ISBN: 9781461406990 / Angielski / Twarda / 217 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Consumer-run organizations and other types of mental health self-help are becoming increasingly popular in the public mental health system.

International interest in these initiatives is also growing as self-help is flourishing in industrialized countries worldwide. I recently edited a special issue on mental health self-help for the...

ISBN: 9781412842648 / Angielski / Twarda / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This accessible volume sets an ambitious goal: to help people better understand the nature of mental illness.

Chase believes this perspective contributes to the stigma associated with mental illness, and argues for a different conceptual understanding. He describes and evaluates several...

The potential causes and consequences of these conditions, including maternal and paternal... To Freud, female sexuality remained something of a mystery: a riddle and a dark continent.

This wide-ranging work offers them hope for transcendence. Explores: Transcendence of Narcissism in Romance...
