Learning from Resilient People – hinnat ja saatavuus

This comprehensive core textbook analyzes how resilient people navigate the troubled waters of life’s traumas and identifies how learning about resilience may help cultivate this quality in other, less resilient, people. Author Morley D. Glicken explains the inner self-healing processes of resilient people and helps individuals training in the helping professions to learn to use these processes in working with their clients. Key Features: Presents Current Research on Resilience: The most current data is provided on a variety of common physical, social, and emotional problems experienced by people and the way in which resilient people cope with those problems. In addition, an entire chapter summarizes what we know about resilience and how it can be applied to clinical practice. Provides Engaging Case Examples: Wonderful and honestly written stories from resilient people about how they cope so well with their traumas illustrate how therapy using resilience can work. From this perspective, therapy draws from strength rather than deficit or psychopathology. There is also a chapter on resilient communities, not often discussed in literature, which supports the idea that communities can help people increase their resilience. Examines Resilience Across the Life Cycle: The meaning and definitions of resilience is discussed as well as how it functions throughout the life cycle and through multiple life events. This book also clarifies the erroneous notion that resilient people are endlessly resilient and helps recognize resilience as an actual and real attribute, and not one that makes people seem super human. Intended Audience: This is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses in Psychology, Counseling, Social Work, Psychiatric Nursing, Marriage and Family Counseling, and Criminal Justice that teach direct practice techniques, approaches, and theories. It is also a valuable resource for practitioners, administrators, teachers, mental health workers, and family service agencies.?
