Body Image, Eating, and Weight
This book equips readers with the knowledge required to improve diagnosis and treatment and to implement integrated prevention programs in patients with eating and weight disorders.

Psychological Factors Affecting Medical Conditions
In DSM-IV, the relationships between physical illness and psychological factors are grouped under the classifications 'Somatoform Disorders' and 'Psychological Factors Affecting Medical Conditions'(PFAMC). This volume introduces the 'Diagnostic Criteria for Psychosomatic Research' (DCPR) as a new proposal for the PFAMC section of DSM-V. The DCPR approach focuses on psychological characteristics of patients presenting symptoms across different medical disorders related to the clinically relevant psychosocial constructs of abnormal illness behavior, i.e. somatization, demoralization, type A behavior, alexithymia, conversion, and irritability.

La provincia e l'Impero
Il trafugamento dagli archivi statunitensi di centinaia di migliaia di documenti ha rivoluzionato nel 2010 il panorama informativo mondiale, imponendo il “caso WikiLeaks” all’attenzione generale. Gli inconfessabili retroscena dell’invasione dell’Iraq e i reali motivi della presenza militare in Afghanistan costituiscono solo una parte dei dispacci diplomatici centrati sulla politica estera statunitense, ovvero sul sistema di potere che condiziona gli assetti internazionali. La valanga di materiale desecretato in un modo così inusuale e massiccio coinvolge un decennio di vicende italiane: dai rapporti italo-statunitensi alle valutazioni sul “personaggio” Berlusconi, alla politic...

Ethics and the Endangerment of Children's Bodies
This book addresses the endangerment of children’s bodies in affluent societies. Bodily integrity is an important part of a child’s physical and mental well-being, but it can also be violated through various threats during childhood; not only affecting physical health but also causing mental damage and leading to distortions in the development of the self. The authors give an account of three areas, which present different serious dangers: (1) body and eating, (2) body and sexuality, and (3) body and violence. Through an in-depth examination of the available theoretical and empirical knowledge, as well as a thorough ethical analysis, the central injustices in the mentioned areas are identified and the agents with responsibilities towards children displayed. The authors conclude by providing invaluable insight into the necessity of an ethical basis for policies to safeguard children and their bodies.

The first part of this book offers practical guidance for conceiving, organizing, and initiating outpatient groups, equipping clinicians with the necessary tools to foster supportive and transformative environments. The second includes seven chapters that delve into the core themes of eating disor...
