Beyond the DSM Story

Ethical Quandaries, Challenges, and Best Practices

By: Karen Eriksen,Victoria E. Kress

Among many of the ethical issues clinicians encounter in their practice, diagnosing someone with a given mental disorder just for the purpose of reimbursement of services is perhaps the number one ethical dilemma. This book is an outstanding review of the conceptual and empirical literature on this particular dilemma. But the most important contribution of this book is that it provides an extensive discussion of clinical strategies and case vignettes that clinicians could use in diagnosing mental disorder and as the same time attending to ethical standards governing their discipline." —Freddy A. Paniagu, University of Texas Medical Branch-Galveston "Eriksen and Kress offer a well-formulated discussion of problems with the American Psychiatric Association′s The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disoders (DSM), Including almost 800 references, this volume covers the literature in the field extremely well." —W.P. Anderson, CHOICE Beyond the DSM Story presents challenges to the Diagnostic Statistical Model (DSM) system from ethical and cultural perspectives, critically evaluating its fit with other professional and theoretical orientations. It offers possible solutions or best practices for addressing ethical, theoretical, and contextual quandaries, along with experiential activities that challenge the reader to think critically about both the problems and the solutions associated with DSM diagnosis. Beyond the DSM Story presents an atheoretical model for incorporating alternative models with DSM assessment. Instructors, students and practitioners will benefit from this critical appraisal of the DSM. Features • Addresses the philosophical discrepancies between a medical model, DSM assessment approach, and most helping philosophies. • provides a thorough framework for utilizing the DSM in a contextually sensitive fashion • Comprehensively reviews the challenges to the DSM system, particularly multicultural and feminist challenges and addressing ethical concerns related to using the DSM system • Provides case studies and experiential/interactive activities that challenge the reader to consider the DSM from a contextual perspective

One More Shot

By: Victoria Denault

A spicy second-chance hockey romance perfect for fans of Elle Kennedy. Drafted by the NHL at eighteen, Jordan Garrison was headed for fame, and there was only one person he wanted to share it with--Jessie Caplan. He was crazy in love with her, and had finally told her so. They shared an amazing night . . . and then everything fell apart. Jessie tries not to think about the night she gave herself to Jordan-or how he broke her heart. She tries not to think about it, but she does. Especially now, when she's staring into his sky-blue eyes for the first time in six years. After so much time and torment, she can't tell if she loves him or hates him. But Jordan has learned enough to know a connection like theirs is rare. He was lucky to find Jessie once. No way will he lose her again.

Inclusion and Resilience

The Way Forward for Social Safety Nets in the Middle East and North Africa

By: Joana Silva,Victoria Levin,Matteo Morgandi

The report aims to meet two broad objectives: (a) enhance knowledge about the current state of existing social safety nets (SSNs) and assess their effectiveness in responding to new and emerging challenges to the poor and vulnerable in the region by bringing together new evidence, data, and country-specific analysis; and (b) open up and inform a debate on feasible policy options to make SSNs in the Middle East and North Africa more effective and innovative. The first chapter, 'a framework for SSN reform,' describes and illustrates the reasons for the region's growing need for SSN reform and establishes the framework for renewed SSNs. It identifies key goals for SSNs (promoting social inclusion, livelihood, and resilience) and illustrates how these goals have been achieved in some parts of the region and elsewhere. The second chapter, 'key challenges that call for renewed SSNs,' analyzes the challenges facing the region's poor and vulnerable households, which SSNs could focus on as a priority. Two large groups are at higher-than-average poverty risk: children and those who live in rural or lagging areas. The third chapter, 'the current state of SSNs in the Middle East and North Africa,' analyzes SSN spending and assesses different aspects of the SSN systems' performance. The fourth chapter, 'the political economy of SSN reforms in the Middle East and North Africa: what do citizens want?' presents new evidence on citizens' preferences concerning redistribution and SSN design, using newly collected data. It also discusses how political economy considerations could be taken into account in designing renewed SSNs in the region. The fifth chapter, 'the way forward: how to make safety nets in the Middle East and North Africa more effective and innovative,' proposes an agenda for reform and the path for moving forward, using global experience and the evidence presented in the preceding chapters.

