Book Synopsis Understanding Brain Aging and Dementia by : Lawrence J. Whalley
Download or read book Understanding Brain Aging and Dementia written by Lawrence J. Whalley and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 661 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life course method compares an individual's long-life and late-life behaviors to gauge one's mental decay. Arguing the life course approach is the best and simplest model for tracking mental development, Lawrence J. Whalley unlocks the mysteries of brain functionality, illuminating the processes that affect the brain during aging, the causes behind these changes, and effective coping strategies. Whalley identifies the genetic factors that determine the pace of aging and the behaviors, starting in childhood, that influence how we age. Through vignettes, charts, and tables, he composes an accessible book for patients, family members, and caretakers struggling to make sense of a complex experience.

Service Modelling: Provides a complete and illustrated overview of state-of-the-art concepts for service modelling, covering requirements and frameworks. Includes industry initiatives, conceptual frameworks, and the work of standardisation bodies. Discusses different modelling approaches, and the positioning of modelling of services in service management and in the wider operational context. Sets the modelling framework in the context of business drivers and modelling paradigms. Illustrates principles with real-world use cases, providing both fixed Internet and mobile network examples. Relates concepts to the work of TeleManagement Forum, giving practical examples throughout.

Book Synopsis There is No Such Thing as a Social Science by : Phil Hutchinson
Download or read book There is No Such Thing as a Social Science written by Phil Hutchinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The death of Peter Winch in 1997 sparked a revived interest in his work with this book arguing his work suffered misrepresentation in both recent literature and in contemporary critiques of his writing. Debates in philosophy and sociology about foundational questions of social ontology and methodology often claim to have adequately incorporated and moved beyond Winch's concerns. Re-establishing a Winchian voice, the authors examine how such contentions involve a failure to understand central themes in Winch's writings and that the issues which occupied him in his Idea of a Social Science and its Relation to Philosophy and later papers remain central to social studies. The volume offers a careful reading of the text in alliance with Wittgensteinian insights and alongside a focus on the nature and results of social thought and inquiry. It draws parallels with other movements in the social studies, notably ethnomethodology, to demonstrate how Winch's central claim is both more significant and more difficult to transcend than sociologists and philosophers have hitherto imagined.

Testimonies from digital platforms, fictional universes, examples from everyday life and from public and private organizations provide insight into the relationships between patients, caregivers and carers.
Download or read book A Labour of Love written by Janet Finch and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-24 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the realities of ‘community care’ – the unpaid care given by hundreds of thousands of women, often in their own homes – for children and adults who are handicapped or chronically sick, or for frail elderly people? Originally published in 1983, this book explores the experiences of such women and the dilemmas which ‘caring’ poses for them. At a time when most women needed to earn money from a paid job, how did ‘carers’ manage to juggle their caring and other domestic responsibilities, and what happened if they had to give up work? Against a background of government policies which favour care ‘by’ the community, the contributors to this book raise crucial issues for social and economic policy. Hilary Graham examines what caring really means and Clare Ungerson asks why women do it. Sally Baldwin and Caroline Glendinning focus on mothers with handicapped children and Fay Wright on single adults with elderly dependants. Alan Walker highlights the dependencies implicit in caring relationships with the elderly. Lesley Rimmer looks at the economic ‘costs’ of care, and Dulcie Groves and Janet Finch examine the invalid care allowance – a carers’ benefit for which married women can never qualify. In exploring the domestic sector of welfare, A Labour of Love was a highly topical contribution to the debate both on welfare provision and on the division of labour between men and women at the time.

Written by leading scholars from various academic disciplines, the chapters delve into the most topical aspects of aging today - including biological mechanisms of aging, aging with health, active and productive aging, aging with satisfaction, aging with respect, and aging with dignity.

Book Synopsis La corporalité du langage by : Robert Vion
Download or read book La corporalité du langage written by Robert Vion and published by Presses de L'Université de Provence. This book was released on 2012 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Le langage ne se ramène pas à des langues définies par une phonologie, une morphologie, un lexique et une grammaire. Quand un sujet parle c'est tout son corps qui s'exprime à travers des modalités comme son timbre de voix, ses intonations, une rythmicité dans le débit, une certaine posture, une gestualité des mains et du visage, la direction et l'intensité du regard, des attitudes particulières. La signification des énoncés s'exprime au travers d'actes d'énonciation caractérisés par cette multimodalité. Contrairement à une linguistique de type structural, la langue se trouve en quelque sorte incarnée, prise dans un corps qui communique. Cette corporalité n'est cependant pas appréhendée comme réductible au sujet individuel. Elle est en relation avec les manières culturelles de dire et de faire propres à chaque communauté ainsi qu'avec une approche interactionnelle selon laquelle le sujet s'adapte à ses interlocuteurs et aux situations dans lesquelles il communique."--P. [4] of cover.

Book Synopsis Making Sense of Voices by : M. A. J. Romme

Book excerpt: Just under 10 years ago, the authors triggered a seismic shift in the understanding of voice-hearing. They put the powerful case for accepting and validating people's own interpretations of their voices, and showed how such interpretations often enabled people to live with them far more effectively than bio-medical approaches. This handbook for practitioners builds on this work. It combines examples with guidance on the various processes involved in enabling voice-hearers to deal with their voices and lead an active and fulfilling life.
