An Applied Mathematician’s Apology
In 1940 G. H. Hardy published A Mathematician's Apology, a meditation on mathematics by a leading pure mathematician. Eighty-two years later, An Applied Mathematician's Apology is a meditation and also a personal memoir by a philosophically inclined numerical analyst, one who has found great joy in his work but is puzzled by its relationship to the rest of mathematics.
Treating Affect Phobia
This hands-on manual from Leigh McCullough and associates teaches the nuts and bolts of practicing short-term dynamic psychotherapy, the research-supported model first presented in Changing Character, McCullough's foundational text. Reflecting the ongoing evolution of the approach, the manual emphasizes "affect phobia," or conflict about feelings. It shows how such proven behavioral techniques as systemic desensitization can be applied effectively within a psychodynamic framework, and offers clear guidelines for when and how to intervene. Demonstrated are procedures for assessing patients, formulating core conflicts, and restructuring defenses, affects, and relationship to the self and others. In an easy-to-use, large-size format, the book features a wealth of case examples and write-in exercises for building key clinical skills. The companion website (www.affectphobiatherapy.com) offers useful supplemental resources, including Psychotherapy Assessment Checklist (PAC) forms and instructions.
Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy
This comprehensive reference to Dr. Habib Davanloo's Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) defines all of the important terms in ISTDP, providing an in-depth discussion of almost every aspect of the therapy, including clinical examples. Whether you are just starting out with ISTDP or delving into it more deeply, this book will prove to be an invaluable resource. Jon Frederickson, author of "Co-Creating Change: Effective Dynamic Therapy Techniques" and founder of the ISTDP Institute, calls it "an essential book for any therapist learning how to do ISTDP." Robert Neborsky, MD, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the UCSD and UCLA Schools of Medicine, writes, "Teachers of ISTDP are...
Marginalism and Discontinuity
Marginalism and Discontinuity is an account of the culture of models employed in the natural and social sciences, showing how such models are instruments for getting hold of the world, tools for the crafts of knowing and deciding. Like other tools, these models are interpretable cultural objects, objects that embody traditional themes of smoothness and discontinuity, exchange and incommensurability, parts and wholes. Martin Krieger interprets the calculus and neoclassical economics, for example, as tools for adding up a smoothed world, a world of marginal changes identified by those tools. In contrast, other models suggest that economies might be sticky and ratchety or perverted and fetishis...
Deliberate Practice for Psychotherapists
This book explores how psychotherapists can use deliberate practice to improve their clinical effectiveness. By sourcing through decades of research on how experts in diverse fields achieve skill mastery, this book shows it is possible for any therapist to dramatically improve their clinical skills. To improve, therapists must focus on clinical challenges and reconsider century-old methods of clinical training from the ground up. This second edition traces recent developments in research and presents a step-by-step program to engage readers in deliberate practice to improve clinical effectiveness across the therapists’ entire career span, from beginning training for graduate students, to continuing education for licensed and advanced clinicians. Enriched with insightful clinical experiences and anecdotes, Deliberate Practice for Psychotherapists is an important read for graduate students, trainees, and practicing psychotherapists.
Sustainable and Functional Redox Chemistry
Mimicking nature's efficiency and sustainability in organic chemistry is a major goal for future chemists; redox reactions are a key element in a variety of fields ranging from synthesis and catalysis to materials chemistry and analytical applications. Sustainability is increasingly becoming a consideration in synthesis and functional chemistry and an essential element for the next generation of chemistry in academia and industry. This book represents a compilation of the latest advancements in functional redox chemistry and demonstrates its importance in achieving a more sustainable future. This book is an ideal companion for any postgraduate students or researchers interested in sustainability in academia and industry.

Using Technology to Enhance Clinical Supervision
This is the first comprehensive research and practice-based guide for understanding and assessing supervision technology and for using it to improve the breadth and depth of services offered to supervisees and clients. Written by supervisors, for supervisors, it examines the technology that is currently available and how and when to use it. Part I provides a thorough review of the technological, legal, ethical, cultural, accessibility, and security competencies that are the foundation for effectively integrating technology into clinical supervision. Part II presents applications of the most prominent and innovative uses of technology across the major domains in counseling, along with best practices for delivery. Each chapter in this section contains a literature review, concrete examples for use, case examples, and lessons learned. *Requests for digital versions from the ACA can be found on wiley.com. *To request print copies, please visit the ACA website here. *Reproduction requests for material from books published by ACA should be directed to permissions@counseling.org
Clinical Thinking in Psychotherapy
Clinical Thinking in Psychotherapy empowers practitioners and students to better understand clients by attending to both verbal and nonverbal forms of expression. Readers will find tools for unlearning biases and for providing effective therapy with transcripts and dialogic tools. Chapters focus on how to practice clinical thinking, how to teach it, and how to reflect on what is being taught. Therapists, supervisors, and students alike will come away from this book with decision tree questions and prompts, as well as metacognitive questions for structuring consultations and producing desirable outcomes for the clinician and the patient.
Combinatorics of Train Tracks. (AM-125), Volume 125
Measured geodesic laminations are a natural generalization of simple closed curves in surfaces, and they play a decisive role in various developments in two-and three-dimensional topology, geometry, and dynamical systems. This book presents a self-contained and comprehensive treatment of the rich combinatorial structure of the space of measured geodesic laminations in a fixed surface. Families of measured geodesic laminations are described by specifying a train track in the surface, and the space of measured geodesic laminations is analyzed by studying properties of train tracks in the surface. The material is developed from first principles, the techniques employed are essentially combinato...
