Zustand: Sehr gut | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: B�cher | The family plays a central role in the mental health of children. This study of the family in relation to child development and dysfunction explores whether there are critical family characteristics that are reliably predictive of childhood dysfunction - and whether these characteristics can be modified by family therapy. The author places specific types of dysfunction such as depression, conduct problems and anxiety in the context of family influences, and details issues of identification, assessment and treatment of childhood dysfunction in relation to family processes.

About this title

Synopsis

This unique volume takes a comprehensive approach to child and family mental health by examining the many ways in which family plays a central role in the health and/or dysfunction of the child. Rich in its coverage, this book begins with a presentation of the historical underpinnings of the study of the family′s relation to child development and dysfunction. It details issues related to identification, assessment, and treatment of child dysfunction in relation to family processes and offers alternative conceptual views of the family, and critical features of family life and how they operate. Specific types of dysfunction, such as depression, conduct problems, and anxiety, are presented to convey the ways in which family influences can operate. "I can strongly recommend this book as a good general introduction to thinking about the development of child mental health and how this might relate to the context of family. It would be a handy text for trainees, since it fits easily into a large pocket or small briefcase. --ACPP Review and Newsletter "This is a useful and enjoyable book which provides a clear and thoughtful grounding in the field for the novice and a selection of more ′cutting-edge′ material for the specialist." --Frances Gardner in British Journal

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
