Florent, un garçon de dix ans, surprend une conversation entre ses mamans : devant l'état de la planète, elles se demandent si elles veulent avoir un deuxième enfant. À travers une série de mots impossibles à comprendre, il retient l’hésitation dans leurs voix, la peur dans leurs yeux, la main que l’une pose sur le ventre de l’autre, comme quand il n’arrive plus à s’endormir. Florent comprend qu’il y a trop d’humains sur Terre, qu’il ne faut plus faire d’enfants, qu’il aurait fallu arrêter bien avant et que lui-même est de trop.

Par Ivan Ward, Raluca Soreanu, Judit Szekacs-Weisz. 2024
This fascinating collection explores the life of renowned psychoanalyst Michael Balint in his native Budapest. With a Balint revival in…
mind, Michael Balint and his World: The Budapest Years brings together the work of psychoanalysts, social thinkers, historians, literary scholars, artists and medical doctors who draw on Balint’s work in a variety of ways. The book focuses on Balint’s early years in Budapest, where he worked with Sándor Ferenczi and a circle of colleagues, capturing the transformations of psychoanalytic thinking as it happens in a network of living relationships. Tracing creative disagreements as well as collaborations, and setting these exchanges in the climate of scientific, social and cultural developments of the time, Michael Balint and his World: The Budapest Years follows the development of psychoanalytic thinking during these critical times. The book recalls the story of several “lost children” of the Budapest School and reconstitutes Balint’s important early contributions on primary love. It also examines his little-known relationship with Lacan, including the extended discussion of Balint’s work by Wladimir Granoff in Lacan’s first public seminar in Paris in 1954, published here for the first time. This important book provides a fresh perspective on Balint’s enormous contribution to the field of psychoanalysis and will interest both scholars and clinicians. It will also inspire those interested in clinical practice and the applications of psychoanalysis to the cultural sphere.The Power of Your Senses: Why Coffee Tastes Better in a Red Cup and Other Life-Changing Science

The offender population has long been…
considered the most difficult to engage in psychotherapy, often described as resistant, non-compliant, unworkable, and without feeling. This unique and culturally diverse population tend to find themselves, as a result, going through a cycle of arrest, conviction, incarceration, and release. Although other offender populations, such as female offenders, severe mentally ill, and sex offenders, have received considerable attention in scholarship, there has been little research focused on the treatment of the general offender population and how to reduce recidivism through the appropriate delivery of effective assessment and treatment services. This book will bridge that gap in literature, addressing: ● Who the offender population is ● Social and systematic factors they face ● Psychological understandings of criminal behavior ● Rehabilitation and psychotherapy theories and approaches to treatment , as well as best practices ● Future efforts in justice initiatives, advocacy, and public policy This book is best suited for upper-level undergraduates, graduate students and researchers, and practitioners in criminal justice fields and mental health professions working with offender populations.Dit behandelprotocol beschrijft hoe kortdurende exposuretherapie kan worden toegepast bij jongeren van 12 tot 18 jaar bij wie een specifieke…
fobie is vastgesteld. Exposure wordt gezien als de gouden standaard voor angstbehandeling. Uit verschillende onderzoeken komt echter naar voren dat exposure bij de behandeling van angstklachten nog te weinig of te weinig effectief wordt ingezet. Kortdurende exposuretherapie voor jongeren met een specifieke angst geeft de therapeut meer inzicht in het belang van exposure, het biedt de nieuwste inzichten op dit gebied, en het geeft concrete handvatten om exposuretherapie zo effectief mogelijk in te zetten. Dit boek begint met een uitleg over specifieke angststoornissen, het protocol en het werkingsmechanisme van exposure. Vervolgens beschrijft het aandachtspunten en mogelijke moeilijkheden die een therapeut kan tegenkomen bij de uitvoering van exposuretherapie. Ten slotte gaat het in op de zes achtereenvolgende behandelsessies en op de twee oudersessies. Bij deze uitgave horen voorbeelden van exposureoefeningen, een vragenlijst omtrent veiligheidsgedrag en online werkbladen voor jongeren.Praktijkboek dementiezorg: Van Achterdocht tot Zwerfgedrag

