Dementia

~~65,15€~~ 58,64€ 10% OFF

 Adults 65 and older are the fastest growing segment of the population worldwide, which means there will be more people living with mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Written at a resident level, the Primer on Dementia provides early career professionals with the information necessary to care for the often complex clinical presentations of people with age-associated neurocognitive disorders. This book is organized into three sections: (1) core concepts, (2) dementia syndromes, and (3) disease management. The chapters in section one focus on clinical knowledge and skills applicable across all dementias, including the diagnostic interview and neurologic examination, frequently used cognitive screening measures, neuropsychological assessment, neuroimaging, and differential diagnosis. Chapters in section two review the most common dementia syndromes and cover epidemiology, neuropathology, biomarkers, genetics, and clinical signs and symptoms, providing at least one illustrative case. The final section presents the latest evidence-based interventions from risk management to pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic approaches, while also addressing safety considerations, legal issues, palliative and advanced care planning, and attending to caregivers.

Borderline Personality Disorder

66,24€ + 10% CARD

 Over the past decade, there has been a burgeoning of interest in understanding and treating borderline personality disorder, a disorder characterized by extreme emotional reactivity, impulsivity and serious interpersonal difficulties resulting in frequent loss of relationships. Individuals with borderline personality disorder comprise a substantial proportion of the psychiatric outpatient population, are often seen in emergency rooms and have major functional impairment (e.g. unemployment). Suicide occurs in 3-9% of the population. Furthermore, non-suicidal self injury (e.g. cutting without the intent to die), eating disorders and substance abuse are frequently seen in the context of borderline personality disorder. Not only do the individuals with the disorder suffer , their family members also experience distress and can feel burdened and overwhelmed. Once thought to be nonexistent or a ''grab bag'' diagnosis, borderline personality disorder is now understood as a significant emotional disorder with its own neurobiological and psychosocial correlates. At the same time, the disorder is still poorly understood and stigmatized with limited resources available to the novice clinician and mental health professional trainees (e.g. psychiatry residents, psychology doctoral students, social work students). The aim of this primer on borderline personality disorder is to fill this void and provide an accessible, easy-to-use , clinically-oriented, evidenced-based guide for early stage clinicians. We present the most up to data about borderline personality disorder by leading experts in the field in a format accessible to trainees and professionals working with individuals with borderline personality disorder and their family members. The volume is comprehensive and covers the etiology of BPD, its clinical presentation and co-morbid disorders, genetics and neurobiology of BPD, effective treatment of BPD, the role of advocacy and special subpopulations (e.g.forensic)in the clinical management of BPD.

Beyond Jihad - The Pacifist Tradition In West African Islam

OUT OF STOCK OR NOT AVAILABLE

 Over the course of the last 1400 years, Islam has grown from a small band of followers on the Arabian peninsula into a global religion of over a billion believers. How did this happen? The usual answer is that Islam spread by the sword-that believers waged jihad against rival tribes and kingdoms and forced them to convert. Lamin Sanneh argues that this is far from the case.
