Animal-Assisted Brief Therapy - Terri Pichot - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Animal-Assisted Brief Therapy - Terri Pichot - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book provides an overview of Animal-Assisted Activities (AAA) and Animal-Assisted Therapy (AAT) and demonstrates how they can be incorporated into solution-focused treatment programs. Pichot, focusing on the use of therapy dogs, starts with a discussion of the basics of AAA/T and solution-focused therapy, as well as what every practitioner should know about dogs before partnering with them. Successfully combining all of this into an effective treatment program is considered next. Pichot draws upon her own experience developing an AAA/T program in the substance abuse counseling program at a county public health agency to illustrate the effective implementation of such a program and the struggles and lessons learned in doing so. Using AAA/T with special populations, cultural considerations, and the impact a therapy dog can have on the handler. New in this edition are client scenarios that demonstrate the therapist’s thought process when making clinical decisions about when and how to use a therapy dog. Sample forms and treatment plans are also provided that professionals can use to modify or structure in their work with clients. The concepts and information provided in this valuable guide will be helpful for any therapist regardless of whether he or she is in private practice or working in an agency setting.

Breaking Out of the Games Industry - Matthew M. White - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

Breaking Out of the Games Industry - Matthew M. White - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

This book offers a perspective into a phenomenon becoming more and more common: AAA developers ‘going indie’. Written through the personal story of the author finding his way into the AAA games space, only to retreat back to indie games and consulting work and finding a new-old life making games for himself, and finding fulfillment in doing so. It is both a word of warning to creatives seeking a corporation and a call for disillusioned developers to break free and do something wild, creative, and unexpected. It is critical of common industry issues such as structural crunch, health issues, work life balance, and more, but is also a personal story of mismatched needs in doing creative work. Key Features Under-explored viewpoint of the games industry, someone who worked for years to ‘break in’, then worked for years to ‘break out’. Offers a unique look at making an indie game life both financially and mentally feasible. Encourages developers sitting on the fence to take the plunge.

Expanding American Anthropology, 1945-1980 - - Bog - The University of Alabama Press - Plusbog.dk

Expanding American Anthropology, 1945-1980 - - Bog - The University of Alabama Press - Plusbog.dk

Expanding American Anthropology, 1945–1980: A Generation Reflects takes an inside look at American anthropology’s participation in the enormous expansion of the social sciences after World War II. During this time the discipline of anthropology itself came of age, expanding into diverse subfields, frequently on the initiative of individual practitioners. The Association of Senior Anthropologists of the American Anthropological Association (AAA) called upon a number of its leaders to give accounts of their particular innovations in the discipline. This volume is the result of the AAA venture—a set of primary documents on the history of American anthropology at a critical juncture. In preparing the volume, the editors endeavoured to maintain the feeling of “oral history” within the chapters and to preserve the individual voices of the contributors. There are many books on the history of anthropology, but few that include personal essays from such a broad swath of different perspectives. The passing of time will make this volume increasingly valuable in understanding the development of American anthropology from a small discipline to the profession of over ten thousand practitioners.

The Image of God in the Garden of Eden - Catherine L. Mcdowell - Bog - Pennsylvania State University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Image of God in the Garden of Eden - Catherine L. Mcdowell - Bog - Pennsylvania State University Press - Plusbog.dk

Catherine McDowell presents a detailed and insightful analysis of the creation of adam in Gen 2:5–3:24 in light of the Mesopotamian mis pî pit pî (“washing of the mouth, opening of the mouth”) and the Egyptian wpt-r (opening of the mouth) rituals for the creation of a divine image. Parallels between the mouth washing and opening rituals and the Eden story suggest that the biblical author was comparing and contrasting human creation with the ritual creation, animation, and installation of a cult statue in order to redefine ?elem ?elohîm as a human being—the living likeness of God tending and serving in the sacred garden. McDowell also considers the explicit image and likeness language in Gen 1:26–27. Drawing from biblical and extrabiblical texts, she demonstrates that ?elem and demût define the divine-human relationship, first and foremost, in terms of kinship. To be created in the image and likeness of Elohim was to be, metaphorically speaking, God’s royal sons and daughters. While these royal qualities are explicit in Gen 1, McDowell persuasively argues that kinship is the primary metaphor Gen 1 uses to define humanity and its relationship to God. Further, she discusses critical issues, noting the problems inherent in the traditional views on the dating and authorship of Gen 1–3, and the relationship between the two creation accounts. Through a careful study of the tôledôt in Genesis, she demonstrates that Gen 2:4 serves as both a hinge and a “telescope”: the creation of humanity in Gen 2:5–3:24 should be understood as a detailed account of the events of Day 6 in Gen 1. When Gen 1–3 are read together, as the final redactor intended, these texts redefine the divine-human relationship using three significant and theologically laden categories: kinship, kingship, and cult. Thus, they provide an important lens through which to view the relationship between God and humanity as presented in the rest of the Bible.

King Cottons Advocate - Lawrence J. Nelson - Bog - University of Tennessee Press - Plusbog.dk

King Cottons Advocate - Lawrence J. Nelson - Bog - University of Tennessee Press - Plusbog.dk

One of the largest cotton planters in the United States, Oscar G. Johnston of Mississippi (1880–1955) became King Cotton's most effective advocate during the New Deal era. In this biography, Lawrence J. Nelson explores Johnston's long career and the critical role he played in shaping public policy toward a vital but depressed industry. In 1927, the year of the Great Mississippi River Flood, Johnston became president of the largely British-owned Delta and Pine Land Company of Mississippi, a mammoth plantation that encompassed some 38,000 acres and employed thousands of black sharecroppers. During the Great Depression, Johnston helped formulate Agricultural Adjustment Administration (AAA) loans, assisted in organizing the Commodity Credit Corporation, and traveled abroad for President Franklin Roosevelt to seek international cotton stabilization. He also developed and managed the federal Cotton Pool, which, in the mid-1930s, dispensed nearly two million bales of cotton at a profit to its farmer-members. Johnston's activities embroiled him in various controversies—over huge subsidies to his plantations, over the infamous "Section 7" debate that led to the so-called "purge" of AAA liberals in 1935, over the question of how best to limit cotton production, and, during World War II, over the collectivising efforts efforts of the Farm Security Administration. By then, Johnston had abandoned New Deal solutions and successfully organized the National Cotton Council of America, which united an industry threatened by low prices, internal division, and loss of exports. A revisionist work, King Cotton's Advocate in the New Deal challenges the monochromatic, demonized image of the southern planter in the twentieth century. Nelson portrays a successful businessman who ran a highly efficient, welfare-capitalist plantation that, by the time of Johnston's retirement in 1950, exemplified the transformation of the old mule-and-sharecrop system into a capital-intensive, mechanized agribusiness. The Author: Lawrence J. Nelson is professor of history at the University of North Alabama. His articles have appeared in the Journal of Southern History, Agricultural History, Missouri Historical Review, Alabama Review, Tennessee Historical Quarterly, and other publications."
