Название: Trusting in the University: The Contribution of Temporality and Trust to a Praxis of Higher Learning (PATH in Psychology)
Автор: Paul T. Gibbs
Издательство: Kluwer
Год: 2004
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 229

Язык: English
The world changes and we are encouraged to change with it, but is all change good? This book asks us to stop and consider whether the higher education we are providing, and engaging in, for ourselves and our societies is what we ought to have, or what commercial interests want us to have. In claiming that there is a place for a higher education of learning, such as the university, amongst our array of tertiary options the book attempts to explore what this might be. Drawing from the existential literature and in particular Heidegger, the book investigates the case for such a form of higher education and settles on existential trust as the ground upon which the community of scholars that ought to be the university can flourish. This book is written for those who are concerned about the trends towards performativity and for those who are not yet so concerned! It offers a controversial and, some might say, idealistic view of what might be but makes no apology for that since the book proposes that higher education is becoming evermore unacceptable for those who value democracy, tolerance and learning. | |

Название: Transpersonal in Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling
Автор: Andrew Shorrock
Издательство: Palgrave
Год: 2008
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 256
Размер: 1014 kB
Язык: English
The Transpersonal in Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling is written in an accessible style that appeals to the lay reader as well as experienced clinicians. It offers an in-depth exploration of transpersonal thinking in relationship to the helping professions, in particular psychotherapy and the 'depth psychologies'. It presents a broad yet detailed overview of transpersonal theory and its place in clinical practice. The work of the founders of the school and newer transpersonal theories are examined as well as the influence that the transpersonal perspective has had upon the major schools of psychology. Furthermore, the effect that other bodies within the humanities, such as philosophy and esoteric thought, bring to bear on the transpersonal school are also considered, as are the insights from bodies of knowledge in the hard sciences such as neurobiology and quantum physics. | |

Название: In the Wake of 9/11: The Psychology of Terror
Автор: Thomas A. Pyszczynski, Sheldon Solomon, Jeff Greenberg
Издательство: American Psychological Association (APA)
Год: 2002
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 229
Размер: 15 MB
Язык: English
This unique book explores the emotions of despair, fear, and anger that arose after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon in the Autumn of 2001. The authors analyze reactions to the attacks through the lens of terror management theory, a psychological model that explains why humans react the way they do to the threat of death. The theory provides ways to understand and reduce terrorism’s effect and possibly find resolutions to conflicts involving terrorism. The authors focus primarily on the reaction in the United States to the 9/11 attack, but their model is applicable to all instances of terrorism, and they expand their discussion to include the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This fascinating book has practical implications and will be an irreplaceable resource for mental health practitioners, researchers, and anyone concerned with the causes and effects of terrorism.

Название: Emotions And Culpability: How the Law Is at Odds With Psychology, Jurors, And Itself (Law and Public Policy: Psychology and the Social Sciences)
Автор: Norman J. Finkel
Издательство: American Psychological Association
Год: 2006
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 312
Размер: 18 MB
Язык: English
This book investigates why, when, and how ordinary human beings hold some individuals guilty of crimes, but others less so or not at all. Why, for example, do the emotions of the accused sometimes aggravate a murder, making it a heinous crime, whereas other emotions might mitigate that murder to manslaughter, excuse a killing (by reason of insanity), or even justify it (by reason of self-defense)? And what emotions on the part of jurors come into play as they arrive at their decisions? The authors argue persuasively that U.S. law is out of touch with the way that jurors' commonsense justice works and the way they judge culpability. This disconnect has resulted in some inconsistent verdicts across different types of cases and thus has serious implications for whether the law will be respected and obeyed. Problems arise because criminal law has no unified theory of emotion and culpability, and legal scholars often seem to misunderstand or ignore what psychologists know about emotion. The authors skillfully show that the law's culpability theories are (and must be) psychological at heart, and they propose ways in which psychology can help inform and support the law | |

Название: Bullying: Implications for the Classroom (Educational Psychology)
Автор: Cheryl E. Sanders (Editor), Gary D. Phye (Editor)
Издательство: Elsevier
Год: 2004
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 261
Размер: 2 MB
Язык: English
In recent years there have been an increasing number of incidents where children have either perpetrated or been the victims of violence in the schools. Often times the children who perpetrated the violence had been the victims of school bullying. If bullying once was a matter of extorting lunch money from one's peers, it has since escalated into slander, sexual harassment, and violence. And the victims, unable to find relief, become depressed and/or violent in return.Despite all the media attention on recent school tragedies, many of which can be traced to bullied children, there has been little in the way of research-based books toward understanding why and how bullying occurs, the effects on all the individuals involved and the most effective intervention techniques. | |
