Gerontological Practice for the Twenty-first Century

A Social Work Perspective

By: Virginia E. Richardson,Amanda Smith Barusch

Gerontological Practice for the Twenty-first Century provides state-of-the-art information on practice approaches with older patients that are age-specific and empirically based. Part 1 reviews current and classic theories of aging and proposes an original framework to practice that incorporates both individual and policy-level interventions. Part 2 covers such psychological problems as anxiety, depression, suicide, substance abuse, and dementia, and describes appropriate, evidence-based interventions. Part 3 discusses working with older families, end-of-life care, bereavement, and work and retirement, and part 4 focuses on core sociopolitical issues in the lives of older people, such as economic policy, poverty, health policy, quality-of-life concerns, and social services. Designed as a text for students and as a professional resource for practitioners, this book is a comprehensive review of the current literature and contains authoritative information on issues relating to a vulnerable population in need of sophisticated care.

Hanging Out in France

By: Amanda Buttinger,Shannon Connelly,Veronica Kirk-Clausen,Anthony Laudato

Dance like a fiend, swim laps, and climb trees -- all under the roof of one nightclub in Quimper; eat delicious homestyle Senegalese dishes in the same block as an underground gothic gay/lesbian disco; take a boat ride on the windy Atlantic to see an island prison that took so long to build, it never housed a single being; learn to speak Breton in a local bar; or sit at an outdoor brassiere to watch flame spitters, fire eaters, and dog trainers while you enjoy a pint of delicious Chimay beer.

Hanging Out in Spain

The Complete Guide to the Hottest Cities, Scenes & Parties

By: Amanda Buttinger,Will Lloyd,Brian Frank,Arianna Martinez,Mike Livermore

This is a new breed of travel guides, the first student guides to satisfy the real needs and interests of a college-age crowd. The tone: fresh, sarcastic, irreverent, intrepid, but not anti-intellectual. This complete guide covers Spain's hottest party towns and resorts, most gorgeous (and challenging) outdoor spots, and secluded towns where you can lay low and mingle with the locals. We highlight everything a hip, young crowd wants: the club and music scene, the best bars, hanging out, retro shopping, cheap eats and sleeps, the gay and lesbian scene, a fresh take on all the cultural sights, and more! Hanging Out in Spain covers Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and much more, all with dozens of maps.
