Development and Treatment of PTSD
Robert W. Motta
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) remains a significant mental health challenge, with a broad range of causes and complex influencing factors beyond traditional war-related trauma. Despite advancements in understanding, there is still controversy surrounding the efficacy of various treatment approaches, including both conventional methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and non-traditional techniques such as yoga and psychoactive drugs. This complexity highlights the need for a comprehensive resource that not only updates professionals on the latest research but also addresses the diverse causes and manifestations of PTSD, including social, racial, and economic factors. Development and Treatment of PTSD offers a solution by providing up-to-date information, theories, and interventions for PTSD. Unlike many existing resources that focus narrowly on specific traumatic events, this book expands its scope to encompass a wide array of causes, triggers, and contributors to PTSD, including interpersonal dynamics and societal influences. This book is essential for psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, counselors, medical personnel involved in trauma care, and professionals working in clinical and school settings.

Perspectives on Career Transitioning of Students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Boitumelo M. Diale
Students with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) face intricate challenges when it comes to transitioning into careers. The nuances of conditions such as autism spectrum disorders, hearing impairments, visual impairments, ADHD, and specific learning disabilities demand a comprehensive understanding. Existing knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions about career transitioning for these students often lack depth, leading to gaps in support systems. Educational and policy issues further compound the difficulties, hindering the seamless integration of individuals with NDDs into the workforce. Barriers persist, and the need for effective solutions is urgent. Perspectives on Career Transitioning of Students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a meticulously researched and thoughtfully crafted book on career transitioning for students with NDDs. Developed through an extensive research project, this book, a product of the Global Excellence and Stature (GES) 4.0 Research Fellowship, provides a multifaceted exploration of the challenges faced by these students. The book employs a discursive analysis approach to delve into theories, methods, policy issues, intervention studies, practice guidelines, institutional supports, validation studies, career counseling models, and barriers to career transition. Each chapter focuses on a specific NDD, offering tailored insights and strategies.

Alterity
Jean-Michel Oughourlian
Through the lens of mimetic theory, distinguished French psychiatrist Jean-Michel Oughourlian shows how to spot and address rivalry in our lives and become open to healthier, more genuine relationships. This important study demonstrates the toxic and pathogenic mechanisms at work in physical ailments and mental disturbances and reveals a common cause: alterity, the other. Discord with others becomes visible through generalized stress, which manifests in psychosomatic symptoms and may even contribute to the development of organic diseases. To heal, the first and most important remedy is recognizing the other with whom we are in rivalry.

New Developments in Diagnosing, Assessing, and Treating ADHD
Rejani Thudalikunnil Gopalan
It seems as though each day more children are diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). ADHD causes challenges not only for the patient but also for their parents, siblings, teachers, and other significant people in their lives. They have an increased vulnerability to addiction and crime. Controversially, stimulants are the primary choice for treatment of ADHD in medical management, and the side effects of this long-term pharmacological management has raised many questions. Psychosocial management including parent training, behavior therapy, and educational inputs are also major components of treatment and should not be ignored. Thus, it is vital to explore the latest best practices for the diagnosis, assessment, and management of ADHD. New Developments in Diagnosing, Assessing, and Treating ADHD is a collection of research on innovations in the management of ADHD. While highlighting topics including adolescent care, neurological disorders, and mental health, this book is ideally designed for academicians, clinicians (especially psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, and pediatricians), social workers, psychiatric nurses, rehabilitation centers, researchers, and students interested in the handling of this disorder and the long-term effects and social risk factors associated with treatment.

Biopsychosocial Perspectives and Practices for Addressing Communicable and Non-Communicable Diseases
Simon George Taukeni
While there are a number of clinical practices for treating a variety of diseases, there is an urgent need to integrate bio-psychosocial perspectives and practices in order to promote comprehensive healthcare. Current research reports that diseases such as HIV/AIDS, malaria, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and heart diseases are a growing threat to the heath and quality of life of individuals across the globe. Considering that nearly all these diseases are directly related to the lifestyle of an individual, prevention and intervention should be devised to address psychological, emotional, social, and spiritual factors. Biopsychosocial Perspectives and Practices for Addressing Communicable and Non-Communicable Diseases is a collection of theoretical research that promotes good health and quality of life through psychosocial interventions to address psychosocial problems facing individuals such as discrimination and stigma, stress, depression, alcohol and drug abuse, smoking, lack of physical activity, and many other socio-economic factors. While highlighting topics including mental health, traditional healthcare, and global health, this book is ideally designed for therapists, counselors, psychologists, medical professionals, hospital administrators, researchers, academicians, and students in fields that include public health, nursing, community-based healthcare, health psychology, HIV/AIDS education, human movement education, and sport psychology.
