Wat elke professional over de oggz moet weten
by Gert SchoutIn de Openbare Geestelijke Gezondheidszorg (OGGz) worden mensen geholpen die hulp nodig hebben maar er niet om vragen, of er niet om vragen bij het juiste adres. Vaak gaat het om combinaties van problemen en beperkingen. De belangrijkste reden dat de OGGz bestaat is echter niet de problemen of beperkingen van de doelgroep, maar het onvermogen van instanties om integrale, assertieve en grensoverschrijdende hulp te bieden. Drempels, productieplafonds, wachtlijsten en indicaties bemoeilijken de toegang tot de hulpverlening. Deze uitgave wil antwoord geven op de vraag 'wat iedere professional moet weten over de OGGz'. Het bestaansrecht van de OGGz centraal te stellen: waarom is er een OGGz? Hoe komt dat? En hoe is de OGGz buiten Nederland georganiseerd? Antwoorden op die vragen zijn echter ook van belang voor het beroepsvoorbereidend onderwijs. Dit boekje is daarom ook bedoeld voor de opleidingen die voorbereiden op eerdergenoemde werkterreinen.
Wat elke professional over verslaving moet weten: Canon Verslaving
by Jaap van der StelDit boek is onmisbaar voor alle personen die zich, professioneel of in lerende of opleidende rol, in of rond de verslavingszorg bewegen. Het is een unieke publicatie op gebied van kennisoverdracht, bekwaamheidsontwikkeling, onderwijs en opleiding. Dit gedegen overzicht van de belangrijkste onderdelen van verslaving en verslavingszorg kan beschouwd worden als canon en tegelijkertijd als 'body of knowledge' van dit vakgebied. De focus is in dit boek gericht op gebruik, misbruik en afhankelijkheid van psychoactieve stoffen, met name op alcohol, heroïne, cocaïne en cannabis. Hoewel de verslavingszorg in Nederland al meer dan een eeuw bestaat, is er niet eerder een handleiding verschenen dat specifiek voor het hoger onderwijs (m. n. HBO) is geschreven. Aan dit boek liggen geselecteerde teksten - tientallen artikelen, handboeken, richtlijnen en literatuurstudies - ten grondslag die qua actualiteit, leesbaarheid en empirische onderbouwing voldoen aan de hoge normen die de Raad voor Bekwaamheidsontwikkeling stelt. Deze Raad heeft de opdracht om 'moderne verslavingskunde' te bevorderen in opleidingen, trainingen en na- en bijscholing van professionals in de gezondheidszorg. De handleiding kent 4 hoofdstukken: Middelen, gebruik en gebruikerMisbruik en verslavingMaatschappelijke gevolgen en overheidsbeleidBehandeling en begeleiding bij verslavingOm ruimte te besparen wordt in de tekst verwezen naar websites wanneer daar uitmuntende en actuele overzichten en praktische informatie over hulpverlening staan.

Watching the English: The Hidden Rules of English Behaviour
by Kate FoxA runaway bestseller in the UK, Watching the English is now available in the U.S. for the first time! Witty and wise, Kate Fox reveals the quirks, habits, and foibles of the English people. Putting the national character under her microscope, Fox explores this strange and fascinating culture, governed by a complex set of unspoken rules and a bizarre code of conduct. Through anthropological analysis and a series of unorthodox experiments (often using herself as a reluctant guinea-pig), Fox discovers what these unwritten codes tell us about Englishness: the rules of weather-speak, the ironic-gnome rule, the reflex apology rule, the paranoid-pantomime rule, class anxiety tests, and the money-talk taboo, among others. Watching the English is a biting, affectionate, insightful, and often hilarious look at English society.

The Watercooler Effect
by Nicholas Difonzo"A fresh look at informal communication, and how information spreads rapidly...An absorbing and compelling book." -Daniel J. Levitin, author of This Is Your Brain on Music and The World in Six Songs "Nicholas DiFonzo is one of the world's experts on why rumors spread. If you've ever wondered where rumors come from or whether some new rumor is true, this book will fascinate you." - Chip Heath, coauthor of Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die During the 2008 presidential election, both campaigns sought to detect, decipher, and defuse a host of derogatory rumors. After Hurricane Katrina, rumors swirled about stranded residents shooting rescue workers. Tipping off the economic crisis, costly rumors crippled financial institutions as they flew through the stock market. Pyschologist Nicholas DiFonzo has studied hearsay for more than fifteen years, and in this book he shows how the process that gave rise to these troubling rumors is fundamentally the same as a tête-à-tête around the company watercooler. With The Watercooler Effect, you'll learn: * how businesses or campaigns can control destructive rumors * how to sort fact from fiction * why a "no comment" response can be more detrimental than helpful * how an organization can increase trust from within * why rumors can actually become more truthful the more they spread DiFonzo argues that rumors stem from our deeply rooted motivation to make sense of the world and are a window into both individual and group psychology. Using fascinating case studies and surprising research findings, The Watercooler Effect gives you the tools to find the truth behind the rumor.

