Violence : Reflections on Our Deadliest Epidemic
ISBN: 9781853028427 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. 'James Gilligan has written a stunning book about violence. As a psychiatrist who has spent twenty-five years of his professional life treating men who committed murder, Gilligan draws poignantly on his work with prisoners to help us understand what motivates desperate men. In the end, he offers a compelling psychoanalytic explanation of violence while calling on society to take social, economic and cultural measures to help prevent the 'deadly epidemic' from spreading.' - Judith Friedlander, PhD., Dean of the Graduate Faculty of Political and Social Science, New School for Social Research...

Why Some Politicians Are More Dangerous Than Others
ISBN: 9780745649825 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Politicians and the political process, even in ostensibly democratic countries, can be deadly. James Gilligan has discovered a devastating truth that has been "hiding in plain sight" for the past century - namely, that when America's conservative party, the Republicans, have gained the presidency, the country has repeatedly suffered from epidemics of violent death. Rates of both suicide and homicide have sky-rocketed. The reasons are all too obvious: rates of every form of social and economic distress, inequality and loss - unemployment, recessions, poverty, bankruptcy, homelessness also...

Violence: Reflections on a National Epidemic
ISBN: 9780679779124 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Drawing on firsthand experience as a prison psychiatrist, his own family history, and literature, Gilligan unveils the motives of men who commit horrifying crimes, men who will not only kill others but destroy themselves rather than suffer a loss of self-respect. With devastating clarity, Gilligan traces the role that shame plays in the etiology of murder and explains why our present penal system only exacerbates it. Brilliantly argued, harrowing in its portraits of the walking dead, Violence should be read by anyone concerned with this national epidemic and its widespread...

Preventing Violence
ISBN: 9780500282786 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Violence is most often addressed in moral and legal terms: "How evil is this action, and how much punishment does it deserve?" Unfortunately, this way of thinking, the basis for our legal and political institutions, does nothing to shed light on the causes of violence. Violent criminals have been Gilligan's teachers, and he has been their student. Prisons are microcosms of the societies in which they exist, and by examining them in detail, we can learn about society as a whole. Gilligan suggests treating violence as a public health problem. He advocates initiating radical social and economic...
