This book examines regulatory capacity beyond the nation state. It
suggests that we can only understand why EU agencies are able to
build EU regulatory capacity if we acknowledge that national
regulators provide their expertise, staff and resources to the
regulatory processes taking place in these EU bodies. This raises
the puzzle of why national regulators are willing to provide 'life
support' to potentially rival organisations. The book is devoted to
answering this question in order to understand how EU regulatory
capacity is created in the absence of a full supranational
regulatory bureaucracy. To do so, the book studies to what extent
national regulators from two countries (the UK and Germany) support
EU agencies in their work across four policy sectors (drug safety,
food safety, maritime safety and banking supervision). The book
makes a significant contribution by developing a bureaucratic
politics perspective that highlights the importance of national
regulators for EU regulatory capacity building.

This book, written and edited by leading experts from around the
world, looks critically at how culture impacts on the way
posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and related disorders are
diagnosed and treated. There have been important advances in
clinical treatment and research on PTSD, partly as a result of
researchers and clinicians increasingly taking into account how
"culture matters." For mental health professionals who strive to
respond to the needs of people from diverse cultures who have
experienced traumatic events, this book is invaluable. It presents
recent research and practical approaches on key topics, including:
* How culture shapes mental health and recovery * How to integrate
culture and context into PTSD theory * How trauma-related distress
is experienced and expressed in different cultures, reflecting
local values, idioms, and metaphors * How to integrate cultural
dimensions into psychological interventions Providing new
theoretical insights as well as practical advice, it will be of
interest to clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and other health
professionals, as well as researchers and students engaged with
mental health issues, both globally and locally.
