The Lived Experience of Being Raised by Single Alcohol-Dependent Father
Author: Shotayo Gabriel Tejuosho Ph.DPublisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1543469434
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 139
Book Description
This researched work is titled The Lived Experience of Being Raised by Single Alcohol-Dependent Father. The study illuminates the experiences of the author and the coresearchers. It is hoped that professionals will have a greater understanding of children raised by single alcohol-dependent fathers. Even any alcohol-dependent individual reading this book will find the experience under discussion similar to his or her own. Thus, the book provides experience-based personal accounts of the researchers. The study while answering the research questions will indirectly assist the readers in developing both knowledge and awareness about alcohol-dependent fathers behaviors, attitudes, values, and biases. Consistent with transformation and self-understanding is the saying that states, To know others, one must first know the self. This research piece assisted the researcher and coresearchers to delve into self-dialogue, self-inquiry, and self-discovery, which will also help every reader toward self-evaluation and reassessment of values in life. Thus, the findings in the book will empower the readers toward self-awareness, a wider horizon, and the privilege to explore the significant human experience of being raised by a single alcohol-dependent father. The book is significant to other alcohol-dependent adults raised under the same conditions, as they can potentially learn from the lived experiences of the researcher and coresearchers. Therefore, this study considers the lived experience of single fathers in the context of alcohol dependence.

Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Why did critical health psychology emerge? How have categories of social class and gender impacted on social identities? Where can health policy go from here, and how will health psychology inform its development? With contributions from leading experts in the field, this book deepens our understanding of health psychology at a time where traditional approaches are being rethought. Covering contemporary issues and with a focus on both mainstream and non-traditional areas, including material on social identities and social class, gender, and leadership in the NHS, the book provides cutting edge coverage of theory and research. Crucially, the book considers how theory impacts on practice and how health psychology can ignite change in health policy. Covering important issues with clear and fresh insight, this is indispensable reading for students, researchers and practitioners of health psychology, health studies and public health.

Marginalised Voices in Criminology
Author: Kelly J. StockdalePublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1003850499
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
This book is about people who are marginalised in criminology; it is an attempt to make space and amplify voices that are too often overlooked, spoken about, or for. In recognising the deep-seated structural inequalities that exist within criminal justice, higher education, and the field of criminology, we offer this text as a critical pause to the reader and invite you to reflect and consider within your studies and learning experience, your teaching, and your research: whose voices dominate, and whose are marginalised or excluded within criminology and why? This edited collection offers chapters from international criminology scholars, activists, and practitioners to bring together a range of perspectives that have been marginalised or excluded from criminological discourse. It considers both obscured and marginalised criminological theorists and schools of thought, presents alternative viewpoints on ‘traditional’ criminal justice themes, and considers how marginalisation is perpetuated through criminological research and criminological teaching. Engaging with debates on power, colonialism, identity, hegemony and privilege, and bringing together perspectives on gender, race and ethnicity, indigenous knowledge (s), queer and LGBTQ+ issues, disabilities, and class, this concise collection brings together key thinkers and ideas around concerns about epistemological supremacy. Marginalised Voices in Criminology is crucial reading for courses on criminological theory and concerns, diversity, gender, race, and identity.
