Exposure Treatments for Anxiety Disorders is a unique volume, as it draws together the latest research on the rapidly-expanding field of anxiety disorders and illuminates how to correctly apply the proven methodology of behavioral therapy techniques to the variety of situations that face today's mental health professional. That said, cognitive therapy has in the last 10 years gotten increased attention as an alternative to behavior therapy in the treatment of anxiety disorders. But while it is gaining acceptance among practitioners, cognitive therapy has yet to illustrate substantial benefits above those that behavior therapy can already provide. In light of the aforementioned, coupled with the pressure many practitioners feel from managed care paradigms and shrinking healthcare coverage, this book will be a welcome resource allowing for increased clarity of action, accountability, and ultimately, positive client outcome. Each chapter is designed to address pivotal aspects in the assessment, formulation and diagnosis, and treatment of anxiety disorders, to a sufficient depth that the generalist practitioner will be comfortable using this book as a guide when working with the anxiety disordered client.

Gavin de Becker
1997
A carjacker lurking in a shopping mall parking lot. An abusive husband pounding on the door. A disgruntled employee brandishing a gun. These days, no one is safe from the specter of violence. But according to Gavin de Becker, everyone can feel safer, act safer, be safer -- if they learn how to listen to their own sixth sense about danger. De Becker has made a career of protecting people and predicting violent behavior. His firm handles security for many of Hollywood's top celebrities -- Madonna, Michael J. Fox, Geena Davis, Brooke Shields, and John Travolta, among others, according to press reports -- and his computerized risk-assessment system helps analyze threats to members of Congress and the Supreme Court. Now, in this unprecedented guide, de Becker shares his expertise with everyone. Covering all the dangerous situations people typically face -- street crime, domestic abuse, violence in the workplace -- de Becker provides real-life examples and offers specific advice on restraining orders, self-defense, and more. But the key to self-protection, he demonstrates, is learning how to trust -- and act on -- our own intuitions. For everyone who's ever felt threatened, this book is essential reading.

Le pouvoir… on le désire, on le craint, on s’en protège… « Le sentiment de n’avoir aucun pouvoir sur les gens et les événements est difficilement supportable : l’impuissance rend malheureux. Personne ne réclame moins de pouvoir, tout le monde en veut davantage. » Amoral, intelligent, impitoyable et captivant, cet ouvrage colossal condense 3 000 ans d’histoire du pouvoir en 48 lois. Véritable manuel de la manipulation, il analyse la quintessence de cette sagesse millénaire, tirée de la vie des plus illustres stratèges (Sun Zi, Clausewitz), hommes d’État (Louis XIV, Bismarck, Talleyrand), courtisans (Castiglione, Gracián), séducteurs (Ninon de Lenclos, Casanova) et escrocs de l’histoire. Certaines lois reposent sur la prudence (loi no 1 : Ne surpassez jamais le maître), d’autres demandent de la dissimulation (loi no 7 : Laissez le travail aux autres, mais recueillez-en les lauriers), d’autres encore une absence totale de compassion (loi no 15 : Écrasez complètement l’ennemi). Toutes ces lois trouveront des applications dans votre vie de tous les jours… Car, soyez en certain : le monde est une immense cour où se trament toutes sortes d’intrigues. Au lieu de nier l’évidence, tâchez d’exceller dans la course au pouvoir. Des extraits, des vidéos, des interviews de Robert Greene sur son site www.robertgreene.fr
