'...it should be made standard reading for those dealing with disaster/survival situations, it is also very informative in helping the general reader understand the psychology of survivors...The text makes compulsive reading and the book is hard to put down. It is worth examining, no matter where your professional interest lies.'- Duncan MacPaul, Nursing Times. Why do so many people die without need? How can an exceptional few survive extraordinarily harsh conditions sometimes after months or years of deprivation? Recent years have seen remarkable improvements in survival training and technology, yet most people still perish quickly in the face of adversity. In this book John Leach seeks to answer these questions by considering the psychology of human survival; how groups and individuals behave before, during and after life threatening events. Both short and long-term survival are addressed as well as the psychological consequences of hunger, thirst, cold, heat, crowding, isolation, fatigue and sleep deprivation. The essence of this work is distilled into a set of principles for psychological first-aid for use in the field.

Explodes the myth that the cause of death can be attributed to loss of moral fiber or lack of will to survive. Leach gives good practical advice on the psychological first aid needed to survive. -Chris Brooks, Chief Medical Officer, Canadian Air Force In circumstances of extreme stress and deprivation, why do some survive while others perish? In this primer on the psychological aspects of human survival, John leach draws on dramatic historical and contemporary incidents of disaster to provide an engaging look at survival psychology under the harshest physical and psychological conditions. Focusing on such factors as hunger, thirst, cold, heat, crowding, isolation, fatigue, and sleep deprivation, and on their psychological consequences, Survival Psychology reveals much about the short and long term effects of disaster on the human psyche.

The authors, two sociologists who taught at Durham Prison, describe the subjective experience of a group of long-term offenders in a maximum security environment, and their adaptation to prison routines and demands. They describe inmate life with examples such as : always under the eye of a TV camera, sleeping with a light on all night, and spending ten years sewing mail bags. Also discussed are its effects, including inmate fears of psychological deterioration and reactions to disrupted emotional relationships. The new introduction, written for this edition, discusses the development of British penal policy over the intervening ten years, and documents the increased growth of the long-term penal population. Chapter 9, also written for the second edition, discusses the fate of the authors' research plans and the nature of other research on long-term imprisonment. A new Postscript by one of the prisoners described in the study comments on how the research looked to its 'objects'.

"The Psychology Student's Career Survival Guide is designed to aid students in identifying their ideal career pathway and imbuing them with the right tools and skills to not only achieve their desired job, but to progress and thrive within the workplace. The first half of the book focuses on how to find and get a suitable job. The remaining chapters explore gaining success at workplace in terms of personal growth, navigating criticism, workplace relations and the critical job assignments that every graduate should pursue. Forsythe, an experienced Organisational Psychologist, helps students recognize and apply the acquired psychological skill set to develop a personal brand, increase personal visibility and develop professional networks. This smooths the transition from university into the world of work, by developing effective working practices that will support personal performance and that of the workplace. This book can also serve as a practical guide for academics looking to bridge the gap between the developing student at university and demands of their future employers. It explicitly calls for vocational elements such as communication, team-working, goal setting and planning within the curriculum. This engaging book comes with an abundance of resources to support students' individual development and to help academics run workshops. These resources include tool kits which include self-diagnostic tools and strengths finders, networking skill development, job search strategies, difficult interview questions, personal branding etc. This is an essential text for psychology students at all levels looking for employability guidance, and for psychology academics who are seeking supportive resources and guidance on helping students achieve their career ambitions"--
