Deftly combining clinical acumen with in-depth knowledge of sociopolitical currents, contributors present data and analysis on similarities and differences within the region, addiction issues in special populations (youth, mothers, immigrants), and the efficacy of local and international initiatives. New trends in evidence-based responses, including mental health services in war and disaster, are related to the larger goals of promoting peace. To that end, the editors go beyond the concept of shared problems to discuss strategies toward shared solutions, most notably psychological first aid as a healing approach to mediation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAmong the topics covered:\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrug abuse in the Middle East: promoting mutual interests through resistance and resilience.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToward uniform data collection and monitoring of Israeli and Palestinian adolescent drug use.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubstance abusing mothers: toward an understanding of parenting and risk behavior.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImmigration, acculturation, and drug use.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePsychological first aid: a tool for mitigating conflict in the Middle East.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollaborative approaches to addressing mental health and addiction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor health psychologists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, and addiction counselors, \u003ci\u003eMental Health and Addiction Care in the Middle East\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates the deep potential for mental health and social issues to be addressed to benefit all communities involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-12-01\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319415543\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-41556-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 194\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47411568279692,"sku":"9783319415543","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319415543.jpg?v=1775843062","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319415543","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
