Book Synopsis Broken Identity by : Ashley Williams
Download or read book Broken Identity written by Ashley Williams and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2011-09-20 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drake Pearson, a narrow-minded 18-year-old barely enduring Missouri’s heat, is tired of feeling empty. Living conditions are about as cozy as a cardboard box, on account of his alcoholic father who can find nothing better to do than argue relentlessly with him. When Drake thinks he can’t take another blow, he is reminded daily of his mom who vanished twelve years ago. And now there’s a dead body. After a terrible accident turns into a protected secret, a twisted string of events brings Drake miles away from home to an elderly man’s front door. Every promising opportunity also brings new doubts and temptations to run away—this time for good. When the secret he has kept locked away threatens to reveal itself, Drake knows he must shield it with his very life, even if the love he has been shown undeservingly is about to be destroyed.

Book Synopsis Analytical Psychology in a Changing World: The search for self, identity and community by : Lucy Huskinson
Download or read book Analytical Psychology in a Changing World: The search for self, identity and community written by Lucy Huskinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we make sense of ourselves within a world of change? In Analytical Psychology in a Changing World, an international range of contributors examine some of the common pitfalls, challenges and rewards that we encounter in our efforts to carve out identities of a personal or collective nature, and question the extent to which analytical psychology as a school of thought and therapeutic approach must also adapt to meet our changing needs. The contributors assess contemporary concerns about our sense of who we are and where we are going, some in light of recent social and natural disasters and changes to our social climates, others by revisiting existential concerns and philosophical responses to our human situation in order to assess their validity for today. How we use our urban environments and its structures to make sense of our pathologies and shortcomings; the relevance of images and the dynamic forms that underpin our experience of the world; how analytical psychology can effectively manage issues and problems of cultural, religious and existential identity – these broad themes, and others besides, are vividly illustrated by striking case-studies and unique personal insights that give real lucidity to the ideas and arguments presented. Analytical Psychology in a Changing World will be essential reading for Jungian and post-Jungian scholars and clinicians of depth psychology, as well as sociologists, philosophers and any reader with a critical interest in the important cultural ideas of our time.

Download or read book Who Do You Think You Are written by Emmanuel Upputuru and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-07-10 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of 33, Emmanuel Upputuru, India’s hottest creative person,* finds himself frustrated by physical injuries that have begun to cage his body. He embarks on a journey of self-discovery that unveils a shocking truth about his very existence: his identity was stolen from him before he ever set foot on this earth. The probe leads him to a scene of robbery and murder in a garden and to a place of skull in Jerusalem, where a war was waged on his behalf by a lamb with a mission to restore his original identity. But what was Emmanuel’s original identity? Are we just our bodies? How do we cope with physical pain? What are the three core fears of mankind? How can we be born again? These are some of the questions Emmanuel seeks to answer in his book, ‘Who Do You Think You Are’. Written over a period of eighteen years, using anecdotes from the advertising and cricket world, Emmanuel offers a radical take on the complex subject of Man’s Identity. ‘Who Do You Think You Are’ is an urgent book for a broken world. It can help us discover our true identity. Armed with this identity we can respond to conflicts better and conquer ourselves even as the world around us continues to trigger, troll, fight, divorce and threaten to nuke itself.

Download or read book Recreatable written by Kevin Scott and published by Kregel Publications. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ReCreatable begins with the story of a glass baking dish, the delectable aroma of tantalizing brownies, and an unseen defect that turns the promise of something delicious into a minor disaster, leaving glass fragments and brownies irretrievably intermingled. Both the dish and brownies are irrevocably lost. The implications for us are inescapable: created by God to reflect his glory and for his pleasure, we have been broken by sin to the point that we are completely useless to accomplish the purpose for which we were made. But, unlike the shattered brownie dish that gets discarded as worthless, God takes the shards of our lives and does the miraculous. He does not simply fit us back together. He takes those splinters of our destruction and uses them to re-create us: complete, restored, redeemed, and fitted to do and be all that he ever intended for us. ReCreatable leads us progressively through the impact of the creative genius of God in our lives. It points us to the reality of restored relationships, the resurrection of our role as true reflectors of God’s glory, and the revolutionary life that can be ours when we learn to be true disciples—re-created to live well for God.

