GROUP COUNSELING: STRATEGIES AND SKILLS, Eighth Edition, provides
an in-depth look at group counseling with an emphasis on practical
knowledge and techniques for effective group leadership. The
authors discuss the many facets of group counseling and provide
examples of how each skill can be applied in a wide range of group
settings to produce effective and efficient group sessions. The
book's active approach focuses on the skills necessary for starting
and ending a session, as well as on how to make the middle phase
productive and meaningful. Through its integration of traditional
theories and concepts of group process with thoughtful strategies
and specific skills, this reader-friendly book meets the needs of
practicing or future counselors, social workers, psychologists, and
others who are leading or preparing to lead groups in a variety of
settings.
During the past five years there has been a reawakening of interest
in the psychotherapy of patients with medical disorders
characterized as psychosomatic. For three decades, psychoanalysis
and psychoanalytic psychotherapy were used extensively to treat and
study psychosomatic disorders. Early in the 1960s, interest in this
approach to these conditions faded, and the .Psychosomatic Service.
in most hospitals became the .Consultation Liaison Service.
(Lipowski, 1967). The recent focus of biofeedback on psychosomatic
conditions provides a new technique with which the physician or
psychiatrist may treat these patients (Rickles, 1981). In addition,
the successful application of biofeedback training to a variety of
complaints such as those presented in this volume has heralded the
addition of biofeedback to the treatment modalities used for
medical complaints. Frequently, psychological factors can still be
seen; for example, when biofeedback treatment may require lifestyle
changes on the part of the patient, the exploration of secondary
gains or resistances before the disorder can be success fully
treated, and the establishment of rapport and empathy which is so
important for truly effective biofeedback training. Aside from
certain psychological dimensions that are always present in biofeed
back training, in this case biofeedback is being used in a
primarily medical setting for primarily medical complaints."

A compilation of poetry from childhood to adulthood this book spans
fifteen years of work. Within these pages is an exciting journey of
life's up's and down's and the growth of a writer. It is also a
symbol of a life long goal accomplished and the beginning of a new
journey.
Public opinion polls are everywhere. Journalists report their
results without hesitation, and political activists of all kinds
spend millions of dollars on them, fueling the widespread
assumption that elected officials "pander" to public opinion--that
they tailor their policy decisions to the results of polls.
In this provocative and engagingly written book, the authors argue
that the reality is quite the opposite. In fact, when not facing
election, contemporary presidents and members of Congress routinely
ignore the public's policy preferences and follow their own
political philosophies, as well as those of their party's
activists, their contributors, and their interest group allies.
Politicians devote substantial time, effort, and money to tracking
public opinion, not for the purposes of policymaking, but to change
public opinion--to determine how to craft their public statements
and actions to win support for the policies they and their
supporters want.
Taking two recent, dramatic episodes--President Clinton's failed
health care reform campaign, and Newt Gingrich's "Contract with
America"--as examples, the authors show how both used public
opinion research and the media to change the public's mind. Such
orchestrated displays help explain the media's preoccupation with
political conflict and strategy and, the authors argue, have
propelled levels of public distrust and fear of government to
record highs.
Revisiting the fundamental premises of representative democracy,
this accessible book asks us to reexamine whether our government
really responds to the broad public or to the narrower interests
and values of certain groups. And with the 2000 campaign season
heating up, "Politicians Don't Pander" could not be more timely.
"'Polling has turned leaders into followers, ' laments columnist
Marueen Dowd of "The New York Times." Well, that's news definitely
not fit to print say two academics who have examined the polls and
the legislative records of recent presidents to see just how
responsive chief executives are to the polls. Their conclusion: not
much. . . . In fact, their review and analyses found that public
opinion polls on policy appear to have increasingly less, not more,
influence on government policies."--Richard Morin, "The Washington
Post"
Personality Disorder offers a comprehensive and accessible
collection of papers that will be practically useful to
practitioners working in secure and non-secure settings with
patients who have personality disorders. This book brings together
fourteen classic papers, which address the impact that working with
personality disorder patients can have on staff. It also offers
theoretical explanations for personality disorder, and explores
other issues such as the concept of boundaries in clinical
practice, psychiatric staff as attachment figures and the
relationship between severity of personality disorder and childhood
experiences. Each paper is introduced with contextual material, and
is followed by a series of questions that are intended to be used
as educational exercises. This book will be essential reading for
clinical and forensic psychologists, psychiatrists, community
psychiatric nurses, social workers and students.
