Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. When a coach's and athlete's paths cross, magic can happen.Luis Rivera was an undiscovered gem of an athlete walking through his small college cafeteria.Dr. Charles J. Infurna was a young, inquisitive volunteer coach still trying to find his way in the profession.Together, their partnership weathered storms and grew to unparalleled success in the hammer throwing ring, transforming each of their lives in the process--including long after Rivera graduated and left track and field.Readers are invited to witness the intricate dynamics of the coach-athlete relationship, where trust, respect, and mutual understanding lay the foundation for greatness.Dr. Infurna vulnerably shares his coaching journey, from a difficult first job that piqued his interest in getting the most out of his athletes to the challenge of coaching a national-caliber thrower like Rivera. Along the way, Dr. Infurna had to test his own assumptions and self-confidence in finding what it meant to be a "lightgiver."With a memoirist's touch, Dr. Infurna unveils layers of growth in each chapter, personally and professionally, and shows the evolution of his coaching philosophy, shaped by trials, failures, and ultimately, triumphs. Dr. Infurna combines a coach's empathy and a researcher's curiosity with a sportsman's passion to unveil the profound influence of the coach-athlete dynamic on athletic performance, offering insights that transcend the boundaries of sport.Insightful and deeply inspiring, The Throwing Circle is a testament to the power of mentorship, resilience, and the extraordinary possibilities that emerge when fate and dedication intertwine.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The literature on post-traumatic growth (PTG) has been instrumental in highlighting the human capacity to overcome adversity, illuminating the different pathways people may follow when confronted with adversity. Although the theme of strength from adversity is central to many disciplines and certain cultural narratives, these claims lack robust empirical evidence. This literature gap can be traced to a reliance on retrospective assessments for methodology anddifficulty in determining which outcomes are most appropriate for studying PTG. Redesigning Research on Post-Traumatic Growth offers new directions for PTG research. The bookillustrates the benefits of research designs that incorporate multiple methods of assessment and highlights the value of integrating various disciplines, such as philosophy and multiple areas of psychology (e.g., clinical, developmental, health, and personality) for more holistic understanding of the human capacity to overcome adversity. The book is divided into four sections: current challenges in examining PTG, methodological advancements, research in specific populations, and opportunitiesfor further research. Introductory chapters identify the limits of traditional PTG assessments and find solutions in prospective longitudinal studies. From here, this methodology is put into practicewith unique case examples from studies with Syrian refugees, older adults, and couples coping with a cancer diagnosis. The book concludes with calls for further research on event characteristics of adversity, as well as narrative identity, wisdom, and open-mindedness as key growth outcomes. Redesigning Research on Post-Traumatic Growth will serve as the starting point for the next generation of research on PTG Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
