence of an insider trader impacts market efficiency;

Fifty years ago, a new approach to reaction kinetics began to emerge: one based on mathematical models of reaction kinetics, or formal reaction kinetics.

Useful as a text for students and a reference for the more advanced mathematician, this book presents a unified treatment of that part of measure theory most useful for its application in modern analysis. Coverage includes sets and classes, measures and outer measures, Haar measure and measure and topology in groups.

This book outlines a possible future theoretical perspective for systemics, its conceptual morphology and landscape while the Good-Old-Fashioned-Systemics (GOFS) era is still under way.

This book traces the development of the science of fetal and neonatal physiology and examines its role in the greatly improved care of women and their newborn infants. Includes reminisces of several dozen individuals who played a vital role in the field.

This book develops the theory of multivariable analysis, building on the single variable foundations established in the companion volume, Real Analysis: Foundations and Functions of One Variable.

Written to accompany a one- or two-semester course, this text combines rigor and wit to cover a plethora of topics from integers to uncountable sets. It teaches methods such as axiom, theorem, and proof through the mathematics rather than in abstract isolation.

Some of the central topics in number theory, presnted in a simple and concise fashion. All the topics are presented in a refreshingly elegant and efficient manner with clever examples and interesting problems throughout. The text is suitable for a graduate course in analytic number theory.

Written in an engaging style that renders complex concepts accessible to a wide readership, and with more than 450 exercises, this textbook introduces the basics of real analysis as well as more advanced topics such as measure theory and Lebesgue integration.

This book on focuses on the work of Ferdinand Frobenius in linear algebra, its relationship with the work of Burnside, Cartan, and Molien, and its extension by Schur and Brauer. Also covers the Berlin school of mathematics and the guiding force of Weierstrass.

Mumford is a well-known mathematician and winner of the Fields Medal, the highest honor available in mathematics. Many of these papers are currently unavailable, and the commentaries by Gieseker, Lange, Viehweg and Kempf are being published here for the first time.

This book primarily covers the general description of foodborne pathogens and their mechanisms of pathogenesis, control and prevention, and detection strategies, with easy-to-comprehend illustrations.

This book offers physiology teachers a new approach to teaching their subject that will lead to increased student understanding and retention of the most important ideas.

This second edition textbook offers an expanded conceptual synthesis of microbial ecology with plant and animal ecology. When it was published in 1991, the first edition of Comparative Ecology of Microorganisms and Macroorganisms was unique in its attempt to clearly compare fundamental ecology across the gamut of size.
