Fruit Fortification of Craft Beer
by Manju Nehra Nishant Grover K.S. Sandhu Rahul ThoryBeer has been one of the staples in alcohol consumption since the earliest civilizations. In the present day, beer is more popular than ever and shows no signs of decreasing in production volume and revenue generation. Some of the most popular craft beer types utilize fruit raw materials in their production, including wheat beers, porters, high gravity beers, stouts and Lambics. There have been multiple sources published over the decades focusing on beer brewing and brewing science, many of which do cover fruit fortifications and craft beer production. Due to the increasing popularity of fruit-fortified craft beers, an updated singular source is needed focusing on the use of fruit raw materials in the brewing process for various types of craft beer. Fruit Fortification of Craft Beer extensively outlines the use of fruits in the brewing and malting processes for all types of popular craft beers, outlining the latest technological and processing advances. Various fruit material additives are covered as are their specific uses in the brewing process, their characteristics and processing methods. The main types of craft beers which utilize fruit additives are covered including their chemical profiles and nutritional aspects. A major aspect of this book is the linking of the past and the future, examining how fruit has been used in beer fortification since ancient times and how the technologies and processing methods have advanced with the increasing popularity of locally-brewed craft beers. In focusing on these advances, this work brings fruit fortification in craft beers up to the present, providing an in-depth source for researchers and brewers.
Older South Asian Migrant Women’s Experiences of Ageing in the UK: Intersectional Feminist Perspectives
by Nafhesa AliDrawing on empirical research with older South Asian migrant women, this book puts forth new understandings on how older, settled, migrant women construct and understand age through recollections of key life course events that are structured around gendered positions. Divesting from a Western-centric view and applying a decolonial and Black feminist lens to ageing, the author presents intersectionality and transnational positionality as useful tools to connect old age, migration and memory in critical studies on aging. Chapters flesh out life course memories at different key stages and examines how the intersections of multiple markers of identity (race, gender, language, immigration status, age, etc.) shape how older South Asian migrant women understand and experience their lives. This book will be of interest to scholars with a focus on Gender Studies, Migration Studies, Ageing Studies, and Mobility Studies.

Handlungsorientierungen von Lehrpersonen im Umgang mit Unterrichtsstörungen: Eine Studie mit Lehrpersonen aus Schulen mit und ohne personalisierte Lernkonzepte
by Claudia MarusicIn diesem Open-Access-Buch untersucht Claudia Marusic anhand der Dokumentarischen Methode Handlungsorientierungen von Lehrpersonen aus Schulen mit und ohne personalisierte Lernkonzepte im Umgang mit Unterrichtsstörungen. Treten Störungen im Unterricht auf, sind Lehrpersonen oft gefordert, unter Affekt und Zeitdruck zu handeln. Im Umgang mit Unterrichtsstörungen werden ihre Wahrnehmung und ihr Handeln durch implizite, versteckte Orientierungen beeinflusst. Weiter nehmen unterschiedliche Unterrichtskontexte bzw. didaktische Arrangements eine zentrale Rolle bei der Produktion und Rezeption von Unterrichtsstörungen ein. Rekonstruiert wurden unter anderem drei Typen des Umgangs von Lehrpersonen mit Unterrichtsstörungen. Die Ergebnisse der Studie tragen zur gezielten Reflexion des Umgangs mit Unterrichtsstörungen bei und richten sich sowohl an interessierte Personen aus Forschung und Wissenschaft als auch an Lehrpersonenund Dozierende.
