Why People Die by Suicide

Name: Why People Die by Suicide
SKU: POS058490

$69.99 Standard

In his theory of suicidal behavior, Thomas Joiner proposes three factors that mark those most at risk of death: the feeling of being a burden on loved ones, the sense of isolation, and, perhaps chillingly, the partly genetic and partly learned ability to hurt oneself. He tests the theory against diverse facts taken from clinical anecdotes, epidemiology, genetics, and neurobiology, with implications for the full spectrum of clinical activities related to suicidality.

Here's What You'll Learn

Conceptualizing and evaluating suicidal behavior from a new perspective
Exploration of approaches to suicide risk assessment
Overview of interventions for suicidal behavior
Investigation of research on suicide prevention
In-depth understanding of bereavement related to suicide
