One of the few books on the topic, this updated edition offers alternatives to disease models of addiction by exploring personal pathways to recovery. Focusing on alcohol and drug problems, it provides a literature review of 40 years of studies on self-change with particular emphasis on the current decade and methodological issues (starting with how much or how little treatment constitutes "treatment"). The 24 experts keep the coverage consistently readable, and dozens of brief narratives from individuals who have successfully recovered from an addictive behavior without formal help lend valuable personal perspectives.
This second tome of the present volume is dedicated to Kierkegaard's main theological influences. In theology as well, the German and the Danish traditions had long been closely connected via their common source: Luther. In Kierkegaard's time the main influence on theology was probably German philosophy and specifically Hegelianism. Most of the German theologians were in some way in a critical dialogue with this movement. Another important influence was Schleiermacher, who visited Copenhagen in 1833 and was important for several Golden Age thinkers. From his student days Kierkegaard kept abreast of the German theological literature, from which he drew much inspiration.
This open access book constitutes the proceedings of the 28th International Conference on Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems, TACAS 2022, which was held during April 2-7, 2022, in Munich, Germany, as part of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software, ETAPS 2022. The 46 full papers and 4 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 159 submissions. The proceedings also contain 16 tool papers of the affiliated competition SV-Comp and 1 paper consisting of the competition report. TACAS is a forum for researchers, developers, and users interested in rigorously based tools and algorithms for the construction and analysis of systems. The conference aims to bridge the gaps between different communities with this common interest and to support them in their quest to improve the utility, reliability, exibility, and efficiency of tools and algorithms for building computer-controlled systems.
In the summer of 2018, the authors of the book stood in the Musée des Arts et Métiers in Paris. They marvelled at the Foucault pendulum, which made its circular movements on a long rope under the dome. Like Casaubon in Umberto Eco's book The Foucault Pendulum, the authors were amazed and wondered what could be at the ideal end of the thread pendulum. The fixed point that could give us support and security in an uncertain world and difficult times? What uncertainties, what times or even what threats are we actually talking about? Where can we find the fixed points, the safe spaces of our lives? This book deals with these and other questions. The authors found inspiration for the book in Umberto Eco. And so it is also a homage to Eco.

Nach belastenden Ereignissen, z.B. einem Verkehrsunfall, körperlicher bzw. sexueller Gewalt oder gar einer Großschadens- und Katastrophenlage, entwickelt ein Teil der Betroffenen eine akute Belastungsstörung. Allerdings werden die Betroffenen häufig nicht erkannt und ausreichend versorgt. Um die psychosoziale Notfallversorgung von Opfern, Angehörigen und Einsatzkräften zu verbessern, wurde dieses Manual entwickelt. Es stellt zunächst präventiv angelegte Versorgungskonzepte vor, die international empfohlene psychosoziale Interventionen berücksichtigen und erläutert anschließend praxisorientiert ein sieben Sitzungen umfassendes Programm zur kognitiv-behavioralen Behandlung der akute...
Das öffentliche Bewusstsein für die Sorge um Opfer, Überlebende, Angehörige, Hinterbliebene und Zeugen ist in Deutschland mit Ereignissen wie dem Flugzeugunglück in Ramstein, dem Zugunglück in Eschede und dem sog. Amoklauf in Erfurt gewachsen. Inzwischen wird es als selbstverständlich erachtet, dass nicht nur eine medizinische, sondern auch eine psychosoziale Unterstützung nach derartigen Ereignissen kurzfristig gewährleistet ist. Auch Angehörige bestimmter Berufsgruppen wie Rettungskräfte, Feuerwehr und Polizei benötigen nach bestimmten Einsätzen psychosoziale Unterstützung. Der Band bietet einen Überblick über die Auswirkungen von traumatischen Ereignissen, insbesondere nac...
This volume investigates the significant role qualitative research plays in expanding and refining our understandings of crime and justice. It features seventeen original essays that discuss the relationship between methodology and theory. The result is a theoretically engaged volume that explores the approaches of qualitative scholars in the collection and treatment of data in criminological scholarship. Among the key issues addressed in the volume are methodological rigor in qualitative research; movement between method, theory building, theoretical refinement and expansion; diversity of qualitative methodologies, from classic field research to contemporary innovations; and considerations of the future of qualitative criminological research. Qualitative research use has expanded rapidly in the last twenty years. This latest volume of Advances in Criminological Theory presents a cogent appraisal of qualitative criminology and the ways in which rigorous qualitative research contributes to theorizing about crime and justice.
