Clinical Assessment and Diagnosis in Social Work Practice

By: Jacqueline Corcoran,Joseph F. Walsh

Clinical Assessment and Diagnosis in Social Work Practice surveys common mental disorders that individuals may demonstrate over their lifespan, and teaches social workers how to diagnose them according to the DSM-5. The medical model of the DSM is counterbalanced by social work values and principles and an appreciation for the environmental context of individual behavior.

Katherine Anne Porter and Mexico

The Illusion of Eden

Katherine Anne Porter and Mexico

The Illusion of Eden

By: Thomas F. Walsh

In 1920, an unknown journalist named Katherine Anne Porter first sojourned in Mexico. When she left her "familiar country" for the last time in 1931, she was the celebrated author of Flowering Judas and Other Stories and had accumulated a wealth of experiences and impressions that would inspire numerous short stories, essays, and reviews, as well as the opening section of her only novel, Ship of Fools. In this perceptive study of Porter's Mexican experiences, Thomas Walsh traces the important connections between those events and her literary works. Separating fact from the fictions that Porter constantly created about her life, he follows the active role that she played in Mexican political and intellectual life—even to the discovery of a plot to overthrow the Mexican government, which eventually figured in Flowering Judas. Most important, Walsh discerns how the great swings between depression and elation that characterized Porter's emotional life influenced her alternating visions of Mexico. In such works as "Xochimilco," Porter saw Mexico as an earthly Eden where hopes for a better society could be realized, but in other stories, including "The Fiesta of Guadalupe," she depicts Mexico as a place of hopeless oppression for the native peoples. Mexico, Porter once said, gave her back her Texas past. Given the unhappiness of that past, her feelings toward Mexico would always be ambivalent, but her Mexican experiences influenced all her subsequent works to some degree, even those pieces not specifically Mexican in setting. Walsh's study, then, is an essential key for anyone seeking greater understanding of the life or works of Katherine Anne Porter.

Building Racial Competency in White Educators through the Transformative Act of Writing

Building Racial Competency in White Educators through the Transformative Act of Writing

Writing through Whiteness

By: Paul F. Walsh

This book argues that the transformative act of writing can be used to strengthen the racial competency of White educators in profound ways, leading them to a more comprehensive consciousness regarding the way their racial identity impacts them personally and professionally. Through detailing the experiences of two White educators who engaged in a practice of deeply reflective personal narrative writing about their racial identity, this book presents written data from the participants and discusses the theoretical and practical implications of the participants’ written work. It also provides a strong, evidence-informed case for using reflective writing as a tool for strengthening the racial competency of White educators in order to positively impact their students, their classrooms, and their greater school communities. Lastly, the book offers writing exercises that can be applied to contexts within and outside the field of education so that readers can start the important work of further developing their racial competency. It will appeal to researchers, teacher educators, faculty, and scholars with interest in whiteness studies and advancing antiracist pedagogies, as well as literacy education and diversity and equity in education.

Greene and Cornwallis in the Carolinas

The Pivotal Struggle in the American Revolution, 1780-1781

By: Jeffrey A. Denman,John F. Walsh

The story of the Revolutionary War in the Northern colonies is well known but the war that raged across the South in 1780-1781--considered by some the "unknown Revolution"--included some of the most important yet least studied engagements. Drawing extensively on their letters, this book follows the campaigns of General Nathanael Greene and Lord Charles Cornwallis as they fought across the Carolinas, and offers a compelling look at their leadership. The theater of war in which the two commanders operated was populated by various ethnic and religious groups and separated geographically, economically and politically into the low country and the simmering backcountry, setting the stage for what was to come.

Syracuse Police

By: Daniel F. Walsh,Thomas L. Derby,Russell W. Gates

The roots of the Syracuse Police Department date back to 1825. Following the opening of the Erie Canal and the boom of the thriving salt industry, Syracuse became a bustling metropolis and a jumping-off point for pioneers, entrepreneurs, and adventurers. The first constable, H.W. Durnford, soon faced the problem of roustabouts, gamblers, and robbers preying upon the canal and warehouse workers along lower James Street. While the community experimented with village and night watches, special constables, and patrolmen, no permanent solution was found. On January 1, 1846, the final die was cast when Syracusans clashed with salt boilers from the adjoining village of Salina in the bloody Coffeehouse Riot. Because of insufficient police services, the militia had to put down the riot. To improve services, both villages voted to consolidate, and in 1848, the City of Syracuse and its police department were created. Syracuse Police illustrates the evolution of urban policing and gives insight into the department's core values and the police officers who have held them sacred.

