  • Preliminary Book Information
    Learning Landscape Ecology: Concepts and Techniques for a Sustainable World (2nd Edition) Editors: Sarah E. Gergel, University of British Columbia Monica G. Turner, University of Wisconsin Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected] Rationale Landscape ecology continues to grow as an exciting discipline with much to offer pressing and emerging problems in environmental science. Much of the strength of the discipline is in its ability to address challenges over large areas, over the scales at which decision-making often occurs. As the world has begun to address more issues related to sustainability and global change, the need for this broad perspective has only increased. Furthermore, spatial data and spatial analysis (the focus of the discipline of landscape ecology), are at the core of analyzing the land cover changes seen world-wide. While spatial dynamics have long been fundamental to conducting terrestrial conservation activities, land management, and reserve design, mapping and spatial themes are also becoming increasingly recognized as fundamental to ecosystem management in aquatic, coastal and marine systems. For these reasons, there is great demand for training in spatial analysis tool accessible to a wide audience. The earlier edition of this book: Learning Landscape Ecology: A Practical Guide to Concepts &Techniques, edited by Gergel and Turner, was the first “hands-on” teaching guide for landscape ecology. The first book of its kind, it provided experience with a diversity of tools and software in the field. The text has sold over 5,000 copies world-wide, used at more than 55 universities, and a 2nd printing was published in 2006.

  • External Mindfulness, Secure (Non)-Attachment, and Healing Relational Trauma: Emerging Models of Wellness for Modern Buddhists and Buddhist Modernism
    Journal of Global Buddhism Vol. 17 (2016): 1-21 Research Article External Mindfulness, Secure (Non)-Attachment, and Healing Relational Trauma: Emerging Models of Wellness for Modern Buddhists and Buddhist Modernism Ann Gleig, University of Central Florida Much scholarly attention has been devoted to examining the incorporation of Buddhist-derived meditations such as Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) into psychotherapeutic and medical settings. This paper approaches the cross-fertilization of Buddhist and therapeutic notions of wellness from the opposite direction by exploring Dharma Punx teacher Josh Korda’s interweaving of psychoanalytic developmental theory and affective neuroscience into his Buddhist teachings. Korda provides a useful case study of some of the main patterns emerging from psychotherapeutically informed American Buddhist convert lineages. One of these, I argue, is a “relational turn,” a more context-sensitive approach to individual meditation practice and an increasing interest in developing interpersonal and communal dimensions of Buddhist practice. In conclusion, I consider what Korda’s approach and this relational turn suggests in terms of the unfolding of Buddhist modernism in the West. Keywords: Buddhism; Buddhism in America; Buddhism and Psychoanalysis shaved-headed man covered in bright tattoos and dressed casually in a green t-shirt and black sweat pants sat comfortably, one leg over another, in a chair at the front of the room.

  • Running Head: WHY YOUR PAIN MUST NOT EXIST 1
    Running head: WHY YOUR PAIN MUST NOT EXIST 1 WHY YOUR PAIN MUST NOT EXIST: BIAS & PHENOMENOLOGY AT THE ENDS OF MEDICINE by Shane Trudell A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Counselling (MC) City University of Seattle Vancouver BC, Canada site May 28, 2020 APPROVED BY Colin James Sanders MA, PhD., Thesis Supervisor, Counsellor Education Faculty Arden Henley MA, Ed.D, Faculty Reader, Counsellor Education Faculty Division of Arts and Sciences WHY YOUR PAIN MUST NOT EXIST 2 Abstract Interrupting bias in counselling psychotherapy is critical to ethical practice. This paper demonstrates how the scientific method, for all its utility in health and medicine, also functions as a worldview and a personal bias which is antagonistic to the lived experience of some clients. This personal and individual level of analysis contributes to the critical psychology literature which has typically focused on the historical and institutional roles of science in counselling therapy. Using the case of irritable bowel syndrome it is demonstrated how individual practitioners can become engaged in conflict when client lived experiences take practitioners to the ends of medical knowledge. In this zero sum conflict, the survival of one world view means the other must not exist. I suggest that by acknowledging and attending to the anxieties of this encounter, counselling therapists can enhance their capacity to perform ethical and productive care work. I point to radical empiricism as a methodology that can support less biased client engagement without practice becoming less scientific or less expert. WHY YOUR PAIN MUST NOT EXIST 3 Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest appreciation to my thesis supervisor Colin Sanders.
