Вулкан – одно из самых грозных и величественных творений природы. Испокон века вулканические извержения сеяли по миру страх, смерть и разрушения. Но люди, пренебрегая опасностями, продолжали жить рядом с вулканами, пытаясь понять и предсказать их поведение. Эта книга рассказывает о вулканах Камчатки. Действующих и потухших, молодых и старых, смертоносных и миролюбивых. Об их уникальном разнообразии, богатой истории, сложном характере и незабываемой красоте. Ведущая роль в этом рассказе принадлежит фотографиям. Они были сделаны в разное время, на разных маршрутах, разными по возрасту и профессиональной подготовке людьми. Наиболее редкие, информативные и выразительные снимки вошли в книгу. Текст, дополнивший фотографии, включает в себя как строгие научные данные, так и яркие, порой драматические, воспоминания, которыми поделились вулканологи. Не подлежит сомнению, что создание этой книги не было бы возможным без дружеского участия целого ряда неравнодушных к Камчатке людей. Именно им и выражает свою признательность автор.

“This book will be a valuable resource for psychologists and educators who work with children or adolescents who are having difficulties with memory and learning. Translating theory and research into practice is a talent that Dr. Dehn possesses and we will benefit from his professional skills.” – From the Foreword by Daniel C. Miller, PhD, ABPP, ABSNP, NCSP An indispensable guide that examines the effect of long-term memory functions on children's learning Long-Term Memory Problems in Children and Adolescents: Assessment, Intervention, and Effective Instruction is the first book of its kind for psychologists, school psychologists, and special education teachers who need an overview of long-term memory as it relates to learning and education. It presents the best practices for assessing long-term memory functions, as well as selecting and using evidence-based instructional practices with memory-impaired students. This useful and timely guide bridges theory and practice to provide professional guidance with coverage of: Risk factors that can lead to long-term memory impairments How long-term memory relates to other types of memory The subcomponents and processes of long-term memory and how they relate to academic achievement What is known about the neuroanatomy of how memories are formed The developmental trajectory of memory and learning Common types of memory dysfunction Memory assessment strategies, interventions for memory problems, and instructional practices that support memory Author Milton Dehn draws on his extensive experience as a trainer and workshop presenter, school psychologist, and educator to present both the theory and research on long-term memory in children and adolescents in this book. Specific step-by-step guidance and hands-on case studies enable professionals to identify how memory can be assessed as well as the interventions that can be linked to the results of the assessment.

This is the 136th volume of New Directions for Youth Development, the Jossey-Bass quarterly report series dedicated to bringing together everyone concerned with helping young people, including scholars, practitioners, and people from different disciplines and professions.
