  This book provides a full guide to creating and running an intensive treatment program for youth with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). 
   
   
   
  There is a rapidly growing interest in brief intensive treatment modalities in both clinical and research settings. Intensive treatment for OCD condenses evidence-based interventions into more patient contact hours per week than standard weekly therapy, and is widely supported as an efficient, effective, and desirable treatment option. Intensive treatment can be widely applicable to different patient groups, including those with more severe symptoms for whom weekly therapy is not sufficient, and those who have mild or moderate symptoms but do not have access to evidence-based treatments in their geographic region. Despite broad interest in developing concentrated treatment programs for OCD, practitioners face several challenges when trying to launch and maintain these programs. This book will provide a comprehensive guide covering the topics of import for clinicians, researchers, and administrators, across different types of institutions and care settings, who want to build an intensive treatment program into their clinical practice across different types of institutions and care settings.

  Lenin - Responding to...

  Vladimir Lenin lies in a tomb in Moscow's Red Square. History has not been kind to this Russian leader, his teachings reviled by modern mainstream politics. But in today's capitalist society, riven by class inequality and imperialist wars, perhaps it is worth returning to this communist icon's demand for "Peace, Land and Bread", and his radical understanding of democracy. 
   
   
   
  Lenin was wrestling with the question of "what is to be done?" when facing the catastrophes of his own time. Against the odds, the Bolshevik party succeeded in rejecting both the corrupt and decaying Romanov dynasty, as well as the capitalist economic system which had started to take root in Russia. 
   
   
   
  To understand how this happened, and what we can learn from him today, Paul Le Blanc takes us through Lenin's dynamic revolutionary thought, how he worked as part of a larger collective, and how he centered the labor movement in Russia and beyond, uncovering a powerful form of democracy that could transform our activism today.

  The American Experiment - A...

  American democracy did not emerge overnight but was built on centuries of ideas and experiences that shaped political thought and practice. Early influences came from the ancient Greeks, whose experiments with direct democracy in city-states demonstrated that citizens could participate in their government. The ancient model, however, was limited in scope and exclusive in nature, leaving out women, slaves, and non-citizens. These limitations sparked later thinkers to envision a more inclusive system in which all individuals might have a voice. 
  The influence of the Roman Republic was also significant. The Romans developed a system of representative government, incorporating checks and balances that would later be crucial in American political structure. Their ideas of civic duty, legal rights, and the importance of a written code of laws resonated with future leaders who saw the need for a balanced government where power was neither overly concentrated nor arbitrary. The Roman emphasis on civic responsibility established an early link between law and governance that would later inform the formation of the United States. 
  The enlightenment period ignited a profound transformation in political thinking. Philosophers such as John Locke, Montesquieu, and Rousseau wrote about natural rights, the separation of powers, and the social contract. Locke’s advocacy of life, liberty, and property laid the groundwork for the concept that governments exist to serve the people and that their authority is derived from the consent of the governed. Montesquieu’s writings on the separation of governmental power into branches to prevent tyranny became a key element in the design of the American political system. These ideas gained traction among colonial leaders, who saw in them the means to challenge the existing forms of monarchical and aristocratic rule.

  Occupied: Civilian Life During World War II reveals the untold story of ordinary people living under extraordinary circumstances. Set in France during the Nazi occupation, this book brings to life the daily struggles, quiet acts of courage, and moral dilemmas faced by civilians caught between survival and resistance. 
  Through meticulous research and vivid storytelling, Occupied captures a world where scarcity shapes every meal, whispers replace open conversation, and even small choices carry weighty consequences. From families stretching rations and bartering for coal, to neighbors deciding whom they could trust, it paints an intimate portrait of life lived under constant watch. 
  This is not a history of generals and battlefields, but of kitchens, marketplaces, and hidden courtyards. It is the story of mothers and fathers, children and grandparents, whose endurance and humanity carried them through the darkest years of the twentieth century. 
  Occupied is both a moving testimony to resilience and an essential lens on the human cost of war, a reminder that behind every headline of conflict are countless lives forever altered by occupation.
