Sommario/riassunto

"Jerry Parkinson spent nearly ten years, from 2000 to 2010, as a member of the NCAA's Division I Committee on Infractions, participating in over one hundred major infractions cases. He came away from that experience--and the experience of reading extensive commentary on infractions cases--with the conviction that most observers do not understand the NCAA's rules-enforcement processes very well, even though many major cases receive enormous public attention. "Infractions" aims to help readers understand how the enforcement processes really work. Parkinson uses his insider's perspective, along with stories, to show the NCAA's rules-enforcement processes"--

Sommario/riassunto

The book takes a new look at self-harm, focusing particularly on the under-explored area of `hidden' self-harming behaviour. These behaviours may not be immediately identifiable as self-harm by counsellors, therapists or their clients, but Turp shows how recognition and understanding of hidden self-harm can improve practice with



those affected.
