The International Handbook of Suicide and Attempted Suicide
Recent research in the area of suicidology has provided significant new insights in the epidemiological,psychopathological,and biological characteristics of suicidal behaviour. The International Handbook of Suicide and Attempted Suicide is the first book to bring together this expertise and translate it into practical guidelines for those responsible for policy issues and for those involved in the treatment and prevention of suicidal behaviour. Leading international authorities provide a truly comprehensive and research-based reference to understanding, treating, and preventing suicidal behaviour. They explore concepts and theories which best guide work within this field and detail key research which has supported conceptual developments, preventive interventions and clinical treatment. "No self-respecting worker in deliberate self-harm and suicide prevention, either clinical or research, can afford to be without access to this comprehensive handbook - possession and regular use, may well become a marker of serious involvement in the subject! ...This is the most comprehensive, up-to-date, informative and well-written source of information on sucide and suicidal behaviour...an invaluable work of reference which will be essential for clinicians and researchers for many years to come." —Andrew Sims, Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry, St James's University Hospital, Leeds, UK - British Journal of Psychiatry
Early Identification and Intervention of Suicide Risk in Chinese Young Adults
This book presents a concise introduction to the contemporary research and practice of suicide prevention, and it addresses the cognitive and neurological aspects of suicide. With the inclusion of extensive thought-provoking material, this book is of great value to clinicians, researchers, educators, students, and anyone who are broadly interested in suicide assessments and interventions. The authors' overview of different theories of suicide is also particularly useful for anyone aiming to understand and appropriately respond to the suicidal behavior of individuals, in particular, young adults and students. The erudite authors' analysis of the research topics within suicide makes this book valuable to educators, students, and researchers who care about prevention and protection from suicide. As the book addresses common issues in treating individuals at risk of suicide, this represents an essential resource for anyone working with this high-risk population. Since this substantive and authoritative book shows for the first time how innovative tools such as neuroimaging tools and mobile apps can be used in suicide intervention, this book is a useful resource for all those interested in keeping up-to-date with recent research and practice in suicide.
