  • The Hoarders  Material Deviance in Modern

    The University of Chicago Press The Hoarders Material Deviance in Modern

    Book SynopsisThe verb declutter has not yet made it into the Oxford English Dictionary, but its ever-increasing usage suggests that it's only a matter of time. The author finds that both the idea of organization and the role of the clutterologist are deeply ingrained in our culture, and that there is a fine line between clutter and deviance in America.Trade Review"My high expectations were fulfilled and indeed exceeded by Herring's brilliant, groundbreaking, fascinating, and lucid book. In traversing his rich and well-researched archive in the series of case studies that make up the book, Herring examines how and why hoarders have been stigmatized in a number of different contexts through the twentieth century. In doing so, he mounts a sustained and significant challenge to the pathologizing discourses about hoarding." (Jonathan Flatley, Wayne State University)"

  • Cruel Attachments

    The University of Chicago Press Cruel Attachments

    Book SynopsisExploring different cases of the attempt to rehabilitate child sex offenders, this book details a secular ritual process aimed not only at preventing future acts of molestation but also at fundamentally transforming the offender, who is ultimately charged with creating an almost entirely new self.Trade Review"Cruel Attachments is wholly absorbing, in the sense that it is unputdownable, but also in the sense that it provides numerous occasions for what can feel like utterly contaminating, destabilizing emotional identifications: with victims, family members, therapists, prison guards, the anthropologist himself-and, however unnervingly, also perpetrators. It is no small feat to bring readers inside the emotional worlds of all these players. To have done so, and with such subtlety and nuance, is remarkable and unprecedented." (Dagmar Herzog, Graduate Center, City University of New York)

  • Model Behavior

    The University of Chicago Press Model Behavior

    2 in stock

    Book SynopsisMice are used as model organisms across a wide range of fields in science todaybut it is far from obvious how studying a mouse in a maze can help us understand human problems like alcoholism or anxiety. How do scientists convince funders, fellow scientists, the general public, and even themselves that animal experiments are a good way of producing knowledge about the genetics of human behavior? In Model Behavior, Nicole C. Nelson takes us inside an animal behavior genetics laboratory to examine how scientists create and manage the foundational knowledge of their field. Behavior genetics is a particularly challenging field for making a clear-cut case that mouse experiments work, because researchers believe that both the phenomena they are studying and the animal models they are using are complex. These assumptions of complexity change the nature of what laboratory work produces. Whereas historical and ethnographic studies traditionally portray the laboratory as a place where scientists control, simplify, and stabilize nature in the service of producing durable facts, the laboratory that emerges from Nelson's extensive interviews and fieldwork is a place where stable findings are always just out of reach. The ongoing work of managing precarious experimental systems means that researchers learn as muchif not moreabout the impact of the environment on behavior as they do about genetics. Model Behavior offers a compelling portrait of life in a twenty-first-century laboratory, where partial, provisional answers to complex scientific questions are increasingly the norm.

  • The Recovery Revolution  The Battle Over

    Columbia University Press The Recovery Revolution The Battle Over

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisPhenomena of Power delves into the sociohistorical manifestations of power and breaks through to its general structures. Popitz distinguishes the forms of the enforcement of power as well as of its stabilization and institutionalization, clearly articulating how the mechanisms of power work and how to track them in the social world.Trade ReviewUsing an impressive array of sources, Claire D. Clark meticulously and thoughtfully traces addiction treatment from Synanon's therapeutic communities in the 1960s to the surge of treatment centers in the twenty-first century. A magnificent achievement. -- W. J. Rorabaugh, University of Washington and author of American Hippies Clark provides the most authoritative account to date of the origins and evolution of modern drug treatment in the United States. Beautifully written, The Recovery Revolution embeds treatment developments in the social, political, and cultural moments from which they sprang instead of treating them out of context and provides real insight into the development of the modern, punitive system of criminal justice and the era of mass incarceration. -- Joseph Spillane, Professor and Associate Dean, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, University of Florida The Recovery Revolution recounts the origins, history, and influence of modern 'therapeutic communities' as a treatment for addiction. It argues that these shrewdly marketed programs and their charismatic leaders played a central role in the shift of American drug policy away from traditional punitive responses and towards therapeutic responses starting with Synanon in the late 1950s... Clark's book is extensively and creatively researched, intelligently and fluidly written, and it performs a crucial task for modern drug historiography. -- David Herzberg, University of BuffaloTable of ContentsList of Illustrations Preface Introduction: The Roots of Revolution Part I: Revolution 1.

