"How in the world did she get involved with him?". "Why has she chosen yet another problem man?". Women often do not adequately define for themselves what "dangerous" is, and many women ignore their own warning signals during the early phases of meeting men or dating them. Educated and professional women as well as high school girls often date five or six dangerous men before they learn to avoid them. They do not figure out WHO they should not be dating and HOW they can know this early on. HOW TO SPOT A DANGEROUS MAN BEFORE YOU BECOME INVOLVED helps women of any a

This Handbook's content provides a definitive overview of the research knowledge base for adolescent substance abuse, the most significant social problem of adolescence. Its contributors are leading researchers in their fields, making the volume unique in the breadth as well as depth of its coverage. Topics covered range from basic neuroscience to genetics to behavioral precursors and correlates, to social relationships, to cultural variation, to clinical correlates, to social policy. The Handbook's comprehensive scope and the depth of its analysis make it suitable both as a text for graduate level courses as well as a core reference for professionals in the field.

This Handbook explores the origins, development, and course of substance use as it emerges and unfolds in adolescence. Given the large causal network involved in adolescent substance use and abuse as well as its powerful impact, both at the time of use and in terms of the long term outcomes and complications of use, the domains covered by this volume range from infancy to adulthood, and from molecular genetics to social policy. The book is organized into eight sections, beginning with a review of the conceptual framework. It explains why a developmental framework is essential in understanding the adolescent period and goes on to discuss the epidemiology of substance use and abuse. It then examines the similarities and differences among the different drugs of abuse, namely: nicotine, alcohol, marijuana, prescription drugs, and other illicit drugs.

Tesis doctoral inédita leída en la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Departamento Interfacultativo Música. Fecha de lectura: 14-09-2017 ; La teoría herderiana del Volksgeist, apoyada por el concepto de Weltliteratur de Goethe, provocó una primera oleada de hispanismo filológico cuyos textos, derivados de los romances y poesías antiguas castellanas, sirvieron de inspiración a los músicos europeos, quienes se envolvieron culturalmente dentro del movimiento inicial del Volkslied. Dicho movimiento fue anterior y distinto a los intereses del exotismo español que surgió unos años más tarde y que fue alimentado y orientado por cuestiones de índole social y política. La presente tesis doctoral tiene como objetivo principal el estudio de las obras del repertorio liederístico del primer Romanticismo que utilizaron como base de inspiración textos o temáticas tomados directamente o indirectamente del Romancero español. La metodología utilizada para el estudio de más de 370 Spanische Lieder, chansons espagnoles y Spanish Airs que han sido localizados en sus primeras ediciones en los distintos archivos y bibliotecas europeos, ha partido de los conceptos de diversidad desarrollados por Victor Segalen en su l'Essai sur l'exotisme de 1917. A través de una exhaustiva documentación histórica, literaria y musical, se ha procedido a examinar las diversas maneras en que los poetas, traductores y compositores entendieron y representaban a España y a los españoles en cada etapa histórica y según los cambiantes acontecimientos sociales, culturales y políticos. Dentro de la diversidad de obras estudiadas, se ha podido observar una evolución de tipologías según el progresivo grado de contacto con "lo real" (conocimiento real de España, de los españoles y de sus músicas): desde los primeros Volkslieder, romances y Spanish Airs basados exclusivamente en los estudios filológicos del Romancero, pasando por las Balladen épicas más desarrolladas basadas en romances idealizados, y llegando finalmente a los boléros, mélodies y Lieder con intenciones exóticas. La diversidad de temáticas y estilos, tanto literarios como musicales, de los diferentes repertorios estudiados ha precisado la formulación de un marco teórico propio que pudiese contemplar la causalidad de la creación literario-musical con sus diversos significantes y significados (topoi), así como la recepción y la realimentación que dicha recepción provocó en sus nuevos y cambiantes contextos sociopolíticos. ; Herder´s theory of Volksgeist, supported by Goethe´s concept of Weltliteratur, provoked an initial wave of philological interest in texts derived from Spanish romances and ancient Castilian poetry, and served as an inspiration to European musicians, who became culturally involved in the Volkslied movement. This movement was previous to and different from the interests of Spanish exoticism which arose some years later and which was influenced and oriented by questions of a social and political nature. The main objective of this dissertation is the study of the works of the Lied and song repertoire of early Romanticism which was inspired and based upon texts or themes taken directly or indirectly from the Spanish Romancero. The methodology used for the study of over 370 Spanische Lieder, chansons espagnoles and Spanish Airs that have been located in their first editions in different European archives and libraries, has been based upon the concepts of diversity as developed by Victor Segalen in his l'Essai sur l'exotisme of 1917. Through an exhaustive historical, literary and musical documentation, important advances have been made on the subject of the various ways in which poets, translators and composers understood and represented Spain and the Spaniards within each historical period and according to the changing social, cultural and political events. Within the diversity of the musical works which have been examined, it has been possible to observe an evolution of the characteristics of the individual pieces, based upon the progressive degree of contact with "the real" (real knowledge of Spain, of the Spaniards and of their music): from the first Volkslieder, French romances and Spanish Airs in English, initially based on the philological studies of the Romancero, on through the more developed epic Balladen based on idealized romance texts, and finally arriving at the boléros, mélodies and Lieder with exotic intentions. The diversity of themes and styles, both literary and musical, of the different repertoires studied has made it necessary to formulate a theoretical framework which could examine the causality of the literary-musical creation with its various signifiers and meanings (topoi), as well as the reception and the feedback that this reception brought about in the new and changing socio-political contexts of the 19th-century.

Die US-amerikanische Psychotherapeutin möchte Frauen dabei helfen, "gefährliche" Männer frühzeitig zu erkennen, um sich gar nicht erst auf sie einzulassen oder die Beziehung zu beenden, so lange dies noch ohne gröe︢re Probleme möglich ist. Sie ist davon überzeugt, dass die meisten Frauen durchaus Warnsignale wahrnehmen, diese jedoch aus verschiedenen Gründen ignorieren oder verdrängen. Zu den gefährlichen Männern gehören für sie nicht nur gewalttätige und misshandelnde, sondern z.B. auch "emotional nicht verfügbare", psychisch kranke und süchtige Männer. Insgesamt 8 Männertypen von der "Klette" über "das ewige Kind" bis zum "heimlichen Räuber" ist jeweils ein Kapitel gewidmet, in dem Brown nicht nur deren typische Verhaltensweisen beschreibt und Fallbeispiele schildert, sondern auch darstellt, welche Frauen besonders gefährdet sind und welche "Verteidigungsstrategien" hilfreich sein können. Auch wenn einige Ausdrücke (eventuell übersetzungsbedingt) merkwürdig klingen, alles in allem neben dem eher unterhaltsamen "Scheisskerle" von R.M. Koidl (BA 6/10) überall einsetzbar. (2)
