Taylor & Francis Socioculturally Attuned Family Therapy
Book SynopsisSocioculturally Attuned Family Therapy, 2nd edition, is a fully updated and essential textbook that addresses the need for marriage and family therapists to engage in socially responsible practice by infusing diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout theory and clinical practice. Written accessibly by leaders in the field, this new edition explores why sociocultural attunement and equity matter, providing students and clinicians with integrative, equity-based family therapy guidelines and case illustrations that clinicians can apply to their practice. The authors integrate principles of societal context, power, and equity into the core concepts and practice of ten major family therapy models, such as structural family therapy, narrative family therapy, and Bowen family systems, with this new edition including a chapter on socio-emotional relationship therapy. Paying close attention to the how toâs of change processes, updates include the use of more diverse voices Trade Review"Attuning to the sociocultural perspective was never a choice but our culture of dominance invisiblizes it, creating colonizing conditions for therapeutic practice. But no more! McDowell, Knudson-Martin, and Bermudez’s socioculturally attuned framework offers theoretically dynamic, contextually sensitive, and relationally ethical ways to unpack the invisible, yet highly felt, role power plays to create third-order change. They show us how this change is an imperative, not a choice, to create just relationships. One of the rich features in this edition are diverse practitioner reflections, across contexts, which afford the reader to engage one’s unique intersectional positionalities in practice. This book needs to be required reading for all practitioners."Saliha Bava, PhD, Associate Professor, MFT Program, Mercy College; Co-founder & Executive Council Member, International Certificate in Collaborative-Dialogic Practices Network "Systemic, third-order thinking requires profound and authentic engagement making transformative change at many contextual levels impossible without socioculturally attuned praxis in family therapy. This compelling book challenges family therapists to stay true to their systemic training and consider all the intersections of our relational contexts. It uses a social justice and inclusion lens and has uniquely included the voices of many engaged in transformative third-order thinking and change. It is a must-read for anyone claiming to be a family therapist."Manijeh Daneshpour, Distinguished Professor of Family Therapy, Alliant International University, CaliforniaTable of Contents1: What is Sociocultural Attunement and Why is it Important? 2: Guiding Principles for Socioculturally Attuned Family Therapy 3: Third Order Ethics and Contextual Self-in-Relationship 4: Socioculturally Attuned Structural Family Therapy 5: Socioculturally Attuned Brief and Strategic Family Therapies 6: Socioculturally Attuned experiential Family Therapy 7: Socioculturally Attuned Attachment based Family Therapies 8: Socioculturally Attuned Bowenian Family Therapy 9: Socioculturally Attuned Contextual Family Therapy 10: Socioculturally Attuned Cognitive Behavioral Family Therapy 11: Socioculturally Attuned Solution Focused Family Therapy 12: Socioculturally Attuned Collaborative Family Therapy 13.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Global Tourism and COVID19
This comprehensive book focuses on how the COVID-19 pandemic is transforming travel and tourism, globally. Despite the devastation caused by COVID-19, authors argue that within the ongoing crisis, there is also an opportunity to positively transform the tourism sector in ways that contribute to a more hopeful future for tourism practitioners, tourists and host communities. As the world emerges from the shadow of COVID-19 there will not be a return to the normal. Rather, the volume shares a vision of global transformation that is driven at least in part by the changing ways people in the post-COVID-19 era may travel and encounter each other and their environments. Individual chapters explore topics such as: regenerative economies, transformational travel, critical perspectives on pandemics and tourism, sustainable development and resilience post-COVID-19, re-discovering and re-localising tourism, global (im)mobilities, transforming tourism management, as well as new value syst

