Side Effects
ISBN: 9780007155385 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Psychoanalysis works by attending to the patient's side effects, "what falls out of his pockets once he starts speaking." Undergoing psychoanalytic therapy is always a leap into the dark--like dedicating our hearts and intellect to a powerful work of literature, it's impossible to know beforehand its ultimate effect and consequences. One must remain open to where the "side effects" will lead. Erudite, eloquent, and enthrallingly observant, Adam Phillips is one of the world's most respected psychoanalysts and a boldly original writer and thinker--and the ideal guide to exploring the...

Terrors and Experts
ISBN: 9780571175840 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. In the style of his earlier books, On Kissing, Tickling and Being Bored and On Flirtation, the author discusses ways in which we may be terrorized by experts, and the idea of expertise itself. He challenges the conventional idea of the self as something to be known, and sets out to show how self-knowledge is the problem rather than the solution. By examining our wish to believe things - and people (including psychoanalysts) - the book offers a revision of psychoanalysis itself. For to take psychoanalysis seriously, Phillips suggests, is to be unable to take gurus seriously.

On Flirtation
ISBN: 9780674634404 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. People tend to flirt only with serious things--madness, disaster, other people's affections. So is flirtation dangerous, exploiting the ambiguity of promises to sabotage our cherished notions of commitment? Or is it, as Adam Phillips suggests, a productive pleasure, keeping things in play, letting us get to know them in different ways, allowing us the fascination of what is unconvincing? This is a book about the possibilities of flirtation, its risks and instructive amusements--about the spaces flirtation opens in the stories we tell ourselves, particularly within the framework of...

Darwin's Worms
ISBN: 9780465056767 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Adam Phillips has been called "the psychotherapist of the floating world" and "the closest thing we have to a philosopher of happiness." His style is epigrammatic; his intelligence, electric. His new book, Darwin's Worms, uses the biographical details of Darwin's and Freud's lives to examine endings-suffering, mortality, extinction, and death. Both Freud and Darwin were interested in how destruction conserves life. They took their inspiration from fossils or from half-remembered dreams. Each told a story that has altered our perception of our lives. For Darwin, Phillips explains, "the story...

ISBN: 9780300219838 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. From one of the world's foremost authorities on Sigmund Freud comes a strikingly original biography of the father of psychoanalysis
Becoming Freud is the story of the young Freud--Freud up until the age of fifty--that incorporates all of Freud's many misgivings about the art of biography. Freud invented a psychological treatment that involved the telling and revising of life stories, but he was himself skeptical of the writing of such stories. In this biography, Adam Phillips, whom the New Yorker calls "Britain's foremost psychoanalytical writer," emphasizes the...

Instead of embracing the benefits of altruism, as a species we seem to be becoming deeply and fundamentally antagonistic to each other, with motives that are generally self-seeking.

On Balance
ISBN: 9780312610746 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Every day, we are told that balance is a good thing. We are supposed to make balanced judgments, balance our budget, and preserve a balance of power in our government. Disturbed people are described as unbalanced. In this insightful, charming book, the philosopher and psychoanalyst Adam Phillips looks afresh at balance (and its shadow, excess) and asks if achieving the former is such an admirable goal. From this perspective, Phillips examines the explosive topics of money, sex, parenthood, faith, and education. In his exhilarating and casually brilliant explorations of case studies, fairy...
