This accessible text expands on the recommendations of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' Well Woman Task Force (WWTF) to provide a practical guide to conducting a successful well-woman visit. Background chapters summarize the history of the WWTF and rationale and evidence supporting periodic health visits, explain the principles of early diagnosis and prevention, and offer advice on the practical side of conducting a visit, including considerations for special populations. Chapters detail each component of the visit, first explaining the scope of a problem, the rationale for screening or prevention, and the factors that alter a screening. The WWTF recommendations are then summarized and advice is offered on how to apply them. Case studies and advice on how to identify and assess new guidelines are also provided, ensuring providers are well-equipped to offer efficient and effective care.
In The Emotional Toolbox, Dr. Bochner provides a fresh and accessible perspective on the most common issues of psychotherapy and mental health. This book is a Manual for Mental Health and is organized as an owners manual for the relational world, which Dr. Bochner calls the great life machine. Unlike other manuals that focus on all brand-new systems functioning perfectly, however, The Emotional Toolbox recognizes the various types of likely breakdown that occur over time and focuses intently on helping you bring yourself to full potential. In essence, The Emotional Toolbox is the Introduction to Psychology people truly want and need, even though it does not include the typical Psych 101 articles on rats in mazes, pellet-pecking pigeons, cat-zapping contraptions, or old tired theories no longer useful in modern day psychotherapy. Instead, in this Manual the reader finds and feasts on expert knowledge regarding the intricacies of human interaction, the vagaries of couple and family life, and the ins and outs of mental health diagnosis. Dr. Bochners Emotional Toolbox addresses the most commonly encountered issues of life, explains emotional difficulties and interpersonal communication at a level where the reader can feel personally understood, and offers solutions and redemption where people struggle most.
This book brings together the work of researchers from around the globe around the topic of children’s first transitions to early care and education. It discusses political and sociocultural contexts, theories, and ideologies around the theme. The book offers perspectives and findings on adult expectations around a child’s first transition, infant emotional experiences, the role of space, the part that key objects play in infant transitions, and the role of time. It also discusses age of first entry, routines and rhythms of the institutions, and the future expectations of those involved. The book takes a culturally responsive approach, revealing at times striking commonalities across countries, and at other points distinct differences in the people, environments, orienting pedagogies, and policies that inform an infant’s transition into care.
