Trauma, Culture, and PTSD
Trauma, Culture, and PTSD
Palgrave Macmillan US | Psychopathology | July 11, 2016 | ISBN-10: 1137575999 | 115 pages | pdf | 1.44 mb
Authors: Alford, C. Fred
This book examines the social contexts in which trauma is created by those who study it, whether considering the way in which trauma afflicts groups, cultures, and nations, or the way in which trauma is transmitted down the generations. As Alford argues, ours has been called an age of trauma. Yet, neither trauma nor post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are scientific concepts. Trauma has been around forever, even if it was not called that. PTSD is the creation of a group of Vietnam veterans and psychiatrists, designed to help explain the veterans’ suffering. This does not detract from the value of PTSD, but sets its historical and social context. The author also confronts the attempt to study trauma scientifically, exploring the use of technologies such as magnetic resonance imagining (MRI). Alford concludes that the scientific study of trauma often reflects a willed ignorance of traumatic experience. In the end, trauma is about suffering.

Robert Altman: The Oral Biography (Repost)
Robert Altman: The Oral Biography by Mitchell Zuckoff
2010 | 576 Pages | ISBN: 0307387917 | EPUB | 15 MB
Robert Altman—visionary director, hard-partying hedonist, eccentric family man, Hollywood legend—comes roaring to life in this rollicking oral biography. After an all-American boyhood in Kansas City, a stint flying bombers in World War II, and jobs ranging from dog tattoo entrepreneur to television director, Robert Altman burst onto the scene in 1970 with M*A*S*H. He reinvented American filmmaking, and went on to produce such masterpieces as McCabe & Mrs. Miller, Nashville, The Player, Short Cuts, and Gosford Park. In Robert Altman, Mitchell Zuckoff has woven together Altman’s final interviews; an incredible cast of voices including Meryl Streep, Warren Beatty, Paul Newman, among scores of others; and contemporary reviews and news accounts into a riveting tale of an extraordinary life.

Attachment, Play, and Authenticity: A Winnicott Primer
Steven Tuber, “Attachment, Play, and Authenticity: A Winnicott Primer”
English | ISBN: 0765705427, 0765705419 | 2008 | 252 pages | PDF | 11 MB
D.W. Winnicott is likely the most influential and evocative child therapist and theoretician who ever lived. His work provides the underpinning for much of the empirical and clinical enterprises regarding the developmental process over the past half-century. Using over 25 of his most thought-provoking―indeed provocative―conceptual and clinical writing as its base, Attachment, Play and Authenticity provides a systematic construction of his theorizing and then integrates it with his clinical work. The book begins with a description of Winnicott’s unique ability to link Freudian drive theory with what we now call object relations theory by describing the newborn as a being with “predatory ideas” and the new mother as adaptively “preoccupied” with her baby. It then discusses the infant’s innate need to “create” its mother; the dangers of a false compliance to an unreliable mother in order to survive; the dynamic dialectic between the baby’s essential isolation and its need for others; and the capacity for hate as intrinsic to the humanization process. The role of play as the medium and hallmark of human potential, the creation of transitional phenomena to weather the aloneness of existence and the antisocial qualities inherent in the human condition are then all brought into play as pillars of his conceptual constructions. These themes are constantly interwoven throughout the book with an analysis of his clinical work, so that Winnicott as preeminent clinician sits alongside Winnicott as generative theorist.

Fresca di laurea, Tia Monroe ha tutta l’intenzione di irrompere sulla scena gastronomica di New York City come un ciclone. Ma nel momento in cui l’opportunità di un prestigioso tirocinio va in fumo come un arrosto dimenticato nel forno, improvvisamente realizza che la strada per il successo è ancora tutta da percorrere. In salita. Così quando le si presenta un autentico colpo di fortuna, Tia lo acciuffa al volo. Michael Saltz, il leggendario critico gastronomico del New York Times, le confida un segreto e le fa una proposta: vorrebbe che Tia diventasse il suo palato e la sua ghostwriter. Michael infatti ha perso il senso del gusto, ma una simile ammissione porrebbe fine alla sua prestigiosa carriera. Così i due decidono di aiutarsi a vicenda. Lui mantiene inalterata la sua fama e Tia viene proiettata in un mondo che fino a quel momento ha solo sognato. Ristoranti stellati frequentati dalle celebrità, chef venerati come star di Hollywood. E una successione infinita di portate prelibate da perderci la testa. Per Tia è come essere approdata direttamente in paradiso, fino a quando non realizza la più scontata delle verità. Lei scrive gli articoli, e Michael si prende tutti gli onori. Al netto degli abiti firmati che indossa, Tia è ancora al punto di partenza. Ora la domanda è semplice: quanto è disposta a rischiare per la fama e la vita che ha sempre desiderato?

Leading sports psychologist Jim Afremow, author of The Champion’s Mind, knows what makes good athletes great, especially when they come back to win after facing devastating injuries, tough obstacles, or seemingly insurmountable odds. Making a comeback isn’t just about raw talent or athletic ability―it’s the mental game that counts most.
In The Champion’s Comeback, he offers winning strategies for athletes of any age or skill level to get mentally psyched for competition, quickly rebound after a loss, and overcome injuries (and the fear of re-injury). Afremow explores the psychology of commitment and shows you how to develop the core confidence of repeat champions.
Featuring unique tips and advice, including guided imagery scripts, easy-to-follow mental training exercises, and motivating stories of famous “comeback” athletes, The Champion’s Comeback is the ultimate athlete’s handbook, encouraging you to not only stay in the game but also achieve greatness, no matter what.