Intelligence, Biosecurity and Bioterrorism

By: Patrick F. Walsh

This book explores how potential bio-threats and risks may evolve post 9/11 given the rapid changes in biotechnology and synthetic biology. It also explores what role intelligence communities can play in understanding threats and risks. It argues that although bio-threats and risks are largely low probability and high impact in nature, intelligence in ‘Five Eyes’ countries remain insufficiently prepared to understand them. This book identifies key areas where intelligence reforms need to take place including a more strategic and systematic collaboration between national security/law enforcement intelligence and the scientific community. It is aimed at intelligence analysts, those in the scientific community working on health security threats, policy makers and researchers working on biosecurity and bioterrorism threats and risks.

Intelligence Leadership and Governance

Building Effective Intelligence Communities in the 21st Century

By: Patrick F. Walsh

This book explores the challenges leaders in intelligence communities face in an increasingly complex security environment and how to develop future leaders to deal with these issues. As the security and policy-making environment becomes increasingly complicated for decision-makers, the focus on intelligence agencies ‘to deliver’ more value will increase. This book is the first extensive exploration of contemporary leadership in the context of intelligence agencies, principally in the ‘Five Eyes’ nations (i.e. Australia, United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and New Zealand). It provides a grounded theoretical approach to building practitioner and researcher understanding of what individual and organisational factors result in better leadership. Using interviews from former senior intelligence leaders and a survey of 208 current and former intelligence leaders, the work explores the key challenges that leaders will likely face in the twenty-first century and how to address these. It also explores what principles are most likely to be important in developing future leaders of intelligence agencies in the future. This book will be of much interest to students of intelligence studies, strategic studies, leadership studies, security studies, and international relations.

The Indispensable Staff Manager

A Guide to Accountable, Effective Staff Leadership

By: John F. Walsh

The tools provided here, including a Strategic Organizational Planning Process (SOPP) model, can be used to foster a dynamic change in how staffs are trained, developed, managed, and led. The results of successfully implementing these changes include productivity gains without additional capital expenditures, a more satisfied workforce, lower turnover costs, and a more effective relationship between management and staff. In today's organizations, staffs are undervalued, misdirected, misunderstood, disrespected, and undereducated businesspeople. They are often ignorant of what their true role in the organization should be. They are valued for their specialized knowledge, but are rarely seen by senior management as major contributors to the bottom line. For this reason, staffs are ripe targets for reorganization, reengineering, or reduction, with little or no consideration of consequences other than the immediate impact on corporate profits. Whose fault is this situation? Is it merely a product of poor organizational design, or ineffective strategic planning? There exists a significant gulf in the understanding of staffs' roles in furthering organizational success on the part of all parties: line management, staff management, and the staff members themselves. Yet while the blame can be widely shared, only an effective staff manager can change the situation for the better.

Different Types of Depression

Characteristics and Treatments

By: Joyce Zborower,Joyce Zborower M a,John F. Walsh

Different Types of Depression - Characteristics and treatments by Joyce Zborower, M.A. and John F. Walsh, M.S. takes a look at 3 major depressive states as well as 10 lesser depressive states such as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), postpartum, anxiety, chronic, psychotic and other types of depression. We also look at various free online tests to help determine whether their state is really depression or something else. Mild depressive states can sometimes be successfully treated with herbs. More severe cases are treated medically using SSRIs or perhaps therapy or even electrical brain stimulation. If you had ever wanted to know how you could help a depressed friend or family member, Jack Walsh presents his best recommendations.

Other information about Different Types of Depression Genre ---- Psychology/depression self help Tags ---- depression medication, teenage depression, overcoming depression, medication for depression, treating depression, how to help depression, drugs for depression Excerpt from Different Types of Depression Management of Depression during Pregnancy Exercise, proper nutrition and adequate rest are some of the strategies you can use to relieve the symptoms of depression. Pregnant women are encouraged to get enough exercise and rest in order to manage their moods and prevent the development of chronic depression. Chronic or severe depression requires the intervention of a qualified professional. Psychotherapy is one of the popular treatments for depression. The patient is thoroughly interviewed to determine all the risk factors involved then an appropriate therapy and perhaps some medication is prescribed. The mental health practitioner works hand in hand with the obstetrician to determine the best antidepressant for the patient. This is because antidepressants may have adverse effects on the unborn baby and can even lead to congenital malfunctions. Other maternal complications such as gestational diabetes may also be triggered by the use of antidepressant therapy. It is important while pregnant to watch out for the physical symptoms of depression and take the most appropriate actions in order to prevent further complications for the mother as well as the child.
