Recent Advances in Natural Language Processing
This volume is based on contributions from the First International Conference on “Recent Advances in Natural Language Processing” (RANLP’95) held in Tzigov Chark, Bulgaria, 14-16 September 1995. This conference was one of the most important and competitively reviewed conferences in Natural Language Processing (NLP) for 1995 with submissions from more than 30 countries. Of the 48 papers presented at RANLP’95, the best (revised) papers have been selected for this book, in the hope that they reflect the most significant and promising trends (and latest successful results) in NLP. The book is organised thematically and the contributions are grouped according to the traditional topics fou...
Psychology, Poverty, and the End of Social Exclusion
Laura Smith argues that if there is any segment of society that should be concerned with the impact of classism and poverty, it is those within the “helping professions”—people who have built their careers around understanding and facilitating human emotional well-being. In this groundbreaking book, Smith charts the ebbs and flows of psychology’s consideration of poor clients, and then points to promising new approaches to serving poor communities that go beyond remediation, sympathy, and charity. Including the author’s own experiences as a psychologist in a poor community, this inspiring book: Shows practitioners and educators how to implement considerations of social class and po...
Counseling and Psychotherapy with Arabs & Muslims
The long shadow of September 11 has awakened a widespread desire to understand more about Arab and Islamic cultures. In this book, a respected expert in the field provides a history of the region’s people and an exploration of their mental health issues, including the impact of western civilization in the Middle East and the negative reaction to western dominance among many Arabs and Muslims—plus two contributed chapters addressing Arab families in the United States and family therapy with Arab and Muslim women. “Deals directly with the consequences of simplistic stereotyping of Arabic and Muslim people following the 9/11 events and the threat of terrorism.” —From the Foreword by P...
Psychiatric & Behavioural Disorders in Children with Epilepsy
This report of the ILAE Child Neuropsychiatry Taskforce, Neuropsychobiology Commission, was published as an e-supplement in Epileptic Disorders (Volume 8, May 2016), educational journal of the International League Against Epilepsy. Psychiatric and behavioural problems are reported to occur in 35-50% of children with epilepsy. They affect the quality of the childrens and their families lives in a very challenging manner. The ad hoc Commissions and Taskforces of the International League Against Epilepsy are regularly following progress made in the field, also promoting a larger diffusion of existing knowledge and future research. The present report is a state-of-the-art critical review, putting together numerous data concerning topics such as epidemiology, pharmacotherapy, the effects of antiepileptic drugs and epilepsy surgery, the relationships between epilepsy and many psychiatric disorders. It also points out the specific areas in need of controlled trials, such as early diagnosis and management.

Girls' Talk
In this revealing insight into the lives of young women, initially published in 1998, contributors from across Australia (aged between 12 and 20) write about their lives, hopes, happiness and pain. Powerful accounts fill the pages as well as short poems and diary extracts. We learn of love affairs, rejections, inspiring friends, failed relationships, uplifting struggles to achieve their dreams or be accepted, the complexities of family life, the struggle to understand their sexuality, the quest for independence, and stories of overcoming obstacles and discrimination. In addition to the text, other highlights include the wonderfully droll humour of Judy Horacek's cartoons as well as photographs and illustrations from young women. In this second edition, a new introduction helps position the book for a new generation of readers.
Handbook of Resilience in Children
The third edition of this handbook addresses not only the concept of resilience in children who overcome adversity, but it also explores the development of children not considered at risk addressing recent challenges as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. The new edition reviews the scientific literature that supports findings that stress-hardiness and resilience in all children leads to happier and healthier lives as well as improved functionality across the lifespan. In this edition, expert contributors examine resilience in relation to environmental stressors as phenomena in child and adolescent disorders and as a means toward positive adaptation into adulthood. The significantly expa...
Principles of Complex Analysis
This is a brief textbook on complex analysis intended for the students of upper undergraduate or beginning graduate level. The author stresses the aspects of complex analysis that are most important for the student planning to study algebraic geometry and related topics. The exposition is rigorous but elementary: abstract notions are introduced only if they are really indispensable. This approach provides a motivation for the reader to digest more abstract definitions (e.g., those of sheaves or line bundles, which are not mentioned in the book) when he/she is ready for that level of abstraction indeed. In the chapter on Riemann surfaces, several key results on compact Riemann surfaces are stated and proved in the first nontrivial case, i.e. that of elliptic curves.
