Download or read book Il coraggio di restare written by Federica Paccaferri and published by Edizioni Nisroch. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Ho conosciuto Federica Paccaferri in tribunale, a Macerata, nella cittadina che il 29 gennaio del 2018 è stata teatro di uno dei delitti più efferati del nostro tempo: l’omicidio, il depezzamento, il vilipendio e l’occultamento del cadavere dell’allora diciottenne romana Pamela Mastropietro, ad opera del pusher Innocent Oseghale. Sono stata consulente di parte della famiglia della vittima e, benché sia alquanto avvezza a casi efferati, di fronte a quello di Macerata, per ovvi motivi, ero obiettivamente attonita. Quando ho visto l’interprete, nella persona di Federica, sedere accanto all’imputato, a pochissimi centimetri da lui, anzi, praticamente attaccata a lui, per rendere possibile lo svolgimento della traduzione, ho provato una sorta di tenerezza. Da questa esperienza nasce il racconto di tutte le emozioni che hanno abitato la mente dell’interprete per la durata del processo, che Federica, a mio avviso, descrive in maniera esemplare. Per questo il ruolo in assoluto più controverso credo l’abbia avuto proprio lei, per non parlare dell’aggravante del lutto (con la morte del padre) che l’ha colpita all’indomani dell’accettazione dell’incarico. Ciò che ha fatto di Federica una donna intraprendente è stata la perseveranza nel procedere in un momento della sua vita in cui forse avrebbe volentieri abbandonato la sedia accanto all’imputato, per lasciare il posto al silenzio e al raccoglimento. È un libro appassionato, accorato, un vero appello al coraggio e alla forza di non mollare mai, nemmeno di fronte alle sfide più insormontabili. Un libro pieno di speranza, di amore, quell’amore indescrivibile per un padre tramutato nel coraggio di fronteggiare qualsiasi avversità. Un invito a non fuggire il dolore anche quando questo sembra letteralmente lacerare. Un inno alla vita, alla passione e all’umanità, malgrado tutto.” Roberta Bruzzone (Criminologa)

Download or read book Mental Health Evaluations in Immigration Court written by Virginia Barber-Rioja and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2022-08-16 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PROSE Award- Psychology Finalist A timely and important contribution to the study of immigration court from a psychological perspective Every day, large numbers of immigrants undertake dangerous migration journeys only to face deportation or “removal” proceedings once they arrive in the U.S. Others who have been in the country for many years may face these proceedings as well, and either group may seek to gain lawful status by means of an application to USCIS, the benefits arm of the immigration system. Mental Health Evaluations in Immigration Court examines the growing role of mental health professionals in the immigration system as they conduct forensic mental health assessments that are used as psychological evidence for applications for deportation relief, write affidavits for the court about the course of treatment they have provided to immigrants, help prepare people emotionally to be deported, and provide support for immigrants in detention centers. Many immigrants appear in immigration court—often without an attorney if they cannot afford one—as part of deportation proceedings. Mental health professionals can be deeply involved in these proceedings, from helping to buttress an immigrant’s plea for asylum to helping an immigration judge make decisions about hardship, competency or risks for violence. There are a whole host of psycho-legal and forensic issues that arise in immigration court and in other immigration applications that have not yet been fully addressed in the field. This book provides an overview of relevant issues likely to be addressed by mental health and legal professionals. Mental Health Evaluations in Immigration Court corrects a serious deficiency in the study of immigration law and mental health, offering suggestions for future scholarship and acting as a vital resource for mental health professionals, immigration lawyers, and judges.
Download or read book Men on Strike written by Helen Smith and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2014-12-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American society has become anti-male. Men are sensing the backlash and are consciously and unconsciously going “on strike.” They are dropping out of college, leaving the workforce and avoiding marriage and fatherhood at alarming rates. The trend is so pronounced that a number of books have been written about this “man-child” phenomenon, concluding that men have taken a vacation from responsibility simply because they can. But why should men participate in a system that seems to be increasingly stacked against them? As Men on Strike demonstrates, men aren’t dropping out because they are stuck in arrested development. They are instead acting rationally in response to the lack of incentives society offers them to be responsible fathers, husbands and providers. In addition, men are going on strike, either consciously or unconsciously, because they do not want to be injured by the myriad of laws, attitudes and hostility against them for the crime of happening to be male in the twenty-first century. Men are starting to fight back against the backlash. Men on Strike explains their battle cry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You've met a new man who seems too good to be true. He's charming, confident and impulsive. He shares so much in common with you and you seem to be the perfect match. But things aren't quite as they seem; you soon realise his charm doesn't run deep, he gets bored easily, he's irresponsible and he has a string of exes and one night stands in his wake, he thinks a lot of himself but little of others. Or perhaps your boss takes too many big risks and treats you like a pawn in their game or your friend is always asking favours of you. The psychopath in your life is probably in disguise - they could be your lover, your child, your colleague, your friend or the hot new date you've met on the internet. So how do you know if someone close to hand isn't quite who they seem? For fans of Jon Ronson's The Psychopath Test, in The Psychopath in Your Life, forensic psychologist Kerry Daynes explains the psyche of a psychopath, she reveals the behavioural traits they share in common and she gives advice on how to handle them - or better still, how to avoid them at all costs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing all aspects of brain death and thoroughly detailing how a potential organ donor should be maintained to ensure maximum use of the organs and cells, The Brain-Dead Organ Donor: Pathophysiology and Management is a landmark addition to the literature. This first-of-its-kind, multidisciplinary volume will be of interest to a large section of the medical community. The first section of the book reviews the historical, medical, legal, and ethical aspects of brain death. That is followed by two chapters on the pathophysiology of brain death as investigated in small and large animal models. This includes a review of the many hormonal changes, including the neuroendocrine- adrenergic ‘storm’, that takes place during and following the induction of brain death, and how they impact metabolism. The next section of the book reviews various effects of brain death, namely its impact on thyroid function, the inflammatory response that develops, and those relating to innate immunity. The chapters relating to assessment and management of potential organ donors will be of interest to a very large group of transplant surgeons and physicians as well as critical care and neurocritical care physicians and nurses. Neurologists, endocrinologists, neurosurgeons, and pathologists will also be interested, especially in the more basic science sections on various aspects of brain-death and hormonal therapy. Organ procurement organizations and transplant coordinators worldwide will also be interested in this title. Other chapters will be of interest to medical historians, medico-legal experts, and ethicists.
