I talked a bit ago about a lecture I attended on the subject of resilience. Well, Smithsonian has an interview with the author of a new book. From the page I linked:
Psychiatrist Stuart Hauser answers questions about his new book, Out of the Woods, which chronicles four emotionally disturbed teenagers
I can tell you that I will be getting the book and that just the interview has given me plenty to think about. And it makes an interesting companion piece for this, from the NY Times:

Troubled Children:
Parenting as Therapy for Child’s Mental Disorders
And this, also from the times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/19/health/psychology/19essa.html?_r=1&ref=science&oref=slogin
It's an essay, entitled Sometimes, the Why Really Isn’t Crucial, about the issues and difficulties of causation in therapeutic work.
