Living With and Beyond Cancer Across the Lifespan
Living with and beyond cancer has become a more common feature in recent decades due to technological advances in cancer treatment. However, cancer survivors of different ages and from different cultures have distinctive needs. The risk of cancer-related complications should be assessed and managed. Prehabilitation and rehabilitation are thus important care components for cancer survivors, pre-, during, and after treatments. This Research Topic focuses on people's experiences of living with cancer and living with the side effects of treatments. In addition, patients of all ages are affected by the fear of recurrence or fear of progression after treatment is completed. The impact of living wi...
Individual Differences in Addictive Behaviors
The study of addiction draws primarily on methods and approaches to understanding, treating and supporting addiction drawn from traditional approaches. The foundations of which focus on responses seen across groups, but often neglecting to account for the role the individual differences plays in understanding and treating addiction. It is clear from the literature that there is often a lack of consensus in both understanding and treating those struggling with addiction. Individual differences therefore, whilst not always conforming to the accepted model for developing theoretical interpretations and practice in the field, are key to successful outcomes in treating addiction.
Resilience Process and Its Personal and Social Bases
This book is to elucidate personal and social bases for personal resilience, thus addressing the issue concerning the predominance of social factors in shaping resilience. Essentially, the book starts with a clarification of resilience as a phenomenon rather than a trait. The clarification also identifies the personal bases in terms of the resilience process, which specifies belief about resilience as a precursor to learning about resilience, action for resilience, and resilience successively. To justify the personal and social bases, the book expounds the analytical-functionalist framework to specify voluntaristic and deterministic mechanisms to perform the four requisite functions of goal ...
Digital Immigrants and Media Integration
In Digital Immigrants and Media Integration: The Smartphone Is the Synthesizer, Sally J. McMillan draws insights from the lived experience of digital immigrants who are Baby Boomers and who grew up without digital mobile technologies and have transitioned to become smartphone users. McMillan traces key points in media evolution that shaped the communication tools that digital immigrants use today, demonstrating that continued incremental change has led to a shift in focus from media types to media interfaces, with smartphones becoming ubiquitous and indispensable – the smartphone, she posits, is now firmly tied to identity. Although the telegraph was the first medium to allow the message t...

Handbook of Death and Dying
Dying is a social as well as physiological phenomenon. Each society characterizes and, consequently, treats death and dying in its own individual ways—ways that differ markedly. These particular patterns of death and dying engender modal cultural responses, and such institutionalized behavior has familiar, economical, educational, religious, and political implications. The Handbook of Death and Dying takes stock of the vast literature in the field of thanatology, arranging and synthesizing what has been an unwieldy body of knowledge into a concise, yet comprehensive reference work. This two-volume handbook will provide direction and momentum to the study of death-related behavior for many ...
