Psychotherapy Case Formulation
The psychotherapy case formulation model is integrative, and takes an evidence-based approach to treatment by mental health practitioners. Formulating cases is an essential component of psychotherapy training and practice, yet beginning therapists often struggle to organize their ideas about the client and apply theory to the case. The model presented in this volume is designed to adapt to any theory of therapy, any treatment manual, and any component of a theory. The author emphasizes case formulation inferences that are based on theories with supporting evidence, expert knowledge about formulation, and steps to enhance sound reasoning in case formulation. This book incorporates a focus on culturally responsive therapy by presenting a cultural perspective, including consideration of race and ethnicity, sex and gender, socioeconomic status, and religion and spiritual orientation, on case formulation and providing guidance on incorporating culture into a case conceptualization. It draws heavily upon cognitive science research to support evidence-based practice in case formulation, and includes a case example and checklist to illustrate the principles and steps of formulation. Topics investigated include the slippery definitions of mental disorders, approaches to assessing behavior and selecting a treatment approach, and treatment planning. The book also explores the role psychiatric diagnosis plays in psychotherapy, its limitations, its societal impacts, and what it contributes uniquely to case formulation.
Roztříštění
Po neúspěšném pokusu o sebevraždu je matka tří dětí hospitalizována v psychiatrické léčebně. Její patologická osobnost předtím dokázala poničit všechny, kteří s ní žili pod jednou střechou: slabošského manžela, na první pohled pragmatickou dceru Radanu, zranitelnou a křehkou Jindřišku i povrchního syna Leoše. Nyní je lékaři označena za vyléčenou a může se vrátit do běžného života. V jejích blízkých tahle zpráva vyvolá spíše úzkost a strach z návratu zlých časů. Jsou jejich obavy zbytečné, nebo jejich noční můra ještě neskončila?
Psychologický román Roztříštění přináší temný a depresivní příběh o destruktivní síle narušené psychiky.
Never a Hero - Sohasem hős
Az Only ?a Monster - Csak egy szörnyeteg folytatásában egy eltemetett múlt veszélybe sodorhatja az egész jövőt.
Joan véghez vitte a lehetetlent: visszaállította az idővonalat, megmentette a családját, és elpusztította a hőst, Nicket.
Csakhogy mindezért súlyos árat fizetett.
Ő emlékszik egyedül arra, hogy mi történt. Aaron, akit nehezen, de barátjává - vagy talán még többé - tett, most az ellensége, és meg akarja ölni. Nick, akit szeretett, idegenné vált, még a nevét sem ismeri. És csak Joan tudja, hogy egy könyörtelen, veszedelmes ellenség továbbra is ólálkodik körülöttük.
Nem telik el sok idő, és egy halálos támadás után ismét menekülni kényszerül a szörnyek világában. Ráadásul közben rábukkan egy titokra is, ami mindenkit veszélybe sodorhat, akit szeret.
Szerelem és család, áldozatok és szörnyű döntések közt őrlődve Joan kénytelen összegyűjteni régi szövetségeseit, hogy szembeszálljanak minden idők legveszélyesebb ellenségével, és újra megmentsék az idővonalat.
Coomaraswamy
A biography of Ananda K. Coomaraswamy, the pioneering interpreter of Indian art, philosophy, and mythology“A rounded, gently critical, always interesting portrait of this unique personality.”—Joseph Campbell, author of The Hero with a Thousand FacesAnanda K. Coomaraswamy (1877–1947) was a pioneer in Indian art history and in the cultural meeting of East and West in the twentieth century. A scholar in the tradition of the great Indian grammarians and philosophers, an art historian convinced that the ultimate value of art transcends history, and a social thinker influenced by William Morris, Coomaraswamy was a unique figure. Finding a universal tradition in past cultures ranging from the Hellenic and Christian to the Indian, Islamic, and Chinese, he wrote many influential books and essays in which he explored his ideas about ancient symbols and wisdom. In this biography, Roger Lipsey chronicles the development of Coomaraswamy’s ideas and the career that led him from geology to art history and metaphysics, and from Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) to England and the United States.
Sabeena
Loneliness is Vikram's constant companion, born out of his rootlessness. Ever since he learned of his father's forced displacement, he has longed for a home on familial soil, a place where the fragrance of his ancestors lingers in the grains of sand. No matter where life takes him, no triumph can cure the wounds left by the tragedy that partitioned his history from him. On the other side of the Wall, Sabeena is a brilliant woman whose fate delivers her into the caste most discriminated against in Indian society. Beautiful and unyielding, she carries within her a fire of calm resistance and the grace of sacrifice.

The Sun and the Starmaker
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Nature of Witches comes a whimsical and sweeping romantic fantasy.
