Review & Description

The Government and Politics of the Middle East and North Africa continues to provide comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of the region’s critical contemporary events and issues. Invited specialists contribute authoritative overviews of the government and politics of each country in the Middle East and North Africa. As in previous editions, country chapters are systematically organized to address historical background, social and economic conditions, politics, and foreign policy, and each chapter features an updated data table for easy compare and contrast.

The sixth edition has been revised throughout to reflect recent substantial changes in the Middle East and includes seventeen new maps and a new introductory chapter on the region. In addition, the authors provide vital new considerations of major developments, including Iran’s nuclear policies; political dynamics in postwar Iraq; Israel’s post-Sharon politics; the fragmentation of Palestinian representation between Hamas inGaza and Fatah in the West Bank; as well as recent developments in Syria, Turkey, and Lebanon Read more

Customer tags: textbook, mental illness, psychology, college

Review & Description

Abnormal Psychology combines an emphasis on the excitement of research with an examination of the evolutionary perspective as a way to integrate biological and psychological explanations for abnormal psychology. Raulin uses three key themes to make psychopathology come alive for students: Excitement of Research--Because scientific research has consistently produced the most significant breakthroughs in understanding psychopathology, Abnormal Psychology presents information that has the strongest scientific background, rather than that which has the widest play in popular markets. Research is presented throughout the text--and highlighted in Examining the Evidence sections--to give students a feel for the research process and to help them appreciate the excitement of scientific discovery. Theoretical Perspectives--Raulin covers those theoretical perspectives that have had the greatest impact on our understanding of the disorders or have produced effective treatments. In addition, he includes a perspective normally left out of abnormal psychology texts - the cognitive neuroscience perspective.Evolutionary Impact-- Abnormal Psychology is the first text in the field to thoroughly examine the evolutionary perspective in addition to the other prominent theoretical perspectives used to explain abnormal behavior. The text shows how evolutionary theory has shaped modern psychology--both positively and negatively. Read more
