It also investigates innovative strategies to combat resistance, highlighting the urgent need for new drug development and alternative therapeutic interventions. Understanding the genetics and mechanisms behind resistance is crucial, as is recognizing the real-world impact on patient outcomes.

Organizational Betrayal - How...

Charol Shakeshaft

In Organizational Betrayal, educational researcher Charol Shakeshaft advocates a system-wide approach for safeguarding K–12 students against educator sexual misconduct. 
 
 
 
Based on decades of inquiry into cases of student abuse in educational systems, the work reveals that sexual abuse of children in US K–12 schools is more prevalent than we'd like to believe. Examining the root causes and contexts, Shakeshaft concludes that school cultures and institutional structures are often complicit in cases of sexual misconduct. 
 
 
 
Shakeshaft suggests straightforward actions that can interrupt patterns of abuse and trauma, including teaching both potential bystanders and potential victims of school employee sexual misconduct the policies regulating adult–student interactions in schools; training all members of a school community to recognize red flags and boundary crossing; and investigating the difference between good teaching and questionable tactics that should trigger suspicion. 
 
 
 
The documentation provided in this book is persuasive, and it compels examination of school cultures, decisions, and practices, with a goal of preventing the abuse of students by school employees.

Supply and Demand

Hubert Henderson

"Supply and Demand" is a book written by Hubert Henderson that explores the economic principles of supply and demand. The book examines how prices are determined in a free market economy and how changes in supply and demand affect those prices. 
Henderson argues that prices serve as signals in a market economy, reflecting the underlying conditions of supply and demand. When demand for a product or service is high relative to its supply, prices will rise, incentivizing producers to increase production and meet the demand. Conversely, when supply exceeds demand, prices will fall, discouraging production and encouraging consumption. 
Henderson also discusses how changes in supply and demand can be affected by factors such as technology, government policies, and consumer preferences. He argues that understanding the principles of supply and demand is essential for policymakers and business leaders in making informed decisions about economic issues. 
Overall, "Supply and Demand" is a concise and accessible introduction to the principles of economics, and remains an important work in the field today.

Metacognitive Therapy - Free...

Linda Burlan Sørensen

“Metacognitive Therapy – Free Yourself from Imprisoning Thoughts”
Metacognitive therapy is a groundbreaking approach in psychology, emphasizing the identification and challenge of metacognitive processes that individuals employ when dealing with their thoughts and feelings. By understanding and addressing the metacognitive management systems underlying behaviour and thought patterns, individuals can break free from the cycle of anxiety, depression, and stress. Offering a comprehensive understanding and practical guidance, the book empowers readers to explore the mechanisms behind thought patterns and emotional reactions influencing their well-being.
We cannot get better by ruminating and worrying. Nevertheless, these are the strategies for many who suffer from anxiety and depression. But a wound does not heal by continuing to scratch at it. It just becomes bigger and bigger. If we spend several hours each day wondering about our gloomy thoughts, we become even more depressed and anxious, and do not thrive well psychologically. By using cases as examples, "Metacognitive Therapy – Free Yourself from Imprisoning Thoughts" shows us how metacognitive therapy can help us manage our thought processes. At the same time, this book is also a critical voice and warning about the evaluation culture we have created. A culture where more and more people are developing anxiety and depressive disorders because we are constantly under surveillance and must fit into certain schemas. We need to learn how to think for ourselves and be aware that we can regain control over our thought processes.
The author Linda Burlan Sørensen is a licensed clinical psychologist and specialist in psychotherapy and supervision. She is an expert in metacognitive therapy and owner of the Neokognitivt Institut in Copenhagen, Denmark, which offers therapy, professional courses, education, and supervision.