Par Edward R. Morey. 2023
Neoclassical economists assume that people act to maximize their well-being: they choose based on their desires and only desire what…
they will like. Neuroscientists and psychologists disagree. Their research demonstrates that cues and evolutionary quirks cause people to act against their best interests, even choosing alternatives they will not like. In this book, Edward R. Morey contrasts neoclassical choice theory with behavioral models and findings in psychology, neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and animal behavior. The book addresses the fundamental idea within economics that behaviors are chosen, and it explains why other disciplines disagree. The chapters touch on modeling behavior, judging behavior, and policies. Morey breaks down judgment using the ethics of welfare economics, and it compares and contrasts this recognized approach with others, including Mill’s liberalism, virtue ethics, duty-based ethics, Buddhist ethics, and utilitarianism.Kortdurende schemagroepstherapie: Cognitief gedragstherapeutische technieken – Handleiding
Par Jenny Broersen, Michiel Van Vreeswijk. 2013
Schematherapie is een bewezen effectieve behandeling voor patiënten met persoonlijkheidsproblematiek. De groeiende belangstelling naar schematherapie vraagt ook om keuzes maken,…
ook omdat de ernst van de problematiek als gevolg van schema's en modi divers is. De auteurs van dit boek zijn van mening dat schematherapie zowel langdurend als kortdurend gegeven kan worden. Alleen zo kan schematherapie toegankelijk blijven voor een grote doelgroep van patiënten. De afgelopen jaren is de aandacht van schematherapie in individuele setting ook verschoven naar schemagroepstherapie, een behandelvorm die een ander soort ervaring vraagt van de behandelaar.Kortdurende schemagroepstherapie beschrijft een schema CGT-protocol voor de behandeling van mensen die als gevolg van hun schema's en modi in het leven vastlopen. Dit kan in individuele schematherapie, maar ook in schemagroepstherapie. Bij schemagroepstherapie vindt het interpersoonlijk leren niet alleen plaats in het therapeutisch contact, maar vooral ook in het contact met andere groepsleden. Het aanwezig zijn en werken in en met een groep wordt door zowel therapeuten als patiënten als een krachtige experiëntiële en vaak emotioneel corrigerende ervaring genoemd.In deze herdruk, die voorheen Schemagerichte therapie in groepen heette, worden meer voorbeelden gegeven van groepsdynamische processen en interactief leren. De schema's en modi zijn aangepast aan de laatste ontwikkelingen binnen de schematherapie. De wijze waarop het huiswerk wordt gepresenteerd is overzichtelijker. Verder is het gecombineerde schema/modusmodel nog explicieter uitgewerkt.Dit protocol bestaat uit een handleiding en een werkboek.The Vision Board: The Secret to an Extraordinary Life

Par Robert Lacey. 2012
A short biography of one of the most recognized yet still mysterious women in the world, Queen Elizabeth II, from…
the New York Times bestselling author of The KingdomElizabeth of York was not born to be Queen. She came into the world on April 21st, 1926, the equivalent of the modern Princess Beatrice, first-born daughter of the Duke of York, destined to flutter on the royal fringe. So while Lilibet was brought up with almost religious respect for the crown, there seemed no chance of her inheriting it. Her head was never turned by the personal prospect of grandeur—which is why she would prove so very good at her job. Elizabeth II’s lack of ego was to prove the paradoxical secret of her greatness.For more than thirty years acclaimed author and royal biographer Robert Lacey has been gathering material from members of the Queen’s inner circle—her friends, relatives, private secretaries, and prime ministers. Now, in The Queen, Lacey offers a life of the celebrated monarch, told in four parts that capture the distinctive flavor of passing eras, and reveal how Elizabeth II adapted—or, on occasions, regally declined to adapt—to changing times.A Complaint Is a Gift: How to Learn from Critical Feedback and Recover Customer Loyalty
Par Janelle Barlow. 2023
The third edition of this bestseller (over 275,000 copies sold) builds on the tested formula that helps organizations recognize the…
value of complaints using updated examples and concepts in the age of COVID-19. The first edition of A Complaint Is a Gift introduced the revolutionary notion that customer complaints are not annoyances to be dodged, denied, or buried but are instead valuable pieces of feedback-not to mention your best bargain in market research. Complaints provide a feedback mechanism that can help organizations rapidly and inexpensively strengthen products, service style, and market focus. Most importantly, complaints that are well received create customer loyalty.This new edition condenses the tried and true eight-step formula into a tighter, more efficient three-step formula. From her work with clients, the author has updated industry-specific complaint examples and added in new concepts, such as a process that enables employees to handle complaints with increased emotional resilience-something that is sorely needed since dealing with increasingly difficult customers is a common occurrence in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Handling complaints doesn't have to be a negative, soul-crushing experience. Janelle Barlow gives the right tools to treat each of them as a source of innovative ideas that can transform your business.Service Included: Four-Star Secrets of an Eavesdropping Waiter

Par William Stixrud, Ned Johnson. 2021
A guide to effectively communicating with teenagers by the bestselling authors of The Self-Driven ChildIf you're a parent, you've had…
a moment--maybe many of them--when you've thought, "How did that conversation go so badly?" At some point after the sixth grade, the same kid who asked "why" non-stop at age four suddenly stops talking to you. And the conversations that you wish you could have--ones fueled by your desire to see your kid not just safe and healthy, but passionately engaged--suddenly feel nearly impossible to execute. The good news is that effective communication can be cultivated, learned, and taught. And as you get better at this, so will your kids.William Stixrud, Ph.D., and Ned Johnson have 60 years combined experience talking to kids one-on-one, and the most common question they get when out speaking to parents and educators is: What do you say? While many adults understand the importance and power of the philosophies behind the books that dominate the parenting bestseller list, parents are often left wondering how to put those concepts into action. In What Do You Say?, Johnson and Stixrud show how to engage in respectful and effective dialogue, beginning with defining and demonstrating the basic principles of listening and speaking. Then they show new ways to handle specific, thorny topics of the sort that usually end in parent/kid standoffs: delivering constructive feedback to kids; discussing boundaries around technology; explaining sleep and their brains; the anxiety of current events; and family problem-solving. What Do You Say? is a manual and map that will immediately transform parents' ability to navigate complex terrain and train their minds and hearts to communicate ever more successfully.Tell Me About Yourself: Six Steps for Accurate and Artful Self-Definition
