Since its appearance in Zuccotti Park New York in September 2011 the Occupy movement has spread to hundreds of towns & cities across the world. No longer occupying small tent camps the movement now occupies the global conscience as its messages spread from street protests to op-ed pages to the highest seats of power. From the movements onset Noam Chomsky has supported its critique of corporate corruption & encouraged its efforts to increase civic participation economic equality democracy & freedom. Through talks & conversations with movement supporters " Occupy" presents Chomskys latest thinking on the central issues questions & demands that are driving ordinary people to protest. How did we get to this point? How are the wealthiest 1 per cent influencing the lives of the other 99 per cent? How can we separate money from politics? What would a genuinely democratic election look like? How can we redefine basic concepts like growth to increase equality & quality of life for all? " Occupy" is another vital contribution from Chomsky to the literature of defiance & protest & a red-hot rallying call to forge a better more egalitarian future. Noam Chomsky is the author of numerous bestselling political books including " Hegemony or Survival" " Failed States" " Interventions" " Perilous Power" " What We Say Goes" " Imperial Ambitions" " Making the Future" " How the World Works" & " Hopes & Prospects" all of which are published by Hamish Hamilton/ Penguin.

The OCD Workbook is not intended as a substitute for psychiatric or psychological treatment by a qualified mental health professional. Rather it should be used in the following ways: 1. In conjunction with ongoing psychiatric or psychological treatment. For example you may be seeing a highly qualified professional who does not specialize in treating OCD. This book can be used to assist your therapist in the role of coach guide or advisor as you work through the steps toward getting control of your OCD...2. By people reluctant to seek professional help for one reason or another. You may have a desire to learn as much about OCD as possible using this book as a guide for self-directed intervention. If you think you have OCD we urge you to see a mental health professional who is experienced in the diagnosis & treatment of OCD. A psychiatrist or psychologist can confirm an OCD diagnosis & help you decide if self-directed cognitive-behavior therapy is appropriate for you.

Just as it is not recommended that a doctor treat his/her own family for other diseases we do not recommend that family members take on the role of psychotherapist using this book even if trained as therapists. However family members can provide valuable support as the person with OCD works through the self-help process outlined in this book. Chapter 4 describes how a trusted friend or family member can play the role of behavioral assistant. ...
