Inconscient, désir, pulsions, mais aussi psychométrie, troubles en tous genres... Voici l'essentiel des notions de psychologie, pour tous ceux qui souhaitent découvrir la discipline dans une démarche professionnelle ou personnelle. La psychologie est une science humaine qui a beaucoup évolué ces vingt dernières années. L'objectif : l'aborder sous les notions les plus modernes, en laissant une part limitée aux approches psychanalytiques, dont les concepts principaux et la grille de lecture sont essentiels à la compréhension de plusieurs notions.

For most of human history, mental illness has been largely untreatable. Sufferers lived their lives - if they survived - in and out of asylums, accumulating life's wreckage around them. In 1948, all that changed when an Australian doctor and recently returned prisoner of war, working alone in a disused kitchen, set about an experimental treatment for one of the scourges of mankind - manic depression, or bipolar disorder. That doctor was John Cade and in that small kitchen he stirred up a miracle.

In this clear-sighted and provocative exploration of psychiatry, acclaimed sociologist Andrew Scull traces the history of its attempts to understand and mitigate mental illness: from the age of the asylum and unimaginable surgical and chemical interventions, through the rise and fall of Freud and the talking cure and on to our own time of drug companies and antidepressants. Through it all, Scull argues, the often vain and rash attempts to come to terms with the enigma of mental disorder have frequently resulted in dire consequences for the patient.

This 1914 work is a polemic against competing theories in psychotherapy, directed at those who opposed his psychoanalysis. Adler and Jung, for example, had previously been followers of Freud but objected to his emphasis on sexual matters. The book is divided into three chapters, through which Freud threads a history of psychoanalysis from his perspective.

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) is known around the world as the "Father of Psychoanalysis", and for good reason. If anything, Freud's first patient was himself. A sufferer of psychosomatic symptoms, Freud diagnosed himself as having a repressed antagonism against his father. From there, Freud began to build on his now famous concepts of the unconscious, infantile sexuality and repression.

패션이라는 개념은 왜 르네상스 시대에 생겨났을까? 스타일은 어떻게 타인을 설득하는 기술인 수사학에서 비롯되었을까? 주름이나 단추는 왜 소수의 권력자들만이 가질 수 있는 장식이었을까? 페미니즘 역사에 큰 영감을 준 작가 버지니아 울프는 왜 옷 입기를 그토록 두려워했을까? 속옷으로 입던 티셔츠가 세계대전으로 인해 겉옷이 된 사연은 무엇일까? 프랑스 사람들은 정작 '프렌치 시크'에 무덤덤한 이유는 무엇일까?

In the summer of 1971, a psychology study at Stanford University morphed into a chilling demonstration of human behavior under the pressures of authority and submission. The Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE), led by psychologist Dr. Philip Zimbardo, aimed to explore the psychological effects of power and control in a simulated prison. What began as a planned two-week study unraveled in just six days, as participants—ordinary college students randomly assigned as 'guards' or 'prisoners'—descended into extreme and often disturbing behaviors.

Il genio di Freud è largamente riconosciuto non solo nel campo della psicoanalisi. Le sue teorie hanno rivoluzionato in modo definitivo il pensiero occidentale. Ma quello che colpisce nella sua opera è l'anticonformismo, che si traduce in un'audacia teorica mai provocatoria e sempre razionale. Freud scopre l'Edipo scrivendo sul sogno poco dopo la morte di suo padre. Afferma che la sessualità determina la vita umana. E colloca all'origine della vita sessuale un desiderio ingovernabile che chiama "pulsione".

The human mind can often seem mysterious, yet there are patterns to our behavior and laws governing the biology of the brain that psychologists have long sought to understand. From the ways we learn to our social interactions and our unique personalities, psychologists have developed valuable insights into the principles and rules that shape our minds.

The birth of psychiatry in the early nineteenth-century fundamentally changed how madness was categorized and understood. A century on, their conceptions of mental illness continue to influence our views today. Beliefs and behavior were divided up into the pathological and the healthy. The influence of religion and the supernatural became significant measures of insanity in individuals, countries, and cultures. Troubled by Faith explores these ideas about the supernatural across society through the prism of medical history.

In 1877, a young Freud met an established physician named Josef Breuer and they began a collaboration that would lead to the publication of the classic work, Studies on Hysteria. But by the time it released, Freud was moving to establish himself as a major figure in the treatment of mentally ill patients, and would let no one stand in his way. He consequently minimized Breuer's contributions, betraying his former mentor and benefactor.

Tune in, turn on, drop out. So said Timothy Leary, global figurehead for '60s psychedelic culture and 'the most dangerous man in America' according to President Nixon.

We have always created and destroyed monsters. They give form to what we don't wish to know or understand; to our anxieties and irrational terrors. They have helped us manage the extraordinary complexity of our minds and deal with the challenges of being human. In Enchanted Creatures, Natalie Lawrence delves into the dark histories of creatures we have imagined over 15,000 years of history: from strange beasts carved in Palaeolithic caves and hybrid snake women, to deep-sea leviathans and apocalyptic dino-monsters.
