Parent-Infant Psychotherapy for Sleep Problems Through the Night

Parent-Infant Psychotherapy for Sleep Problems Through the Night

Sleep problems are among the most common urgent and undermining troubles parents meet. This book describes Dilys Daws' pioneering method of therapy for sleep problems honed over 40 years of work with families: brief psychoanalytic therapy with parents and infants together. Offering tried and tested ways of helping parents work things out better with their babies when such problems arise this new edition of Dilys Daws’ classic work updated with expert help from Sarah Sutton frees professionals from the burden of feeling they need to rush to give advice to families showing instead how to begin the challenging journey of discovering new emotions that every baby brings. It sheds light on the sleep problem in the context of a whole range of aspects of the early world: the regulation of babies’ physiological states; dreams and nightmares; the development of separateness; separation and attachment problems; and connections with feeding and weaning. This much-needed compassionate and well-informed guide to helping parents and babies with sleep problems draws on twenty-first century development research and rich clinical wisdom to offer ways of understanding sleep problems in each individual family context with all its particular pressures and possibilities. It will be treasured by new parents struggling with sleeplessness and is enormously valuable for anyone working with parents and their babies. | Parent-Infant Psychotherapy for Sleep Problems Through the Night

Societal Problems as Public Bads

Societal Problems as Public Bads

Corruption crime economic inequality religious fundamentalism financial crises environmental degradation population ageing gender inequality large-scale migration… This book tackles many of the most pressing problems facing societies today. The authors demonstrate that similar social mechanisms lie behind many of these seemingly disparate problems. Indeed many societal problems can be traced back to behaviours that are perfectly rational and often well-intended from an individual perspective. Yet taken together these behaviours can – paradoxically – give rise to unintended and undesirable outcomes at the society level. In addition to addressing the causes of societal problems the book explains why some problems rank higher on the public agenda than others. Moreover it is shown how government intervention may sometimes provide a cure yet other times exacerbate existing problems or create new problems of its own. This book includes an extensive amount of data on trends and geographic variation in the prevalence of different problems as well as telling examples – both recent and historical – from a variety of countries to support its key arguments. Employing a bold multidisciplinary approach the authors draw on insights from across the social sciences including sociology economics anthropology criminology and psychology. Throughout the book students are introduced to analytical concepts such as free-riding herding behaviour principal-agent relations and moral hazard. These concepts are essential tools for better understanding the roots of many societal problems that regularly make headlines in the news. This improved understanding will in turn be critical for ultimately finding solutions to these problems. | Societal Problems as Public Bads

Problems of Evil and the Power of God

Problems of Evil and the Power of God

Why do bad things happen even to good people? If there is a God why aren't God's existence and God's will for humans more apparent? And if God really does miracles for some people why not for others? This book examines these three problems of evil - suffering divine hiddenness and unfairness if miracles happen as believers claim - to explore how different ideas of God's power relate to the problem of evil. Keller argues that as long as God is believed to be all-powerful there are no adequate answers to these problems nor is it enough for theists simply to claim that human ignorance makes these problems insoluble. Arguing that there are no good grounds for the belief that God is all-powerful Keller instead defends the understanding of God and God's power found in process theism and shows how it makes possible an adequate solution to the problems of evil while providing a concept of God that is religiously adequate. | Problems of Evil and the Power of God

Food Security for Rural Africa Feeding the Farmers First

Food Security for Rural Africa Feeding the Farmers First

At least fifty years of projects aimed at the rural poor in Africa have had very little impact. Up to half of the children of these countries are still suffering from stunting and malnutrition. Soil degradation and poor crop yields are ubiquitous. Projects are almost always aimed at helping local people to solve their problems by growing for the market. In some countries projects link poor villagers into cooperatives to produce a commercial output. In other countries projects target more competent entrepreneurial villagers. Almost all these projects fail after several years. Even those that are successful make few inroads into the problems. While the slogan 'feeding the farmers first' comes from the Philippines it is particularly applicable to much of Africa where household food security can come from household production. This book explains how projects can be designed that increase food security through subsistence production. Focusing on particular people and projects it gives a sociological analysis of why this is so difficult to manage. This book challenges the models promoted by academics in the field of development studies and argues against the strategies adopted by most donor organizations and government bodies. It explains why commercial projects have been so ubiquitous even though they rarely work. It gives practical tips on how to set up villages and farms to achieve sustainable solutions that also provide plenty of nutritious food. The book is written to be accessible and engaging. For anyone planning to work in the rural areas of Africa this book is required reading. | Food Security for Rural Africa Feeding the Farmers First

Problems of Adolescence in the Secondary School

Problems of Adolescence in the Secondary School

Published in 1983. Adolescence is a period of change for all and turmoil for some. Many adolescents have problems which are easily identified but for others the problems are more subtle. There is an interaction between their own difficulties and the systems of home school and their own society. In this case problems which are very real are more difficult to define and to deal with. This book aims to help teachers to recognise and understand the common problems of adolescents as they are relevant to their schooling. In addition suggestions are made to help both teachers and adolescents overcome these difficulties. Besides the more immediately obvious issues of learning and behaviour there is also discussion of sexual behaviour vandalism and substance abuse. Throughout the book the common theme is that all problem behaviour must be understood and acted upon within a context and not regarded as examples of individual delinquency. Finally the implications of the 1981 Education Act and its impact on teachers is considered. Under this law a much wider range of young people will be deemed to have special educational needs. Consequently all teachers of adolescents will need to be aware of the issues raised and discussed in this book. | Problems of Adolescence in the Secondary School

Holism Possibilities and Problems

Holism Possibilities and Problems

Holism: Possibilities and Problems brings together leading contributors in a ground-breaking discussion of holism. The terms ‘holism’ and ‘holistic’ arouse strong emotional responses in contemporary culture whether this be negative or positive and the essays in this interdisciplinary collection probe each in its own way the possibilities and problems inherent in thinking holistically. Christian McMillan Roderick Main and David Henderson bring together established academics and emerging scholars across subject areas and disciplinary approaches to reveal the multiplicity and complexity of issues involved in holism.

Food

Food

In Food John Coveney examines ‘food as … ’ identity politics industry regulation the environment justice and gastronomy. He explores how food helps us understand what it means to be human. The centrality of food in life and the importance of food as life is undeniable. As a source of biological substrates personal pleasure and political power food is and has been an enduring requirement of human biological social and cultural existence. In recent years interest in food has increased across the academic public and popular spheres fuelled by popular media’s constant play on the role of food and body size and food and cooking as a mass spectacle for TV audiences. Through food we construct our social identities our families and communities. However Coveney also highlights the tensions between the industrialisation of food the environment and the iniquitous distribution of food. He also considers how the food industries on which most of us must rely have also had direct effects on our bodies through diet and the development of illness and diseases. This accessible primer is for students and general readers alike indeed for anyone with an interest in food. It questions the idea that food is merely something inert on the plate. Instead it shows how influential symbolic powerful and transformative food has come to be.
