(P/B) EARLY FREUD AND LATE FREUD
Ilse Grubrich-Simitis, well-known as a Freud scholar and editor of Freud's works, has long advocated a return to his original texts in order to comprehend fully the power and innovative force of his theories. In Early Freud and Late Freud she examines the earliest psychoanalytic book, Studies on Hysteria, which Freud wrote together with Breuer, and Moses and Monotheism, Freud's last book. The essay on Studies on Hysteria reveals to the reader why that book is indeed the 'primal book' of psychoanalysis. Not only does it offer a moving and d...

(P/B) COGNITIVE AND CONSTRUCTIVE PSYCHOTHERAPIES
Psychotherapy is changing. In today's world, such a statement seems to require little explanation. We live in an age of change. Indeed, most of us are so busy coping with the challenges of modern life that we seldom pause to reflect upon the pace and pervasiveness of change in our lives. Consider one striking illustration: the average person of the last century was born, lived a lifespan of perhaps 60 years, and died-all within a radius of about 8 miles. In today's world, 8 miles seems like a short distance to most commuters. Moreover, the...

(P/B) STIGMATIZATION, TOLERANCE AND REPAIR
Society is faced with a variety of undesirable behaviours and conditions such as crime, mental and physical illnesses and disabilities, that usually provoke different responses in people such as emotions of anger, fear or pity. In our evolutionary past, these emotions adaptively motivated the repair of interpersonal relationships, whereas more recently they may also result in other types of social control such as stigmatization or tolerance. Dijker and Koomen show, on the basis of elementary psychological processes, how peoples' responses ...

(P/B) PSYCHOLOGY AND EXPERIENCE
If personal experience is the basic raw material for psychology, why do all the major psychologies of the past century marginalise or deny it? In this thought-provoking new book Benjamin Bradley shows how our everyday experiences need to be at the core of the scientific discipline. He calls for a move away from attempts to reconcile the many contrasting and often opposing theories and philosophies of contemporary psychology, and instead puts forward a scholarly and exciting new vision for psychology which focuses on the 'here-and-now' and ...

(P/B) ETHNICITY AND CAUSAL MECHANISMS
Research clearly indicates that ethnic groups differ significantly on levels of mental and physical health, antisocial behavior, and educational attainment. This book explains these variations among ethnic groups with respect to their psychological and social functioning and tests competing hypotheses about the mechanisms that might cause the functioning to be better, worse, or different in pattern from other groups. Attention is paid to educational attainments, antisocial behavior, schizophrenia and suicide, and to the complex and changin...

(P/B) COGNITIVE LIMITATIONS IN AGING AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGY
This book examines the major progress made in recent psychological science in understanding the cognitive control of thought, emotion, and behavior and what happens when that control is diminished as a result of aging, depression, developmental disabilities, or psychopathology. Each chapter of this volume reports the most recent research by a leading researcher on the international stage. Topics include the effects on thought, emotion, and behavior by limitations in working memory, cognitive control, attention, inhibition, and reasoning pr...

(P/B) WHERE ID WAS
There have been many "returns to Freud", many attempts to recover the first psychoanalyst's radical challenge to the dominant culture of the day. Now, in the 21st century, when the values of "normalization" pervade not only society but increasingly the consulting room itself, this work attempts to break through the atrophies of Freudian theory to recapture its early spirit and to focus attention on the inherently political dimensions of psychoanalytic culture. This collection brings together psychoanalytic thinkers to present an analysis o...

(P/B) PICKING UP THE PIECES
For twenty-five years forensic psychologist Paul Britton has interviewed, assessed and treated people with damaged or broken minds. Some were responsible for terrible crimes, others were stopped before it was too late. He can 'walk through the minds' of those who murder, rape, torture, extort and kidnap. For him, the answers aren't just hidden at bloody crime scenes or in the post-mortem photographs - instead, they are often locked away within someone's sub-conscious or deep in their past. That is why the police have called on him to help ...

(CLOTH) TREATMENT OF DEPRESSION AND RELATED MOODS
Since the first edition of this book was published, many dramatic changes have taken place in the treatment of depression and the related mood disorders. Daniel W.

This book presents these insights in an accessible and sufficiently comprehensive way that gives nonpsychiatric psychotherapists who treat patients with mood...
