Handbook of Counseling Boys and Adolescent Males

A Practitioner′s Guide

By: Arthur M. Horne,Mark S. Kiselica

Arthur M. Horne and Mark S. Kiselica have gathered a large and impressive team of authorities from around the United States and New Zealand to produce a comprehensive volume on counseling boys. The contributing authors address a wide variety of developmental and cultural considerations pertaining to counseling boys, and they offer extremely useful recommendations for helping 11 special clinical populations of boys. I know of no other book on boys that is as broad in its scope or as practical in its approach as is this groundbreaking work.—Arnold A. Lazarus, Ph.D., ABPP,Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Psychology, Rutgers University "This wonderful volume represents the advancing developments of the field, is broad and comprehensive in scope, offers outstanding clinical and practical suggestions, and includes a veritable ′who′s who′ of counselors and psychologists among its contributors. Mental health professionals and graduate students will treasure this reference work." —Ronald F. Levant, Ed.D., ABPP, Dean, Center for Psychological Studies, Nova Southeastern University, Ft.Lauderdale, Florida "The Handbook of Counseling Boys and Adolescent Males fills a gap in the counseling field by providing counselors in schools and community agencies with information that will guide them in expanding their services to the males with whom they work. The developmental background is very helpful to counselors in expanding their understanding of the nature of problems boys′ experience in growing up; the section on cultural considerations illustrates sensitivity to the varying racial, ethnic intervention, and treatment programs that may be used in schools and community agencies. This book will be an extremely helpful resource for counselors in their work with boys and adolescent males, it is highly recommended for all mental health practitioners." --Pamela Paisley, Ed.D The University of Georgia, President, Association of Counselor Education and Supervision "As we try to understand the violence that has rocked our schools, one common denominator stands out: The perpetrators are all young males. School counselors confirm that there are a lot of angry young men out there. Why are they so angry? What can we do to better understand them? How can we help? This book promises to be a ′must read′ for all school counselors." —Nancy S. Perry, NCC, NCSC, American School Counselor Association "Arthur M. Horne and Mark S. Kiselica have produced a timely compendium which offers an exciting glimpse at important developments related to boys and men. This well thought out volume boldly ranges beyond conventional boundaries and will be a useful addition to the available literature on boys and men."--Don C. Locke, Ph.D., North Carolina State University The Handbook of Counseling Boys and Adolescent Males provides the reader with a context for understanding the developmental dilemmas experienced by male youth and how male development, both adaptive and maladaptive, is shaped by a complex interaction of biological, cultural, and economic forces. This book is organized into three parts. Part I provides the reader with an understanding of how the psychological, career, and athletic development of boys is shaped by a complex interaction of biological, social, cultural, and economic forces. Part II covers cultural considerations pertaining to counseling with African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, Native American, and White, Non-Hispanic boys. Part III addresses special populations of boys, including gay boys, teenage fathers, sexually abused boys, boy sexual offenders, developmentally disabled boys, shy and anxious boys, depressed boys, bullies, male youth gangs, and boy substance abusers.

Building Trust and Democracy

Transitional Justice in Post-Communist Countries

By: Cynthia M. Horne

This volume explores the effects of transitional justice measures on trust-building and democratization across twelve countries in Central and Eastern Europe and parts of the Former Soviet Union over the period 19892012. The author argues that transitional justice measures have a differentiated impact on political and social trust-building, supporting some aspects of political trust and undermining other aspects of social trust. Moreover, the structure, scope, timing, and implementation of transitional justice measures condition outcomes. More expansive and compulsory institutional change mechanisms register the largest effects, with limited and voluntary change mechanisms having a diminished effect, and more informal and largely symbolic measures having the most attenuated effect. These differentiated and conditional effects are also evident with respect to transition goals like supporting democratic consolidation and reducing corruption, since these goals respond differently to the mixtures of institutional and symbolic reforms found in transitional justice programs. The author develops an original transitional justice typology in order to test hypotheses linking trust-building and transitional justice across twelve cases in the post-communist region. The resulting new datasets allow for a quantitative examination of the relationship between different types of transitional justice programs and a range of possible state building and societal reconciliation goals, including political trust-building, social trust-building, democratization, the strengthening of civil society, the promotion of government effectiveness, and the reduction of corruption. Comparative case studies of four transitional justice programs-Hungary, Romania, Poland, and Bulgariadraw on field work, primary and historical documents, and interview materials to explicate trust-building dynamics, with particular attention to regime complicity challenges, historical memory issues, and communist legacies. Oxford Studies in Democratization is a series for scholars and students of comparative politics and related disciplines. Volumes concentrate on the comparative study of the democratization process that accompanied the decline and termination of the cold war. The geographical focus of the series is primarily Latin America, the Caribbean, Southern and Eastern Europe, and relevant experiences in Africa and Asia. The series editor is Laurence Whitehead, Senior Research Fellow, Nuffield College, University of Oxford.

