Book Synopsis The Psychoanalytic Adventures of Inspector Canal by : Bruce Fink
Download or read book The Psychoanalytic Adventures of Inspector Canal written by Bruce Fink and published by Karnac Books. This book was released on 2010 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychoanalysts can be irritating! They're trained to probe into the wide range of motives that lead people to do what they do, and what they find usually isn't all sweetness and light. Still, they can be helpful to have around when you're investigating a crime, and sometimes they even prove endearing, despite being insufferable know-it-alls and nosy Parkers. Inspector Canal, based loosely on Jacques Lacan, often said to be the most important psychoanalyst since Freud himself and the quintessential French intellectual, is the kind of shrink you'll love to hate, but just maybe hate to love, too. So move over Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Dupin, Lupin, William of Baskerville, and Jessica Fletcher. There's a new sleuth in town who doesn't just solve crimes—he changes lives!

Book Synopsis Against Understanding, Volume 2 by : Bruce Fink
Download or read book Against Understanding, Volume 2 written by Bruce Fink and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-30 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against Understanding, Volume 2, casts a spotlight on the status of case studies in psychoanalysis, which are commonly used to illustrate clinicians’ expertise and mastery rather than patients’ actual itineraries. When a case is presented, the complex, unwieldy, and often self-contradictory material of a therapeutic trajectory is often vastly oversimplified in view of producing a linear narrative that seems perfectly to fit the parameters of a practitioner’s preferred theoretical framework. Bruce Fink attempts to eschew the appearance of "mastery" in assembling clinical material and in discussing his approach to practice and theory in the myriad case histories and vignettes included in both Volumes 1 & 2 of Against Understanding. To counterbalance the kind of paring down of material usually carried out to make cases conform to a particular paradigm, the case write-ups presented here include much of the "raw data" so often omitted: verbatim quotes from patients about their lives, backgrounds, dreams, and fantasies; and details about the many obscure, vacillating, and unruly phases of treatment. Fink hopes thereby to allow readers to form their own opinions about the well-foundedness or unsoundness of his formulations, interpretations, and interventions. This second part of a two-volume collection of papers, interviews, and case studies provides the reader with hundreds of illustrations of Lacanian theory in practice, and will be essential for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and counselors.

Book excerpt: Enter into the world of Police Inspector Canal, whose fascination with wonderful wines and fabulous food draw him to the Loire River Valley, entangling him in intrigues involving wine, math, music, art, and even sports. Police Inspector Canal has a love for all things French - and particularly French women - which leads him to the Loire Valley. Here, outlandish crimes occur at an ever more frenzied pace in the world-famous castles along the royal river, from Chambord and Chenonceau, Amboise and Azay, to Saumur and Oiron. In order to crack them, Canal, with a psychological flare that has nothing Renaissance about it, has to solve architectural secrets as well as the many mysteries of wine tasting! Novelist and psychoanalyst, Bruce Fink is the author of numerous detective novels that span two continents, jumping from New York to Paris and on to all the great vineyards of France.

