January 2026

Introduced in the first year of physiotherapy studies, biomechanics forms the fundamental basis that every student must assimilate and understand. This reference manual, encompassing the entire biomechanics curriculum for physiotherapy and osteopathy studies, emphasizes the understanding and purpose of knowledge in a field rarely approached from this perspective. It serves as a prelude to therapeutic action, supported by simple mechanical references and illustrated with numerous examples. Its pedagogical design facilitates knowledge acquisition: the content covers the entire musculoskeletal system of the human body (lower limb, upper limb, trunk, neck, and even the head, which is rarely addressed elsewhere); the chapter structure allows for easy memorization thanks to a pragmatic approach. Each region is thus studied according to the same plan: foundation for reflection, anatomical review, mobility, statics, dynamics, and constraints. The more than 1,000 figures aid in understanding the behavior of often complex structures.

Psychosocial rehabilitation encompasses practices designed to promote the recovery of individuals with severe mental health disorders (schizophrenia spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder, severe personality disorders, etc.) or autism spectrum disorders. It focuses on identifying their resources, including cognitive ones, and strengthening their decision-making and action capacities. Bringing together a considerable amount of data, this seminal work, edited by Professor Nicolas Franck, allows readers to grasp the complexity, diversity, and richness of this discipline, which offers hope for both its users and professionals. It connects theoretical aspects with assessment and treatment programs and practical organizational structures. More than 200 authors contributed to its writing. Each of them, whether a professional (research professor, psychiatrist, neuropsychologist, clinical psychologist, occupational therapist, nurse, peer support worker, or network coordinator), a person affected by mental illness, or a family member, is particularly representative and recognized in their respective field. This book thus presents a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the reflections, research, and therapeutic approaches (psychoeducation, cognitive remediation, social cognition training, employment support, peer support, caregiver support, etc.) deployed in the field of psychosocial rehabilitation.

Violences, 1e

Violence

Mathieu Lacambre
Elsevier
784 pages
ISBN: 9782294783739
February 2026

Violence, in its many forms, is a complex phenomenon involving, among others, mental health professionals, who are called upon to assess violent behavior and provide care for both perpetrators and victims. To account for the complexity and diverse forms of violent behavior (self-harm or aggression towards others, violence perpetrated or suffered, intentional or unintentional, psychological or physical, isolated or part of a mental disorder), this book, coordinated by Dr. Mathieu Lacambre, addresses the issue of violence as a symptom, exploring its various manifestations and expressions according to the context and the individuals involved, in order to move beyond the often-established divisions between different forms of violence.
