Handbook of multicultural perspectives on stress and coping

Has the developing world developed modern concepts of stress? Are coping methods the same around the globe? Such questions are not simple to answer, and until recently, few knew to ask them. In recent years, Western psychologists have recognized that their prevailing views of psychology do not always translate worldwide—and that no culture has a monopoly on either stress or coping. The Handbook of Multicultural Perspectives on Stress and Coping was created to address this realization. This unique volume moves beyond simple comparisons of behaviors in other countries by clarifying critical concepts in stress and coping, analyzing and synthesizing vast amounts of global data, and identifying constructs and methodologies necessary for meaningful cross-cultural research.

Handbook of Instruments in Dentistry

Instrumentation is an important aspect of surgical and dental clinical practice. The instruments have evolved over the period of time in terms of metallurgy, design and cost effectiveness. Many types of instruments are commercially available but it is a big dilemma for the clinician to decide as to which is the best. To optimise the clinical results, choice of proper instruments and its proper and effective utilization is of immense importance. This aspect is badly neglected in the curricula and no structured training is offered. The clinician develops the skill of instrumentation by self-perception or by imitation. The choice of instrument also varies from clinician to clinician as it depends upon the skill and convenience of the individual clinician.