Hubudi

Hubudi

By: Jay Horne

A man wakens in an amazonian jungle, somewhere in Africa, most likely a tourist's trail of sorts. He's wearing a clean 1,800 dollar sweatsuit and an oddly out of place pair of ruffed up, rugged sandals. He stands up to recall how he got here, remembering that he had a digenerative gene passed on to him from his father that was most likely to cause alzheimer's. He also remembers the last time he was in a public place and watched, matter of factly, when the latest discovery was announced on the news, alchohol is the leading cause of alzheimers. The man wonders how long he'd been boozing this time, he is obviously worth millions from the clothes he has on. The money from a trust fund, a few million dollars, enough to do whatever the hell he wanted. An adventurer is what he had always wanted to be, he just never figured he'd end up more of a drunk than an adventurer. What's more fun than exploring the world while you're wasted! This time though he'd done it. He leans up against what looks like a tourist exhibit. A tomb. Fenced of and marked with a brass studded silver plaque that reads, "Who but I can reveal the secrets of the unhewn dolmen? Who but I can make known the ages of the moon? Who but I can know the secret resting place off the sun?" He then thinks to himself, "Who but I wakes up in the jungle with a 1,800 sweat suit on and a beat up pair of sandals I probably stole from some homeless guy?" Though he never would steal from anyone, he was a man of true heart. His adventure will start, and may end at this tomb as he traces his path and shaky memory to his destiny. He will come to find the tribe who named him Hubudi, and the sandals... Well you will have to wait and find out why he has those sandals on. A good memory needs a good marker. He will lead the way in bridging the gap of worldy seperation. He finds himself on a journey to bring the planet back to life by erasing racial segregation and social degredation. Finding the power in the human spirit to move actual mountains with but the faith of a mustard seed. It may not be plate tectonics after all, but our differences, fear and seperation. The Earth as we know it will come to be know as a true reflexion of our mentalities as the human race. Hubudi will unlock the secret mystery of human nature and restore power back to ourselves and our planet, which will in turn pull our divided continents back together and soon the planets and universe. All will become one. Everyone will see the beauty of human life and the power and potential of human spirit as we follow Hubudi on his journey into the forgotten realm of knowledge that he finds and re-members piece by piece.

Invisible Friends

By: Victor E. Furness and Barbara M. Horne

Every child has a fear or a special need. The Invisible Friends series was written with the sole purpose of reaching just one child that feels he or she is all alone or that nobody understands. The Logan's Poems section was written for Barbara's youngest grandson, who has special medical needs. This poetry section is meant to make children think, laugh, and remember. This book is also written to help both children and parents laugh, and it may possibly make them think and shake their heads. Invisible Friends is dedicated to Victor's mother and Barbara's friend, Hazel Furness. Logan, Barbara's youngest grandson, suffers from a mixture of ADHD, Asperger Syndrome, and light autism. The poems were written to help Logan learn to laugh and be proud of himself. This, in turn, makes life easier on his brothers and sisters. Barbara Horne was blessed with two daughters, Tammy and Connie, twin sons, James and John, and seven grandchildren. Writing poetry is her deep passion. As a cancer survivor, she knows the power of children's laughter. Victor Furness has a son, Robert, who has Aspergers syndrome. Being mentally challenged, Robert was bullied in school. This inspired Victor to write children's stories full of hope and understanding.

The Perfection of Life

A Journey Into Neolithic Mind

By: Jay M. Horne

Nothing was ever good enough for me. Every class I took, or job I tried always seemed to fall short of my expectations. With each change of tide I would look back at my meager achievements and say to myself, "Well, time to start a new chapter." That was the funny thing about my life in general, everything always seemed to be occurring in distinct, well laid out chapters. As if I was living some playwrights' script he had whipped up before my birth. Some will say that mastering yourself, or life, for that matter, is exceedingly impossible and should not be attempted. But, there are those who have made it their lifelong work to do so. Albert Einstein spent his entire life looking for a unifying theory of everything. Bruce Lee spent his time on Earth looking for the answer to perfect harmony. Jesus of Nazareth gave life long dedication to bringing world peace, as did Mother Teresa and many others. At a very young age I set out on a journey.... A journey for The Perfection of Life.
