Jose Fonseca – författare

Contemporary Psychodrama weaves together psychodrama and psychoanalysis with illustrative clinical examples, whilst preserving the essence of psychodramatic philosophy and methodology. Previously unavailable in the English language, this book presents José Fonseca''s diverse new approaches to psychodrama together with a blending of theories. The book is divided into clear sections, covering: * new approaches to psychodrama theory * new approaches to psychodrama technique* psychodrama and sexuality * the past and future of psychodrama. Fonseca''s innovative ideas include the adaptation of techniques originally intended for groups to individual psychodramatic psychotherapy. He distinguishes between not only the normal and the mentally ill but the normal and the optimal, and presents a detailed developmental psychology, inspired by Moreno and Buber, but clearly influenced by object relations theory.Contemporary Psychodrama presents the original concepts of a leading light of the Brazilian psychodrama movement that will be of great benefit to all professionals working with psychodrama.José Fonseca, M.D., Ph.D., was one of the pioneers of the psychodramatic movement in Brazil and a founder of the Brazilian federation of psychodrama. He has published two books in Brazil, Psychodrama of Madness and Relationship Psychotherapy.

This book presents cutting-edge work onthe most challenging research issues concerning intelligent transportationsystems (ITS), introducing selected, highly relevant advanced research onscheduling and real-time communication for vehicular networks, as well as faulttolerance, test beds and simulations for ITS. The authors define newarchitectures that support cooperative sensing in ITS and offer guidance forthe development of a reference end-to-end implementation. The presented resultsallow advanced traffic and travel management strategies to be formulated on thebasis of reliable and real-time input data. The effectiveness of these newstrategies, together with the proposed systems, is assessed in field trials andvia simulations.

The chapters in this book detail newresearch findings, algorithms, protocols, and the development of animplementation platform for ITS that merges and integrates heterogeneous datasources into a common system. In addition, they provide a set of advanced toolsfor the control, monitoring, simulation, and prediction of traffic that resultin safer, more sustainable, and less congested roads. 

Work undertaken within the framework of theFP7 project ICSI (Intelligent Cooperative Sensing for Improved trafficefficiency) is also included in the research activities addressed.
