Abstract:
The risk behaviors that transmit HIV and complicate HIV treatment are often influenced by Axis II personality disorders and personality traits. There has been relatively little research, however, on the role of personality traits and disorders in HIV despite their stable, durable, and heritable influence on thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Certain traits, such as various types of extroversion and sensation seeking, appear to increase the likelihood of engaging in HIV risk behaviors, having poorer quality of life, and adhering to treatment regimens. Effective HIV prevention and treatment programs should consider specific personality traits that render some individuals more vulnerable to engaging in behaviors that endanger their health and the health of others. Recognizing these personality traits or disorders is useful in developing more specific, effective risk reduction strategies and improving overall health outcomes. This chapter describes personality traits and personality disorders that occur among HIV at-risk and HIV-infected individuals and the implications for HIV care.

Abstract:
As the United States and the world continue to experience unsustainable growth in the rates of chronic disease and rising healthcare costs, most urgently needed are upstream solutions—far before the point of people needing and seeking medical treatment. What is required to address this untenable situation is a shift in the underlying premises of the health and medical philosophies and infrastructure. This chapter will propose that an evidence-based solution lies in a convergence between an integrative approach to health and medicine and health literacy. That convergence inherently embraces cultural competency and leads health systems, healthcare professionals, and the people they serve to work together as a newly integrated whole that is greater than the sum of the parts.

Abstract:
Abstract Adolescents differ from adults physiologically, cognitively, and emotionally. This is a unique developmental period, characterized by a time of dramatic change in the life of every person in every corner of the world. The relatively uniform growth of childhood is suddenly shifted to an increase in the speed of growth and is characterized by rapid physical and psychological changes. It is important for emerging professionals who wish to work with this population to be familiar with the developmental issues and current trends in adolescent substance use and mental health disorders. Despite improvements in prevention and treatment services, adolescent substance abuse and co-existing disorders continue to be a major public health problem. Adolescent Co-Occurring Substance Use and Mental Health Disorders is a textbook on adolescent substance abuse and co-existing mental and behavioral disorders aimed at students seeking a degree or certificate as an addiction counselor. The book’s 13 chapters consist of an Introduction and three sections: Adolescent Development, Co-Occurring Disorders, and Interventions and Treatment. Each chapter includes core content, side-bar points of interest, summary highlights, discussion questions, and recommendations for more digging and curiosity. Several chapters include case vignettes. A learner’s test question bank is also provided.

Abstract:
This book analyzes the help-seeking behaviors of young urban street males who engage in prostitution. Use of formal resources consist of social agencies, professionals, and informal resources such as friends, family, and peers is described. The work also addresses one of the most pressing issues of our time: the AIDS crisis and its impact on young male prostitutes. Snell makes an important contribution to understanding this stigmatized and under-served population. This is the first book to study young male prostitutes' help-seeking behavior. Findings indicate that the majority receive high levels of emotional support from family and friends, while traditional social and mental health services are not effectively reaching street males.

Abstract:
Primary prevention has enormous potential to reduce the human, social, and economic costs of cancer worldwide. The following sections discuss the development and application of preventive interventions in six broad areas of public health: tobacco control, the prevention of obesity and physical inactivity, prevention of infection-related cancers, protection against excessive exposure to ultraviolet light, preventive drug therapies (chemoprevention), and the regulation of carcinogenic exposures. All of these areas affect multiple types of cancer and massive numbers of people. Different interventions are at varying stages of development. For example, effective, evidence-based approaches have been developed over several decades to reduce tobacco use, prevent chronic infection with hepatitis B virus, protect children from excessive sun exposure, regulate exposures in high-income countries, and reduce breast cancer incidence and recurrence in high-risk women. More recent efforts are seeking to identify upstream measures to prevent excessive weight gain, reduce caloric intake, and increase physical activity.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter lays out the major themes and context that will supplement discussion in the succeeding chapters. It considers the implications of the linkages between health and politics and what they might mean for America's present and future. At the same time the chapter also turns toward the past, to San Francisco's early public health initiatives, in order to illuminate ideologies and agencies concerned with human disease, public health, and medical practice. The chapter then launches into a broader discussion on emotions and sentiment—particularly of aversive emotions such as fear and disgust—in order to set up the context upon which this study is based—on the plasticity and contingency of emotion-driven behaviors as they manifest themselves in the moral and political judgments that human beings make in confronting and seeking to control contagious diseases.
