Humanities & Social SciencesDiagnosis of Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
by Jan Gysi
People with complex post-traumatic stress disorder often find themselves in a pattern of loss of control, helplessness, and dependency. A therapy that focuses on individual symptoms such as depression or a “simple” post-traumatic stress disorder often does not do them justice. Even more so when the wrong diagnosis is made due to false assumptions or a lack of information. What all must be ensured for the diagnosis to be made: is there a threat of intrafamilial or external violence? Is existential stability guaranteed during therapy? Are there investigations of legal proceedings in the background? With brilliantly structured overviews, this book helps even experienced diagnosticians to keep track of the variety of diagnostic options to be considered or ruled out and not to overlook anything.Axis I: Personality disordersAxis II: Specific stress-related disordersAxis III: Structural dissociation of personality: dissociativeand partial dissociative identity disorderAxis IV: Dissociative symptomsAxis V: Comorbid disorders For:• psychiatrists• psychologists• psychotherapists specializing in PTSD

Health & Personal DevelopmentOPD-3 - Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis
The Manual for Diagnostics and Therapy Planning
by Arbeitskreis OPD (Hrsg.)
The Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnostic (OPD) is a multiaxial psychodynamic diagnostic system that has become a widely accepted standard in psychodynamic diagnosis for clinical and research use. Numerous empirical studies demonstrate the validity of OPD findings. The clear operationalization, supplemented by case examples and working materials, makes essential components of psychodynamic models - illness experience, relational patterns, intrapsychic conflicts, availability about structural functions - reliably ascertainable.

Clinical psychologyJuly 2014Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis OPD-2
Manual of Diagnosis and Treatment Planning
by OPD-KJ Task Force
The Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis (OPD) is a form of multiaxial diagnostic and classification system based on psychodynamic principles, analogous to those based on other principles such as DSM and ICD. It is based on five axes: I = experience of illness and prerequisites for treatment, II = interpersonal relations, III = conflict, IV = structure, and V = mental and psychosomatic disorders (in line with Chapter V (F) of the ICD-10). After an initial interview lasting 1–2 hours, the clinician (or researcher) can evaluate the patient’s psychodynamics according to these axes and enter them in the checklists and evaluation forms provided. The new version, OPD-2, has been developed from a purely diagnostic system to include a set of tools and procedures for treatment planning and for measuring change, as well as for determining the appropriate main focuses of treatment and developing appropriate treatment strategies. Target Group: For psychodynamic psychotherapists, clinical psychologists, psychoanalysts, specialists in psychosomatic medicine, and psychiatrists.

February 1993Name und Notwendigkeit
by Saul A. Kripke, Ursula Wolf
Kripkes bahnbrechende Untersuchung Name und Notwendigkeit markiert einen Wendepunkt in der philosophischen Theorie der Eigennamen. In kritischer Auseinandersetzung mit der klassischen Theorie der Eigennamen entwickelt Kripke seine berühmte Alternative: die kausale Namentheorie. Sie besagt, daß der Bezug (die Referenz) eines Namens zunächst in einer Art Taufe festgelegt wird und dann in der Kommunikationsgemeinschaft tradiert wird. Dabei wird die Beschreibung, die bei der Festlegung der Referenz noch eine Rolle gespielt hat, irrelevant, so daß der Name selbst keinen semantischen Sinn hat. Namen sind, im Gegensatz zu Beschreibungen, sogenannte starre Bezeichnungsausdrücke (Designatoren), die, wenn einmal festgelegt, denselben Gegenstand in allen möglichen Welten bezeichnen. Daraus ergibt sich die Verbindung zum zweiten Thema der Untersuchung, der Notwendigkeit.

