Psychological Assessment and Interventions for Individuals Linked to Radicalization and Lone Wolf Terrorism
In recent times, the phenomenon of lone wolf terrorism has been observed with the social assumption that a radicalized individual is only guided by personal, social, and ethnic reasons to commit an extremist act. Nevertheless, there is still much to understand about this phenomenon and improve the methods of investigation or psychiatric interventions. This handbook attempts to cover gaps in understanding the psychiatric aspects of radicalization and the phenomenon of lone-wolf terrorism. Edited by expert clinical psychologists, the contributors have taken both a qualitative and theoretical route to analyze the phenomenon, prompted by their clinical experience with mental health professionals...
The Shoemaker's Wife
‘Trigiani is a master of palpable and visual detail’ Washington Post A sweeping epic of risk and destiny, of family, and of the power of love to change lives forever At the turn of the last century, Ciro, a young dreamer raised in a convent orphanage, and Enza, a practical girl born into poverty, meet as teenagers in the Italian Alps. Stumbling onto a scandal, Ciro is sent to hide in America and work as apprentice in Little Italy. Enza is bereft, but her life too is about to change. Unbeknownst to one another, Ciro is later a shoemaker and Enza is working in a factory in nearby Hoboken when fate reunites them. But it is already too late: Ciro has volunteered to serve in the war, and Enza...
The Indoctrinated Brain
Global War on the Human Brain Throughout the world, mental capacity is declining, especially among young people, while depression rates are rising dramatically. Meanwhile, one in forty men and women suffers from Alzheimer's, and the age of onset is falling rapidly. But the causes are not being eliminated, quite the opposite. Can this just be coincidence? The Indoctrinated Brain introduces a largely unknown, powerful neurobiological mechanism whose externally induced dysfunction underlies these catastrophic developments. Michael Nehls, medical doctor and internationally renowned molecular geneticist, lays out a shattering chain of circumstantial evidence indicating that behind these numerous ...
New Insights into Social Isolation and Loneliness
Social isolation is generally recognized as a major public health problem and is widely recognized to have detrimental consequences for people's health, including reduced mental health, increased risk of disease (e.g., hypertension, cardiovascular disease, cancer), mortality, and cognitive decline. It is widely recognized that social isolation is a major cause of death. Combined with the recent COVID-19 and other changes in social conditions, social isolation, and loneliness are becoming an increasing concern. Social isolation can occur regardless of gender or age, and the occurrence process and related factors warrant further investigation.
Promoting Healthy Aging Across the Lifespan
Worldwide there is a generalized trend toward aged societies. Between 2015 and 2050, the proportion of the world's population over 60 years will nearly double from 12% to 22%. As life expectancy continues to increase and natality rates lower, not only the composition of countries will change, but also its health landscape. However, an increased life expectancy does not necessarily mean a healthy life. In most high-income countries more than 20% of those years are lived in ill health due to chronic conditions caused by non-communicable diseases, which compromises functional ability and well-being - key components of healthy aging. In this way, not only people's lives but also societal structu...

Health Promotion in Schools, Universities, Workplaces, and Communities
Health education, well-being improvement, and advocacy are effective health promotion strategies among cutting-edge Public Health practices. Salutogenic perspectives, rooted in ecological models, have taken their rightful place to empower individuals and communities to change their life ecosystems and preserve and improve their health. It is imperative to shift from targeting protective or risk factors, which have linear causal relationships with health conditions and/or comorbidities, and encompass a systemic understanding of the role of health determinants in creating health. Individual, collective, and structural ecological approaches can better reduce health inequities. Moreover, engagin...
