Despite the effectiveness of medication in reducing symptoms in people who have experienced a first episode of psychosis, persistent functional impairments are common, and are associated with an increased risk for relapse and a poor long-term prognosis. Adjunctive psychosocial interventions are needed to address these functional impairments and to assist with improving illness self-management and psychological adjustment. The Graduated Recovery Intervention Program (GRIP) is a novel cognitive-behavioral therapy program designed to facilitate symptomatic and functional recovery in people who have experienced an initial episode of psychotic illness. Above all else, GRIP aims to help people to develop increased self- efficacy and hope, and to move forward by setting and achieving personally meaningful goals. In this book, the treatment development process of GRIP is described. An overview of the treatment approach, including specific treatment phases and prescribed interventions, is provided. Finally, data from an open feasibility trial of this intervention are presented.

In this scholarly presentation, Dr. Penn invites the reader of this significant research on a historical pilgrimage back to the early portion of the nineteenth century, in order to revisit the lineage and inception of the George-Kennedy-Anderson-Cathey family of African descent. According to the author, "It is incumbent upon those of us today who are surrogates of their sacrifices, to remember the toil, the tears, the long-suffering and labor which has been given on our behalf by this esteemed 'Collective' which had its early beginning in the 'slave state' of Tennessee. It is without question a legacy of fortitude and unfaltering faith that we should never forget."

Dystopia, from the Greek dus and topos "bad place," is a revelatory genre and concept that has experienced a meteoric rise in popularity at the start of the twenty-first century. This book addresses approaches to the study of dystopia from the academic fields of theology and religious studies. Following a co-written chapter where Scott Donahue-Martens and Brandon Simonson argue that dystopia can be understood as demythologized apocalyptic, ten unique contributions each engage a work of popular culture, such as a book, movie, or television show. Topics across chapters range from the critical function of dystopia, social location and identity, violence, apocalypse and the end of everything, sacrifice, catharsis, and dystopian existentialism. This volume responds to the need for theological and religious reflection on dystopia in a world increasingly threatened by climate change, pandemics, and global war.
