Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - BEYOND SHAME presents a comprehensive, compassionate model for thinking about addiction that harnesses the latest in scientific and clinical knowledge about the complex factors that contribute to the disease. The author, Jeff Georgi, offers an original theoretical framework as well as practical therapeutic strategies to show the multi-factorial nature of addictive disease as Having a biologic component: addiction is not just a brain disease even though the central nervous system and its limbic energy play critical roles in the illness.Triggered by psychological liability: when the needs of childhood are not met, an internalized sense of shame tied to the belief that 'I'm not good enough' can make people vulnerable to addiction.Reinforced by social context: We live in a culture that continues to stigmatize people who have addiction, and the cultural judgment further reinforces their disease.
