Which time series test should researchers choose to best describe the interactions among a set of time series variables? Providing guidelines for identifying the appropriate multivariate time series model to use, this book explores the nature and application of these increasingly complex tests. In addition, it covers such topics as: joint stationarity; testing for cointegration; testing for causality; and model order and forecast accuracy. Related models explained include transfer function, vector autoregression and error correction models.
Exposes the many flaws in Jungian analysis and methodology. This book criticises Jung's popular theory of the collective unconscious as an example of over-interpretation and a failure to examine the diversity of cultural evidence.
Uncovers manic depression as a hidden cause of dictatorship, war, and mass killing. In comparing these three tyrants, this work describes a number of behavioural similarities supporting the contention that a specific psychiatric disorder - manic depression - can be one of the key factors in such political pathologies as tyranny and terrorism.
Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this book presents an insightful exploration of the theoretical and practical advances in women's health care. The opening part examines the various shapes that a new framework in women's health might take. Such issues as using the male experience as the norm, reducing women to merely reproductive entities, and promoting the notion of biological primacy are addressed. In the second part, contributors carry the argument for reframing women's health into the sociopolitical arena, looking at women in the Third World and at integrating women's health into health care reform. Part Three examines significant issues dealing with reproduction and sexuality, while Part Four focuses on the impact of violence and abuse. Part Five covers research issues including clinical, behavioural, feminist and legal perspectives. In conclusion, practice issues such as provider-patient relationships, weight control and lesbian health are explored.

This collection makes an important contribution to contemporary feminist and psychological debates on identities and racisms. It addresses issues of commonalities, differences, subjectivities and the contradictory nature of positionings which are central concerns for feminist and anti-racist politics. Leading feminists examine: the ways in which psychology has reproduced racism; the complexity of issues of identities and racisms which are shown to be multiple, constantly variable and renegotiable; the need to problematize and unpack `whiteness'; and the problems of identity politics both in terms of explanatory power and political action.
