A depressão é um dos transtornos mentais mais comuns ao redor do mundo, acometendo uma parcela significativa da sociedade que, muitas vezes, não tem acesso a tratamento. Assim, para auxiliar tanto pacientes e seus familiares como profissionais da saúde a melhor compreender e manejar esse transtorno, os organizadores deste manual reuniram autores com ampla experiência clínica e de pesquisa para apresentar as técnicas mais efetivas da terapia cognitivo-comportamental (TCC) voltada ao tratamento da depressão. Prático, objetivo e escrito com linguagem acessível, este livro inclui: informações teóricas para psicoeducação sobre o transtorno; capítulos sobre a aplicação das técnicas da TCC; exemplos clínicos que contextualizam os conteúdos apresentados; exercícios práticos fundamentados no modelo cognitivo-comportamental; escalas e formulários para preenchimento on-line que apoiarão o leitor em seu progresso durante o tratamento; capítulos sobre temas como o papel da família, a prevenção de recaídas, o uso de intervenções digitais (aplicativos e sites) no tratamento da depressão, as abordagens farmacológicas, a eletroconvulsoterapia, entre outros.
Cultural heritage is perceived as the glue that keeps individuals together and makes them feel a part of something larger. It is the past that allows individuals to understand their present and move towards the future. In networked society, it is impossible to think about cultural heritage and its preservation and maintenance without including the digital processes and ICT systems, as well as its impact on territorial innovation. The Handbook of Research on Cultural Heritage and Its Impact on Territory Innovation and Development is a critical and comprehensive reference book that analyzes how preservation and sustainability of cultural heritage occurs in countries, as well as how it contributes to territorial innovation.

Highlighting topics that include public policies, spatial development, and architectural heritage, this book is ideal for cultural heritage professionals, government officials, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students.