February 2025Wo der Name wohnt
Roman | Über das, was von einer Familie bleibt
by Ricarda Messner
»Lange dachte ich, Früher heißt das Land, aus dem sie kamen.« Hausnummer 36 und 37, hier in Berlin haben sie jahrelang in direkter Nachbarschaft gelebt. Als Kind spielte die Enkeltochter Tischtennis auf dem Glastisch im Wohnzimmer der Großeltern. Als Erwachsene löst sie deren Wohnung schließlich auf, bringt Besteck, Töpfe und Musikkassetten nach nebenan zu sich. Und sie will noch etwas bewahren: Levitanus, den Familiennamen. Der Wunsch, den Namen wieder anzunehmen, begleitet sie nicht nur im Alltag, sondern führt sie auch nach Riga. Sie folgt den Worten ihres Urgroßvaters Salomon und findet ein Fenster im ehemaligen Rigaer Ghetto, das eng mit ihrer Familiengeschichte verknüpft ist – und sie zeichnet die Bewegungen von vier Generationen nach, vom sowjetischen Lettland der siebziger Jahre bis nach Deutschland. Ricarda Messner erzählt in ihrem Debütroman vom Ort ihrer Erinnerungen, kehrt immer wieder zurück zum Leben in zwei Wohnungen, nähert sich Verlusten und Lücken, verbindet Heute und Gestern. Wo der Name wohnt lässt so zärtlich wie klar eine Familie aufleben und bewahrt ihre Geschichten.

How historians know Shakespeare was Shakespeare
by Susan Dwyer Amussen
A compelling tour of Shakespeare's England that makes a powerful contribution to the 'authorship question'. How do we know Shakespeare was Shakespeare? Could a glover's son who left school at fifteen really be the author behind such masterpieces as Hamlet, King Lear and The Tempest? Yes! says historian Susan Amussen. She transports readers back to early modern England, to travel the path that carried William Shakespeare from humble origins in Stratford to literary greatness on the London stage. This was a society undergoing rapid change. Grammar schools made education in Latin and Greek available to commoners, while touring players brought the latest dramatic productions to the masses. And in London, a metropolis filled with European visitors, ordinary people had the opportunity to see courtly life up close. No serious historian doubts that Shakespeare was the author of the plays that bear his name. Susan Amussen shares what they know: that Shakespeare's England was a complex and cosmopolitan place, with everything a talented young playwright needed to develop his craft and furnish his imagination.

Roman | Der neue grandiose Pageturner von der Autorin des Weltbestsellers »Das Geisterhaus«
by Isabel Allende, Svenja Becker
Eine Frau auf der Suche nach Wahrheit, Liebe und ihren Wurzeln 1866 erblickt Emilia del Valle in San Francisco das Licht der Welt – sie ist die Tochter einer irischen Nonne und eines chilenischen Aristokraten, großgezogen wird sie von ihrem liebevollen Stiefvater, in einem ärmlichen Viertel in San Francisco. Von klein auf eigensinnig, beeindruckt sie wenig, was andere für richtig halten, ihre große Leidenschaft ist das Schreiben. Siebzehnjährig veröffentlicht sie, unter männlichem Pseudonym, erfolgreich Groschenromane, doch das echte Leben findet sie abenteuerlicher und wird Reporterin bei einer Zeitung. Ihr Kollege ist Eric, ein junger Mann mit großer Strahlkraft, und gemeinsam gehen sie nach Chile, in das Land ihrer Vorfahren, über den sich anbahnenden Bürgerkrieg zu berichten. Emilia und Eric kommen sich näher – ist das Liebe? –, und während Emilia immer tiefer in die Geschichte ihres Vaters eintaucht, gerät sie selbst zwischen die Fronten: Sie muss sich nicht nur der Gefahr, sondern auch den drängenden Fragen nach ihrer eigenen Herkunft stellen. Mein Name ist Emilia del Valle ist die Geschichte einer Frau, die über alle Konventionen hinweg ihren eigenen Weg zu gehen versucht, ein fesselnder historischer Roman über schmerzhafte Liebe und unverbrüchlichen Mut – erzählt von einer der »Meistererzählerinnen unserer Zeit« (Vogue).

Can the healthcare system still be saved?
by Peter Schaar
— Ways out of the digital disaster — For healthcare professionals and informed patients Modern information technologies can and should contribute to improving the quality and transparency of medical care and making healthcare more economical – and all for the benefit and well-being of patients. Well, that would be the noble approach. All the talk about health insurance cards, telematics infrastructure and electronic patient files stirs up emotions. Peter Schaar, long-standing Federal Data Protection Commissioner, brings light to the dark data and health thicket. Why are innovations in the healthcare sector met with great scepticism by many stakeholders? How can we speed up the development and implementation of meaningful ITsupported solutions? What role does the narrow, small-scale regulatory framework play – not only, but also in data protection?
