This book summarises the entire field of adult neuro-urology in a
concise, well-illustrated, and practical style. Contents include
epidemiology, lower urinary tract anatomy and physiology. This is
followed by coverage of the pathophysiology of various types of
voiding dysfunctions and a clinical section focusing on practical
evaluation and treatment. A range of treatments from behavioral,
pharmacological, intra vesical, tissue engineering and surgical are
explained and reviewed. Other topics such as complications, sexual
function, fertility, maternity aspects, and prognostic factors
round off the book. *Each topic is covered in detail and well
illustrated. *The reader will gain a full understanding of every
aspect of adult neuro-urology. *Facilitates improved clinical
knowledge and practice. Provides an essential and complete
reference tool for students and established urologists,
neurologists, physiotherapists and nurses, and technicians involved
in the care of patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction.
This volume gives a survey of the most recent developments and
trends in intergroup research. Diverging from classical approaches
that looked at diverse needs and motives (positive distinctiveness,
belongingness, etc), the present book focuses not only on the
question what motivates intergroup behaviour, but especially on how
the motivation of intergroup behaviour functions. The book focuses
on the role of emotion and motivation in the development of
intergroup conflict, social exclusion, tolerance and other group
related phenomena. The sections demonstrate how classical theories
in the field have been further developed, enriched, and more
sophisticatedly tested over the years, and summarise research on
affect and memory. They also develop a group based self-regulation
approach, examine several specific emotions as motivational forces
of intergroup behaviour, and look at factors of intergroup
relations that lead to social change. The chapters are short and
easy-to-comprehend summaries referring to a broad range of original
work, providing a useful resource for advanced students of Social
Psychology and researchers in the field of intergroup relations.

Christianity Endangered or Extinct? A People's History of
Christianity is a blockbuster for all Christians in the 21st
Century. Volume I: The Gathering Storm is about the origins of a
great divide that began in 100 - 430 CE, during Christianity's
formative stages, between Jesus of Nazareth's teachings and the
Christianity we have inherited. Cragun and Kessler outline how the
so-called "Fathers of the Church" took over the community of Jesus,
destroyed its foundations, and built their own church edifice,
which has been transmitted to us. Step by step, the authors utilize
the very words of these philosophers to show how the movement of
Jesus became, in reality, the church of philosophers and the Roman
Empire. In their zeal to establish themselves as the inheritors of
Christ's message, they coined a new word, "heretic," and pinned it
on those who opposed them, gradually stifling dissent. Though much
of modern scholarship blames Constantine for the corruption of the
Church, Cragun and Kessler document that the corruption was a
gradual process in which Platonic philosophy, power, and prestige
gradually entombed the message Jesus actually gave us. They
demonstrate that this religion was carefully honed to be acceptable
to emperors, rulers and the elite - replacing Christ's message of
love, egalitarianism, communalism, pacifism, and servant
leadership. Cragun and Kessler have written a true People's History
of Christianity, in the tradition of Howard Zinn's People's History
of the United States. Within this perspective, they received help
in their analysis from such notables as Elizabeth Schussler
Fiorenza and Michael Foucault and others. Concerned that much of
what parades itself as the "people's history" of Christianity today
fails to do adequate class, economic, and sociological analysis.
The authors have attempted to remedy this by providing more
comprehensive scholarly research.
