Atopic dermatitis or atopic eczema is an extremely common skin disease characterized by red patches, dry, scaling or crusting skin, and intense itch. It frequently develops in children during the first year of life and can become severe, with a consequently major impact on health-related quality of life. This text from international experts draws t
Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis (OPD) is a form of multiaxial diagnostic and classification system based on psychodynamic principles, analogous to those based on other principles such as DSM-IV and ICD-10. The OPD is based on five axes: I = experience of illness and prerequisites for treatment, II = interpersonal relations, III = conflict, IV = structure, and V = mental and psychosomatic disorders (in line with Chapter V (F) of the ICD-10). After an initial interview lasting 1–2 hours, the clinician (or researcher) can evaluate the patient's psychodynamics according to these axes and enter them in the checklists and evaluation forms provided. The new version, OPD-2, has been developed from a purely diagnostic system to include a set of tools and procedures for treatment planning and for measuring change, as well as for determining the appropriate main focuses of treatment and developing appropriate treatment strategies.
Provides the first comprehensive analysis of the history of returning German POWs after the Second World War, explored as a history of memory both during Germany's division and after unification.
The book is a new, revisionist account of Sixties protest movements in West Germany. It challenges established narratives centring male intellectuals by foregrounding families, private lives, women, and old people. Worked from a wealth of new archival sources, the book argues that '1968' was just as much about gender conflict as it was about generational conflict--even if the former was often erased from public memory. The narrative follows three generations of Germans living in the provincial town of Bonn through the turbulent years of the late 1960s. It offers a genuine social history of the period, decentring the story of West Germany's 68 socially, geographically, and generationally. The...
Der demographische Wandel und seine gesellschaftlichen Konsequenzen haben die gerontologische Forschung in den Fokus des gegenw rtigen interdisziplin ren Wissenschaftsdiskurses ger ckt. In der Praktischen Theologie spiegelt sich diese Entwicklung bisher vor allem in berlegungen zur Seelsorge und zur Bildungsarbeit mit Seniorinnen und Senioren. Das Spannungsfeld von "best Ager" auf der einen und der wachsenden Zahl dementer Hochaltriger auf der anderen Seite besch ftigt die beiden Disziplinen. Der Band Praktische Theologie des Alterns will diese Partikularit t berwinden. In direkter Auseinandersetzung mit gerontologischen Grundsatzdiskursen sollen zentrale Aspekte des Alterns wie z.B. Leiblichkeit, Weisheit, Erinnerung, Zeitwahrnehmung, Generation, Orte und Medienwirklichkeit reflektiert werden. Des Weiteren werden im Durchgang durch die einzelnen praktisch-theologischen Disziplinen Impulse f r eine gesteigerte Deutungs- und Handlungskompetenz hinsichtlich der Wahrnehmung des Alterns entfaltet.
Hysteria, a mysterious disease known since antiquity, is said to have ceased to exist. Challenging this commonly held view, this is the first cross-disciplinary study to examine the current functional neuroimaging research into hysteria and compare it to the nineteenth-century image-based research into the same disorder. Paula Muhr's central argument is that, both in the nineteenth-century and the current neurobiological research on hysteria, images have enabled researchers to generate new medical insights. Through detailed case studies, Muhr traces how different images, from photography to functional brain scans, have reshaped the historically situated medical understanding of this disorder that defies the mind-body dualism.

Kaum eine Beziehung prägt uns so wie die zu unseren Eltern, egal wie alt wir werden. Nicht selten verbringen wir heute 50 oder 60 gemeinsame Jahre, viele mehr als je zuvor. Das stellt uns vor neue gesellschaftliche, aber vor allem individuelle Aufgaben: Wie gestalten wir diese lebenslange Beziehung für beide Seiten stimmig? Wie können sich erwachsene Kinder abgrenzen, wenn alte Eltern noch lange an ihrem Leben teilhaben? Sind Kinder ihren Eltern etwas schuldig – und umgekehrt? Anschaulich und psychologisch fundiert erzählt Anne Otto von den unterschiedlichen Lebenssituationen erwachsener Kinder und ihrer Eltern. Ausgehend von konkreten Beispielen beleuchtet sie die Entwicklungsaufgaben, die Eltern und Kinder gemeinsam zu lösen haben. Denn egal ob wir uns aus konfliktbeladenen Verstrickungen befreien wollen oder eine bestehende Verbundenheit pflegen: Erst wenn die Beziehung zu unseren Eltern geklärt ist, können wir wirklich erwachsen werden.
