A wide-ranging discussion of factors that impede the cumulation of knowledge in the social sciences, including problems of transparency, replication, and reliability. Rather than focusing on individual studies or methods, this book examines how collective institutions and practices have (often unintended) impacts on the production of knowledge.
Socioculturally Attuned Family Therapy addresses the need for socially responsible couple, marriage, and family therapy that infuses diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout theory and clinical practice. The text begins with a discussion of societal systems, diversity, and socially just practice. The authors then integrate principles of societal context, power, and equity into the core concepts of ten major family therapy models, paying close attention to the "how to’s" of change processes through a highly diverse range of case examples. The text concludes with descriptions of integrative, equity-based family therapy guidelines that clinicians can apply to their practice.

Sabemos que el mundo de la educación es multidisciplinar y requiere estudios e investigaciones interdisciplinares.

No se puede entender una sociedad educadora sin la lectura, de aquí el título de este libro: Sociedad educadora, sociedad lectora, que recoge las ponencias y comunicaciones del XXII Seminario Interuniversitario de Pedagogía Social, organizado por la SIPS y el CEPLI, que tuvo lugar en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación y Humanidades de la Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha.

Como fixeron escritores e artistas para iren creando unha cerna importante de campo, de autonomía e de valores literarios? Neste libro reflexiónase sobre a relación en certo modo contraditoria entre ideoloxía, acción e autonomía da arte e trátase de analizar algunhas das solucións que o campo literario deu a ...
