Between Hubris & Fear
Between Hubris & Fear: The Crisis of the Modern Self A stirring nonfiction book about the loss of our values in a torn world Why does our society seem more disoriented than ever, despite progress, freedom, and prosperity? "Between Hubris & Fear: The Crisis of the Modern Self" relentlessly exposes how the modern self is torn apart between self-aggrandizement and deep insecurity - and in the process, central humanistic values such as decency, loyalty, responsibility, and morality are lost. This book is a passionate plea for a return to what defines our humanity. It analyzes, with a clear perspective and philosophical depth, how egocentrism, moral arbitrariness, and collective fears are destabilizing our society. Instead of true freedom, we are experiencing an identity crisis - and with it the gradual disappearance of empathy, solidarity, and spirituality. This book invites you to pause. To reflect. And perhaps even to take new paths. It combines philosophical depth with understandable language - and is aimed at all those who want to understand, not just observe. What you can expect from this book: - Decline in values & ethics in the modern age - Hubris and self-promotion in social media - Culture of fear and loss of identity - The role of humanism in the 21st century - Paths to a new moral orientation For all those who sense that something crucial is being lost in our society - and who are looking for answers, guidance, and true depth. This book is a wake-up call - and offers hope. For you. For us. For a better society.
Making Meaning
It is delightful to see another book by Lynne Souter-Anderson, contributing to the field of Clay Therapy. Her first book, Touching Clay, Touching What?: The Use of Clay in Therapy (2010), gave credence and credibility to using clay in therapy. It was a pioneering book in the field of the creative arts therapies and gave a broad perspective on working in this modality with all age groups.This new book is written for already qualified professionals who want to add the use of Clay Therapy in their work with children and adolescents. It is a hands-on book for practitioners and easy to read. However, the application of clay therapy in this specialist field requires appropriate additional training. Lynne's book is a significant addition to the small but growing library of books on the market about specialist therapeutic approaches with young children and adolescents. Play Therapy UK (PTUK)'s research analysis of over 300,000 therapeutic sessions using the 'toolkit '(sand, music, clay, art/drawing, puppets, movement, drama, therapeutic story, creative visualisation etc.) has shown that clay is the fifth most used medium in play therapy sessions. It is therefore an important medium to offer to children and adolescents to support their healing process. Lynne achieves a good balance between the application of theory and the actual process, which is always valuable for the reader. This is especially well demonstrated in Chapter 1, 'Clay Therapy: Theoretical Underpinning of Clay Therapy', in which the author explains her own theoretical basis, 'The Theory of Contact: Physical, Emotional, Spiritual and Metaphorical'. She uses the analogy of the 'five lenses' to demonstrate the stages of immersion and discovery in the clay therapy process, and includes an invaluable diagram to clarify her theory about the evolving nature of the process.For me the book comes really alive through the ten case studies, which demonstrate how clay therapy has been used with the younger clients and adolescents, a client group that can proveto be difficult to reach and work with in therapy. The illustrations used deepen the experience and understanding of the process for the reader. Throughout the case studies glimpses of thequality of the therapist's presence are seen, because she has the courage to show her own process thereby offering authenticity to the work. To be able to do this effectively specialised training is required.There is still very little published in the field, but it is heartening and exciting to see recent research initiatives described in the master's dissertations produced by students at the Academy ofPlay and Child Psychotherapy and Cambridge University, which are included towards the end of the book. Lynne's book is a 'must-read' for all creative play and arts therapists.

Ever Not Quite
William James made many references to pluralism throughout his career. Interestingly, many contemporary psychologists also discuss pluralism and indeed call for pluralism as a corrective to the discipline's philosophical and methodological foundations. Yet, pluralism and the purposes to which it is applied are understood in a variety of ways, and the relation of contemporary pluralism to the pluralism(s) of William James is uncertain. This book offers conceptual clarification in both contexts, first distinguishing diverse senses of pluralism in psychology and then systematically examining different forms of pluralism across the writings of James. A comparison of meanings and analysis of implications follows, aimed at illuminating what is at stake in ongoing calls for pluralism in psychology.
The Imagination Pulse
This Element explores the transformative power of reading as a deeply imaginative, embodied process. It challenges conventional views of reading as mere decoding and argues that reading involves a dynamic interplay between perception, imagination, and the body. Drawing from ecological-embodied theories and cross-disciplinary insights, it introduces the concept of 'breaks' in reading - moments of pause, disruption, and reflection - as essential to fostering rich imaginative engagement. By focusing on multiscalar attention, pacemaking, and material engagement, the Element proposes a novel framework for understanding reading as an active, creative process that enhances cognitive and emotional depth. Through a cognitive ethnography of reading, the Element demonstrates how these imaginative breaks can cultivate more meaningful and sustained interactions with texts, offering insights for education and reading practices. Ultimately, the Element seeks to reimagine the role of reading in enhancing imaginative capacities and navigating today's complex social and global challenges.

