Este livro trata sobre empatia, compaixão e o desejo de contribuir de forma competente e ética com aquilo que nós, psicólogos, fomos formados para atuar: em prol das necessidades do próximo e conforme aquilo que juramos. Este livro é um apanhado teórico e prático de colegas de profissão que se transformaram pessoal e profissionalmente a partir de vivências caóticas, e que puderam ampliar suas lentes de contato e perceber a importância do suporte entre si, da construção de confiança mútua, da riqueza de trocas pessoais e profissionais em virtude do trabalho em equipe, do coração aberto, disposto e acessível em prol do outro, e da capacidade de resiliência para sustentar te...
O ser humano é um ser relacional e se desenvolve no contexto de interações. Sua participação em grupos possibilita a formação de laços intensos, contínuos e recíprocos, gerando benefícios à saúde mental. Uma vez que a necessidade de estabelecer relações parece atribuir significados à existência humana e oportunizar a cada indivíduo (re)conhecer-se como ser no mundo, entende-se a importância de produzir conhecimento sobre grupos e suas contribuições para ações terapêuticas com foco no luto. O presente estudo, portanto, assenta-se em três diferentes momentos: 1) estudo exploratório da literatura acerca da contextualização histórica de grupos; 2) considerações sob...
Reflexões sobre luto é uma coletânea elaborada por psicólogas que desenvolvem pesquisas sobre o luto no Laboratório de Estudo e Intervenções sobre o Luto (LELu) da PUC-SP, e práticas clínicas com enlutados em diversos contextos de trabalho. As reflexões apresentadas ao longo dos capítulos levam em conta o olhar individual e social para o luto, a importância dos relacionamentos sociais e de apoio para expressão e validação do sofrimento do luto, além dos impactos psicológicos, físicos e sociais do rompimento de um vínculo significativo. Neste livro estão presentes definições sobre luto e suas implicações para compreender os diferentes tipos de perda, como aquelas advin...
The two-volume set LNCS 10484 and 10485 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing, ICIAP 2017, held in Catania, Italy, in September 2017. The 138 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 229 submissions. The papers cover both classic and the most recent trends in image processing, computer vision, and pattern recognition, addressing both theoretical and applicative aspects. They are organized in the following topical sections: video analysis and understanding; pattern recognition and machine learning; multiview geometry and 3D computer vision; image analysis, detection and recognition; multimedia; biomedical and assistive technology; information forensics and security; imaging for cultural heritage and archaeology; and imaging solutions for improving the quality of life.
Every day, teachers and other school staff have to deal with children who present challenging behaviour during their learning process at school. This book combines the fundamental principles of attachment theory with teacher-based examples, and practical 'how-to' interventions.
The first book dedicated to the potential applications and unique properties of bacterial cellulose (BC), this seminal work covers the basic science, technology, and economic impact of this bulk chemical as well as the companies and patents that are driving the field. It reviews the biosynthesis and properties of BC, including genetics and characterization; discusses the advancing technology as it relates to product development, bioreactors, and production; and analyzes the economic impact of BC on a diverse range of industry applications, including materials and biomaterials, biological and polymer sciences, and electromechanical engineering.
This book introduces the synthesis, electrochemical and photochemical properties, and device applications of metallo-supramolecular polymers, new kinds of polymers synthesized by the complexation of metal ions and organic ditopic ligands. Their electrochemical and photochemical properties are also interesting and much different from conventional organic polymers. The properties come from the electronic intra-chain interaction between the metal ions and the ligands in the polymer chain. In this book, for example, the electrochromism that the Fe(II)-based metallo-supramolecular polymer exhibits is described: the blue color of the polymer film disappears by the electrochemical oxidation of Fe(II) ions to Fe(III) and the colorless film becomes blue again by the electrochemical reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II). The electrochromism is explained by the disappearance/appearance of the metal-to-ligand charge transfer absorption. The electrochromic properties are applicable to display devices such as electronic paper and smart windows.
"Eyeopening... Fascinating... may presage a paradigm shift in medicine.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Teeming with information and big ideas... Outstanding.” —Booklist (starred review) The origin of asthma, autism, Alzheimer's, allergies, cancer, heart disease, obesity, and even some kinds of depression is now clear. Award-winning researcher on the microbiome, professor Rodney Dietert presents a new paradigm in human biology that has emerged in the midst of the ongoing global epidemic of noncommunicable diseases. The Human Superorganism makes a sweeping, paradigm-shifting argument. It demolishes two fundamental beliefs that have blinkered all medical thinking until very recently...
Collaboration among industry, universities and research institutes plays a vital role in stimulating open innovation, which in turn leads to new products, processes, services and business models. This book brings together a number of real-life examples of how to govern and manage open innovation collaboration projects more effectively, and provides timely insights that project consortia, governance boards and funding agencies can directly apply to implement and monitor projects and achieve greater impacts. All papers were written by recognized leading authorities with extensive experience in governance and management, and reveal how to capitalize on the potential of open innovation. This book shares multidisciplinary research perspectives on the potential benefits and challenges of collaboration, project management, and open innovation, as well as the management of complex organizational cultures and governance models.