The Wave
by Tyler CharltonWhen a boy is swept up in a wave of sadness, he finds himself tumbling. But when he remembers that this sadness won't last forever, and that the wave will eventually carry him back to shore, he discovers his friends and family waiting to gently pull him out of the water and back home. With hopeful text and gorgeous art, The Wave takes us on a journey through one child's experience with depression that fosters empathy for those on the outside, and solidarity for those still caught in the midst of their own wave.

The Wave is a must-read for anyone who finds themselves tumbling, and a beautiful reminder that we can reach out to others to keep our heads - and hearts - above water.
The Wave Theory of Difference and Similarity (Psychology Revivals)
by Stephen W. LinkTwo experimental procedures prompted the empirical development of psychophysical models: those that measure response frequency, often referred to as response probability; and those that measure response time, sometimes referred to as reaction time. The history of psychophysics is filled with theories that predict one or the other of these two responses. Yet the persistent reappearance of empirical relationships between these two measures of performance makes clear the need for a theory that both predicts and relates these two measures. Most likely, both response measures are the result of a single process that generates empirical laws relating response time and response probability. It is this process — its theory, description, and application — that is the topic of The Wave Theory of Difference and Similarity. Originally published in 1992, the author of this book has set out to provide a theoretical foundation for formulating new theories that systematize earlier results and to stimulate new concepts and introduce new tools for exploring mental phenomena and improving mental measurement.

The Way of Boys
by Anthony Rao Michelle SeatonThe problem isn't with boys, it's with our expectations of them In a book that's part advice and part exposÉ, psychologist and expert on boyhood development Dr. Anthony Rao challenges some of the potentially harmful assumptions, attitudes, and behaviors we've developed toward young boyhood over the last few decades. This is not an indictment of medication therapies--in some important instances, Dr. Rao argues that medication is appropriate and necessary. Rather, The Way of Boys is a celebration of natural, constructive boyhood development and an expert, definitive handbook on what to look for and expect in normal growth. Ask yourself these questions: Is his behavior serious enough to interfere with functioning? Does it keep him from sleeping, eating, attending school, or staying safe? Does it persist over a few weeks or more? Does it show itself more than a few isolated times per day? Does it happen in different settings? Has it been reported by different people? If your answer is yes to any of these, your son may have symptoms that need further assessment by a pediatrician or other qualified developmental specialist. But a yes answer doesn't mean your son has a lifelong disorder or that the first line of defense is medication. Boys are being bombarded with a slew of diagnoses--ADHD, Asperger's, bipolar disorder--at an alarming rate and at younger ages. The Way of Boys urges parents, educators, pediatricians, psychologists, and other developmental experts to reevaluate and significantly change how we deal with our youngest boys. It's time we stopped trying to "fix" young boys. When parents understand the wide spectrum for normal boy development, they can successfully communicate with their son--and everyone in their son's life--and help him grow into a healthy, smart, strong man.

The Way of Conflict: Elemental Wisdom for Resolving Disputes and Transcending Differences
by Deidre CombsThe Way of Conflict teaches strategies for using ancient wisdom and modern techniques to confidently engage in any dispute and reach a balanced resolution. This groundbreaking book integrates the wealth of conflict skills found throughout the world’s major religious and indigenous traditions with the latest scientific systems and conflict resolution theory. It uses the cross-cultural metaphor of the four natural elements — earth, water, fire, and air — to identify the innate conflict personality types and propose a productive path through the chaos of conflict. Combining her extensive experience as a licensed mediator and corporate trainer with wisdom gained from years of spiritual study, Combs uses assessment tests, anecdotes from indigenous and religious traditions, and illustrative folktales to show how to quickly assess a conflict and implement an appropriate resolution strategy.
