Technology-Assisted Interventions for Substance Use Disorders
Author: Jonathan Avery
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031264452
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
This book examines the role of technology-assisted interventions for substance use disorders (SUD). It considers this topic alongside the dramatic increase in SUDs and associated harm in the United States’ past decade. Chapters relay the impact and effectiveness of technology-assisted interventions, which include telemedicine, assisted therapies, and support. These treatments not only offer practical care but also address the issue of access to care, particularly in the wake of the global pandemic (COVID-19). Organized into three sections, section one covers the use of telemedicine and technology-assisted therapies as it relates to the treatment of various SUDs, achieving recovery and maintenance. Each chapter will expand on a specific aspect of technology-assisted intervention. Following this, section two explores the differences in technology-assisted interventions and approaches while taking into account age, gender, sexuality, identity, and psychosocial factors. This section will be divided into chapters on children and adolescents, women and pregnancy, older adults, LGBTQIA+, and professionals. To close the book, section three discusses the media impact on SUDs and the legal technology adopted by drug courts. Unique and timely, Technology-Assisted Interventions for Substance Use Disorders is an invaluable resource to learners and practitioners in the field. It provides a concise yet comprehensive summary of the current status of the field that will help guide the implementation of technology-assisted interventions for all SUDs into practice and stimulate investigative efforts.

Pages : 269
Book Description
Rick Biesada picks up where the mundane Clinton biographers left off . . . or were too timid to delve into. He pulls no punches in his scholarly review of his encounter with Hillary, where he worked as a bouncer in a Chicago bar. Back in the old days . . . when we served alcohol to minors and bred red-blooded American men . . . not little pudgy nerds running around in fanny packs. Angry White Male and the Horse He Rode In On, was inspired in part by the Clinton Impeachment as a tribute to the House Managers. The disgusting bias and contemptuous farce from our elected officials and their parasitic cohorts in the media, showed that our nation would never be great again. The components are no longer there. We've lost our resolve. President Clinton wasn't on trial, our rule of law was on trial and these Jackasses disintegrated the defining moment' of our rule of law. Most citizens don't know about or care about our heritage now that we've evolved into a complacent society of victims. Fortunately, there are a few people still around to protect our freedom and sovereignty. This non-fiction book of political satire and factual history as witnessed by Mr. Biesada, [an education you'll never learn in school] is intended to restore hope and teach generations of Americans, who don't quite understand our heritage to get some order about themselves and hold our elected officials accountable when they violate the public trust.

More Than A Movie
Author: Miguel Valenti
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429983166
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
In More Than a Movie, producer and entertainment attorney F. Miguel Valenti presents a compelling argument for the creative community to consider the consequences of its products, from movies to TV to the Internet. Valenti refrains from attacking the industries in which he himself works, but argues for reflection on the part of those who create media. More Than a Movie takes a pioneering first step toward outlining the issues in an insider fashion, and provides the tools to make ethical decisions about creating for the big and small screens. Edited by veteran media writer Les Brown and media consultant Laurie Trotta, More Than a Movie is written to stimulate debate in professional and academic arenas, and for the enjoyment of everyone who loves entertainment. The book contains a foreword by noted author and director Peter Bogdanovich, and commentary from producers Christine Vachon and David Brown. Mediascope, a Studio City, California-based media policy organization, commissioned the book upon discovering that ethical discussions seldom occur in film and television schools, although they are staples for studying law, medicine, business and journalism. Issues range from ethnic and gender stereotyping to excessive and gratuitous violence."It's not about censorship -- it's about having a responsibility for what we do," says author Valenti (no relation to MPAA's Jack Valenti). "The book outlines how we are helping to shape societal values and individual behavior with the artistic choices we make." A team of writers from across the nation offer essays: Neil Hickey, editor, Columbia Journalism Review ; Annette Insdorf, Columbia University; Ted Pease, professor and columnist; Jack Pitman, Variety; Martin Koughan, Emmy Award-winning documentarian. The essays in More Than a Movie are interspersed with stories of actual ethical dilemmas told by noted screenwriters, directors and other practitioners in interviews by Manhattan writer Laura Blum.
