DOWNLOAD EBOOKBooks about the socialization of the dog have always been written from the perspective of humans who believe they understand me and my world. I have the courage to do it in this book instead from my perspective, from the perspective of a dog, because I am sure that I will understand my world better. Before the dog trainer Sascha Bartz socialized me, I was a socially incompatible "leash aggressor", as my master used to express himself. My constant tugging at the leash or the annoying barking were only two of the harmless behaviors that made every attempt to take a relaxed walk end in disaster. Biting attacks and even assaults on children were my fault, which is why the veterinary office had already kept an eye on me. In this book I explain the reasons for this behavior and the theoretical approach of a puristic socialization method that leads to success in the short term if the dog owners are well compliant. To understand the theoretical approach, however, it is necessary to understand the difference between education and socialization. Because ignoring them is the source of failure.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book offers a complete overview of the contributions of U.S. Latinos to American popular culture and examines the emergence of the U.S. Latino identity. According to the 2010 Census, Latinos represent more than 16 percent of the total population and are the largest and fastest-growing minority group in the United States. Their vast contributions to popular culture are visible in nearly every aspect of American life and are as diverse as the countries and cultures of origin with which Latinos identify themselves. This book provides a historical overview of the developments in U.S. Latino culture and highlights the most recent expressions of Latino life in American popular culture. With coverage of topics like Latino representations in television, radio, film, and theater; U.S. Latino literature and art; Latino sports stars in baseball, basketball, boxing, football, and soccer; and contemporary pop music; this book will appeal to general readers and be a useful and engaging resource for high school and college students. The work examines the cultural ties that U.S. Latinos maintain with their country of origin or that of their ancestors, explains why language is a critical cultural marker for Latinos, and identifies how Latinos are changing American popular culture. Insightful information on U.S. Latino identity issues and prevalent cultural stereotypes is also included.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book provides a clear and concise description of the multifaceted notion of psychotherapeutic competencies, building on years of research and training and informed by a systemic approach. Psychotherapeutic Competencies clearly describes methodological principles to guide both trainees and experienced therapists through the definition of four levels of systemic competencies and illustrates each principle with compelling clinical case material. The book emphasises the need for therapists to develop relational skills, which allow for the consolidation of a trusting relationship in which change can take place, as well as acquiring a set of methods and techniques. Psychotherapeutic Competencies encourages therapists of all levels of experience and therapeutic backgrounds to develop epistemological competency and to deepen their awareness of the extended contexts in which they operate and of the possible effects of their practice at a social and cultural level. This book will be essential reading for psychotherapists of all therapeutic backgrounds, in practice and in training, who wish to enhance their understanding of competency, context, and clinical skill. It will also be a key text for systemic and relational psychotherapists, trainers, trainees, clinical supervisors, and researchers.
