Now in its second edition, An Introduction to Psychology for Health
Carers provides an accessible grounding for all nursing and health
care students who have little previous experience of studying
psychology, but who within their first year courses need to quickly
understand how psychological research and theory is invaluable in
interpreting, explaining and actively influencing clinical
practice. As a discipline, Psychology makes an important
contribution to health care practitioners' understanding of health
and health promotion, treatment, stress, pain, emotion, and
bereavement and loss. This engaging text introduces basic
psychological concepts and techniques and applies them directly to
nursing, encouraging all health care students to make the most of
their experiences in the practice environment, to learn from these,
and to become a reflective, psychologically-informed practitioner.

For readers of American Sniper, the stirring account of a life of
service by the "father of the US Navy SEALs" One month after the
Bay of Pigs fiasco, when President John F. Kennedy pressed Congress
about America's "urgent national needs," he named expanding US
special operations forces along with putting a man on the moon.
Captain William Hamilton was the officer tasked with creating the
finest unconventional warriors ever seen. Merging his own
experience commanding Navy Underwater Demolition Teams with
expertise from Army Special Forces and the CIA, and working with
his subordinate, Roy Boehm, he cast the mold for sea-, air-, and
land-dispatched night fighters capable of successfully completing
any mission anywhere in the world. Initially, they were used as a
counter to the potential devastation of nuclear war, and later for
counterterrorism and hostage rescue. His vision led to the
formation of the celebrated SEAL Team 6. In this stirring,
action-filled book, Hamilton tells his story for the first time.
Night Fighter is a trove of true adventure from the history of the
late twentieth century, which Hamilton lived, from fighter pilot in
the Korean War to operative for the CIA in Vietnam, Africa, Latin
America, and Europe, from the Pentagon to Foggy Bottom, and from
the Cuban Missile Crisis to the Reagan White House's Star Wars.
Like American Sniper, here is the record of a life devoted to
patriotic service. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade
imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers
interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich,
Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the
American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings,
ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more. While
not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a
national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are
sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise
find a home.
