      "This report on the European Lead Market is based on a previous report entitled 'Health is Wealth - Strategic Visions for European Health Care at the Beginning of the 21st Century', which was prepared by the European Academy of Sciences and Arts and delivered to the European Parliament in 2003. The specific focus of the report dealt with all forms of health care, with the patient being the primary center of interest. Three clusters, which may be described as medical arts, medical organization and medical financing, are identified to serve the patient. These three clusters are integral to the entire process of shaping a patient-oriented health care system. To provide all European patients with the most modern and effective medicine possible, several strategies must be adopted to tackle the national health systems. On a European level the national regulatory obstacles must be overcome. National health care today is dangerously provincial and therefore outdated."--Back cover

      European Lead Market in Health Care
    • What is the nature of tolerance? Can it be engendered by religion? And how might different cultural traditions, whether religious or secular, assist in promulgating the vital principle of humanistic dialogue and benevolence? These are some of the urgent questions posed by this stimulating and wide-ranging new colloquy. Bringing together a wealth of wisdom and experience in medical science and in Buddhist thought and ethics, the discussants together address issues of vital current concern. They ask, for example, to what degree science and religion, as well as other fields of learning, may find common ground. They examine the pitfalls, as well as the opportunities, posed by genetic engineering. They examine the need for science to develop a proper ethical dimension, particularly in relation to weapons of war, if it is to realize its true potential. Exhibiting everywhere a sensitive humanity, as well as a deep respect for their different backgrounds, the participants exemplify in these civilized exchanges a mutual passion for developing dialogue as a profound and practical way of cultivating both toleration and peace.

      The Humanist Principle
    • The Danube Academies Conference is a new project of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts, bringing together all national Academies of the Danube region and focusing on the development in the Danube area. This idea is supported by the European Commission and Commissioner Johannes Hahn, who wants to see an additional drive for a fostering act in the whole Danube area. The first Danube Academies Conference took place in Vienna in 2011. In March 2012 the second meeting was held in Bratislava. Budapest was hosting the third Danube Academies Conference in September 2012, with the specific aim to develop a structure which demonstrates a vibrant spark for future meetings. The whole Danube area is an important upcoming area with a fantastic impact on Europe. It is an enormous future area from the Black Forest to the Black Sea.

      The uniqueness of human dignity must remain at the centre of all efforts to achieve this goal. They have to be maximised to serve members of society throughout their lives, both for cure and prevention. However, preventive medicine can only be practised in partnership with individuals acting responsibly. A healthcare system on a European scale is an enormous endeavour. Currently, there are severe differences evident in the national provisions. The dichotomy has to be addressed where individual national structures are oriented toward European standards, while the care to the individual is delivered locally. The Strategic Vision aims to address the need for an overall strategy that can be adapted and implemented on the local bases. It puts a specific emphasis upon cost containment. New mechanisms have to be implemented to control the cost of healthcare. Clear rules for delivery are needed to prevent the advent of multi-class healthcare. This requires the development of a new underlying philosophic paradigm.

    • Die Arbeit untersucht die Verwendung des Spurenmetalls Chrom in der Ledergerbung, insbesondere in Indien, wo die lederverarbeitende Industrie stark verbreitet ist. Ein zentrales Problem ist das Fehlen von Kontrollinstanzen, die den Umgang mit Chrom in Gerbereien und Zulieferbetrieben überwachen. In seiner oxidierten Form (Cr(VI)) ist Chrom hochtoxisch und kann schwerwiegende gesundheitliche Schäden für die betroffenen Arbeiter verursachen. Die Studie beleuchtet die aktuellen Herausforderungen in der umweltorientierten Bodenforschung in diesem Kontext.