Becoming Yourself
Know yourself better--and understand the people around you more fully--with a fresh, practical approach to the wisdom of the Enneagram from a top author in the field. "If you think something is missing in your life, it is probably more of the real you." The Enneagram is one of the most powerful self-awareness tools we can access for greater happiness, success, and fulfillment. But if we just identify our own "Ennea-Type" and its most overt characteristics--and we stop there--we're not tapping this powerful thought system's full potential.

Becoming Yourself is inviting and exciting, a rich and reader-friendly deep dive full of timeless wisdom and practical insight you can put to use in your life right now. In Becoming Yourself, you'll start by pinpointing your Enneagram Type, then you'll explore all 9 of the types in detail--since all their energies are present in all of us. Robert illuminates the essential characteristics of each Type: their core strengths and innate gifts; their ego drivers, fixations, and basic fears; the path of growth that connects them to the virtues of other Types; and more. On every page, you'll find insight and guidance to help you: Thrive in your personal relationships Excel at workImprove your mental healthWalk your spiritual pathLive your purpose"My aim with this book is to help you use the Enneagram to become yourself," Robert writes.

Hope for Cynics
Cynicism is making us sick, but Stanford Psychologist Dr. Jamil Zaki has the cure. "A ray of light for dark days" --Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author In 1972, half of Americans agreed that most people can be trusted; by 2018, only a third did. Different generations, genders, religions, and political parties all think human virtue is evaporating. Cynicism is an understandable response to a world full of injustice and inequality. But in many cases, it is misplaced. Dozens of studies find that people fail to realize how kind, generous, and open-minded others really are. Cynical thinking deepens social problems: when we expect the worst in people, we often bring it out of them. We don't have to remain stuck in this cynicism trap. Through science and storytelling, Jamil Zaki imparts the secret for beating back cynicism: hopeful skepticism--thinking critically about people and our problems, while honoring and encouraging our strengths. Far from being na簿ve, hopeful skepticism is a precise way of understanding others that can rebalance our view of human nature and help us build the world we truly want.

This is a careful and scientific study of psychology applied to nursing which is readable and avoids the use of unnecessary technical terms.

Letters to the Broken
Letters to the Broken is not just a book-it's a hand reaching through the dark. It's a raw, unfiltered love letter to anyone who has ever stood at the edge of giving up, unsure if tomorrow was worth the fight. These pages were born in the quiet hours, when pain feels loudest and hope is nothing more than a faint flicker. Each unsent letter is a confession, a prayer, and a reminder that even in the messiest moments of our lives, there is still something worth holding on to.This is for the ones who feel invisible, for the hearts that beat quietly in the background, for the souls who have mastered the art of smiling while breaking inside. These words don't promise to fix you-but they will stand beside you in the wreckage, whispering that you are not alone.Because broken isn't the end. It's the place where the light first seeps in, where strength takes root, and where the most beautiful parts of you begin to grow.
Developing Identity in Adolescence
Explores racial/ethnic identity development as a life-long process of negotiating self, context, and others' perceptions and behaviors from early adolescence to adulthood.Guided by early foundational and recent compelling theories on race/ethnicity and identity development across the lifespan, Celina Chatman Nelson, Stephen C. Peck, Oksana Malanchuk, and Jacquelynne S. Eccles provide a detailed analysis of their collected research on the Maryland Adolescent Development in Context Study (MADICS) to demonstrate the diversity of racial/ethnic identity profiles and how they change over time. MADICS began with nearly 1500 7th graders and their families in the early 1990s, following many of them into their early 30s at the turn of the millennium. Using mixed-method research involving case studies and interview data, this book demonstrates racial/ethnic identity as multidimensional, contextualized, and idiosyncratic, within a bidirectional, iterative, and nuanced process. Through the presentation of their research findings on Prince George's County youth, the authors encourage families, schools, and communities to have an open dialogue about race/ethnicity to promote active reflection not only among developing youth, but also within the world we live in today.
