 |  |  Mountain Resorts (Ecology and Law in Modern Society)Mountains are the home of significant ecological resources - wildlife habitat, higher elevation plant systems, steep slopes and delicate soils, and water systems. These resources are subject to very visible and growing pressures, most of which are caused by the unique features of mountains. Using as case studies four mountain resorts in four ranges... |  |  Toward the Elimination of Cancer Disparities: Medical and Health PerspectivesThe societal burden of cancer is one of the major public health challenges of our time, yet that burden is not equally shared by all. Troubling disparities have been documented not only by racial/ethnic group but also by social class, insurance status, geography, and a host of other factors. Furthermore, such disparities represent the end result of... |
