While the disciplinary architecture of hospitals has long prevailed in psychiatry, many care teams now work in smaller structures, within communities. Ariane d'Hoop explores one of these places: Drawing on fieldwork in a psychiatric day center for teenagers, she traces how spatial arrangements matter in the care practice. From a corner in which one can withdraw, to a kitchen inviting to hang around, or displayed artworks that pique one's curiosity, caregivers use the material environment to stir up the slightest affinity from teenagers. This study thus expands our idea of what attachment is, and makes us more able to recognize the subtle dynamics between care, things, and spaces. With a preface by Jeannette Pols.

The very idea of mental illness is contested. Given its differences from physical illnesses, is it right to count it, and particular mental illnesses, as genuinely medical as opposed to moral matters? One debate concerns its value-ladenness, which has been used by anti-psychiatrists to argue that it does not exist. Recent attempts to define mental illness divide both on the presence of values and on their consequences. Philosophers and psychiatrists have explored the nature of the general kinds that mental illnesses might comprise, influenced by psychiatric taxonomies such as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual and the International Classification of Diseases, and the rise of a rival biological 'meta-taxonomy': the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC). The assumption that the concept of mental illness has a culturally invariant core has also been questioned. This Element serves as a guide to these contested debates.

This is a book about an online community of the Second Generation (2g), children of Holocaust survivors. But it is also about the First Generation, our parents, their experiences, and how those experiences affected us. "In the beginning there was Auschwitz", writes Second Generation author and literary critic Melvin J. Bukiet, reminding us how much of the where, when, and to whom we were born, had been determined by the Holocaust. "On the most literal level, their fathers would not have met their mothers if not for the huge dislocations that thrust the few remnants of European Jewry into contact with spouses they would never have otherwise encountered except for DP camps or in the twentieth-century Diaspora. The Second Generation's very existence is dependent on the whirlwind their parents barely escaped." The locus of this book is therefore the area of an equilateral triangle, created by the interaction of its three sides: The First Generation, the Second Generation, and the Holocaust.

Physiology of Sport and Exercise, Eighth Edition, introduces you to the fields of sport and exercise physiology. Our goal is to build on the knowledge that you developed during basic course work in human anatomy and physiology and to apply those principles in studying how the body (1) performs and responds to the added demands of an acute bout of exercise, and (2) adapts to repeated bouts of exercise, i.e., exercise training. The eighth edition of Physiology of Sport and Exercise maintains the previous edition's high standard for illustrations, photos, and medical artwork. In addition, the text is augmented with animations, audio, and video clips, provided online in the student web study guide and separately for instructors. The new edition also includes fully updated "Research Perspective" elements introduced in the last edition that highlight interesting current research. Each chapter in the book begins with a chapter outline with page numbers to help you locate material. Also noted in the chapter outline are the web study guide activities relating to each section of the chapter. Each chapter begins with a brief story that explores a real-world application of the concepts presented.

A lavishly illustrated guide to the magnum opus of the great seventeenth-century anatomist, master embalmer, artist, and collector of specimens. His combination of the religious and the scientific, the painstakingly accurate and the extravagantly fantastical, offers vivid testimony of an era in which science overlapped seamlessly with religion and art. Essays accompanying Ruysch's text and images consider such topics as the historical context of Ruysch's work, the paradox of an artist of death whose work engenders the illusion of life, the conservation of Ruysch's specimens, and the shifting ascendancies of romanticism and rationality in the natural sciences.

Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936) is famous for his Nobel Prize-winning studies of digestion and, especially, his investigations of conditional reflexes, through which he attempted to understand and ease the "torments" of human consciousness. Based on rich archival materials, this work provides a uniquely rich and readable introduction to his life and work. The book follows Pavlov from his youth as a provincial seminarian to his scientific studies, traumas, and professional success in the glittering capital of St. Petersburg through world war and two revolutions, international celebrity status, and his complex relationship with the Bolsheviks under Lenin and Stalin.

This book presents the basic concepts and facts relating to the developmental biology of animals. It is designed as a core text for undergraduate courses from the first to the fourth year, and also for first year graduate students. It is suitable for both biologically based and medically oriented courses. A basic knowledge of cell and molecular biology is assumed, but no prior knowledge of development, animal structure, or histology should be necessary For this, the fourth edition, the work has two authors.

This text tells the story of cells as the units of life in a colorful and student-friendly manner, taking an "essentials only" approach. By using the successful model of previously published "Short Courses," this text succeeds in conveying the key points without overburdening the reader with secondary information. The authors skillfully present concepts by illustrating them with clear diagrams and examples from current research. Special boxed sections focus on the importance of cell biology in medicine and industry today.

In this issue of Psychiatric Clinics, guest editors Drs. Manish K. Jha and Madhukar H. Trivedi bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Treatment-Resistant Depression. Treatment-resistant depression (TRD), when patients experience an inadequate response to standard treatment plans, is a relatively common occurrence in clinical practice. In this issue, top experts shed light on this difficult-to-treat disorder, helping healthcare professionals improve outcomes for their patients with TRD. Contains 15 practice-oriented topics including overview of TRD; improving depression outcomes through measurement-based care; approach to diagnosis and treatment for difficult-to-treat depression; TRD in children and in the elderly; neuroimaging biomarkers of treatment-resistant depression; the role of psychedelics in TRD; and more.
