Parent-child dyad art therapy, in which parent and child share the
production of an artwork, is a new branch of art therapy. Its aim
is to reinforce or re-establish bonds between children and parents,
and it provides a space where parents' early unresolved conflicts
and children's developmental abilities can be expressed. This work
explores many aspects of dyad art therapy including attachment
relationship theories, the roles of parents and art therapists in
dyad interventions, the importance of the tactile experience, and
ways in which dyad art therapy could be used to treat other age
groups.
Printmaking can be useful to art therapists in a wide range of
settings, for example, the incremental process can be helpful in
groupwork. This book describes the therapeutic advantages of
printmaking and also describes its roots outside art therapy.
Gastric and Oesophageal Surgery serves as a detailed, evidence-
based guide to benign and malignant oesophageal and gastric
surgery, covering in a practical and accessible manner the myriad
surgical conditions that trainees and consultants in the area will
face. Whilst its compact size allows it great portability as a
'pocket guide', its succinct writing style gives the reader
excellent ease of reference and a thorough 'how-to' on all major
surgical processes. A comprehensive, highly topical evidence base
is supplemented by a wealth of expert advice, which is easily
accessed as practical tips within clearly laid out chapters. This
makes the book an ideal revision aid for the FRCS General Surgery
exit examinations, although its breadth and depth of coverage will
benefit new consultant surgeons as well as junior surgical
trainees. Highly illustrated with over 110 line drawings and
photographs, it is the ideal volume to refresh the memory and
consolidate knowledge in clinic or before surgery.
