Thisbook provides readers an extensive overview of recent progress in basicand clinical research on cancer immunotherapy. This book covers five major topics, including monoclonalantibodies, biological response modifiers, cancer vaccines, adoptive cellulartherapy and oncolytic viruses.

In diesem Buch erfahren Psychotherapeuten, wie sie die Gefühle ihrer Klienten mit einfachen Atemübungen aktivieren können. Mit kontrollierten Atemübungen können Klienten auf erstaunlich einfache Weise lernen, Gefühle intensiv wahrzunehmen, auszudrücken und zu regulieren. Lars Theßen zeigt Praktikern außerdem auf, wie sie mithilfe dieses oder ihres eigenen Therapieansatzes systematisch und nachhaltig mit ihren Klienten arbeiten. Sie können die zu wenigen, zu schwachen und zu seltenen Gefühle aufbauen und fördern bzw. die zu vielen, zu heftigen und zu häufigen Gefühle regulieren. Das Vorgehen ist für Einzel- und Gruppentherapie gleichermaßen geeignet. Materialien stehen auf der Autorenwebsite zum kostenfreien Download zur Verfügung.Der InhaltÜbungen vorbereiten - wir stimmen uns einWir üben jetzt - mit dem Körper fühlenDie ZielgruppenPsychotherapeutinnen und -therapeuten, psychotherapeutisch tätige Ärztinnen und Ärzte und Psychologinnen und Psychologen in Klinik und PraxisDozierende und Studierende im Fachgebiet PsychotherapieDer AutorDr. med.

This volume addresses the conditions allowing the transformation of specific children's rights into capabilities in settings as different as children's parliaments, organized leisure activities, contexts of vulnerability, children in care.

This collection covers how success and well-being relate to each other in early career development in the domains of employment and education. The volume presents articles on success and well-being in applied contexts, such as well-being as an individual resource during school-to-work transition, or well-being and success at the workplace.

This book provides a general approach to elaborate and analyze learning processes within work environments. It explores analysis on the boundary between working and learning in various contexts and with various methodological approaches.

It presents new research on psychosocial factors at work from an Asia Pacific perspective, introducing exciting new research on workaholism, bullying, work-life balance and conflict, work demands classifications, and psychosocial safety climate.

- The nature of the relationship among family caregivers, professional caregivers and the care recipient are embedded in their interaction and dynamics influenced by the internal and external variables that inhibit or facilitate the care situation.

Environmental education (EE) and education for sustainable development (ESD) are asserting their growing role in curricula around the world, yet how deeply embedded are they in the learning systems of the Pacific nations?

Measurement plays a fundamental role both in physical and behavioral sciences, as well as in engineering and technology: it is the link between abstract models and empirical reality and is a privileged method of gathering information from the real world.Is it possible to develop a single theory of measurement for the various domains of science and technology in which measurement is involved? This book takes the challenge by addressing the following main issues: What is the meaning of measurement? How do we measure? What can be measured?A theoretical framework that could truly be shared by scientists in different fields, ranging from physics and engineering to psychology is developed. The future in fact will require greater collaboration between science and technology and between different sciences. Measurement, which played a key role in the birth of modern science, can act as an essential interdisciplinary tool and language for this new scenario.A sound theoretical basis for addressing key problems in measurement is provided. These include perceptual measurement, the evaluation of uncertainty, the evaluation of inter-comparisons, the analysis of risks in decision-making and the characterization of dynamical measurement. Currently, increasing attention is paid to these issues due to their scientific, technical, economic and social impact. The book proposes a unified probabilistic approach to them which may allow more rational and effective solutions to be reached.Great care was taken to make the text as accessible as possible in several ways. Firstly, by giving preference to as interdisciplinary a terminology as possible; secondly, by carefully defining and discussing all key terms. This ensures that a wide readership, including people from different mathematical backgrounds and different understandings of measurement can all benefit from this work. Concerning mathematics, all the main results are preceded by intuitive discussions andillustrated by simple examples. Moreover, precise proofs are always included in order to enable the more demanding readers to make conscious and creative use of these ideas, and also to develop new ones.The book demonstrates that measurement, which is commonly understood to be a merely experimental matter, poses theoretical questions which are no less challenging than those arising in other, apparently more theoretical, disciplines.

The focus of the book is on different ways of knowing: the western scientific way (reductionist, dualistic and materialist) versus the indigenous approach (holistic, non-dualistic, and spiritual).