Taylor & Francis What Kind of Death
Book SynopsisMany books have been published about physician-assisted death. This book offers a comprehensive and in-depth examination of that subject, but it also extends the discussion to a broader range of end-of-life decisions including suicide, palliative care and sedation until death. In every jurisdiction that has laws permitting some kind of physician-assisted death, a central point of controversy is whether such assistance should only be available to dying patients, or to everyone who wants to end his life. The right to determine the manner and time of oneâs own death, however, does not necessarily mean that physicians should be permitted to cooperate in ensuring a quick and peaceful death. In this book, Govert den Hartogh considers the fundamental and practical matters â including concrete issues of legal regulation â related to end-of life decision making. He proposes a two-tiered system. Everyone should have access to humane means of ending his life, if his decision to end it iTable of ContentsChapter 1. IntroductionPart I: SuicideChapter 2.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Ethics of Abortion
Book SynopsisThe overturning of Roe v Wade makes the ethical consideration of abortion more important than ever. Appealing to reason rather than religious belief, this book is the most comprehensive case against the choice of abortion yet published. This third edition of The Ethics of Abortion critically evaluates all the major grounds for denying basic rights to fetal human beings, including the views of those who defend not only abortion but also post-birth abortion. It also provides several (non-theological) justifications for the conclusion that all human beings, including those in utero, should be respected as persons. This book also critiques the view that abortion is not wrong even if the human fetus is a person. The Ethics of Abortion examines hard cases for those who are prolife, such as abortion in cases of rape or in order to save the woman's life, as well as hard cases for defenders of abortion, such as sex selection abortion and the rationale for being personally opposed but publicly supportive of abortion. It concludes with a discussion of whether artificial wombs might end the abortion debate. Answering the arguments of defenders of abortion, this book provides reasoned justification for the view that all intentional abortions are ethically wrong and that doctors and nurses who object to abortion should not be forced to act against their consciences.Updates and Revisions to the Third Edition Include: Discusses Achas Burinâs 2014 essay, Beyond Pragmatism: Defending the âBright Lineâ of Birth in chapter 3 Incorporates into chapter 8 David Booninâs cogently argued 2019 book, Beyond Roe: Why Abortion Should be Legal â Even if the Fetus is a Person Expands chapter 9 to examine tragic cases in which prenatal diagnosis determines with certainty that a fetus will die shortly after birth Includes an updated and expanded section in chapter 11 on recent debates about conscience protections Considers in chapter 12 recent arguments that parents have a right to kill if the product of conception is in an artificial womb Updates statistics on numbers of abortions in the United States, including corrections to statistics that were once thought true but are now known as erroneous Updated bibliography Trade ReviewPraise for Previous Editions:“I spent years finding and learning what this book holds in one place. It is an excellent ‘first stop,’ and a necessary reference book for those who wish to engage fully the most vexing moral question of our day.”"Helen M.

Taylor & Francis Criminalising Coercive Control
Book SynopsisDrawing on experiences from other jurisdictions within the UK, Criminalising Coercive Control explores the challenges and potential successes which may be faced in implementing Northern Irelandâs new domestic abuse offence.A specific offence of domestic abuse was introduced in Northern Ireland in March 2021. This represents a crucial development in Northern Irelandâs response to domestic abuse. The new legislation has the effect of criminalising coercive and controlling behaviour, thereby bringing Northern Ireland into line with other jurisdictions within the UK, and also with relevant human rights standards in this regard. The book begins with a discussion regarding the offence itself and the underpinning domestic abuse policy in Northern Ireland. Subsequent chapters explore further measures which may be needed to respond effectively to domestic abuse in Northern Ireland, by drawing upon the experiences of other jurisdictions of criminalising coercive control.

Taylor & Francis Ltd No Bullshit Therapy
Book SynopsisDo you have clients who do not want to be helped? Clients who don't trust you, your profession, or your service? Clients who don't want to change despite your best efforts?Then No Bullshit Therapy (NBT) is for you! Most simply, NBT is about being authentic.Many people are cajoled, pressured, or mandated to see therapists, counsellors, and other helpers. Hence, they are reluctant, suspicious, and resistant to being helped. This puts professionals in the difficult position of trying to help someone who does not want to be helped. To make things worse, there are few practice models designed to engage people who don't want to be engaged.NBT creates a context for mutual honesty and directness in working relationships. Creating a context for mutual honesty and directness can be refreshingly effective, especially with people who are suspicious of counselling or distrustful of the counsellor. When combined with warmth and care, honesty and directness can enhance co-operTrade Review"No Bullshit Therapy: How To Engage People Who Don’t Want to Work with You is excellent. Enjoyable to read, full of good ideas and compelling examples, it is a book our profession and clients need. It will help you to connect and be effective with a range of clients, especially those who are often described as ‘resistant' and difficult to work with. Highly recommended!" Michael F. Hoyt, Ph.D (USA). Author of Brief Therapy and Beyond: Stories, Language, Love, Hope, and Time and Brief Therapy Conversations: Exploring Efficient Intervention in Psychotherapy (with Flavio Cannistrà)."This book is not just for therapists trying to work with clients who hate the idea of therapy. It is for all of us who have ever avoided that difficult conversation we know we should have. Jeff Young guides us through the philosophy and practice of NBT, with detailed client transcripts, all exuding his own particular combination of warmth and honesty."Pam Rycroft, MPsych. (Australia). Co-editor of Single-Session Thinking and Practice in Global, Cultural, and Familial Contexts: Expanding Applications."Jeff Young's work on 'No Bullshit Therapy' is, in my view, one of the most important developments in the field of therapy since Single-Session Therapy came onto the scene towards the end of the last century. In fact, the combination of these developments increases the potency of both. Mandatory reading if you have to work with mandated clients...and if you don't".Windy Dryden, Ph.D (UK).