Book Synopsis A Clinical Introduction to Freud: Techniques for Everyday Practice by : Bruce Fink
Download or read book A Clinical Introduction to Freud: Techniques for Everyday Practice written by Bruce Fink and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freud’s central theories explained in the context of modern therapy. Often overlooked because he is so easy to mock, ridicule, or just plain misunderstand, Freud introduced many techniques for clinical practice that are still widely employed today. Yet surprisingly, there has never been a clinical introduction to Freud's work that might be of use to students and professionals in their everyday lives and careers. Until now. Bruce Fink, who is his generation's most respected translator of Lacan's work and a profound interpreter of Freud's, has written the definitive clinical introduction to Freud. This book presents Freud in an eminently usable way, providing readers with a plethora of examples from everyday life and clinical practice illustrating the insightfulness and continued applicability of Freud's ideas. The overriding focus is on techniques Freud developed for going directly toward the unconscious, illustrating how we can employ them today and perhaps even improve on them. Fink also lays out many of Freud's fundamental concepts—such as repression, isolation, displacement, anxiety, affect, free association, repetition, obsession, and wish-fulfillment—and situates them in highly applicable clinical contexts. The emphasis throughout is on the myriad techniques developed by Freud that clinicians of all backgrounds and orientations can draw upon to put in their therapy toolbox, whether or not they identify as "Freudians." With references ranging from Star Trek and the Moody Blues to hard drives and unicorns, Bruce Fink's elegant writing brings Freud into sharp focus for clinicians of all backgrounds. To readers who ask with an open mind "Does this approach allow me to see anything that I had not seen before in my clinical work?" this book will offer many new insights.
Download or read book Death by Analysis written by Bruce Fink and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning young analyst-in-training keels over dead in front of three hundred guests at her Institute's annual conference. It looks like murder. But initial inquiries suggest she was liked by one and all: her teachers, supervisors, fellow-students, and even patients. New York's finest are forced to call upon Inspector Canal, an allegedly former French secret serviceman now living in Manhattan (loosely based on the inimitable Parisian psychoanalyst, Jacques Lacan), to penetrate the calm demeanor of the dead woman's professional entourage. More daring than ever, changing identities and donning the most unlikely of disguises before, during, and even after a mad Halloween party, Canal feels his way through a minefield of denials and dissimulations, trying not to trigger any further detonations. As in his previous escapades, the Frenchman gets caught up in the misadventures of Eros while attempting to solve age-old and newer forms of crimes of the heart, grappling with the biggest mysteries of them all: love and death.
Book Synopsis The Riddle of the Third Mile by : Colin Dexter
Download or read book The Riddle of the Third Mile written by Colin Dexter and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-02-10 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Riddle of the Third Mile is the sixth novel in Colin Dexter's Oxford-set detective series. As portrayed by John Thaw in ITV's Inspector Morse. The thought suddenly occurred to Morse that this would be a marvellous time to murder a few of the doddery old bachelor dons. No wives to worry about their whereabouts; no landladies to whine about the unpaid rents. In fact, nobody would miss most of them at all. . . Dr Browne-Smith passed through the porter's lodge at approximately 8.15 a.m. on the morning of Friday, 11th July. And nobody has heard from him since. By the 16th of July the Master of Lonsdale is concerned, but not yet worried. Plenty of time to disappear, think Chief Inspector Morse. And plenty of time, too, for someone to commit murder . . . As bodies begin to pile, Morse sets out on a journey through intricate and complicated history, from World War Two Egypt to present-day London, in search of answers. The Riddle of the Third Mile is followed by the seventh Inspector Morse book, The Secret of Annexe 3.

Book Synopsis The Infantry Adventures of Sgt William G. Altenhofen by : Sgt William G. Altenhofen
Download or read book The Infantry Adventures of Sgt William G. Altenhofen written by Sgt William G. Altenhofen and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I was assigned an infantry MOS, in spite of having a profile, I first thought about what the Psychiatryst had told me. He said I lost my temper very fast and it was uncontrolable. My first reaction was to get very angry, my mind seemed to blow up, I wanted to scream at him that he was wrong. Than I realized that was just what he had just told me. So I always worried that I would get into a situation where I would need all my facilities about me, and I would loose it and cause one or more people to get injured because I was not thinking properly. I found it easy to operate in the infantry. The operating manuals were written so they were easy to understand. I passed all the schools I had to attend, and I was considered very efficient. However, I was not the loud, screaming bully that was typical of the Infantry Sergeant. I was often critized because I did not scream at the troops. I found that if you talked to them using good english I got more done. So I did not use curse words, or degrade people in any manner. I learned when I went to my first Infantry unit, that if I told them I had a profile, and that I could type, I would be put in a dead end job that earned no rewards, so I would just be marking time. I could not operate that way. As soon as I could I got rid of the profile. I got a few breaks, and considered myself very lucky to accomplish as much as I did in the Army. I wrote mostly about myself, but I did include bits about people who I considered outstanding, good or bad. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed living it. SFC (Ret) William G. Altenhofen

Book Synopsis The Intellectual Adventure of Ancient Man by : Henri Frankfort
Download or read book The Intellectual Adventure of Ancient Man written by Henri Frankfort and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The people in ancient times the phenomenal world was teeming with life; the thunderclap, the sudden shadow, the unknown and eerie clearing in the wood, all were living things. This unabridged edition traces the fascinating history of thought from the pre-scientific, personal concept of a "humanized" world to the achievement of detached intellectual reasoning. The authors describe and analyze the spiritual life of three ancient civilizations: the Egyptians, whose thinking was profoundly influenced by the daily rebirth of the sun and the annual rebirth of the Nile; the Mesopotamians, who believed the stars, moon, and stones were all citizens of a cosmic state; and the Hebrews, who transcended prevailing mythopoeic thought with their cosmogony of the will of God. In the concluding chapter the Frankforts show that the Greeks, with their intellectual courage, were the first culture to discover a realm of speculative thought in which myth was overcome.
