Culture as Process
Jaan Valsiner has made numerous contributions to the development of psychology over the last 40 years. He is internationally recognized as a leader and innovator within both developmental psychology and cultural psychology, and has received numerous prizes for his work: the Alexander von Humboldt prize, the Hans Killian prize, and the Outstanding International Psychologist Award from the American Psychological Association. Having taught at Universities in Europe, Asia and north and south America, he is currently Niels Bohr professor at Aalborg University, Denmark.

The book provides an overview, evaluation and extension of Valsiner’s key ideas for the construction of a dynamic cultural psychology, written by his former students and colleagues from around the world.
Research, Teaching and Actions in Higher Education on the UN Sustainable Development Goals
The UN is currently focused on monitoring and improving learning outcomes and people who are generally excluded from education. Indeed, in its Agenda 2030, higher education forms an important part of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to poverty, hunger, health, education and gender equality.

Integrating Experiences
Cultural Psychology studies how persons and social-cultural worlds mutually constitute one another. It is premised on the idea that culture is within us—in every moment in which we live our human lives, in the meaningful worlds we have created ourselves.

With the increase of globalization and multicultural exchanges, cultural psychology becomes the psychological science for the 21st century. No longer can we ignore questions about how our cultural traditions, practices, beliefs, artifacts and other people constitute how we approach, understand, imagine and remember the world.

¿Cómo enseñar a enseñar lenguaje?
"Este libro se centra en la enseñanza del lenguaje en la formación inicial de educadoras y educadores de párvulos. Se trata de una problemática que se inscribe en el desafío más amplio de mejorar la calidad de la formación inicial docente tanto en nuestro país como en Latinoamérica. Fruto de la colaboración entre instituciones formadoras, se proponen contenidos y metodologías para enseñar a implementar en el aula prácticas que la evidencia ha reconocido como esenciales para el desarrollo del lenguaje y la alfabetización inicial. Una cuestión clave es que estas prácticas exigen una adaptación reflexiva a la luz de conocimientos disciplinarios y pedagógicos-disciplinarios sobre niños y niñas y sobre cada contexto, un tipo de razonamiento docente que debe desarrollarse en el marco de la formación inicial. En suma, este libro invita a la comunidad nacional y regional a involucrarse en la formación inicial basada en la práctica y enfocada en la puesta en acto reflexiva de prácticas esenciales que pueden tener efectos duraderos sobre las próximas generaciones."

El conocimiento científico se está viendo cada vez más enriquecido gracias a los numerosos estudios e investigaciones que relacionan psicología y salud, no sólo en lo que respecta a la psicología de salud como rama de la psicología que analiza conductas y estilos de vida que pueden afectar a la salud física y mental, sino también por las concomitancias que se dan en los desarrollos de las psicoterapias y en la práctica de la medicina en general.
