This book reviews the different theories and models that seek to explain the causes of depression from different perspectives, from the molecular to the socio-cultural level. Depression is a complex psychopathological construct of high phenotypic heterogeneity, which must be understood as a phenomenon in which different explanatory levels interact with each other. However, very little is known about this interaction. The aim of this book is to provide clinical psychologists and psychiatrists a better knowledge of the interaction of different etiopathogenic levels, in order to help these professionals make better therapeutic decisions when treating depressed patients.

En el libro, profusamente ilustrado y redactado de forma amena y desenfadada en ocasiones (un mecanismo de defensa evidente para soportar la crudeza de lo que se relata), Cebrián escribe sobre treinta asesinos, algunos de fama mundial, otros menos conocidos, pero todos auténticos monstruos. El vampiro de Dusseldorf; el carnicero de Hannover; Jeane Weber, la estranguladora de París; el depredador de Seattle; son sólo algunos de los nombres que asoman su mirada criminal por estas páginas y que nos devuelven la imagen del infierno que reposa expectante en un resquicio del corazón de todo ser humano. Psicokillers escrito por Juan Antonio Cebrián y publicado por la Editorial Nowtilus es un...

Los grandes descubrimientos científicos y tecnológicos realizados desde el siglo xx nos han abocado a un drástico cambio, no siempre fácil de asumir, en la forma de percibir y entender el universo, la naturaleza, nuestras relaciones sociales y a nosotros mismos como individuos. Al mismo tiempo, estos descubrimientos nos han dotado de nuevas herramientas que nos están permitiendo abrir la caja negra del cerebro y realizar observaciones sobre el mismo. De este modo, no solo se está logrando derivar nuevas teorías sobre el funcionamiento del cerebro, sino que nos ayuda a comprender mejor la naturaleza humana y el comportamiento de las personas a escala individual y en el ámbito de sus r...
Moyano nos ofrece una visión interna de este peligroso y radical movimiento, poniendo sobre la mesa aquellos aspectos normalmente ocultos en los que se basan, con los que se mueven, y en función de los que actúan. Así, en esta obra vamos a encontrar respuestas a muchas preguntas que pueden asaltarnos una vez que nos planteamos seriamente el porqué de que semejantes individuos actúen de la forma en la que lo hacen. ¿Qué motiva a tantos jóvenes a integrarse en las filas de un movimiento reaccionario y que impone un sistema autoritario y limitador de las libertades? Un libro que muestra sin miedo y sin tapujos quién se esconde detrás de estos grupos organizados, quién los financia y...
In what ways does tourism change the host community? This book offers original insights into the broad and deep influences of tourism, and places them within the historical context of globalisation. Intensive fieldwork spanning many years on a Canary Island has produced a rich portrayal of the community, examining the changes experienced in areas including their working lives, families, identities, local culture, values, attitudes, political structure and economic base. The tourists, predominantly independent, are also examined, and their unique impact analysed. The research emphasises the indigenous experience, and makes cross-cultural comparisons, especially with island communities. It employs the methods of sociocultural anthropology and includes the multidisciplinary findings of tourism studies: in doing so it is innovative and challenges standard understandings of the influence of specific types of tourism on small communities.
Presenta el cuadro de un mundo controlado por grandes banqueros e intereses económicos que manipulan diferentes plataformas de la sociedad. No deja de tocar el mundo religioso donde asegura existen decenas de reverendos de renombre quienes se venden a los intereses de las agendas mundiales que conducen a un nuevo orden secular. Ese es el fin de este libro, ir más allá, profundizar en estos espinosos asuntos sin eufemismos y olvidando por completo la máxima de lo "políticamente correcto", tan de moda en la prensa actual. "Estamos acostumbrados a usar los medios de comunicación como un canal de información directa y fiable, pero, como señala Miguel Pedrero, la información que recibimo...
"Faith and Power is framed within the larger processes of immigration, refugee policies, deindustrialization, the rise of the religious left and right, the human rights revolution, and the Chicana/ o, Puerto Rican, and Immigrant freedom movements. The book explores religion and religious politics as part of the larger ecosystem that has shaped Latina/o communities specifically and American politics in general"--
'Perversion is a challenge for theory and psychoanalytic practice that Juan Pablo Jimenez and Rodolfo Moguillansky, American psychoanalysts known for the originality of their contributions, have managed successfully. In this book they offer us vivid and detailed clinical material of patients of analysis who presented various kinds of perversions, which they accompany by a comprehensive and accurate review of major psychoanalytic contributions on the subject, and their own contributions to it.' The reader will find not only scholarship, but also he will find himself trapped in a thriller where the analyst is continually asked to leave his role as analyst to enter a game that fascinates and rejects. In a masterful way the authors describe their own internal vicissitudes in the treatment of these patients, the counter-transferential difficulties and how perversion becomes a source of inevitable collusions in the mind of the analyst.