Book Synopsis Sonnet Sequences and Social Distinction in Renaissance England by : Christopher Warley
Download or read book Sonnet Sequences and Social Distinction in Renaissance England written by Christopher Warley and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-07-28 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1970s there has been a broad and vital reinterpretation of the nature of literary texts, a move away from formalism to a sense of literature as an aspect of social, economic, political, and cultural history. While the earliest New Historicist work was criticized for a narrow and anecdotal view of history, it also served as an important stimulus for post-structuralist, feminist, Marxist, and psychoanalytical work, which in turn has increasingly informed and redirected it. Recent writing on the nature of representation, the historical construction of gender and of the concept of identity itself, on theatre as a political and economic phenomenon, and on the ideologies of art generally, reveals the breadth of the field. Cambridge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture is designed to offer historically oriented studies of Renaissance literature and theatre which make use of the insights afforded by theoretical perspectives. The view of history envisioned is above all a view of our history, a reading of the Renaissance for and from our own time. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In So Great a Salvation nine scholars from the global church reflect on soteriology in the Majority World. The doctrine of salvation is not a mere theological construct but, rather, a matter of eternal life and death that should not be treated lightly, as is often the case. Taking African, Asian, Latin American, and First Nations cultural contexts into account, this book allows readers to see God’s creative deliverance in a fresh light.
Book Synopsis History, Trauma and Shame by : Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela
Download or read book History, Trauma and Shame written by Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History, Trauma and Shame provides an in-depth examination of the sustained dialogue about the past between children of Holocaust survivors and descendants of families whose parents were either directly or indirectly involved in Nazi crimes. Taking an autobiographical narrative perspective, the chapters in the book explore the intersection of history, trauma and shame, and how change and transformation unfolds over time. The analyses of the encounters described in the book provides a close examination of the process of dialogue among members of The Study Group on Intergenerational Consequences of the Holocaust (PAKH), exploring how Holocaust trauma lives in the ‘everyday’ lives of descendants of survivors. It goes to the heart of the issues at the forefront of contemporary transnational debates about building relationships of trust and reconciliation in societies with a history of genocide and mass political violence. This book will be great interest for academics, researchers and postgraduate students engaged in the study of social psychology, Holocaust or genocide studies, cultural studies, reconciliation studies, historical trauma and peacebuilding. It will also appeal to clinical psychologists, psychiatrists and psychoanalysts, as well as upper-level undergraduate students interested in the above areas.