The focus has traditionally been on punishment-consequence interventions and demanding compliance, but experience and research shows that they can be better served through relationship-based practice incorporating harm reduction principles, resiliency and strength-based approaches, community collaboration, and an understanding that these youth typically come from experiences of early trauma impacting their brain development and their ability to form attachments.

It examines how and why the public realm supports or obstructs the health-forward lifestyles of those who choose to live there. This book explores the values and dynamics that shaped a healthy city to enable those things. It is a case study of a recognized success looking more closely at a recent urban infill: the Pearl District. The future roles of the planners and other design professionals in continuing to build healthy and responsive environments are suggested. The cities of the future will be those that we already inhabit, but infilled and adapted to tomorrow's needs and values. Understanding the dynamics involved is essential for those in whose hands we entrust the design of cities and urban places.Trade Review"Insightful. Tillett brings his intimate knowledge of the city and it’s city-shapers to illuminate the critical ideas and the social context that gave rise to a remarkable story in modern city-building. And he lets us know it's a work still in progress, signaling hope for the next generation of city-builders." Gil Kelley, FAICP, General Manager of Planning, Urban Design and Sustainability, City of Vancouver, BC; former Director of Planning, City of Portland, Oregon"Portland is a wonderful city and Paddy Tillett's thoughtful and exhaustive analysis describes the important contribution that intelligent place making and urban design has made. This book is surely a must read for any aspiring politician as while Portland currently benefits from enlightened governance there is no cause for complacency. Tillet's fictional epilogue charts a catastrophic, but credible, future that matches any Hollywood block-buster script, should his warnings be ignored." Howard Sheppard Director, City Design and Planning, LDDC"An insightful and laser-sharp assessment of the successes and shortfalls of Portland’s innovative and place-based planning and urban design within an international professional context. The result is a must-read book with hope and direction for development that sustains a healthy metropolitan life-style while confronting the realities of climate change, flooding, landslides, and a major seismic event."Don Miles, FAIA, Founding board member of Project for Public Spaces, Retired principal of ZGF Architects LLP"Paddy Tillett is a student of urbanism and design, able to articulate well how each has been exhibited in his adopted home town of Portland, and the role each has played in the evolution of one of America's most livable cities. He has a good grasp of how the implications of our urban design decisions, whether intentional or not, greatly affect our use and enjoyment of a place, and its spaces. In Shaping Portland, Tillett communicates this in a manner accessible to both the professional design practitioner seeking to learn from the experience of a successful natural and built environment, as well as the lay person seeking to quench their thirst for knowledge of how this most successful exhibition of a healthy and livable city came to be. There are many lessons contained within this book that provide insight into Portland's future as a resilient city, and to inform others who may wish to apply them to help improve the health of communities elsewhere." David M. Siegel, FAICP, Former President, American Planning Association"What I really like about the book is how it looks at Portland from a variety of vantage points: as a collection of buildings, streets and parks, but also natural factors like topography and climate, as well as the values that underscore all that we do in shaping the city, the past errors we've made, and the great challenge we face in the years ahead preparing for a potentially cataclysmic seismic event."Brian Libby, Portland ArchitectureTable of ContentsIntroduction 1.
