This book addresses how best to meet everyday challenges. The
author focuses on how to think and act differently about what we do
as we face challenges, and how to assess each situation as one of
challenge rather than threat or harm because we have the strategies
to cope. Spanning eleven chapters, the book examines the best ways
to provide the core skills for life, to children, adolescents and
adults, and how that is best achieved through the contemporary
theories of coping. Coping has traditionally been defined in terms
of reaction; that is, how people respond after or during a
stressful event. More recently, coping is being defined more
broadly to include anticipatory, preventive and proactive coping.
This book provides case studies of resilient adults in a range of
settings, highlighting how coping resources have helped them to
overcome adversity. Researchers, students of psychology and social
work, practitioners and those interested in the self-help field
will find this book invaluable.
