      Mindfulness and Character Strengths - A Practical Guide to Flourishing

      by Ryan M. Niemiec

      At the core of this hands-on resource for psychologists and other practitioners, including educators, coaches, and consultants, is Mindfulness-Based Strengths Practice (MBSP), the first structured program to combine mindfulness with the character strengths laid out in the VIA Institute's classification developed by Drs. Martin E. P. Seligman and Christopher Peterson. This 8-session program systematically boosts awareness and application of character strengths. The first section of the book consists of a detailed primer on mindfulness and character strengths while the second part goes into more detail about the integration of mindfulness and character strengths. The third section then leads readers step-by-step through each of the 8 MBSP sessions, including details of session structure and content, suggested homework, 30 practical handouts, as well as inspiring quotes and stories and useful practitioner tips. An additional chapter discusses the adaption of MBSP to different settings and populations (e.g., business, education, individuals, couples). The mindfulness and character strengths meditations on the accompanying CD support growth and development. Target Group: Psychologists, consultants, therapists and counselors, and all those interested in mindfulness, positive psychology, and improving life.

      Theory and Clinical Practice of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion (in Chinese and English)
      Medicine

      Theory and Clinical Practice of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion (in Chinese and English)

      by Chen Shaozong

      For decades, Prof. Chen Shaozong has been dedicating to the research on the modern acupuncture and moxibustion system that is different from the traditional paradigm. As early as 1990, he published Theory and Clinical Application of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion. The book is the prototype of the modern acupuncture and moxibustion system, though it contains merely 100,000 Chinese characters. 21 years later in 2011, Prof. Chen Shaozong published Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion that contains nearly 1 million Chinese characters with more informative content and a more comprehensive theoretical system. At the same time, as acupuncture and moxibustion grows into a more international discipline, the European and American community of acupuncture and combustion is going beyond the study of traditional acupuncture and moxibustion to start exploring into the acupuncture and moxibustion system in the context of modern science and technology. In recent years, they have gradually developed "western acupuncture and moxibustion" represented by "dry needling". As a response to the huge challenges brought by the evolution of western acupuncture and moxibustion, we published the six-volume Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion by Prof. Chen Shaozong in 2018. Containing more than 3 million Chinese characters, this book features richer content and a further improved theoretical system. A few foreign universities have expressed their hope to have a compact edition of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion in Chinese and English languages based on the original edition so that they can use it as a textbook in teaching. This is how this Theory and Clinical Practice of Modern Acupuncture and Moxibustion (in Chinese and English) comes into being. It is believed that the publication of this book not only benefits the international exchange and communication on acupuncture and moxibustion, but also produces positive impact on the orientation of the discipline.

      The Anatomy of Time – Self-Management for Doctors

      A Guide to Effectively Prepare Time Slots

      by Alexander Ghanem

      Doctors fnd themselves caught be­tween the growing demands of having to learn more and more plus physical and mental stress, and the needs of a fulfll­ing private life. Previously, there was no self­help guide focused on how to effec­tively improve the well­being of physi­cians (and patients). Doctors fnd themselves caught be­tween the growing demands of having to learn more and more plus physical and mental stress, and the needs of a fulfll­ing private life. Previously, there was no self­help guide focused on how to effec­tively improve the well­being of physi­cians (and patients). Over the course of their careers, physi­cians often lose momentum, become exhausted and subsequently lack meaning in their life. This can even cul­minate in burnout. To prevent this, it is important to continually refocus, adapt­ing your goals to circumstances. With this in mind, time management for phy­sicians becomes more than just normal planning.

      Talking about Health and Illness in Simple Terms

      Medical Information Sheets in Plain Language

      by Tanja Sappok, Reinhard Burtscher, Anja Grimmer

      People with intellectual disabilities are signifcantly more likely to suffer from mental and physical disorders than the general population. For this very rea­son, good health­promoting and medi­cal care is especially important. Com­munication diffculties with patients and specialist staff make the neces­sary examinations and treatments more diffcult and can result in critical situations that are avoidable. If pa­tients can be provided with explana­tions that are in line with their capabili­ties, then the level of anxiety and stress is reduced for all concerned. The treat­ment success rate increases. This large­format book includes materi­als that explain about illnesses, exami­nation and treatment methods in lan­guage that is easy to understand. The materials can help medical, treatment and educational personnel with their everyday work. They promote dialogue with relatives and people with learning diffculties, contribute to informed deci­sion­making and strengthen patient rights.

      In the Dementia Maze

      A Graphic Novel

      by Albin Zauner

      Is it possible to tell in drawings how people with dementia experience, cope with, or fail in their everyday lives? The art therapist Albin Zauner has accom­plished this feat. The picture story comprises 84 drawings and is one of the frst graphic novels on the subject of dementia. The focus is not on the medical­pathologizing view of the dis­ease pattern or course, but on the pro­tagonist’s inner world of experience. The existential effects, the loss of spa­tial and temporal orientation, the memo­ry lapses and the breakdown of speech, permeate the old man’s world of experi­ence in symbolic image sequences.

      by Michael Bossle / Horst Kunhardt

      The shortage of skilled nursing staff is glaring. Staffing needs will increase strongly due to retirements over the next ten years. To improve the situation, professional associations are calling for better working and general conditions, adequate staffing and remuneration, greater investment in training and professional development, and more decision-making powers for nursing professionals in the healthcare system. Recruiting and integrating foreign nursing professionals is an important element in reducing the shortage of skilled workers.

      Fasciolosis

      by John Pius Dalton

      Fasciolosis is a major global infection of livestock causing both huge losses to the agricultural community and affecting human health as a food-borne disease. Fully updated throughout, this new edition continues to cover the life cycle, biology, and development of the parasite; clinical pathology, immunology, diagnosis and vaccine development; and emergence, cause and mechanisms of drug resistance. It reviews the temperate liver fluke Fasciola hepatica, together with molecular, biochemical, control, and epidemiologial aspects of the tropical liver fluke F. gigantica. Many fundamental advances have taken place in the last two decades, but of particular importance has been the mapping of the draft genome of Fasciola. In addition, comprehensive advances in transcriptomics, proteomics and glycomics have been made, and the book therefore pays particular attention to these developments with the addition of brand-new chapters. Also covering the impact these parasites have had on the global human population, their distribution and their ecology, this book provides a comprehensive and accessible resource for scientists, researchers and students of medical and veterinary parasitology.

      Insects as Animal Feed

      Novel Ingredients for Use in Pet, Aquaculture and Livestock Diets

      by Heidi Hall, Elaine Fitches, Rhonda Smith

      The global drive towards sustainability and improved animal health means there is a greater need for development of novel functional ingredients for the feed industry. As the requirements for protein for livestock feed and human consumption grows, the use of insect products as animal feed has gained increasing attention. Covering global production systems of insect protein, oil and chitin, as well as co-products from this industry, this book: - Considers in-depth nutritional and safety aspects of insects for feed. - Reviews suitability of insects as feed for different animal species and life stages. - Examines current knowledge of the value of insect-rearing residues as biofertilizers for crop health. - Identifies the challenges related to regulation, legislation, consumer perception and acceptance, and commercialization of insects. - Provides interviews with established and early-stage innovative companies producing insect protein for feed. Including a focus on practices such as waste valorization, this book takes a holistic look at how insects could contribute to the sustainability of livestock production on a global scale. Providing an up-to-date reference for research scientists, nutritionists, and veterinarians, as well as prospective insect farmers, it will also be of interest to those with a broader curiosity towards climate change, sustainability, and the circular economy.
