Natural Disasters and Risk Communication: Implications of the
Cascadia Subduction Zone Megaquake asks and addresses how we
communicate about natural disasters and what effect our
communication has on natural disaster education, understanding,
assessment of risk, preparation, and recovery. The chapters of this
book present expertise, analyses, and perspectives that are
designed to help us better comprehend and deal with the natural
risks such as the Cascadia Subduction Zone. It seeks to move past
primal, fear-induced physiological and emotional responses to
crises with the understanding that if we accept that the disaster
will occur, expect it, and learn how we can prepare, we can calm
the collective panicked beats of our hearts as we wait for its
first tremors.
In this text, Butler takes an in-depth look at the development of
family systems theory and how the work of Bowen, Gelso, and
Meissner has shaped family psychotherapy. Family systems theory
considers the family as an emotional unit in the therapeutic
process and examines the therapeutic relationship in terms of its
three primary components: the alliance,
transference/countertransference, and the real relationship-better
known as the tripartite model. Butler explores how the aspects
Bowen family systems theory can provide effective methods for
counseling families, couples, and individuals.

Family therapy has become a well-established treatment modality
across many mental health disciplines including clinical social
work, psychology, psychiatry, nursing, and counseling. This book
tells the story of how family therapy began based on the work of
one of the pioneers of family theory and therapy, Murray Bowen,
M.D. Bowen's psychiatric training began at the Menninger Foundation
in 1946. It was during the later part of his eight years at
Menninger's that he began his transition away from conventional
psychoanalytic theory and practice. Bowen left Menninger's in 1954
and began a historic family research program at the National
Institutes of Mental Health (NIMH) in Bethesda, Maryland. This
program, called the Family Study Program, involved hospitalizing
entire families on a specialized research ward. He was interested
in families with a child diagnosed with schizophrenia. There were
two central findings of Bowen's four year project. The first was
the concept that the family could be conceptualized and treated as
an emotional unit. The second, was family psychotherapy, which
began as staff-family daily meetings on the inpatient unit. The
findings of Bowen's project remain part of mainstream mental health
practice today. From that project, Bowen went on to develop his
well known eight interlocking theoretical concepts that continue to
be highly influential both in mental health and business. Bowen's
project also significantly transformed the therapeutic
relationship. The psychotherapist tried to achieve a balance when
working with the families by making emotional connections while
staying out of intense emotional reactions. They also worked
diligently to avoid psychologically replacing parents. This book
details the story of how these transformative changes came about by
highlighting the original papers of the project.

Improving the integrity of the food chain, making certain that food
is traceable, safe to eat, high quality and genuine requires new
diagnostic tools, the implementation of novel information systems
and input from all food chain participants. Food chain integrity
reviews key research in this fast-moving area and how it can be
applied to improve the provision of food to the consumer.
Chapters in part one review developments in food traceability, such
as food biotracing, and methods to prevent food bioterrorism.
Following this, part two focuses on developments in food safety and
quality management. Topics covered include advances in
understanding of pathogen behaviour, control of foodborne viruses,
hazard ranking and the role of animal feed in food safety. Chapters
in part three explore essential aspects of food authenticity, from
the traceability of genetically modified organisms in supply chains
to new methods to demonstrate food origin. Finally, part four
focuses on consumer views on food chain integrity and future
trends.
With its distinguished editors and expert team of contributors,
Food chain integrity is a key reference for all those tasked with
predicting and implementing actions to prevent breaches in the
integrity of food production.

More than 400 years ago William Gilbert said, "The Earth itself is
a great magnet." Today, we know that it is also a great magnetic
tape recorder. This work is a comprehensive, up-to-date textbook on
extracting and using rock and paleomagnetic data in archaeological,
geological, and geophysical applications. Designed for students and
professionals with knowledge of college level physics and some
background in earth sciences, it describes both the theory and the
practice of paleomagnetism, covering topics such as the basics of
magnetism, geomagnetic fields, how rocks become magnetized, and the
various ways of analyzing the magnetism of rocks. The book uses the
companion PmagPy software package. An appendix contains a brief
introduction to Python, an easy-to-use, cross-platform, and most
important, free programming environment in which PmagPy programs
are written.
