Předkládaná monografie přináší základní poznatky o truchlení dětí a dospívajících. Prožitek ztráty je univerzální lidská zkušenost, v současné společnosti je přesto tématem spíše vytěsňovaným. Děti a dospívající zažívají celou řadu ztrát, jako je ztráta blízkého člověka, rodiče či sourozence. Přirozenou reakcí na jakoukoliv ztrátu je smutek a truchlení, které mají řadu dopadů na duševní i somatické zdraví dětí, na jejich emoční prožívání i vztahy s druhými.

Kniha popisuje projevy truchlení u dětí a dospívajících, determinanty truchlení a rizikové faktory a komentuje často rozšířené mýty o jejich truchlení. Zvláštní pozornost je věnována možnostem podpory adaptivního truchlení dětí a dospívajících, a to jak ze strany rodičů, tak ze strany odborníků v pomáhajících profesích. V publikaci jsou prezentovány výsledky originálního výzkumu, zaměřeného na vlastní zkušenost rodičů s truchlením jejich dětí po smrti sourozence.

Publikace je určena jak pro rodiče a blízké dětí, které prožily závažnou ztrátu, tak pro odborníky v pomáhajících profesích, psychology, pedagogy, poradce pro pozůstalé, a pro odborníky dalších profesí, kteří se věnují zdravotní a sociální péči o děti a dospívající.

The present monograph titled Evolutionary Ethics: Selected Issues and Challenges discusses a range of problems, theoretical concepts, and beliefs from the perspective of evolutionary ethics. The term evolution has become one of the central terms in contemporary science and philosophy.

In social sciences in general, and in socio-biology and evolutionary psychology in particular, evolution has had great impact on our understanding of the genesis of culture. Evolutionary theories play a similar role within the theory of consciousness and of the mind (evolutionary epistemology). The interrelation between our evolutionary past and our sense of good and evil is also a subject of heightened interest in ethics; it has in fact become one of its challenges. The concept of evolution challenges the way we create thought patterns through which we understand, or hope to understand, ourselves and the world around us.

This monograph represents a general summary of selected issues in evolutionary ethics, touching upon various aspects of current research into evolutionary ethics and the related domains of evolution, science, ethics, and morals. Evolutionary ethics has become a project which presupposes that in order to understand the essence and basis of morals one must turn to the process of evolution of thought, and to the theories put forth by evolutionists, specifically evolutionary biologists.

The structure of this monograph, as well as its potential usefulness for research and education clearly show that the analysis of the problems discussed here has significant implications for domains far removed from the purely theoretical parts of moral philosophy or biology. The advantage of such discourse is that it enables the implementation of evolutionary ethics in social and ethical issues of public interest (for example Sex Literacy, Sex Education), and this should be recognised and welcome.