Re-visioning Cellphilming Methodology (Studies in Arts-Based Educational Research #10)
by Claudia Mitchell S. M. Hani Sadati Lisa J. Starr Shannon RoyThis book focuses on cellphilming as a participatory visual methodology in arts-based research and teaching. The book aims to advance critical perspectives—and re-visioning—in relation to the co-production of knowledge through cellphilming. Many of the chapters come out of an international virtual symposium hosted by McGill University in June 2022. It brings together authors working in a variety of interdisciplinary areas and settings including work with Indigenous groups in Canada, girls and women with disabilities in Vietnam, youth in conflict and refugee contexts in Mali, and Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights in Canada, Nigeria, South Africa, and India. Some of the re-visioning addressed in the collection takes up place as we work in new contexts and situations as we are seeing with the idea of ethnographies at a and in relation to COVID-19. The genres, the place of reflexivity, and even the timing of participatory engagement might vary as a result of using virtual platforms necessitated by distancing. Other re-visioning takes place as a result of work with new communities, or new age populations and aspects of intersectionality, looking across work with very young children and older adults. This book contributes to further decolonizing cellphilming methodology to support participatory work in new ways, and with underrepresented groups for whom finding new ways for engagement is key. A special feature of the book is its attention to work with International NGOs. Chapter ‘Cellphones beyond the workshop: Youth researchers owning gender transformative change through participatory visual research in rural India during COVID-19’ is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

Komorbidität: Symptome, Zustände, Verhalten und Behandlungen
by Einar Thorsteinsson Rhonda BrownDieses Buch stellt eine neue Theorie über die erhebliche Komorbidität vor, die zwischen vielen Krankheiten und Störungen und gleichzeitigen Symptomen wie Schmerzen, Schlafstörungen und Müdigkeit besteht. Zu den besprochenen Krankheiten und Störungen gehören Adipositas, Diabetes mellitus Typ II, medizinische Erkrankungen wie Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen und Schlafstörungen, Essstörungen sowie affektive Störungen (Angst und Depression). Das Buch geht davon aus, dass die Komorbiditäten das Ergebnis eines komplexen bio-psycho-behavioralen Mechanismus sind, der eine Störung des zirkadianen Rhythmus einschließt. Es untersucht methodische (z. B. Mess-) Probleme, die das Verständnis der Komorbidität erschweren können, und erforscht ein breites Spektrum neuer, bestehender und neu entwickelter Therapieansätze, die bei der Behandlung komorbider Störungen von Nutzen sein könnten.
Legal Culture, Sociopolitical Origins and Professional Careers of Judges in Mexico
by Azul A. Aguiar AguilarThis book explores the careers, professional trajectories and legal cultures of judges in the federal judiciary in Mexico. So far, there has been limited research on internal factors contributing to the understanding of judicial power dynamics in Mexico and other Latin American countries at large; this Work fills an important gap in the literature through its empirical investigation of internal legal cultures and judicial norms, offering new data, measurement strategies,and insights into the interactions between law, politics, norms, legal culture(s), as well as judicial behavior. Utilising an original survey, the chapters analyse judicial conceptualizations of role norms, legal cultures, proclivities for judicial activism, and judicial behavior. In so doing, this book contributes to understanding of underlying key internal factors of judicial activism or restraint, in turn moving forward the debate that seeks to explain judicial behavior reliant on internal and ideational perspectives. Complementing limited but existing studies of judicial politics in Mexico through its analysis of judges beyond those that sit at the Supreme Court, this book will be of particular interest to Latin-American judicial politics scholars due to its focus on the judicial power from internal perspectives as well as sub-national judges, filling a void in the literature vis-à-vis the study of courts in Latin America. This Work was originally written in Spanish, and the translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.

Brief CBT and Science-Based Tailoring for Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults (CBT: Science Into Practice)
by Eric A. Storch Thompson E. DavisThis book highlights the ongoing trend of brief treatments in psychotherapy for child and adolescent populations. Whereas their therapeutic predecessors may have taken 15 to 20 one-hour sessions or more, these newer therapies may begin to alleviate symptoms in only weeks, days, or even hours on the same day. Interest in child and adolescent brief and intensive therapies is currently at an all-time high on the heels of research showing impressive results for these interventions. Treatments such as One-Session Treatment for specific phobias which occurs in only one, three-hour session or Intensive Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy with Exposure and Response Prevention for obsessive-compulsive disorder which occurs 3-5 times weekly in 1-3-hour sessions over several weeks, are prominent examples. This volume builds on this growing interest and the emerging child and adolescent research, summarizing the efficacy of these interventions. Further, this volume will include key introductory chapters on the emergence of brief and intensive therapies, the ethics of their use, their cost-effectiveness, and the current state of the science. Brief therapies for specific disorders and via specific methodologies comprise separate chapters. Each chapter incorporates an exemplar case study (including a case overview, formulation/conceptualization, treatment description, follow-up, and recommendations for refractory cases). Also included are multicultural insights and ethical considerations. Furthermore guidance is provided on how to use the current and ongoing evidence base to inform formulation and treatment. This volume is timely and thorough in its presentation of the relevant literature and provides a much-needed resource for students, practitioners, and researchers alike. In a moment where youth mental health problems are on the rise, this is the book we need! Tara Peris, Ph.D. UCLA Like Superman squeezing coal into diamonds, Davis and Storch have compiled the definitive guide to brief, concentrated psychotherapy. Eli Lebowitz, Ph.D. Yale Child Study Center Davis and Storch score big in this edited volume on Brief, Intensive, and Concentrated treatments for a host of childhood problems.