Book excerpt: "Francophone Women: Between Visibility and Invisibility underscores the writing of authors who foreground the female body and who write across geographical borders, as part of a global literary movement that has the French language as its common denominator. This edited collection exposes how female authors portray the tensions that exist between visibility and invisibility, public and private, presence and absence, and excess and restraint when it is linked to femininity and the female body." --Book Jacket.
Book Synopsis Working with Christian Servant Leadership Spiritual Intelligence by : Gary E. Roberts
Download or read book Working with Christian Servant Leadership Spiritual Intelligence written by Gary E. Roberts and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses how Christian leaders integrate faith into the workplace, through a love-based altruistic system of Christian Servant Leadership Spiritual Intelligence (CSLSI). It hypothesizes how CSLSI positively influences a range of desirable employee attitudes and behaviors including servant leadership and followership, organizational citizenship, and positive stress coping and adaptation strategies. This book embraces an interdisciplinary approach to present the global attributes of CSLSI, which includes following God’s will and Golden Rule workplace love expression, with specific workplace applications. The empirical research is supplemented by approximately 100 interviews with Christian leaders providing workplace exemplars and a compelling overview of how Christians honor God in the marketplace. This book will appeal to academics and practitioners in business, psychology, medicine, management, leadership, and theology looking to develop a God-honoring work life. Readers will benefit from the principles and the self-diagnostic surveys that assess spiritual intelligence and ways to enhance it.
Book Synopsis Search for Holographic Mind by : Chester Litvin PhD
Download or read book Search for Holographic Mind written by Chester Litvin PhD and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A psychologist explores the human psyche’s tendency toward fragmentation and a plan to restore a healthy self. In this debut book, Litvin argues that the human psyche tends, often as a response to trauma, to shatter into disjointed parts. This can be a normal and even salutary psychological mechanism, especially when employed to defensively sequester the mind from overwhelming pain. But the mind can overreact to distress, leading to a self so addled with internal fissures that unhappiness, anxiety, confusion, and a deficit of self-esteem can ensue. Fortunately, the author contends, the splintering of one’s self can be remedied by establishing a dialogue between the parts, hence producing a “congruence” that results in the harmony of a “Utopian collective”: “The solid identity is a unique structure of the psyche where the fragments are aligned together in common goals and attitude.” In order to illustrate his chief points, Litvin concocts a fictional case study that chronicles the life of soldier Stepan Kryvoruchko, who fled the authoritarian ideology of the Soviet Union and suffered from a “shattered identity” as a consequence. The author vividly personifies the scattered shards of Stepan’s mind, and the process whereby he heals destructive “splitting” through a reconstructive unification. Litvin compellingly assesses the political dimension of his theory, and the “virus of radicalization” that can infect both individuals as well as body politics. Author also includes helpful literary analogies, drawing a connection between critique of totalitarian collectivism and Dostoyevsky’s novelistic dissection of the issue. This volume also expands upon the author’s idea of sailing as a metaphor for introspective search, and provides a broader account of the nature of individual equilibrium; these concrete illustrations are of great instructional value.
Book Synopsis On Freud’s “Moses and Monotheism” by : Lawrence J. Brown
Download or read book On Freud’s “Moses and Monotheism” written by Lawrence J. Brown and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Freud’s "Moses and Monotheism" discusses key themes in Sigmund Freud’s final book, Moses and Monotheism, written between 1934 and 1939. The contributors reflect on the historical context of the time during which the book was written, including Freud’s mindset and his struggle to leave Austria to escape the Nazi regime, and investigate its contemporary implications and relevance. Drawing parallels with contemporary society, the chapters cover topics like historical truth, the effects of Nazism on Freud’s writing, Freud’s "relationship" with Moses, the transmission of trauma across generations, the origins and psychodynamics of anti-Semitism, Freud and Moses as leaders, and the notion of Tradition. This book also reflects on the stories of Moses and of Freud – the search of a people for a "Promised Land," the deep scars of slavery, and the struggle of a man to establish an ideology and ensure its continuity. On Freud’s "Moses and Monotheism" will be of great interest to all psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists. It will also be of interest to scholars investigating the nature of truth, and social scientists interested in the broader applications of Freud’s discussions of the nature of civilization.
Book Synopsis Migration In, From, and to Southeastern Europe by : Klaus Roth
Download or read book Migration In, From, and to Southeastern Europe written by Klaus Roth and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2011 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migrations have moulded Balkan societies. In the multiethnic empires migrations were very common, and in the modern era, economic reasons led millions of people to go abroad as overseas emigrants before World War I, as Gastarbeiter in the 1960s and 70s, or as economic migrants since 1990. In addition, many people had to leave their homes as political refugees or as victims of ethnic cleansing. But Balkan countries were and are also hosts to immigrants and refugees, and they have witnessed enormous rural-urban migrations. This volume, the first part of a selection of conference papers, focusses on historical and cultural aspects of migration in, from and to Southeastern Europe.
Book Synopsis The Marvel Studios Phenomenon by : Martin Flanagan
Download or read book The Marvel Studios Phenomenon written by Martin Flanagan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-12-28 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marvel Studios has provided some of the biggest worldwide cinematic hits of the last eight years, from Iron Man (2008) to the record-breaking The Avengers (2012), and beyond. Having announced plans to extend its production of connected texts in cinema, network and online television until at least 2028, the new aesthetic patterns brought about by Marvel's 'shared' media universe demand analysis and understanding. The Marvel Studios Phenomenon evaluates the studio's identity, as well as its status within the structures of parent Disney. In a new set of readings of key texts such as Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the thematics of superhero fiction and the role of fandom are considered. The authors identify milestones from Marvel's complex and controversial business history, allowing us to appraise its industrial status: from a comic publisher keen to exploit its intellectual property, to an independent producer, to successful subsidiary of a vast entertainment empire.