There once was a village so far north that most considered it the top of the world... and in that village, the Sun fell in love with her Starmaker.
Nestled deep in the snowy mountains of the Lost Range, the village of Reverie is a small miracle. Beyond the reach of the Sun, Reverie is dependent upon the magic of the mysterious Starmaker: every morning, he trudges across a vast glacier and pulls in sunlight over the peaks, providing the village with the light it needs to survive.
Aurora Finch grew up on tales of the Starmaker’s magic, never imagining she’d one day meet him. But on the morning of her wedding, a fateful encounter in the frostbitten woods changes everything. The Starmaker senses a powerful magic within her and demands she come study under his guidance. With her newfound abilities tied to the survival of the village, Aurora is swept away to his ice-covered castle and far from everything she’s ever known.
The Starmaker is as cold and distant as the mountain itself, leaving Aurora to explore his enchanted castle alone. Yet the more she discovers about the sorcerer, the stronger their attraction grows, pulling her closer to the secrets he refuses to share. But a deadly frost approaches and Aurora must uncover what the Starmaker is hiding before she is left in an endless winter that even the Sun cannot touch.
Agnes Aubert's Mystical Cat Shelter
'WISTFUL, WARM AND IRRESISTIBLY CHARMING' Olivia Atwater, author of Half a SoulFrom the Sunday Times bestselling author of Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries comes a healing and heart-warming fantasy with magic shops, rescue cats and a second chance at love. Reader reviews:'Amazing!'?'Love it!' ?'I wanted it to last forever!' ?All strays are welcome here. Agnes Aubert is very fond of making lists. These lists kept her afloat when she lost her husband two years ago. And now, as the founder of a cat rescue charity, her meticulous organization skills feel like the only thing standing between her beloved cats - His Majesty, Banshee and sweet elderly Thoreau, to name a few - and utter disaster. But when Agnes is forced to move the charity, she soon discovers that her new shop is being used as a front; right under her feet is the lair of the decidedly disorganised - not to mention self-absorbed and infuriatingly handsome - Havelock Renard. Havelock is everything Agnes doesn't want in her life: chaos, mischief, and a little too much adventure. But as she gets to know him, she discovers he's more than the dark magician of legend, and that she may be ready for a little intrigue, perhaps even romance. After all, second chances aren't just for rescue cats. . . Praise for Agnes Aubert's Mystical Cat Shelter:'Reading Agnes Aubert's Mystical Cat Shelter reminded me of flying through the pages of Howl's Moving Castle for the first time--a warm and wondrous and magical experience. Fair warning: you might be tempted to add another cat (or two or three) to your home menagerie after reading this book.' Megan Bannen, author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy'Steeped in charm, wit and warmth, this is the perfect book to curl up with. Come for the delightfully fickle cats, stay for the grumpy wizard and tender romance. With the fuzzy persistence of cat hair on a jumper, it'll stick with you long after you put it down' Georgia Summers, author of The City of Stardust'Absolutely magnificent! Full of cats and magic, this is the kind of book you want to instantly re-read. I loved every character, every cat, and every moment with all my heart' Sarah Beth Durst, author of The Spellshop'It's been a long time since I so desperately wished to climb inside a novel and claim it for my home. This story feels like a gift-just for me!-but it will resonate with any reader searching for more magic, more kindness, more pastries in the world' Stephanie Perkins, author of Overdue 'This is a perfect book' Kiersten White, author of The Fox and the Devil
Can College Level the Playing Field?
Why higher education is not a silver bullet for eradicating economic inequality and social injusticeWe often think that a college degree will open doors to opportunity regardless of one’s background or upbringing. In this eye-opening book, two of today’s leading economists argue that higher education alone cannot overcome the lasting effects of inequality that continue to plague us, and offer sensible solutions for building a more just and equitable society. Sandy Baum and Michael McPherson document the starkly different educational and social environments in which children of different races and economic backgrounds grow up, and explain why social equity requires sustained efforts to provide the broadest possible access to high-quality early childhood and K–12 education. They dismiss panaceas like eliminating college tuition and replacing the classroom experience with online education, revealing why they fail to provide better education for those who need it most, and discuss how wages in our dysfunctional labor market are sharply skewed toward the highly educated. Baum and McPherson argue that greater investment in the postsecondary institutions that educate most low-income and marginalized students will have a bigger impact than just getting more students from these backgrounds into the most prestigious colleges and universities. While the need for reform extends far beyond our colleges and universities, there is much that both academic and government leaders can do to mitigate the worst consequences of America’s deeply seated inequalities. This book shows how we can address the root causes of social injustice and level the playing field for students and families before, during, and after college.
