Netaholics?
"What are we to make of this new disorder? What, precisely, does addiction mean? Can individuals really become addicted to the Internet?"--BOOK JACKET.
The Imaginationless Generation
In the present-day Tower of Babylon—the all-encompassing virtual world built of image layered upon image—children are the most vulnerable users. If we permit them unfettered access to media that promotes corporate and consumer values, while suppressing their cognitive development and creative imagination, then an ‘imaginationless generation’ may be our grim and inevitable future. This book takes the reader, whether an academic, a parent or an educator, through a startling journey from the harms lurking in the virtual worlds—to children’s health and well-being, to how they deal with representations of violence and sexuality, as well as exposure to cyberbullying, advertising, Inter...
Symptoms of Schizophrenia
Approaches the psychopathology of schizophrenia from the perspective of its symptoms rather than the global syndrome. Each chapter, by a recognized authority in the field, covers definition, measurement, frequency of occurrence, a review of clinical and experimental findings leading to current theories regarding the causes of the symptom, its functional relationship to other schizophrenic symptoms and implications for clinical practice.
Security, With Care
Restorative justice, as it exists in Canada and the U.S., has been co-opted and relegated to the sidelines of the dominant criminal justice system. In Security, With Care, Elizabeth M. Elliott argues that restorative justice cannot be actualized solely within the criminal justice system. If it isn’t who we are, says Elliott, then the policies will never be sustainable. Restorative justice must be more than a program within the current system – it must be a new paradigm for responding to harm and conflict. Facilitating this shift requires a rethinking of the assumptions around punishment and justice, placing emphasis instead on values and relationships. But if we can achieve this change, we have the potential to build a healthier, more ethical and more democratic society.

The Psychology of Netaholics
The year 1998 witnessed the birth of a new disorder... Internet Addiction Disorder. As the number of linkage points, host computers, connected networks and individual users plugged into the Internet has continued to increase exponentially, some have begun to question the Net's impact on our psychological well-being. Among the issues under debate is the question of whether or not Internet use is addictive. Though many regular Internet participants scoff at such an idea, and create satirical websites, IRC chat rooms and Usenet newsgroups make their point, a growing number of professionals in the field of psychology disagree. They argue that Internet participation is addictive, and that in many ways its symptoms, diagnosis and treatment parallel that of other addictions, such as compulsive gambling, shopping and even drug and alcohol use. What are we to make of this new disorder? What precisely, does "addiction" mean? Can individuals really become addicted to the Internet? This groundbreaking book examines these questions from a sociological perspective.

Die Qual der Bestie
1976... Der vierfache Kindermörder Jürgen Bartsch stirbt bei seiner Kastration, die ihn von seinen kranken, sexuellen Neigungen abbringen soll, an einer falschen Dosierung des Narkosemittels Halothan. Damit wurde die Akte der Bestie von Langenberg geschlossen, durch die in den Jahren zwischen 1962 und 1966 vier Jungen ihr Leben verloren. 2004... Der Journalist Viktor Brenner bekommt Besuch von einem aufdringlichen jungen Mann, der von Visionen gepeinigt wird. Eigentlich ist Viktor etwas ganz anderem auf der Spur, aber die Vorkommnisse nehmen den genervten Journalisten unerbittlich gefangen, führen ihn direkt bis zu jener Bestie und schließlich zur Aufklärung des Falles, die vollkommen anders verläuft als erwartet. Andy Claus begibt sich in diesem Mystery Roman in ein vollkommen anderes Genre. Zwar bleibt sie auch hier den Gays treu, die Ereignisse jedoch führen den Leser in eine Welt jenseits des Erklärbaren. Im Laufe der recht turbulenten Ereignisse lüftet die Autorin gekonnt das Geheimnis um die Bestie und führt, wie es nicht anders zu erwarten ist, die Leser mit sicherer Dramaturgie durch den Roman. Spannung und Gänsehaut sind garantiert!
