Today's children face a multitude of pressures, from the everyday
challenges of life to the increasing threats of poverty,
exploitation, and trauma. Central to growing up successfully is
learning to deal with stress, endure hardships, and thrive despite
adversity. Resilience - the ability to cope with and overcome
life's difficulties - is a quality that can potentially be nurtured
in all young people. The second edition of the Handbook of
Resilience in Children updates and expands on its original focus of
resilience in children who overcome adversity to include its
development in those not considered at risk, leading to better
outcomes for all children across the lifespan. Expert contributors
examine resilience in relation to environmental stressors, as a
phenomenon in child and adolescent disorders, and as a means toward
positive adaptation into adulthood. New and revised chapters
explore strategies for developing resilience in the family, the
therapist's office, and the school as well as its nurturance in
caregivers and teachers. Topics addressed include: Resilience in
maltreated children and adults. Resilience and self-control
impairment. Relational resilience in young and adolescent girls.
Asset-building as an essential component of treatment. Assessment
of social and emotional competencies related to resilience.
Building resilience through school bullying prevention programs.
Large-scale longitudinal studies on resilience. The second edition
of the Handbook of Resilience in Children is a must-have reference
for researchers, clinicians, allied practitioners and
professionals, and graduate students in school and clinical
psychology, education, pediatrics, psychiatry, social work, school
counseling, and public health.
