Utvärdering är idag en institutionaliserad och professionaliserad aktivitet som genom att bidra med kunskap om offentliga verksamheters måluppfyllelse, kvalitet, nytta och kostnad utgör en grundpelare i en fungerande demokrati. Samtidigt finns en växande kritik som bygger på att utvärdering, med ett alltför ensidigt fokus på mätbarhet, har blivit både tidskrävande och kommit att producera massiva kunskapsflöden med oklar användning.Utöver denna kritik har samhälleliga förändringar, som digitalisering, och komplexa samhällsproblem, som klimatförändringar, fattigdom och gränsöverskridande kriminalitet, tvingat både beslutsfattare och utvärderare att agera i okänd terräng. Bokens övergripande syfte är att lyfta fram och diskutera vilka konsekvenser dessa utmaningar kan tänkas få för utvärderingars praktik och funktion i politik och förvaltning.I Utvärdering i en osäker tid bidrar en grupp erfarna utvärderare och utvärderingsforskare med var sitt kapitel till ett kvalificerat samtal om utvärdering, främst inom offentlig sektor men även i privata och ideella sammanhang. Boken vänder sig till studenter och yrkesverksamma som i sitt framtida eller nuvarande arbete behöver förhålla sig till planering, genomförande och/eller användning av utvärdering.

Now in its second edition, Therapeutic Change with Difficult Clients describes a common factors model for understanding and activating the process of change with challenging clients. For therapists, the most difficult clients to treat are often those who have little interest in change. Whether they believe that change is a waste of time, or a threat to their personal freedom or sense of being, the difficulty of treating such clients reveals the limits of typical approaches to psychotherapy. A thorough understanding of the true nature therapeutic change is often the most important step toward improving psychotherapy effectiveness. The CHANGES model, which has been significantly expanded and updated since the first edition of this book, is founded on the seven precursors of change, which are identified, assessed, and activated in the context of therapeutic encounters. The authors examine the capacities of individuals to generate therapeutic change, identify the barriers to change, and discuss the power of therapists to catalyze the change process using a variety of well established techniques. In addition to updated supporting literature, the authors discuss recent advances in neuroscience and the cognitive sciences, as well as new developments in the interpersonal aspects of therapeutic engagement.

Hanna and Barbera: Conversations presents a lively portrait of Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera, the influential producers behind Tom and Jerry, the Flintstones, Scooby-Doo, the Smurfs, and hundreds of other cartoon characters who continue to entertain the world today. Encompassing more than fifty years of film and television history, the conversations in this volume include first-person accounts by the namesakes of the Hanna-Barbera studio as well as recollections by artists and executives who worked closely with the pair for decades. It is the first collection of its kind about Hanna and Barbera, likely the most prolific animation producers of the twentieth century, whose studio once outflanked its competitor Walt Disney in output and influence.Bill Hanna fell into animation in 1930 at the Harman-Ising studio in Los Angeles, gaining skills across the phases of production as MGM opened its animation studio. Joe Barbera, a talented and sociable artist, entered the industry around the same time at the wild and woolly Van Beuren studio in Manhattan, learning the ins and outs of animation art before crossing the country to join MGM. In television, Hanna’s timing and community-oriented work ethic along with Barbera’s knack for sales and creating funny characters enabled Hanna-Barbera to build a roster of beloved cartoon series. A wide range of pieces map Hanna and Barbera’s partnership, from their early days in Hollywood in the 1930s to Cartoon Network in the 1990s, when a new generation took the reins of their animation studio. Relatively unknown when they made over one hundred Tom and Jerry theatrical cartoons at MGM in the 1940s and 1950s, Hanna and Barbera became household names upon entering the new medium of television in 1957. Discussions here chart their early primetime successes as well as later controversies surrounding violence, overseas production, and the lack of quality in their Saturday morning cartoons. With wit, candor, insight, and bravado, Hanna and Barbera: Conversations reflects on Bill and Joe’s breakthroughs and shortcomings, and their studio’s innovations and retreads.
