Certainly, full-time paid employment takes up most of my time, and I am so grateful for that. Coming in close second, however, is mental health treatment. Appointments with psychiatrists/psychologists, mental health support groups, obtaining required blood work from the lab, filling pharmacy prescriptions, going to church, reading literature, and praying/meditating. Also common is doing volunteer work, helping friends and family with tasks, and listening to them when they are troubled. These activities give me positive thoughts that I am contributing to society and help keep me away from the negativity that has been a hallmark of my mental illness. Thus it has become a life that I truly believe is one worth living. In the early stages of recovery (the late 1990s) I did not share this view. But I survived those tumultuous days and have now entered into an expansive place where peace, even joy, is a common experience. The psychiatric and psychological treatments that have made this possible cost my mom, Gwen, a lot of money. Although, I have been able to remove this burden from her more recently. It occurred to me that if I could write a book delineating the various aspects of my treatment program, I could share these helpful concepts with others, virtually for free. That is the spirit in which this book is published, and I hope you can utilize it for increased mental health and well-being!

Описание: This edited collection reports the results of a comparative study of video surveillance/CCTV in Germany, Poland, and Sweden. It investigates how video surveillance as technologically mediated social control is affected by national characteristics, with a specific concern for recent political history. The book is motivated by asking what makes video surveillance "tick" in three very different cultural settings, two of which (Poland and Sweden) are virtually unexplored in the literature on surveillance. The selection of countries is motivated by an interest in societies with recent experiences of authoritarianism, and how they respond to the global trend towards intensified technical means of control. With thorough empirical studies, the book constitutes an important contribution to security studies, surveillance studies, and post-communist area studies.
