        Agoraphobia and Panic Disorder

        by Silvia Schneider/Jürgen Margraf

        Agoraphobia and panic disorder are among the most frequent mental disorders and without adequate professional help the quality of life of those who are affected and their family members can suffer greatly. In recent years, significant progress has been made in the understanding and treatment of the two disorders, so today, despite their severity, extremely successful treatment is available, which is presented in this volume.   Apart from an introduction and detailed description of the disorders as well as etiological models, this title provides concrete treatment information for practitioners.   Case studies guide the reader through the different phases of therapy from diagnostics to relapse prevention. Information on dealing with difficult situations as well as numerous examples of the specific procedure for the individual therapy steps makes this book a valuable resource in treating patients suffering from agoraphobia and panic disorder.   Target Group: psychotherapists, specialists for psychiatry and psychotherapy, specialists for psychosomatic medicine, clinical psychologists, coaches, students and teachers of psychology

        Character Strength Interventions

        A Field Guide for Practitioners

        by Ryan M. Niemiec

        This unique guide brings together the vast experience of the author with the science and the practice of positive psychology in such a way that both new and experienced practitioners will benefit. New practitioners will learn about the core concepts of character and signature strengths and how to fine-tune their approach and troubleshoot. Experienced practitioners will deepen their knowledge about advanced topics such as strengths overuse and collisions, hot button issues, morality, and integrating strengths with savoring, flow, and mindfulness. Hands-on practitioner tips throughout the book provide valuable hints on how to take a truly strengths-based approach. The 24 summary sheets spotlighting each of the universal character strengths are an indispensable resource for client sessions, succinctly summarizing the core features of and research on each strength. 70 evidence-based step-by-step activity handouts can be given to clients to help them develop character strengths awareness and use, increase resilience, set and meet goals, develop positive relationships, and find meaning and engagement in their daily lives.   Working with client’s (and our own) character strengths boosts well-being, fosters resilience, improves relationships, and creates strong, supportive cultures in our practices, classrooms, and organizations.   Target Group: psychotherapists / clinical psychologists / counselors/ teachers

        Functional Behavior Analysis: Assessment & Intervention Plan

        A comprehensive guide designed to tackle challenging behaviors in children through a detailed exploration of three critical sections: Building Connections, Assessment in Four Steps, and Behavior Intervention Plan.

        by Tara Warwick, OTD, MS, OTR/L

        Functional Behavior Analysis Age Group: 3 years and over Functional Behavior Analysis is a groundbreaking book by Tara Warwick, an occupational therapist with over 20 years of experience working with children facing developmental disabilities and challenging behaviors. The book is structured into three key sections: Building Connections – Emphasizing the importance of developing strong, empathetic relationships with children to enhance their behavior and social interactions. Assessment in Four Steps – A step-by-step guide to conducting a Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA) to understand the root causes of challenging behaviors through systematic data collection and analysis. Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) – Detailed instructions on designing and implementing a behavior intervention plan that focuses on teaching new, positive replacement behaviors rather than just eliminating negative behaviors. Notable Insights: Early behavioral issues can predict future challenges, making early intervention crucial. Behavior is a form of communication, and understanding the underlying needs of children is essential. Strategies for fostering better relationships, leading to improved behavior. The importance of co-regulation in teaching self-regulation skills. Practical Strategies Offered: Identifying and teaching replacement skills based on the function of behavior. Implementation of antecedent interventions to prevent challenging behaviors. Reinforcement techniques to encourage positive behaviors while reducing undesirable ones. Developing a crisis intervention plan to manage behaviors effectively. A Must-Have Resource Functional Behavior Analysis is an essential tool for educators, parents, and therapists working with children who exhibit behavioral challenges. Warwick’s evidence-based and heart-centered approach ensures practical intervention strategies that promote positive development and inclusive environments for all children.

        Bacterial Pili

        Structure, Synthesis and Role in Disease

        by Edited by Michele A Barocchi, John L Telford

        Bacterial pili play important roles as environmental sensors, in host colonization and in biofilm formation, enabling bacteria to interact with the environment, with surfaces and with other bacteria and host cells. Most bacteria, both Gram positive and Gram negative, and almost all bacterial pathogens, are piliated. This book discusses the synthesis, structure, evolution, function and role in pathogenesis of these complex structures, and their basis for vaccine development and therapeutics for Streptococcus pathogens. It is an invaluable resource for researchers and students of medical microbiology.

        Sexually Transmitted Infections and AIDS in the Tropics

        by Edited by Om P Arya, Charles A Hart

        Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) are a major public health problem both in their own right and because of their link with HIV infection. This has elevated their control to an absolute priority throughout the world. In developing countries, which account for approximately 75% of the easily curable STI, as estimated by the WHO, and where sexually transmitted HIV infection has reached epidemic proportions, the need is most acute. Here AIDS is claiming hundreds of thousands of lives and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. In addition, because of inadequate resources, the sequelae of STI (e.g. infertility and some cancers) contribute greatly to ill-health in the tropics. This book written by acknowledged experts working or with experience in tropical countries, gives clear, concise and up to date knowledge and understanding on all aspects of Sexually Transmitted Infections. It should be useful for all those involved in the appropriate management and control of STI in various settings, ranging from peripheral and rural and urban health care centres to large hospitals. It will also be invaluable for students of tropical medicine, medical microbiology and genito-urinary medicine.
