Hip-Hop and Spoken Word Therapy in School Counseling: Developing Culturally Responsive Approaches (Explorations in Mental Health)
by Ian LevyThis volume recognizes the need for culturally responsive forms of school counseling and draws on the author’s first-hand experiences of working with students in urban schools in the United States to illustrate how hip-hop culture can be effectively integrated into school counseling to benefit and support students. Detailing the theoretical development, practical implementation and empirical evaluation of a holistic approach to school counseling dubbed "Hip-Hop and Spoken Word Therapy" (HHSWT), this volume documents the experiences of the school counsellor and students throughout a HHSWT pilot program in an urban high school. Chapters detail the socio-cultural roots of hip-hop and explain how hip-hop inspired practices such as writing lyrics, producing mix tapes and using traditional hip-hop cyphers can offer an effective means of transcending White, western approaches to counseling. The volume foregrounds the needs of racially diverse, marginalized youth, whilst also addressing the role and positioning of the school counselor in using HHSWT. Offering deep insights into the practical and conceptual challenges and benefits of this inspiring approach, this book will be a useful resource for practitioners and scholars working at the intersections of culturally responsive and relevant forms of school counseling, spoken word therapy and hip-hop studies.

The Hippocampus from Cells to Systems
by Deborah E. Hannula Melissa C. DuffThe hippocampus has long been considered a critical substrate in the neurobiology, neuropsychology, and cognitive neuroscience of memory. Over the past few decades, a number of ground-breaking theoretical and methodological advances have radically enhanced our understanding of the structure and function of the hippocampus and revolutionized the neuroscientific study of memory. Cutting across disciplines and approaches, these advances offer novel insights into the molecular and cellular structure and physiology of the hippocampus, the role of hippocampus in the formation, (re)consolidation, enhancement, and retrieval of memory across time and development, and permit investigators to address questions about how the hippocampus interacts, functionally and anatomically, with other neural systems in service of memory. In addition, recent investigations also suggest that the mechanistic properties and functional processing features of the hippocampus permit broader contributions to cognition, beyond memory, to the domains of attention, decision-making, language, social cognition, and a variety of other capacities that are critical for flexible cognition and behavior. These advances have profound implications for the neurobiology and cognitive neuroscience of hippocampus dependent cognition and for the numerous psychiatric and neurological diseases and disorders for which hippocampal pathology is a hallmark such as Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. The goal of this book is to bring together in a single source an integrated review of these advances providing state of the art treatment on the structure and function of the hippocampus. Contributors will examine the hippocampus from a variety of levels (from cells to systems) using a wide range of methods (from neurobiological approaches in non-human animals to neuroimaging and neuropsychological work in humans).

Doch wie kommt das?Das Buch beleuchtet das brisante Thema „Hirndoping" erstmals aus zahlreichen Blickwinkeln wie Soziologie, Medizin, Sport- und Rechtswissenschaften und vielen weiteren Disziplinen.Es zeichnet den Weg von der Agrargesellschaft, in der die Geschwindigkeit des Lebens von den natürlichen Gegebenheiten abhing, bis in die heutige Zeit nach. Eine Zeit, in der es durch Globalisierung und Digitalisierung vermeintlich keine Grenzen mehr gibt. Die letzte Grenze, die es zu überwinden gilt, scheint unser Geist. „Hirndoping“ bietet sich hier als Antwort aus den Regalen der Arzneimittelindustrie an. Eine Antwort, die aber nur begrenzt funktioniert und die gesundheitlich, juristisch und ethisch nicht frei von Risiken und Nebenwirkungen ist. Alternativlos ist „Hirndoping“ jedenfalls nicht.

Hiroshima
by Ran ZwigenbergIn 1962, a Hiroshima peace delegation and an Auschwitz survivor's organization exchanged relics and testimonies, including the bones and ashes of Auschwitz victims. This symbolic encounter, in which the dead were literally conscripted in the service of the politics of the living, serves as a cornerstone of this volume, capturing how memory was utilized to rebuild and redefine a shattered world. This is a powerful study of the contentious history of remembrance and the commemoration of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima in the context of the global development of Holocaust and World War II memory. Emphasizing the importance of nuclear issues in the 1950s and 1960s, Zwigenberg traces the rise of global commemoration culture through the reconstruction of Hiroshima as a 'City of Bright Peace', memorials and museums, global tourism, developments in psychiatry, and the emergence of the figure of the survivor-witness and its consequences for global memory practices.

HISTORIA UNIVERSAL DE LA HISTERIA (EBOOK
by Malele PenchanskyLa histeria femenina fue diagnosticada por la medicina occidental antigua como una enfermedad que provenía de perturbaciones del útero y cuyo tratamiento era conocido como "masaje pélvico", que consistía en la estimulación de la zona de los genitales hasta llegar al orgasmo. El mismo Freud se interesó especialmente por la histeria y más cerca de nuestro tiempo la psicoanalista francesa Diane Chauvelot la caracterizó como un síntoma social. El origen de la histeria fue cambiando y lo sigue haciendo. Historia universal de la histeria recrea algunas historias atravesadas por este síntoma: la mirada de la Medusa, la palabra que enamora en Sócrates y Alcibíades, el travestismo y la ambig edad en Juana de Arco, o la seducción masculina del Don Juan. Desde la histérica paradigmática Anna O. hasta la observación de rasgos histéricos en personajes de nuestros días, Malele Penchansky logra un fresco audaz y provocativo sobre un síntoma que, sostiene, no es privativo de las mujeres ni tan malo como nos hicieron creer. Después de todo, de la histeria se nutre el juego amoroso.
Historians on Leadership and Strategy: Case Studies From Antiquity to Modernity
by Martin GutmannThis book examines the well-covered subject of leadership from a unique perspective: history's vast catalogue of leadership successes and failures. Through a collection of highly compelling case studies spanning two millennia, it looks beyond the classic leadership parable of men in military or political crises and shows that successful leadership cannot be reduced to simplistic formulae.Written by experts in the field and based on rigorous research, each case provides a rich and compelling account that is accessible to a wide audience, from students to managers. Rather than serving as a vehicle for advancing a particular theory of leadership, each case invites readers to reflect, debate and extract their own insights.
Historical and Conceptual Foundations of Measurement in the Human Sciences: Credos and Controversies
by Derek C. BriggsHistorical and Conceptual Foundations of Measurement in the Human Sciences explores the assessment and measurement of nonphysical attributes that define human beings: abilities, personalities, attitudes, dispositions, and values. The proposition that human attributes are measurable remains controversial, as do the ideas and innovations of the six historical figures—Gustav Fechner, Francis Galton, Alfred Binet, Charles Spearman, Louis Thurstone, and S. S. Stevens—at the heart of this book. Across 10 rich, elaborative chapters, readers are introduced to the origins of educational and psychological scaling, mental testing, classical test theory, factor analysis, and diagnostic classification and to controversies spanning the quantity objection, the role of measurement in promoting eugenics, theories of intelligence, the measurement of attitudes, and beyond. Graduate students, researchers, and professionals in educational measurement and psychometrics will emerge with a deeper appreciation for both the challenges and the affordances of measurement in quantitative research.
Historical and Geographical Influences on Psychopathology
by Patricia Cohen Cheryl Slomkowski Lee N. RobinsThis book begins with the assumption that a deep understanding of the origins of psychopathology, human dysfunction, and their course is fundamental to the quest for the good society, and perhaps, even to our survival as a species. The studies presented compare prevalences and risk factors across time and place, and make use of concepts and methods from history, geography, sociology, anthropology, economics, psychology, social and medical services research, social policy, psychiatry, and epidemiology. Collectively, they illustrate the methods and methodological difficulties involved in the effort to achieve a deep understanding and provide important insights into the disorders and dysfunctions that are investigated.
Historical and Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Hope
by Steven C. van den HeuvelThis open access volume makes an important contribution to the ongoing research on hope theory by combining insights from both its long history and its increasing multi-disciplinarity. In the first part, it recognizes the importance of the centuries-old reflection on hope by offering historical perspectives and tracing it back to ancient Greek philosophy. At the same time, it provides novel perspectives on often-overlooked historical theories and developments and challenges established views. The second part of the volume documents the state of the art of current research in hope across eight disciplines, which are philosophy, theology, psychology, economy, sociology, health studies, ecology, and development studies. Taken together, this volume provides an integrated view on hope as a multi-faced phenomenon. It contributes to the further understanding of hope as an essential human capacity, with the possibility of transforming our human societies.
The Historical and Philosophical Context of Rational Psychotherapy: The Legacy of Epictetus
by Windy Dryden Arthur StillThis book brings together the papers written by the authors over the last fifteen years on the historical and philosophical foundations of Albert Ellis' Rational Psychotherapy (later Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, REBT) and its relationship to Stoicism, especially the later practical form represented by Epictetus. It goes beneath the well known similarities between Stoic "spiritual exercises" and modern psychotherapy, to look at the cause of these similarities. These lie in the conceptual continuities that connect the Stoics and other ancient philosophies with the modern cultural framework underlying psychotherapy.
Historical and Philosophical Foundations of Psychology
by Martin FarrellThis textbook connects the big ideas and key thinkers of psychology and philosophy in a clear and cohesive theoretical narrative. Students are led to understand the relations between different schools of thought, and to connect the various thinkers, theories and facts in psychology's history. Focusing on the major ideas that have reoccurred throughout history, such as the mind-body problem and the role of the mind in our experience, Martin Farrell shows how specific thinkers have explored the same ideas, but in different ways, leading to distinct schools of thought. The coherent narrative enables students to see the bigger picture, through which the historical and conceptual roots of psychology can be easily understood.

This book will be of interest to leadership and history scholars and advanced students in Leadership studies.
Historical Development of English Learning Motivation Research: Cases of Korea and Its Neighboring Countries in East Asia (English Language Education #21)
by Tae-Young KimThis book clarifies the fundamental difference between North America-based instrumental motivation and Korea (and East Asia)-specific competitive motivation by which the EFL learners’ excessive competition to be admitted to famous universities and to be hired at a large-scale conglomerate is the main source of L2 motivation. It enables readers to understand that EFL-learning motivation reflects unique sociohistorical contexts grounded in a specific region or country. This book in turn necessitates the need to develop EFL motivation theory and research tradition which are firmly based on East Asian values and culture.

Historical Justice and Memory
by Klaus Neumann Janna ThompsonHistorical Justice and Memory highlights the global movement for historical justice--acknowledging and redressing historic wrongs--as one of the most significant moral and social developments of our times. Such historic wrongs include acts of genocide, slavery, systems of apartheid, the systematic persecution of presumed enemies of the state, colonialism, and the oppression of or discrimination against ethnic or religious minorities. The historical justice movement has inspired the spread of truth and reconciliation processes around the world and has pushed governments to make reparations and apologies for past wrongs. It has changed the public understanding of justice and the role of memory. In this book, leading scholars in philosophy, history, political science, and semiotics offer new essays that discuss and assess these momentous global developments. They evaluate the strength and weaknesses of the movement, its accomplishments and failings, its philosophical assumptions and social preconditions, and its prospects for the future.
