An analysis of the lessons learned from tuberculosis control in Shanghai. Tuberculosis Control and Institutional Change in Shanghai, 1911-2011 is the first book on the most widespread and deadly infectious disease in China, both historically and today. Weaving together interviews with data from periodicals and local archives in Shanghai, Rachel Core examines the rise and fall of tuberculosis control in China from the 1950s to the 1990s. Under the socialist work unit system, the vast majority of people had guaranteed employment, a host of benefits tied to their workplace, and there was little mobility--factors that made the delivery of medical and public health services possible in both urban and rural areas. The dismantling of work units amid wider market reforms in the 1980s and 1990s led to the rise of temporary and casual employment and a huge migrant worker population, with little access to health care, creating new challenges in TB control. This study of Shanghai will provide valu

書中收錄給新手的重點詞彙集！從分析方法到AI基本概念，圖解所有應該掌握的知識圖表、數值種類、資料結果等，從基礎知識開始講解！技術相關項目也會圖解說明，幫助初學者理解內容！完整收錄統計學、AI基礎概念等相關知識！網羅資訊社會中資料運用的問題點與課題！資料科學家(Data Scientist)一詞已經使用超過10年，資料科學(Data Science)也時有耳聞。AI、物聯網愈發受到注目，IT工程人員紛紛投入資料分析的業務，運用他人的分析結果建構系統的事例亦不斷增加。相信不久的將來，在商務中使用資料會將變得理所當然。稍微掌握基礎知識後，會想要嘗試複雜的分析手法。然而即便完成高階分析，如果接收者無法理解分析結果，就失去資料分析的意義了。分析人員對分析手法會有深入了解，會仔細調查新的分析方法，但接收分析結果的受眾，不見得有充實的背景知識。因此，如果最後的結論相同，建議使用比較簡單的方法。即便不用高階統計方法、機器學習，簡單的圖表也足以解釋背後的意義。有時也不需要使用數值資料準確地分析，簡單易懂的圖解就十分足夠。然而接收分析結果的人不宜毫無背景知識，也不應因方便而要求使用簡單的分析方法。不僅是分析人員，接收分析結果的人的也需要學習。本書將會圖解介紹各種分析方法的概要，但收錄的內容終究僅是概略的內容，想要進一步深入了解的話，建議搭配專業書籍來閱讀。不過，了解有哪些分析方法、掌握各種手法的特徵，其實本書就綽綽有餘了。在運用手邊的資料之前，一起學習資料的分析方法及處理時的注意事項吧。-增井敏克

歐盟一般資料保護規則（General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR）取代過往95指令，其目的主要係強化大數據時代下數據主體權利，賦予其知情權、接近使用權、更正權、被遺忘權、限制處理權、資料可攜權、拒絕權與自動化決策限制權等八項權利，並課與數據控管者告知、採取安全措施、通知與遵法等義務。GDPR為目前世界最為嚴苛的數據保護法並設有廣泛的域外效力，在GDPR生效後世界各國數據保護相關法律規範亦隨之革新，我國為取得歐盟適足性（adequacy decision）認定，個人資料保護法以GDPR為修法方向。我國個資法以課與數據控管者義務為主，就數據主體權利幾乎僅規定於第3條與第11條，且未將各項權利可行使情形明確區分。本文就GDPR與個資法之數據主體權利、數據控管者義務與跨境傳輸等規範進行比較後，針對個資法不足之處提出修法建議。隨著科技發展，世界各國愈來愈重視個人資料保護，大數據帶來數據紅利的同時亦侵害數據主體，故本文主張透過建構完整的數據賦權制度使數據主體避免侵害或受到侵害時得以主張權利。除比較GDPR規定外，將《歐洲數據戰略》（European Data Strategy）、《資料治理規則》（Data Governance Act）草案及《電子隱私條例》（ePrivacy Regulation, ePR）草案重點納入討論並羅列可資參考部分，本文認為數據權財產化與衍生數據保護乃為將來數據保護規範趨勢，故亦探討數據權性質之轉變、數據財產化權利以及衍生數據之權利，提出完整建構數據賦權制度之建議，以完善數據保護規範。
