The Palgrave Handbook of Adult Mental Health (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2016): Michelle O'Reilly, Jessica Nina Lester The Palgrave Handbook of Adult Mental Health (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2016)
Michelle O'Reilly, Jessica Nina Lester
R4,160 Discovery Miles 41 600 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

This Handbook gathers together empirical and theoretical chapters from leading scholars and clinicians to examine the broad issue of adult mental health. The contributors draw upon data from a variety of contexts to illustrate the multiple ways in which language as action can assist us in better understanding the discursive practices that surround adult mental health. Conversation and discourse analysis are useful, related approaches for the study of mental health conditions, particularly when underpinned by a social constructionist framework. In the field of mental health, the use of these two approaches is growing, with emergent implications for adults with mental health conditions, their practitioners, and/or their families. Divided into four parts; Reconceptualising Mental Health and Illness; Naming, Labelling and Diagnosing; The Discursive Practice of Psychiatry; and Therapy and Interventions; this Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of current debates regarding adult mental health.

The Social, Cultural, and Political Discourses of Autism (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021): Jessica Nina Lester, Michelle O'Reilly The Social, Cultural, and Political Discourses of Autism (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021)
Jessica Nina Lester, Michelle O'Reilly
R2,886 Discovery Miles 28 860 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Taking up a social constructionist position, this book illustrates the social and cultural construction of autism as made visible in everyday, educational, institutional and historical discourses, alongside a careful consideration of the bodily and material realities of embodied differences. The authors highlight the economic consequences of a disabling culture, and explore how autism fits within broader arguments related to normality, abnormality and stigma. To do this, they provide a theoretically and historically grounded discussion of autism-one designed to layer and complicate the discussions that surround autism and disability in schools, health clinics, and society writ large. In addition, they locate this discussion across two contexts - the US and the UK - and draw upon empirical examples to illustrate the key points. Located at the intersection of critical disability studies and discourse studies, the book offers a critical reframing of autism and childhood mental health disorders more generally.

R3,672 Discovery Miles 36 720 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book introduces a novel approach for examining language and communication in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) - discourse and conversation analysis.

Emerging from a range of social scientific fields, discourse and conversation analysis involve fine-grained qualitative analysis of naturally-occurring, rather than laboratory-based, interaction, enabling broad applications. Presented in two parts, this innovative volume first provides a set of pedagogical chapters to develop the reader's knowledge and skills in using these approaches, before moving to showcase the use of discursive methods through a range of original contributions from world-leading scholars, drawn from a range of disciplines including sociology, academic and clinical psychology, speech and language therapy, critical disability studies and social theory, and medicine and psychiatry.

R2,056 R1,925 Discovery Miles 19 250 Save R131 (6%) Ships in 9 - 17 working days

This textbook uniquely highlights the particular complexities of working systemically with couples and families with children. It is designed to be student and practitioner oriented by drawing on real world examples of therapeutic encounters in mental health settings to illustrate how theory can inform practice.  Good communication is the cornerstone of good clinical practice and is foundational for building therapeutic alliance. Although therapists and counsellors are often highly skilled in their therapeutic modalities, this book offers additional practical suggestions about how families engage in social actions and positioning themselves and others in their talk.  The book also takes wider micro and macro ecological systems within which systemic psychotherapists and counsellors work into account and consider the ways that these larger social influences are experienced within institutional discourses.  The book will be a valuable resource across a broad spectrum of professions and researchers, including counsellors, psychotherapists, family therapists, psychiatrists, nurses, play therapists, speech and language therapists, and mental health social workers.

R474 Discovery Miles 4 740 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

TREDD - Test Requirement Driven Development - focuses on improving the efficiency of the product development process. It allows Agile methodologies, such as SCRUM, to execute and deliver product features to the marketplace with greater effectiveness and efficiency.

Many organizations and perhaps your own, struggle to bring new product features to the marketplace in order to keep abreast of constantly changing customer demands. So many companies that develop software using an Agile development methodology fail to realize the efficiency that was promised.

As a result these new product development initiatives: run further and further behind schedule, require greater effort to develop new product features, have project costs that escalate beyond defined budgets, and are staffed with members that work in silos with little regard to quality.

TREDD places a renewed emphasis on quality and accountability, and provides the insight to allow your product development and management teams to make the necessary changes in order to produce outstanding quality products on schedule, in a cost-efficient, highly collaborative, and creative manner.

By understanding TREDD, you will discover the missing catalyst that is preventing your organization from realizing its return on investment and the creative innovation that an Agile development methodology can provide.

Instead, they focus on subjects like methodological integrity, perspective driven data collection and theoretically-led analysis. This will be an important resource for anyone looking to practically engage with advanced qualitative research methods.