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Between Generations

Collaborative Authorship in the Golden Age of Children's Literature

By: Victoria Ford Smith

Winner of the Children’s Literature Association’s 2019 Book Award Between Generations is a multidisciplinary volume that reframes children as powerful forces in the production of their own literature and culture by uncovering a tradition of creative, collaborative partnerships between adults and children in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century England. The intergenerational collaborations documented here provide the foundations for some of the most popular Victorian literature for children, from Margaret Gatty's Aunt Judy's Tales to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. Examining the publication histories of both canonical and lesser-known Golden Age texts reveals that children collaborated with adult authors as active listeners, coauthors, critics, illustrators, and even small-scale publishers. These literary collaborations were part of a growing interest in child agency evident in cultural, social, and scientific discourses of the time. Between Generations puts these creative partnerships in conversation with collaborations in other fields, including child study, educational policy, library history, and toy culture. Taken together, these collaborations illuminate how Victorians used new critical approaches to childhood to theorize young people as viable social actors. Smith's work not only recognizes Victorian children as literary collaborators but also interrogates how those creative partnerships reflect and influence adult-child relationships in the world beyond books. Between Generations breaks the critical impasse that understands children's literature and children themselves as products of adult desire and revises common constructions of childhood that frequently and often errantly resign the young to passivity or powerlessness.

The Final Move

By: Victoria Denault

Hockey legend Devin Garrison thought he blew his shot. But his relationship with Callie Caplan just went into overtime. Sexy, rich, and one of the biggest stars in the NHL, Devin Garrison has always been the one who had it all. That is until his marriage falls apart and he realizes he has to start over. If he's honest, there has only been one woman who ever really excited him-Callie Caplan. They shared a night that was hotter than the late-summer sun, but in an instant-Callie was gone, pretending it never happened. Callie Caplan isn't the wild child people think she is. It's true she's avoided relationships, but only because she's seen how crazy love can be. And her messy, imperfect life is crazy enough without opening her heart to a man-even one as picture perfect as Devin. But when fate brings them back together-just as they need each other most-Devin is determined to convince Callie that what she's feeling is real. And this final play may be their chance at forever . . .

Journey to Healing for the Brokenhearted

By: Victoria Wilson Darrah

Journey to Healing for the Brokenhearted is a book about lost love, broken promises, and the long road to understanding and forgiveness. In a deeply personal way, Victoria Wilson Darrah tells the story of her journey through the valley of divorce, and her discovery that God can still use our weakness and our sadness and our tears to bring about healing and restoration in our relationships with those who have hurt us. "The book is inspiring, captivating, provoking, and challenging. At the end of this reading, one is left with the challenge to live at peace with all men and to forgive as Christ has forgiven us." The Rev. Joy Magala, St. Mark's Episcopal Church, CA "I found it riveting and very moving. Her frankness and eventual forgiveness of her husband through her love and obedience to the will of God is an inspiration and can only bring hope and restoration for anyone who is going through any traumatic experience." Bertha Graham, African Enterprise, CA "Victoria's book is definitely un-put-down-able. Victoria's words have the power to take hold of your thoughts. I know I will find myself thinking about her story for a very long time. The constructive thoughts transcribed straight from Victoria's journal will be a great help to Christian women who are struggling with some of the same issues the author faced." Darla Ebert, Missionary in the Philippines for thirty years Ugandan-born Victoria Wilson Darrah is an author/speaker/television producer who lives in Arcadia, California with her son, Jordan. She is the author of My Father's Daughter: Continuing the Dream, a tribute to her beloved father and his dream for peace and reconciliation, beginning in Africa and spreading around the world. Victoria is a graduate of USC and UCLA with degrees in television and film production.
