Clinical Topics in Old Age Psychiatry
An overview of important current subjects in old age psychiatry, demonstrating the depth and breadth of the speciality.
The Image and the Figure
The image of Our Lady of Czestochowa is the most famous and the most venerated holy image in Poland. In contemporary Poland the image is a kind of a cultural icon, instantly recognizable and connected with popular symbolic and mythological meanings. Presented in this book is an analysis of beliefs, narratives (great and small stories), myths, and rituals. This analysis reveals that for its devotees the image is not merely a material object and a picture--it is perceived, lived, and experienced as a real person--figure of Mary--Queen and Mother.

Nonsuicidal Self-Injury
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a baffling, troubling, and hard to treat phenomenon that has increased markedly in recent years. Key issues in diagnosing and treating NSSI adequately include differentiating it from attempted suicide and other mental disorders, as well as understanding the motivations for self-injury and the context in which it occurs. This accessible and practical book provides therapists and students with a clear understanding of these key issues, as well as of suitable assessment techniques. It then goes on to delineate research-informed treatment approaches for NSSI, with an emphasis on functional assessment, emotion regulation, and problem solving, including motivational interviewing, interpersonal skills, CBT, DBT, behavioral management strategies, delay behaviors, exercise, family therapy, risk management, and medication, as well as how to successfully combine methods.
