Download or read book Controversies in Contemporary Religion written by Paul Hedges and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 1041 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious or spiritual beliefs underpin many controversies and conflicts in the contemporary world. Written by a range of scholarly contributors, this three-volume set provides contextual background information and detailed explanations of religious controversies across the globe. Controversies in Contemporary Religion: Education, Law, Politics, Society, and Spirituality is a three-volume set that addresses a wide variety of current religious issues, analyzing religion's role in the rise of fundamentalism, censorship, human rights, environmentalism and sustainability, sexuality, bioethics, and other questions of widespread interest. Providing in-depth context and analysis far beyond what's available in the news or online, this work will enable readers to understand the nature of and reasons for controversies in current headlines. The first volume covers theoretical and academic debates, the second looks at debates in the public square and ethical issues, while the third examines specific issues and case studies. These volumes bring detailed and careful debate of a range of controversies together in one place, including topics not often covered—for example, how religions promote or hinder social cohesion and peace, the relationship of religions to human rights, and the intersection of Buddhism and violence. Written by a range of experts that includes both established and emerging scholars, the text explains key debates in ways that are accessible and easy to understand for lay readers as well as undergraduate students researching particular issues or global religious trends.
Download or read book Las almas heridas written by Boris Cyrulnik and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-11-15 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las almas heridas es un libro sobre las huellas de la infancia, la necesidad del relato y los mecanismos de la memoria, elementos desarrollados a partir de la narración de sus vivencias personales hasta su adolescencia. Boris Cyrulnik, un joven cuyas inquietudes intelectuales ya se encaminan por las lindes de la psiquiatría, y que realiza sus primeras prácticas en un asilo para enfermos mentales (donde quedará en shock tras comprobar el aislamiento y las malas prácticas a las que son sometidos los pacientes: lobotomías, camisas de fuerza, etc.). Su nueva obra Les ames blessées (Las almas heridas) no es ni una autobiografía ni un libro de historia de la psiquiatría: se trata de un testimonio personal sobre el nacimiento de una disciplina difícil y apasionante que denominamos psiquiatría.
Download or read book Salud ele Mental written by Fernando Ulloa and published by Libros del Zorzal. This book was released on 2020 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este vagar del pensamiento […] por caminos sin metas es semejante al pensar pensando, donde cada tanto nos sorprende un descubrimiento con valor de meta. En cuanto a las metas sin caminos, entiendo que se corresponden con hacer pasar los resultados de ese pensar distraído por el trazado que reconoce los rigores de la escritura. Algo así como trazar caminos para esas metas descubiertas en la distracción […]. Esta soltura me ayuda y me reconcilia con el escribir en este momento”. Salud ele-Mental. Con toda la mar detrás recorre, por momentos “hablando al azar de la memoria y sus vicisitudes”, conceptos clave de la psicología social como la Numerosidad Social, entre otros, al tiempo que propone una reconceptualización de la salud mental, desde (mejor dicho, con) la propia voz de su autor. Fernando Ulloa nos dejó en estas páginas no sólo parte de su vasta experiencia como “operador en la producción de salud mental”, sino también muchas de sus percepciones sobre temas que trascienden el campo de la psicología, del cual es considerado nada menos que uno de sus precursores en nuestro país.

Download or read book Decolonizing Global Mental Health written by China Mills and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-11 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decolonizing Global Mental Health is a book that maps a strange irony. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Movement for Global Mental Health are calling to ‘scale up’ access to psychological and psychiatric treatments globally, particularly within the global South. Simultaneously, in the global North, psychiatry and its often chemical treatments are coming under increased criticism (from both those who take the medication and those in the position to prescribe it). The book argues that it is imperative to explore what counts as evidence within Global Mental Health, and seeks to de-familiarize current ‘Western’ conceptions of psychology and psychiatry using postcolonial theory. It leads us to wonder whether we should call for equality in global access to psychiatry, whether everyone should have the right to a psychotropic citizenship and whether mental health can, or should, be global. As such, it is ideal reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as researchers in the fields of critical psychology and psychiatry, social and health psychology, cultural studies, public health and social work.
Download or read book Psychopathology in Women written by Margarita Sáenz-Herrero and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 868 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines sex and gender differences in the causes and expression of medical conditions, including mental health disorders. Sex differences are variations attributable to individual reproductive organs and the XX or XY chromosomal complement. Gender differences are variations that result from biological sex as well as individual self-representation which include psychological, behavioural, and social consequences of an individual’s perceived gender. Gender is still a neglected field in psychopathology, and gender differences is often incorrectly used as a synonym of sex differences. A reconsideration of the definition of gender, as the term that subsumes masculinity and femininity, could shed some light on this misperception and could have an effect in the study of health and disease. This second edition of Psychopathology clarifies the anthropological, cultural and social aspects of gender and their impact on mental health disorders. It focuses on gender perspective as a paradigm not only in psychopathology but also in mental health disorders. As such it promotes open mindedness in the definition and perception of symptoms, as well as assumptions about those symptoms, and raises awareness of mental health.

Download or read book Psychoanalysis in the Barrios written by Patricia Gherovici and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychoanalysis in the Barrios: Race, Class, and the Unconscious demonstrates that psychoanalytic principles can be applied successfully in disenfranchised Latino populations, refuting the misguided idea that psychoanalysis is an expensive luxury only for the wealthy. As opposed to most Latin American countries, where psychoanalysis is seen as a practice tied to the promotion of social justice, in the United States psychoanalysis has been viewed as reserved for the well-to-do, assuming that poor people lack the "sophistication" that psychoanalysis requires, thus heeding invisible but no less rigid class boundaries. Challenging such discrimination, the authors testify to the efficacy of psychoanalysis in the barrios, upending the unfounded widespread belief that poor people are so consumed with the pressures of everyday survival that they only benefit from symptom-focused interventions. Sharing vivid vignettes of psychoanalytic treatments, this collection sheds light on the psychological complexities of life in the barrio that is often marked by poverty, migration, marginalization, and barriers of language, class, and race. This interdisciplinary collection features essays by distinguished international scholars and clinicians. It represents a unique crossover that will appeal to readers in clinical practice, social work, counselling, anthropology, psychology, cultural and Latino studies, queer studies, urban studies, and sociology.
Download or read book The Elementary Particles written by Michel Houellebecq and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2001-11-13 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international literary phenomenon, The Elementary Particles is a frighteningly original novel–part Marguerite Duras and part Bret Easton Ellis-that leaps headlong into the malaise of contemporary existence. Bruno and Michel are half-brothers abandoned by their mother, an unabashed devotee of the drugged-out free-love world of the sixties. Bruno, the older, has become a raucously promiscuous hedonist himself, while Michel is an emotionally dead molecular biologist wholly immersed in the solitude of his work. Each is ultimately offered a final chance at genuine love, and what unfolds is a brilliantly caustic and unpredictable tale. Translated from the French by Frank Wynne.
