El consumo de sustancias en adolescentes es un desafío de salud pública en España. El inicio en el consumo de alcohol y tabaco se sitúa en torno a los 13-14 años. A pesar de que los consumos han ido descendiendo a lo largo de los ultimos años, la prevalencia de los mismos puede considerarse todavia preocupante. La permanencia de dichos consumos, la socializacion de los mismos entre los jovenes, conlleva a pensar en la necesidad de nuevas estrategias que informen mejor de los riesgos de dichos consumos. Asimismo, hay una preocupacion creciente por las llamadas adicciones comportamentales, sobre todo las que se relacionan con el uso intensivo de internet y de las redes sociales. Esta obra colectiva recoge una serie de trabajos academicos sobre el consumo de sustancias y adicciones comportamentales en jovenes y adolescentes españoles, realizadas por investigadoras/es y expertas/os en este ambito de estudio. Se presentan tanto investigaciones originales como analisis de bases de datos existentes desde un enfoque sociologico. El texto ha sido coordinado por el Dr. Angel Belzunegui-Eraso, de la Universidad Rovira i Virgili, investigador principal del proyecto Prevencion del consumo de drogas y juegos de azar en adolescentes: la paradoja de la informacion. El caso de Tarragona. (INFOPREV), financiado por la Agencia Estatal de Investigacion en la convocatoria del 2019. Los textos que aparecen aqui se dirigen a especialistas en el estudio de las adicciones pero tambien a la sociedad en general, con el objetivo de aportar conocimiento sobre el fenomeno del consumo de sustancias en jovenes españoles y de la emergencia de nuevos consumos y adicciones, particularmente las relacionadas con el uso de las redes sociales y/o del juego online.

El primer libro en el mundo, sobre Retirada exitosa de los medicamentos psiquiátricos. Millones de personas consumen psicofármacos como Haloperidol, Prozac, Risperidona o Zyprexa. Para ellos estas historias en detalle, de como otros lograron abandonar los psicofarmacos sin que eso provocara una crisis y el regreso al consultorio medico, son de interes fundamental. En "Dejando los medicamentos psiquiatricos" dieciseis personas de Alemania, Australia, Colombia, los EE.UU., Hungria, Inglaterra, Irlanda, Nueva Zelanda, los Paises Bajos, Suecia y Suiza y por primera vez, un familiar escriben acerca de sus experiencias con la abstinencia. Asimismo, diez profesionales trabajando con psicoterapia, medicina, psiquiatria, trabajo social, naturopatia e incluso en albergues relatan como ayudaron en el proceso de la retirada. +++ "Este libro es una lectura obligada para cualquier persona que considere el tomar o no hacerlo, estos medicamentos o drogas psicotropicas legales, y quiza mas aun para aquellos que los prescriben." (Dr. Loren R. Mosher, Asociados Soteria, San Diego) +++ "El libro tiene un mensaje provocador: las experiencias de vida a veces difieren de los acuerdos cientificos. Con base en las experiencias personales de (ex-) usuarios y sobrevivientes de la psiquiatria y los pocos profesionales que ayudan a la gente a dejar las drogas psiquiatricas, el libro es un buen espacio para abrir la discusion. El libro debe estar disponible en cada practica medica, en cada area terapeutica y en la biblioteca de todos los pacientes."

Desde la publicación de La teoría polivagal en 2011, Stephen Porges ha recibido muchísimas peticiones para hacerla más accesible. Este libro es el resultado de esas solicitudes."La Guía de bolsillo de la teoria polivagal, ofrece a los clinicos perspectivas practicas y profundas del importante marco polivagal de Stephen Porges que iluminan como las intrincadas estructuras del cerebro en interaccion con el mundo social que nos rodea moldean nuestras vidas. En este libro tan util se encuentran palabras de sabiduria de un cientifico brillante y bondadoso que aporta a nuestro trabajo nuevas y poderosas aplicaciones basadas en investigaciones cuidadosas y conceptualizaciones que pueden transformar la forma en que llevamos a cabo la practica de la psicoterapia". Daniel J. Siegel, MD, director ejecutivo de Mindsight Institute."La Guia de bolsillo de la teoria polivagal, es un trabajo historico, una explicacion cientifica lucida de como la capacidad de nutrirnos es la base misma de nuestra naturaleza. Porges explica como la seguridad y la reciprocidad estan codificadas biologicamente, definiendo la calidad de nuestras vidas. La seguridad basica es esencial no solo para tener relaciones satisfactorias, sino tambien para activar de manera optima las estructuras cerebrales superiores responsables de la creatividad y la capacidad de generacion. Al definir las caracteristicas basicas de seguridad como unas sensibilidades viscerales internas que definen como lidiamos con la amenaza y nos acercamos a nuestro entorno, Porges nos invita a revisar nuestro enfoque de seguridad desde cercas, detectores de metales y monitores de vigilancia hasta utilizar el cableado fundamental de nuestros cerebros, incluidas nuestras voces y nuestros rostros, para organizar nuestras vidas, nuestras familias y nuestras instituciones. Este libro muestra como la mayoria de los problemas psiquiatricos se expresan en fracasos de sintonia y reciprocidad y, al explicar los fundamentos biologicos de la reciprocidad, ofrece una guia de metodos innovadores para adquirir un sentido de seguridad, mutualidad y pertenencia".Bessel van der Kolk, MD, Director Medico del Trauma Center de JRI, Profesor de Psiquiatria de la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad de Boston, autor del bestseller El cuerpo lleva la cuenta."La Teoria Polivagal es uno de los mapas mas importantes y exhaustivos que informan la terapia clinica de trauma. Los estudiantes de la terapia de trauma se veran muy enriquecidos con este trabajo reciente. Lo que hace que esta exploracion profunda sea aun mas atractiva son los animados dialogos en los que la gran sabiduria de Porges se vuelve aun mas accesible para todos aquellos interesados en la busqueda de seguridad ante las amenazas y los traumas". Peter A. Levine, PhD, creador de Somatic Experiencing.

Esta obra expone las prácticas clínicas y los replanteamientos de muchos profesionales que sostienen aproximaciones holísticas, humanistas, relacionales o biopsicosociales de la psicosis, en contraste con las corrientes biologistas, dominantes en la psiquiatria. Intenta, tambien, aportar datos reveladores y puntos de vista controvertidos para que los profesionales instalados en el paradigma biologico puedan intentar revisar certezas a veces ilusorias. Se trata de un compendio de articulos novedosos acerca del valor de los psicofarmacos en el tratamiento de las psicosis, las creencias populares acerca de la locura y el estigma, asi como consideraciones sobre como deberian evolucionar los servicios de acuerdo con un nuevo modelo o paradigma interactivo, biopsicosocial o relacional de la psicosis y de la locura.