    Book SynopsisOverwhelming evidence indicates that new social workers going into child welfare or other trauma-related care discover emotional challenges. In a textbook that bridges the gap between theoretical and pragmatic approaches, Jason M. Newell provides a solution by conceptualizing self-care as the key to professional resilience.Trade ReviewNewell emphasizes the importance of professional self-care as it relates to providing ethical and quality services to others who are vulnerable and needing help. Clearly, if as helping professionals we do not take the first breath of oxygen, how is it possible to help others breathe? -- Carolyn Szafran, Washburn University Jason M. Newell's important book is a wake call to the field of social work and its accrediting body; that self-care is the key to professional resilience. Awake and read this book! -- Charles R.

  • The Stigma Effect

    Columbia University Press The Stigma Effect

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisIn The Stigma Effect, psychologist Patrick W. Corrigan examines the unintended consequences of mental health campaigns and proposes new policies in their place. He argues that effective strategies require leadership by those with lived experience, as their stories replace ideas of incompetence and dangerousness with ones of hope and empowerment.Trade ReviewHow do we, as a society, reduce stigmatization of the seriously mentally ill? As Patrick Corrigan persuasively argues in this thorough inquiry into the subject, we should listen to their stories, for then we will discover fellow human beings, and not the “other” we fear. -- Robert Whitaker, author of Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing Rise of Mental IllnessThis is a special book. Not only does Corrigan provide the best introduction to mental illness that I have seen, as well as providing concrete guidance on how to end the stigma associated with it, but by interweaving his own experiences, Corrigan offers the academic community a new and inspiring model for disseminating our work in a more engaging and effective way. The result is a book that raises the bar for the rest of us. -- Larry Davidson, Yale University School of MedicineThe strength of this book is the way it balances the interconnected components of self-stigma and public stigma, with equally strong treatment of both. It will be of interest to people interested or involved in stigma reduction, either as advocates, policy folks, or personally. -- Stephanie Knaak, University of CalgaryThe book is useful for anyone teaching or practicing in the fields of counseling, social work, psychology, or medical education and public health.

  • Measuring the Effects of Racism

    Columbia University Press Measuring the Effects of Racism

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisA large body of research has established a relationship between experiences of racial discrimination and adverse effects on mental and physical health. Robert T. Carter and Alex L. Pieterse offer a manual for mental health professionals on how to understand, assess, and treat the effects of racism as a psychological injury.Trade Review[A] well-researched book. -- H. Steven Moffic, MD , Jessica Isom, MD, MPH , Rahn K. Bailey, MD * Psychiatric Times *It is impossible to cover immense strengths of this book in this four-page review. The authors validate many points that address a huge gap currently prominent in society and provide evidence of ways to measure the effects and impact of racism, encourage training to prepare mental health workers, and clinical ideas for working with people of color who are impacted by racism. I believe this text takes a huge step in the process of helping clients who come to mental health workers measure the effects of racism and guide future work to effectively increase the well-being of people of color who have experienced racism. This text is appropriate for all mental health workers and health-care professionals who work with individuals, families, and student groups. -- Edward N. Randle Tarleton State University, Fort Worth, Texas, USA * Social Work with Groups *Carter and Pieterse increase our understanding of and the treatability of traumatic stress that results from racism. The proposals proffered in Measuring the Effects of Racism will lead to better treatment methods of race-based trauma and increase the evidence base for advocacy and agendas for social justice. -- Hugo Kamya, Simmons UniversityDrawing on decades of experience, Robert Carter and Alex Pieterse have given us a tour de force exploration of new research on race-based traumatic stress (RBTS). Introducing an invaluable new theoretical model and assessment, they have provided an indispensable resource for researchers, practitioners, and trainees interested in systematically addressing the ill effects of racism in our society. -- Helen A. Neville, coauthor of Counseling the Culturally DiverseMeasuring the Effects of Racism is the definitive guide to understanding the scope of the psychological impact of racism. Providing a clear and comprehensive conceptual framework and assessment strategy, Carter and Pieterse have written a book that will be of great benefit to educators, researchers, practitioners, and policy makers. -- Matthew Miller, associate editor of Journal of Counseling PsychologyTable of ContentsAcknowledgmentsIntroductionPart I.
