WHAT
149844
Author: John Ross
File Type: pdf
The author, a researcher and writer on the subject of masculinity, explores the male condition from infancy to manhood, exposing its complexity and fragility in the face of conflicting familial, social and sexual impulses. The authors psychoanalytic focus is derived from his clinical experience, but his interdisciplinary background leads him to draw on mythology, anthropology, sociology, history and literature in formulating and illustrating his ideas about male identity and development. Ross pursues such themes as a boys early identification with his mother the evolution of his fatherly ambitions the aggression and rivalry in father-son relationships and the developmental role of romantic, erotic passion these factors document the ongoing changes in views of male psychology. This work is both a general history of the psychoanalytical study of male development, and an account of what that study conveys. Throughout, Ross emphasizes the feminine aspects of a mans nature and the destructive potential inherent in asserting his virility, internal tensions that may result in a complicated and shaky sense of manhood. **

THE P
135637
Author: Rasmus Thybo Jensen
File Type: pdf
The 17 original essays of this volume explore the relevance of the phenomenological approach to contemporary debates concerning the role of embodiment in our cognitive, emotional and practical life. The papers demonstrate the theoretical vitality and critical potential of the phenomenological tradition both through critically engagement with other disciplines (medical anthropology, psychoanalysis, psychiatry, the cognitive sciences) and through the articulation of novel interpretations of classical works in the tradition, in particular the works of Edmund Husserl, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Jean-Paul Sartre. The concrete phenomena analyzed in this book include chronic pain, anorexia, melancholia and depression.

VALUE
147489
Author: Alexander Manu
File Type: pdf
We live in a behavior economy, an environment in which people no longer engage with companies just by purchasing things, but they seek engagement with services that allow them to behave, to leave a mark, and to participate in the community of others. The economic model promoted by the behavior economy is a model where behavior is the only goal of our actions, and where intrinsic motivation is the key to participation, engagement, and the satisfaction of multiple dimensions of value. Value Creation and the Internet of Things describes value delivery and consumption, and the mechanisms by which new value is captured and created, in enterprises dedicated to competing and prospering in this new environment. This book is significant in the context of the Internet of Things becoming mainstream, forcing organizations to re-examine their value creation methodologies in light of new consumer behavior and expectations. The Internet of Things will reframe the existence of the ones enriched by it. It will do so not because it can, but because our motivation will demand it. This is a book about reframing reality for new and incumbent organizations. The reality to reframe is not an imaginary one, but the immediate reality in which one operates the behavior economy.

ZEN-B
152772
Author: James H. Austin
File Type: pdf
In Zen-Brain Horizons, James Austin draws on his decades of experience as a neurologist and Zen practitioner to clarify the benefits of meditative training. Austin integrates classical Buddhist literature with modern brain research, exploring the horizons of a living, neural Zen. When viewed in the light of today, the timeless wisdom of some Zen masters seems almost to have anticipated recent research in the neurosciences. The keen attentiveness and awareness that we cultivate during meditative practices becomes the leading edge of our subsequent mental processing. Austin explains how our covert, involuntary functions can make crucial contributions to the subtle ways we learn, intuit, and engage in creative activities. He demonstrates why living Zen means much more than sitting quietly indoors on a cushion, and provides simplified advice that helps guide readers to the most important points. **

ENDS
67255
Author: Gregory Elliott
File Type: pdf
Following the disappearance of the Soviet Union, scholars across the political spectrum tackled the world-historical significance of the end of communism. This book addresses the balance-sheets of modern political history offered by three writers -- Francis Fukuyama, Eric Hobsbawm and Perry Anderson -- comparing them with the future projected by Marx in The Communist Manifesto. Gregory Elliott argues that Marx is central to all three accounts and that, along with the Manifesto, they form a quartet of analyses of the results and prospects of capitalism and socialism, which are of enduring significance for the Left. This book provides a readable survey of key historical and political thinkers that will appeal to anyone interested in modern political thought. **About the Author Gregory Elliott is a Visiting Fellow at Newcastle University. His books include Ends in Sight (Pluto, 2008), Perry Anderson The Merciless Laboratory of History (1998) and Althusser The Detour of Theory (2nd edition, 2006).