Educational Research and the Question(s) of Time
by David R. Cole Mehri Mirzaei Rafe Gui Ying Annie Yang-HeimThis book fully explores the question(s) of time in educational research and achieves the acceleration and merging of inquiry with action to understand change and implement these findings through practice. It deals with the philosophy of education, higher education, schooling (the curriculum), time displacement, technology, the environment and policy. This book focuses on time revolution(s). It explores new ways of thinking about time, that question a linear/arrow in time, and sets into motion an educational research agenda to extract revolutions of time. Furthermore, this book figures the dimension of time in teaching and learning by extending and deepening the engagement with time in education. For example, it analyzes the climate crisis in terms of education and how the realization that the climate is changing sits parallel and adjacent to pedagogy. The climate crisis and how to do anything about it through education is an example of how considering the dimension of time opens up education beyond quick or narrow fixes and introduces a profound synthesis for the future.
Burnout in Social Work Field Education: Mitigating the Risk (SpringerBriefs in Social Work)
by Mary Powell Linda Riggs MayfieldThis book informs social work students about the context and potential for burnout in their field experience, their first work with clients, and equips them to recognize, prevent, and address it. With its emphasis on role ambiguity and self-care based on current research, the volume uniquely fills the gap in available texts and prepares them for successful professional practice with personal mental health. Job burnout and self-care have received attention in research and education in social work and other caring professions, but social work students must successfully complete managed learning assignments in the field before they can become social workers, and those experiences can put the student at risk for burnout. Until very recently, however, student burnout has been a 'silent' issue in the profession and the literature. With this compact book, readers learn the risks of burnout in field assignments for students and new professionals, the organizational andpersonal factors that contribute to it, appropriate self-care strategies to reduce its incidence, and effective coping strategies to limit its effect. Stakeholders gain understanding about burnout incidence, prevention, and self-care that prepares them to take appropriate preventive and prescriptive action. Burnout in Social Work Field Education: Mitigating the Risk is a timely and essential resource for social work instructors, students, field interns, instructors, and supervisors. It can serve as a supplementary text to aid students in understanding what factors will increase their risk of burnout and help them identify which coping strategies are most likely to be effective, based on research. It is a highly desirable complementary text for adoption in social work courses and in-service education in early social work practice. The book also should interest administrators in social service agencies and presenters of in-service education opportunities for social workers and social work educators.
Science for Humans: Mind, Life, The Formal-&-Natural Sciences, and A New Concept of Nature
by Robert HannaThis book presents and defends an original and paradigm-shifting conception of formal science, natural science, and the natural universe alike, that’s fully pro-science, but at the same time neither theological or God-centered, nor solipsistic or self-centered, nor communitarian or social-institution-centered, nor scientistic or science-valorizing, nor materialist/physicalist or reductive, nor—above all—mechanistic. It does this by presenting and defending what Robert Hanna calls the neo-organicist turn, including manifest realism and the three sub-parts of metaphysical organicism: liberal naturalism, mind-life continuity, and explanatory inversion, whereby mechanical systems are explained by grounding them in organic systems, and not the other way around. Or more briefly and simply put, the purpose of this book is to present and defend science for humans. As such, it will be highly interesting and profoundly relevant to graduate students and specialist researchers in philosophy and the formal-&-natural sciences.
