More Description

Included in this invaluable book is the work of several investigators and therapists who study suicide within their different specialties in order to learn what can be done to prevent it. These specialists seek action for the attention to, prevention of, and treatment for suicide, an act that, as a result of multiple investigations on the topic, is now understood to be not a simple action, but a collection of behaviors. Due to the fact that suicidal behavior is comprised of a variety of factors--biological, cultural, economic, genetic, political, social, psychological, and psychiatric--studying suicide requires one or several interdisciplinary approaches, some of which are explored in the indispensable resource.

Incluido en este valioso libro está el trabajo de varios investigadores y terapeutas que desde sus distintas especialidades estudian el suicidio para saber qué se puede hacer para prevenirlo. Estos especialistas buscan acciones para la atención, prevención y tratamiento del suicidio, un acto que, como resultado de múltiples investigaciones realizadas sobre el tema, se entiende hoy no como una acción simple, sino como una agrupación de comportamientos. Al estar el comportamiento suicida conformado por una diversidad de factores--biológicos, culturales, económicos, genéticos, políticos, sociales, psicológicos y psiquiátricos--estudiar el suicidio exige una o varias aproximaciones interdisciplinarias, algunas de las cuales se exploran en este indispensable recurso.
