Matters of Life and Death: Psychoanalytic Reflections
ISBN: 9781855758018 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The author's focus in this book is upon the intrapsychic vicissitudes of what it means to be truly alive and how death accompanies us at each step of our life's journey. He attempts to show that, psychologically-speaking, death is always present in life and life in death. He discovers what is emotionally central to being alive and how death and awareness of death--conscious or unconscious--silently color our subjective experience. The fundamental thrust of these socio-clinical meditations is to enhance appreciation of aspects of life that have been inoptimally addressed in psychoanalytic...

Mistrust: Developmental, Cultural, and Clinical Realms
ISBN: 9781782204886 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Humans are weak. Lacking the claws and thick skins of other animals, we are forced to rely on members of our own species to survive and flourish in the world. The fact that the human infant is born in an utterly helpless state also makes others' protective care necessary. Attachment, bonding, concern, and mutuality thus become cornerstones of human existence. Trust also enters this equation. Originating in the early mother-child relationship, trust continues to grow, get contextually refined tempered by reality testing, and gain nuances throughout the subsequent adult life. Its absence...

ISBN: 9780765705143 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume addresses the critical psychoanalytic issue of effective listening. While this issue has been discussed widely in the literature, most often the discussions are from the standpoint of technique. Listening to Others is among the first texts to consider the listening process from the so-called 'two-person' perspective--i.e., that which is aligned with intersubjective, interpersonal, and relational theories. The contributors to this volume all are well-known experts in contemporary psychoanalytic theory.

He...

The Colors of Childhood: Separation-Individuation Across Cultural, Racial, and Ethnic Diversity
ISBN: 9780765701558 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Psychotherapy is undergoing a cultural rejuvenation. The cultural relativism of its developmental and structural postulates has been acknowledged. We are seeing more clearly how ethnic, racial, socioeconomic, religious and linguistic differences between therapists and patients can affect their dialogue in profound ways. Such recognition is welcome accompaniment to an emerging theoretical pluralism, as well as a response to the shifting population patterns throughout the world, and, more specifically the changing demographic make-up of the United States, which is becoming a truly multiethnic...

Good Stuff: Courage, Resilience, Gratitude, Generosity, Forgiveness, and Sacrifice
ISBN: 9781442238169 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Good Stuff is divided into two main parts; Part I addresses Positive Attributes and Part II, Positive Actions. The former contains chapters on Courage, Resilience, and Gratitude. The latter contains chapters on Generosity, Forgiveness, and Sacrifice. Together, the six chapters constitute a harmonious gestalt of the relational scenarios that assure enrichment of human experience.

Guilt: Origins, Manifestations, and Management
ISBN: 9781442247819 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this elegantly written book, eight distinguished psychoanalysts address the ubiquitous phenomenon of guilt. They describe the childhood experiences that form the bedrock of this emotion and delineate various types of guilt, including pre-oedipal guilt, oedipal guilt, survivor guilt, separation guilt, induced guilt, and so on. Noting that guilt, by itself, is neither good nor bad, these master clinicians highlight the adverse (e.g. self-punishment, masochism, irritability) and potentially positive (e.g. reparation, helpfulness towards others) outcomes of guilt. They critically assess...

This book provides easy-to-read, concise, and clinically useful explanations of over 1000 terms and concepts from the field of psychoanalysis. The history of each term is included as is the name of its originator.

Where possible, the glossary includes diverse perspectives on a given idea and highlights how different analysts have used the same term for different purposes and with different theoretical aims...
