Was sind die entscheidenden Faktoren für die Wirksamkeit von Erlebnispädagogik? Aufbauend auf grundlegenden Modellen entwickeln die Autoren des Buches eine neue Perspektive - sowohl aus Sicht der Teilnehmer, als auch aus Sicht der durchführenden Erlebnispädagogen. Die Leser werden für die Bedeutung einer möglichst neutralen und wertschätzenden Haltung sensibilisiert. Ziel ist, eine "echte" Entwicklung auf persönlicher Ebene bei den Teilnehmern zu erreichen und diese zu begleiten. Viele Praxisbeispiele machen die theoretischen Überlegungen leicht verständlich. Die Autoren, Roland Abstreiter, Rafaela und Reinhard Zwerger, sind Lehrtrainer für erlebnispädagogische Weiterbildungen bei der Zwerger&Raab GmbH. Sie tragen in diesem Buch Erkenntnisse aus drei Jahrzehnten erlebnispädagogischer Arbeit zusammen und stellen das Entwickeln der eigenen Haltung und Persönlichkeit in den Mittelpunkt einer systemischen Prozessbegleitung in der Erlebnispädagogik.
Robert E. Burns, a World War I veteran coerced into taking part in a petty crime in Atlanta, Georgia, was sentenced to hard labor on a chain gang in 1922. Twice escaping and on the lam for decades, he was aided only by his minister-poet brother, Vincent G. Burns. Their collaborative work, I Am a Fugitive from a Georgia Chain Gang! was the basis for Darryl F. Zanuck's and Mervyn Leroy's hard-hitting 1932 film adaptation from Warner Bros. This book traces the making and influence of the film--which launched a string of imitators--and the Burns brothers' efforts to obtain a pardon for Robert, which never came.

A large number of diseases affect salivary gland (SG) secretion through different mechanisms, leading to SG dysfunction and associated oral problems. The glands may suffer from viral, bacterial, and, albeit rarely, fungal infections, which may cause painful swelling or obstruction; they could also become the target of an autoimmune attack or may be affected by various benign and malignant tumors which consist of a heterogeneous group of lesions with complex clinical–pathological characteristics. The loss of normal SG function results in widespread deterioration of oral health. This book, entitled “Diseases of Salivary Glands”, provides an overview of recent advances in the field of SG disorders, focusing on the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of SG diseases and on the most innovative investigation techniques that could help to preserve patients’ health, function, and quality of life.
Throughout the world, sonography is often the first and sometimes the only imaging modality to be used after clinical examination. This is particularly true for the cervical region. This book reviews the sonographic features of the cervical structures, including the thyroid, parathyroids, salivary glands, lymph nodes, larynx and hypopharynx, and blood vessels. Detailed morphological descriptions of numerous pathological processes are provided, followed by thorough discussion of differential diagnostic problems. The role of all of the new technical modalities, including high-definition gray scale, enhanced color Doppler, and ultrasound contrast agents, is fully considered. The closing chapter is devoted to the use of cervical sonography in pediatrics.
