(P/B) THE CORAL SEA
Εκδότης: W.W. NORTON & COMPANY Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3115-0281
Several hours before Robert died I asked him how I might best serve him in his absence. We both knew he was dying, and despite all mortal agony the conversation flowed as it might at any time in our lives. We spoke of work, the source of our common devotion, which only strengthened with his departure. Robert asked me to write a preface for Flowers, his forthcoming book. Take care of my flowers, he said. I will do it, I told him. He asked me if I would write our story. He knew it was etched in my memory, for he had often asked me to tell it...

THE STANDARD EDITION
Εκδότης: W.W. NORTON & COMPANY Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3115-0068
In 1923, in this volume, Freud worked out important implications of the structural theory of mind that he had first set forth three years earlier in Beyond the Pleasure Principle.

(P/B) THE ODYSSEY
Εκδότης: W.W. NORTON & COMPANY Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3115-0371
Composed at the rosy-fingered dawn of world literature almost three millennia ago, The Odyssey is a poem about violence and the aftermath of war; about wealth, poverty and power; about marriage and family; about travelers, hospitality, and the yearning for home.

HOW OUR MINDS, SOCIETY, AND NEUROSEXISM CREATE DIFFERENCE
Εκδότης: W.W. NORTON & COMPANY Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3115-0409
It's the twenty-first century, and although we tried to rear unisex children-boys who play with dolls and girls who like trucks-we failed. Even though the glass ceiling is cracked, most women stay comfortably beneath it. And everywhere we hear about vitally important "hardwired" differences between male and female brains. The neuroscience that we read about in magazines, newspaper articles, books, and sometimes even scientific journals increasingly tells a tale of two brains, and the result is more often than not a validation of the status...

THE FIRST COMPLETE EDITION IN ENGLISH
Εκδότης: W.W. NORTON & COMPANY Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3115-0176
Brilliant and innovative, Jacques Lacan's work lies at the epicenter of modern thought about otherness, subjectivity, sexual difference, the drives, the law, and enjoyment.

This new translation of his most famous work offers welcome, readable access for the very first time to all of the papers in the original French edition, most of which have never before been available in English. It includes such well-known texts as "The Mirror Stag... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(H/B) NORSE MYTHOLOGY
Εκδότης: W.W. NORTON & COMPANY Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3115-0338
Neil Gaiman has long been inspired by ancient mythology in creating the fantastical realms of his fiction. Now he turns his attention back to the source, presenting a bravura rendition of the great northern tales. In Norse Mythology, Gaiman fashions primeval stories into a novelistic arc that begins with the genesis of the legendary nine worlds; delves into the exploits of the deities, dwarves, and giants; and culminates in Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods and the rebirth of a new time and people. Gaiman stays true to the myths while viv... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(H/B) THE RED BOOK
A READER'S EDITION
Εκδότης: W.W. NORTON & COMPANY Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3115-0278
A portable edition of the famous Red Book text and essay. The Red Book, published to wide acclaim in 2009, contains the nucleus of C. G. Jung's later works. It was here that he developed his principal theories of the archetypes, the collective unconscious, and the process of individuation that would transform psychotherapy from treatment of the sick into a means for the higher development of the personality. As Sara Corbett wrote in the New York Times, "The creation of one of modern history's true visionaries, The Red Book is a singular wo... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |
