    • Systems Medicine: Physiological Circuits and the Dynamics of Disease (Chapman & Hall/CRC Computational Biology Series)

      Why do we get certain diseases, whereas other diseases do not exist?

      In this book, Alon, one of the founders of systems biology, builds a foundation for systems medicine.

      Starting from basic laws, the book derives why physiological circuits are built the way they are. The circuits have fragilities that explain specific diseases and offer new strategies to treat them.

      By the end, the reader will be able to use simple and powerful mathematical models to describe physiological circuits. The book explores, in three parts, hormone circuits, immune circuits, and aging and age-related disease. It culminates in a periodic table of diseases.

      Alon writes in a style accessible to a broad range of readers – undergraduates, graduates, or researchers from computational or biological backgrounds. The level of math is friendly and the math can even be bypassed altogether. For instructors and readers who want to go deeper, the book includes dozens of exercises that have been rigorously tested in the classroom

    • Gambling Disorder: A Clinical Guide to Treatment, Second Edition

      Gambling Disorder: A Clinical Guide to Treatment is a systematic, eloquent, and exhaustive examination of the etiology, psychopathology, neurobiology, and treatment of the disorder, which was reclassified for DSM-5. Building on its 2004 predecessor, Pathological Gambling, which was groundbreaking for its era, the second edition has been thoroughly restructured and is designed to prepare clinicians to diagnose, treat, and―most important of all―understand their patients with the disorder. More common than previously supposed, gambling disorder is associated with decreased self-esteem, comorbid substance use disorders, financial and legal difficulties, relationship and family stress, and suicidality. Yet, many clinicians are unaware of the personal and social consequences of this disorder, as well as its implications for public health. Accordingly, the book provides a detailed look at the effects of gambling on societal, familial, and individual health and well-being and prepares clinicians to accurately assess their patients and provide effective treatments. As befits a field that has been the recent focus of so much innovative and promising research, the new edition boasts a fresh roster of contributors, each of whom bring special insight to their areas of expertise. Noteworthy topics include: • Currently available screening and assessment instruments for diagnosing gambling disorder and monitoring symptom change are discussed in-depth, including psychometric properties, norms, administration methods, and scoring and interpretation of each instrument. • Online gambling and gambling-gaming convergence is considered in a new chapter, which explores the complex interplay between gambling and technology. Highlighted issues include the growth of interactive platforms, role of new player experiences and reward structures, tailoring of products to individuals, and integration into other online activities, such as gaming and social media.• Gender differences in epidemiology, phenomenology, psychiatric comorbidity, and biology have been identified among patients with gambling disorder, with important treatment implications. Similarly, older adults and young people can exhibit significant differences in behavior. These are explored in separate, clinically rich, chapters.• The always evolving field of gambling and criminal/legal issues is explored in a chapter on forensic issues in gambling, which examines the relationship of gambling disorder to antisocial personality disorder and domestic abuse, and looks at the interface between gambling and the legal system.• Tremendous advances in the treatment of gambling disorder have been made since the last edition, and these are reflected in comprehensive chapters on psychosocial and pharmacological treatments. Full of expert clinical knowledge and cutting-edge research, Gambling Disorder: A Clinical Guide to Treatment is the clinician’s comprehensive guide to helping patients with gambling disorder find relief from this disabling disorder.

      For thousands of years — indeed, for all of human history except for the past 50 to 70 years in Western societies — plants have been our chief source of medicine. The fascinating story that unfolds in the pages of this book is much more than a catalog of natural cures. Equal parts scientific inquiry and cultural history, it’s nothing less than a chronicle of the healer’s art as it evolved from folk remedies to modern science. It’s also an account of humanity’s continuing quest to discover new medicines and to unravel the complex and often deeply mysterious interactions between the biochemistry of plants and the human body. From the doctor-philosophers of classical antiquity to the shamans of today’s rain forests, healers have prescribed a multitude of cures culled from the flora around them, and in many societies these ancient treatments are still in everyday use. In India, for example, Ayurvedic physicians continue a tradition first codified in written form many centuries before the birth of Christ. The origins of Chinese medicine are similarly shrouded in myth, but its effectiveness has been proved time and time again although the reasons why frequently remain elusive. And in many cases, Western medicine has been too quick to reject as “old wives’ tales” the lessons learned and refined over countless generations. In Nature’s Medicine you’ll learn how a malaria-stricken Spanish countess was cured by the bark of a Peruvian tree, the source of what we now call quinine, and how 18th-century doctors used digitalis for all sorts of ills — but, ironically, not for heart disease. You’ll discover that few natural compounds have been used as the basis for modern pharmaceutical drugs but that many have served as molecular templates for proprietary synthetic formulas. And you’ll see how ancient theories based on different views of the human body can lead to surprisingly effective medicines. Featuring some 200 full-color photographs, period illustrations from old medical texts, and watercolors illustrating a catalog of 102 healing herbs, Nature’s Medicine is at once a vivid historical chronicle, a valuable compendium of healers’ lore, and a revealing excursion into the world of plants whose power to cure has been known for millennia but is only beginning to be understood.

Sample programmes and clinical examples help the reader to understand the application of this approach across a variety of sports.

      The techniques and philosophy within the book have been applied with international-level athletes in disciplines as diverse as swimming, badminton, gymnastics, karate, cycling, weight lifting, basketball, athletics, snow sports, football, golf, equestrian sports and tennis. However, they have been applied equally effectively by people of all ages and ability levels as they come to understand their bodies and learn to work with them systematically from sound foundations.

    • The Best Minds: A Story of Friendship, Madness, and the Tragedy of Good Intentions

      04

      ‘Extraordinary… Magisterial… A remarkable meditation on friendship, success, madness and violence that refuses to oversimplify’ Guardian (Book of the Day)
      ‘The darkest of literary triumphs, and the most gripping of unbearable reads’ Telegraph (5 stars)

      A novelist’s gripping investigation of the forces that led his childhood best friend from academic stardom to the psychiatric hospital where he has lived since killing the woman he loved

      When the Rosens moved to New Rochelle, New York in 1973, Jonathan Rosen and Michael Laudor became inseparable. Both children of professors, the boys were best friends and fierce rivals who soon followed each other to Yale University.

      Michael blazed through Yale in three years, graduating summa cum laude and landing a top-flight consulting job. Then one day, Jonathan received a devastating call: Michael had suffered a psychotic break and was in the locked ward of a psychiatric hospital.

      Diagnosed with schizophrenia, Michael was still in hospital when he learned he’d been accepted to Yale Law School, and living in a halfway house when he decided, against all odds, to enroll. Still battling delusions, he managed to graduate, and after his triumphant story was featured in The New York Times, sold a memoir for a vast sum. Ron Howard bought film rights, completing the dream for Michael and his tirelessly supportive girlfriend Carrie, and Brad Pitt was set to star. But then Michael, in the grip of psychosis, committed a horrific act that made him a front-page story of an entirely different sort.

      The Best Minds is Jonathan Rosen’s powerful account of an American tragedy, set in the final decades of the American century, an era that coincided with the emptying out of state mental hospitals. It is a story about the bonds of friendship, the price of delusion and the mystery of identity. Tender, funny, and harrowing by turns, The Best Minds is both a beautifully rendered coming of age story and an indictment of the profound neglect of mental illness in our society.

    • Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession: a practical guide to trauma, burnout and collective care

      02

      Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession is a practical guide to trauma, burnout and collective care. Using case studies from lawyers in their own words, it provides the individual with tools for self-reflection and provides organisations with an understanding of trauma-informed working practices and guidance towards implementing collective care, training and support in the workplace.

      Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession is essential reading for social justice lawyers across many areas of law and should be required reading for organisational leaders, HR managers, practice managers, representational and membership associations and those in charge of regulation of the professions.

      Lawyers working in legal aid, social justice or with survivors of injury regularly work with traumatic and emotionally potent caseloads and often draw on skills for which they have had no formal training. They bear witness to the pain of clients, to the suffering that humans inflict upon each other, and to the incredible strength of survivors of violence, torture and abuse. They do this while dealing with the financial pressure of poor rates of pay, constantly overstretched resources and a relentlessly hostile political environment.

      While there has been a growing conversation within the legal profession about the mental health of lawyers, much of it looks at mental health as a primarily personal issue: the individual s work/life balance and stress as a personal response. Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession draws focus to the impact of traumatic casework for lawyers and how collectively change can be made.

    • A Therapist’s Guide to Treating Eating Disorders in a Social Media Age

      All humans need space to think, to be and to process without constant distraction. This is especially true of adolescents and young adults, for whom identity formation is a consuming task. Social media has generated both a place for the creation of identity and an audience. But constant connection leaves little space without intrusion from others. For those with body dissatisfaction and/or eating disorders, living in today’s world can be especially challenging, and viewing images on social media and other online formats can be devastating. Shauna Frisbie utilises phototherapy techniques to view client-selected images (whether they be of themselves or others) to help uncover underlying messages that are impacting their relationship to their bodies. Integrating concepts of healing narratives, neuroscience and phototherapy, this book will help any therapist promote self-compassion, self-reflection and healing in their clients.

    • Counselling, Class and Politics: Undeclared influences in therapy

      Anne’s motivation for writing Counselling, Class and Politics back in 1996, was `to persuade readers to the view that politics and political ideas matter in counselling’. This new edition of the work contains a wide range of commentaries from practioners working in the world of counselling today, who all argue that Anne’s message is as relevant now as it has always been. So too is the driving belief of the author that counselling training, regulation and awareness in general too often fails to acknowledge the political environment that practitioners and their clients inhabit, and its influence on the counselling relationship. Anne’s book, accessible, unashamedly unapologetic and searching in the questions it asks of readers, is still a vibrant, challenging text for any student, practitioner or trainer today.

    • Managing your Mental Health during your PhD: A Survival Guide

      07

      This book explores the PhD experience as never before and provides a “survival guide” for current and prospective PhD students. The book investigates why mental health issues are so common among the postgraduate population, going beyond the statistics, looking at lived experience of both the author and as well as current PhD students, who have found balancing mental wellness with the PhD endeavour challenging.

      The author discusses tips and tricks she wished she had known at the start of her PhD process for managing mental health, such as managing imposter feelings, prioritising workload, and self-care strategies to help others throughout their own journey.

      The book goes beyond typical mental health discussions (where the focus for improving mental health is placed on PhD students to become “more resilient”) and explores some of the often unspoken environmental factors that can impact mental health. These include the PhD student-supervisor relationship, the pressure to publish, and deep systemic problems in academia, such as racism, bullying and harassment.

      Finally, the book is a call to action, providing tangible improvements from the author’s perspective that university institutions can make to ensure that academia is a place for all to thrive.

    • No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma & Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model

      ‘Innovative and transformational’ – Gabor Maté
      ‘Changed my life’ – Rangan Chatterjee

      The empowering new way to discover your multifaceted mind.

      Do you long to break free from a stuck part of you – the inner critic, ‘monkey mind’, a bad habit or an addiction? What if there was a way to approach those aspects of you, to free you from the constant inner struggle and find true healing?

      In this groundbreaking international bestseller, Dr Richard Schwartz reveals that we are each born with an ‘internal family’ of distinct parts within us. Some of our parts can become trapped in destructive patterns, but learning to relate to each of them with curiosity, respect and empathy can vastly expand our capacity to heal.

      The Internal Family Systems (IFS) model will help you challenge the destructive behaviour of these parts, turn the ego, the inner critic and the saboteur into powerful allies, and allow you to return to a more whole and harmonious ‘Self’.

    • Borderline Personality Disorder For Dummies, 2nd Edition

      01

      Get to know the ins and outs of BPD―and make the choice to change!

      Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is an extremely serious―and often seriously neglected―condition. Despite around 4 million diagnoses in the USA, BPD has attracted lower funding and levels of clinical concern than more “popular” conditions such as bipolar disorder.

      BPD impacts the way you think and feel about yourself and others and can cause long-term patterns of disruptive relationships and difficulties with self-control. It often results from childhood abuse or neglect, as well as from genetic or brain abnormalities―particularly in areas of the brain that regulate emotion, impulsivity, and aggression. Knowing how it works means we know how to manage it, and Borderline Personality Disorder For Dummies―written in a friendly, easy-to-follow style by two leading clinical psychologists―is packed with useful techniques to do just that: from identifying triggers to finding the right care provider.

      • Get a compassionate, actionable understanding of the symptoms and history of BPD
      • Acquire techniques to identify and halt damaging behaviors
      • Evaluate providers and the latest therapies and treatments
      • Set goals and habits to overcome problems step-by-step

      BPD should never be allowed to dictate anyone’s existence. This reference gives you the tools to take your life back and is a must-have for sufferers and their loved ones alike.

      *SHORTLISTED for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award 2023*

      *A WATERSTONES BEST SPORTS BOOK OF 2023*

      *FOREWORD BY SIR CLIVE WOODWARD*

      ‘There is a real sense of mission in his voice – and vitriol for those who held back the sport for so long’ The Observer

      The definitive account of sport’s concussion crisis, how its ‘dirty secret’ was finally made public and what rugby union must now do to save itself.

      ‘Peters’ work is in the greatest tradition of British journalism: fearless, unstoppable and committed to righting a profound wrong.’ DAN SNOW

      ‘Sam Peters has fought a truly magnificent campaign on concussion in rugby . . . sport will be safer because of it.’ STEPHEN JONES

      By recounting the untold story of the most influential sports campaign in British newspaper history, which turned concussion in professional rugby from a niche issue into front and back page news, Concussed poses the questions all sports lovers need answering as evidence grows linking sports-related concussions to premature deaths and dementia.

      Expanding his research from rugby to football, NFL and other contact sports, Sam Peters brings an unparalleled breadth of experience, depth of knowledge and journalistic rigour to a subject he has written about and campaigned over for a decade.

      Now sport’s ‘dirty secret’ is out in the open, Peters asks: how can rugby and other sports save themselves from the vested interests which threaten their very existence?

    • Break the Cycle: A Guide to Healing Intergenerational Trauma

      How to pass on strength not pain to those you love.

      When a physical wound is left unhealed, it continues to cause pain and can infect the whole body. When emotions are left unhealed, they similarly cause harm that spreads to other parts of our lives, hurting our family, friends and colleagues. Eventually, this hurt spreads further, affecting entire communities and families across generations.

      This is intergenerational trauma. It can lead us to become people-pleasers, co-dependent in relationships and even estranged from our families. The wounds are complex and continue to invade our minds, bodies and spirits long after.

      In Break the Cycle, Dr Mariel Buqué delivers the ground-breaking guide to healing inherited trauma. Weaving scientific research with practical exercises and stories from her therapy room, Dr Buqué will help you understand how trauma is inherited from one generation to the next, break the cycle and disrupt the flow of intergenerational trauma with therapeutic exercises, and encourage you to pass on strength – not pain – to future generations.

      With a holistic approach to healing that has been absent from the field of psychology for too long, Break the Cycle will help you shift intergenerational trauma to intergenerational abundance.
