Psychological Care for Cancer Patients
Psychological Care for Cancer Patients: New Perspectives on Training Health Professionals is an innovative work in psychosocial oncology which examines the role of creative expression in the psychological treatment of cancer patients. After having spent five decades in this field, Domenico Arturo Nesci has become a proponent of treatment that values patients as creatives and valiant fighters rather than objects of an ambivalent compassion. This book analyzes this intersection of psychology, the humanities, medicine, and social work through scholarship conceived to help all people whose lives are crossed by cancer: patients, relatives, caregivers, health professionals, and students.

A pattern of collective suicide is finally identified, making it possible to foresee and try to prevent its tragic repetition. At the same time, through an artistic editorial work on original images from the Peoples Temple files, a sort of Multimedia Psychotherapy is subliminally delivered in order to help the mourning of the victims of Jonestown, to whose memory the book is dedicated.
Extraordinary Politics
Political protest and social movementstheir history; their cyclical development; their organization, strategies, and tacticsconstitute what Charles Euchner calls extraordinary politics, an antidote to the breakdown of politics-as-usual and a necessary, if not sufficient, condition of democracy. Activists have set the pace on every conceivable issue, including the environment, gay rights, feminism, abortion, states rights, religion, and multiculturalism. The president and Congress can barely keep up, but extraordinary politics keeps evolving. With style and grace, the author weaves together hundreds of examples drawn from movements spanning the ideological spectrum to offer both a practical a...
