Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Sixteen-year-old Lenny's life has never been good, and there was nothing he could do about it-until the opportunity came to escape.Raised in Chicago by a single mother and coming out of COVID-19 isolation, Lenny is faced with the fallout of Momma's drug conviction. Sent to live with grandparents in rural Illinois, he does what he always does: keeps his mouth shut and makes the best of it. He helps in the garden, mows the yard, takes care of the dog, and is Grams's canning helper. He's always agreeable, even when Paps rails against the government and vaccines. Still, he can't wait until Momma's released and they're back in Chicago. When school starts, Lenny's ready, if only to get out of the house. Any hope for change for the better, however, evaporates when Grams and Paps get COVID. Lenny wants to get them help. 'It's no one's business,' they say. He's left to care for them and fend off the school attendance lady and a nosy history teacher. That is, until Misty, the sullen blond-haired girl the next farm over, takes an interest in him. She reads him like a book. Then again, Lenny recognizes her family's struggle and that, like him, she has no one to turn to. He knows he can't do anything about any of it, except break the chain linking him to it.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - As widespread social transformations have been paralleled by gains in health and life expectancy through public health and other improvements, a variety of other challenges to health have emerged, particularly in lifestyle related, behaviourally mediated changes in rates of chronic disease. Hormones, Health and Behavior looks at the relationship of human biology and human society at the intersection of behavior, hormones and health. There is both scientific interest and practical urgency behind the ideas and findings presented here, as the need for a socio-ecological view of function and well-being has become more apparent. This book documents an emerging understanding of how hormones create linkage between behavior or social life and health. It will inform graduate students and researchers interested in human sciences, human development, anthropology, epidemiology, public environmental and reproductive health.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The authors offer a unique exploration of the formative effects of children's early life experiences, with an emphasis on interactions among neurodevelopmental, behavioural and cultural dynamics. Multidisciplinary case studies focus on specific periods of development, or windows of susceptibility, during which care giving and other cultural practices potentially have a long-lasting impact on brain and behaviour. Chapters describe in detail: how social experience interacts with neurodevelopmental disorders; how epigenetic mechanisms mediate the effects of early environment; the interaction of temperament and environmental influences; the implications of early life stress or trauma for mental health and well-being; and the cultural shaping of sexual development and gender identity. The final section translates insights from this work into a fresh appraisal of child-rearing practices, clinical interventions and global public health policy that affect the mental health and well-being of children around the world.…
