Throughout history, we have been intrigued and baffled by mental illness. Our confusion is nowhere more apparent than in the ways we have dealt with the mentally ill. We have tortured, exiled and burned them at the stake. Yet at other times we have supported, cared for and nurtured them. It is apparent that society has never quite known how to respond to the insane--whether to punish them for their acts or to pity them for their sickness. In an original look at the nature of mental illness and the distinction between sanity and insanity, Morris Rosenberg rejects most psychiatric, psychological and sociological theories. Instead, he defines insanity as "role-taking failure", the inability to grasp the thoughts and emotions of other human beings. According to Rosenberg, we characterize a person's ideas and behaviors as insane when we are unable to put ourselves in his place or to see the world through his eyes. If we can comprehend the reasons for a person's speech or action, we think of it as sane; if not, we consider it insane. He contends that it is society's confusion about the mentally ill, its inability to penetrate the unread mind, that actually defines mental illness. His radical thesis, that mental illness is characterized by society's response, not the individual's action, gives us a new way to look at a subject that has puzzled society for centuries.

DescriptionHave years of treatment for your mental health left you feeling confused and at a loss? Have you been diagnosed as anxious, depressed, or as having bipolar disorder and yet have found your treatment lacking? Do you have a loved one who struggles with managing their emotions, despite periods of lucidity (or, normal functioning)? Are you in a relationship with someone who makes you feel completely loved and then completely unwanted, seemingly without reason? It is in this liminal space where relationships are built where personality disorders manifest. When you have been prescribed antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication without relief, when you have tried changing and improving your circumstances, and when, after all this, there is still a feeling of being lost, restless, and an intense fear of being abandoned, then learning more about Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) may open the door to your truth.Personalities are the parts of ourselves we develop throughout a lifetime in order to interface with the world. However, what happens when traumatic events in early childhood shatter this fragile sense of self?BPD is a maladaptive pattern of behaviors created in childhood to negotiate a world that has deeply betrayed the security of the child. However, these patterns of behavior are destructive, to the self and others, in adulthood. BPD is a personality disorder that attempts to make sure that others will not abandon the sufferer--at any cost. For those close to someone with BPD, this means a life of chaos. As with all personality disorders, the effects of BPD are on a spectrum, and while some behaviors hold true for certain individuals, others may express certain behaviors to a lesser or more intense degree. What are important to spot are the hallmarks of BPD. Have you or your loved one ever felt:● Feelings of intense insecurity?● Low self-worth?● The inability to trust yourself to make clear decisions?● The inability to know what is best for you?● Paranoia?● Unstable relationships?● Emotional instability?● A severe reaction to real or perceived rejection?● An uncertain sense of self?If any of these markers read true for you, then this book is a must-read at the beginning of your journey.This book does not purport to be a stand-in for a medical professional and you should not approach reading as to diagnosis yourself or a loved one. What is of benefit is a better understanding of this complex disorder that most clinicians struggle to diagnose accurately. ● The first step to healing is awareness of BPD's intricacies and self-awareness. ● This book removes blame from those who suffer from BPD and those who live within its proximity. ● BPD is a battle for survival, and this book compassionately approaches the steps needed to cross the bridge from survival to a thriving life. Offering evidence-based research and anecdotal examples from BPDs and their loved ones, this guidebook shows how there can be optimism where there was once only confusion and despair. Are you ready for relief?

A practical and applied introduction to criminal justice Introduction to Criminal Justice: Practice and Process shows you how to think practically about the criminal justice system by offering you a proven, problem-based approach to learning. Bestselling authors Kenneth J. Peak and Tamara D. Madensen draw on their many years of combined practitioner and academic experience to explain the importance of criminal justice and show how key trends, emerging issues, historical background, and practical lessons can be applied in the field. New to the Third Edition: An emphasis on constitutional policing, legitimacy, and procedural justice stresses the importance for police to develop a “guardian” mindset over a “soldier” mindset. New discussions of contemporary criminological theories—such as social structure theories, social process theories, social conflict theories, feminist theories, and environmental criminology theories—provide you with a concise explanation on why people commit crimes and how to prevent them in the modern world. An in-depth view of three particularly challenging problems and policy issues—terrorism, the mentally ill population, and illegal immigration—demonstrate how today’s society and the criminal justice system are affected by these issues and what can be done to address the problems. New examples and case studies of ethical dilemmas illustrate today's climate of distrust, dissension, and dysfunction to encourage you to think critically about what is considered “ethical”. New video interviews with criminal justice professionals offer you career advice, provide you with insights into a variety of career paths, and discuss challenges and misconceptions of each profession.

"Dr. Duff has added the piece historically ignored by the mental health field. He interfaces elements of faith as effective responses to depression. Churches would greatly benefit from embracing Dr. Duff's reminder of our responsibilities to one another within the body of Christ. His portrayal of the Church as a family, a body and a community, and his appeal that it serves as a buffer during crises, is very timely. These principles, when followed, would assist members who are battling with depression to overcome their despair. And how much safer would members feel knowing that love, caring and concern are present. Dr. Duff has clearly shown that, in this context, we would need no other ticket to the privilege of belonging. Especially recommended for Churches." Ermine T. Leader, Ph.D., C. Psych. (Psychologist) "What Dr. Duff has to say about depression is very challenging, down to earth, but solid reading. Unlocking the Mystery of Depression has full psychological and theological insight." Vaudre, P, Jacques, D. Min, . (Counsellor, the senior Pastor of the Toronto East Church and Author of Six Dynamic Keys) Clarence Duff, Th.D., Ph.D. Originally trained in electronics engineering technology, Dr. Duff has pursued graduate and doctoral studies in Christian education, counselling psychology and Theology. He is a professor of Christian education and also lectures in counselling at Canada Christian College. Dr. Duff has a special interest in integrating psychological facts with theological truths. His graduate and doctoral degrees include: M.Div., Th.D. (Canada Christian College), M.A. (Liberty University), Ph.D. (California State Christian University).
