Why We Need to Rethink Mental Health and Diagnosis

Applied Psychology in Motion

How to Increase Physical Activity and Reduce Sedentary Behaviour

Doolittle and Heim examine the complex interplay between modern medicine, religion, and spirituality. Medicine and religion share many concerns: suffering and illness, healing and well-being. The biological model of illness empowers medicine to bring dramatic improvements in physical health. At the same time, modern medicine often ignores the spiritual needs of patients and deeper challenges of holistic healing. In turn, religious institutions have always supported people through suffering, and often pioneer the delivery of health care to those in need. However, religious convictions sometimes conflict with medical perspectives; and some forms of religious belief and practice may be injurious to health. Each side can stereotype the other---medicine as sterile and unfeeling, religion as irrational and injurious. This book draws upon broad resources of Biblical theology, history, and contemporary thought to explore questions of faith, the role of the church, the lived experience of illness, and the modern practice of medicine. Designed for classroom use this title will enable students to: - Explore the Christian understanding of illness and healing as informed by the Gospels, the early church, medieval theology, and contemporary theologians - Addresses contemporary issues of illness, such as cancer, AIDS, addiction, and the pandemics through a theological lens - Explore how religious observance and spirituality are associated with beneficial health outcomes - Reconcile deep questions of illness and suffering through a deeper understanding of theology and modern medicine

Empowerment Self-Defense

From a necessary act of survival to some of the most disturbing crimes in history to its often sensationalized and misunderstood role in certain cultures, cannibalism remains a fascinating yet taboo topic. Cannibalism around the World features more than 100 reference entries that examine cannibalism from a myriad of perspectives. Readers will discover the important cultural, spiritual, and symbolic roles cannibalism has played around the globe, from the Catholic Eucharist to sacrificial cannibalism among the Aztecs to appease the gods to the practice of some Fijian peoples of consuming enemies killed in battle to absorb their strength. The encyclopedia examines well-known incidents of survival cannibalism, such as the ill-fated Donner Party and the starvation conditions of labor camps during World War II. Entries on high-profile criminal cannibals such as Jeffrey Dahmer are also included. The book also explores cannibalism in written and oral stories, such as the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel and the Native American myth of the Wendigo. Cannibalism's portrayal in pop culture is also discussed. Taken together, these entries offer readers a broad yet highly nuanced view of this controversial subject grounded in rigorous anthropological scholarship.

How Not to Die (Too Soon)

"The rising number of ADHD diagnoses, particularly among adults, is not only confirmed by medical studies and mainstream reporting but also the borne out across social media solidarity among people who'd been privately coping with persistent, often inexpressible challenges. Many of contributors to this edited volume can attest to how a later-in-life diagnosis radically demystified the patterns, impulses, and impasses that had impacted their lives and their writing. The essays collected in Chaos, Creativity, Completion reflect the ways in which these varied individuals-poets, novelists, memoirists, filmmakers, and others-have come to understand and embrace the relationship between their ADHD and their creative practices. The resulting pieces vary in form and tone, directness and indirectness, humor and seriousness. Some are analytical, some are reflective, and some are delightfully weird. Several may seem unfocused at first but soon coalesce into cohesive wholes; others adopt experimental formal structures that, for lack of a better word, just seem to work for the author. These differences and idiosyncrasies are precisely what brings these authors together: just as the experience of ADHD varies from person to person, so do the ways in which those experiences can be expressed. Chaos, Creativity, Completion is a kaleidoscopic, adventurous series of takes on what writing looks like today, no matter who you are or what you have"-- Provided by publisher.
