Matters of Life and Death: Psychoanalytic Reflections
ISBN: 9781855758018 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 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.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This volume addresses the critical psychoanalytic issue of effective listening.

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.

Guilt: Origins, Manifestations, and Management

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) 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...

Yet another avoids all athletic activity due to the fear of physical injury. And a fourth one lives in utter denial of passing time to avoid facing his fear of death....

ISBN: 9780765706997 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Death is a much avoided topic.
