Mental Health History

This all-time classic is still perhaps the most prestigious and influential book of strategy in the world, as eagerly studied in Asia by modern politicians and executives as it has been by military leaders since ancient times. As a study of the anatomy of organizations in conflict, The Art of War applies to competition and conflict in general, on every level from the interpersonal to the international. Its aim is invincibility, victory without battle, and unassailable strength through understanding the physics, politics, and psychology of conflict.

Depression has become the most frequently diagnosed chronic mental illness, and is a disability encountered almost daily by mental health professionals of all trades. "Major Depression" is a medical disease, which some would argue has reached epidemic proportions in contemporary society, and it affects our bodies and brains just like any other disease. Why, this book asks, has the incidence of depression been on such an increase in the last 50 years, if our basic biology hasn't changed as rapidly?

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.

Spojrzenie na historię poprzez pryzmat erotycznego życia władców. Autorka przedstawia w niej plejadę erotomanów, impotentów, homoseksualistów oraz ich żon: niekiedy nieszczęśliwych i neurotycznych, często nimfomanek i ladacznic.

Stara się pokazać władców jako ludzi, z ich słabościami, perwersjami, wewnętrznymi dramatami. Opisuje rozrywki, jakim oddawano się na królewskich dworach, a także obyczajowość tamtych czasów.

Жизнь американского философа Уильяма Джеймса (1842—1910), ведущего представителя прагматизма и функционализма, которого принято называть "отцом современной психологии", не была богата событиями, не считая того, что он дважды удостаивался чести возглавить Американскую психологическую ассоциацию, основал в Гарварде, где бессменно преподавал, первую в США лабораторию прикладной психологии, а на склоне лет увлекся спиритизмом. Но зато после смерти великого ученого начались приключения его теорий, которые то опровергали и низвергали, то вновь возносили на пьедестал, то благополучно забывали — чтобы вернуться к ним десятилетия спустя.

Nati 3.000 anni fa nell'antica Grecia e tornati in auge verso la fine del XIX secolo, i Giochi Olimpici sono diventati la competizione sportiva più popolare a livello mondiale. Dall'VIII secolo a.C. fino al IV secolo d.C., i giochi si svolsero ogni quattro anni a Olimpia, una città nell'ovest della penisola del Peloponneso, in onore del dio Zeus. I primi Giochi Olimpici dell'era moderna furono ospitati ad Atene nel 1896 e videro 280 atleti di 13 nazioni confrontarsi in 43 discipline diverse.

David W. Powell enlisted for a tour of duty in April 1966 with the US Marines after receiving an imminent draft notice. Believing he would be able to leverage his existing skills as a computer programmer, he never thought all they would see on his resume was his Karate expertise. Even less that he would wind up serving as a Rocket man in the jungles of Da Nang and Chu Lai for a 13 month tour in hell. David's journey from naive civilian to battle-hardened combat veteran shows us all how fragile our humanity really is.

Many theories that form the bedrock of good parenting were created decades before devices even existed - they don't consider the significant impact on a child's psychological and physical development. The landscape of the early years has changed so quickly, yet parents and caregivers do not have access to the evidence-based, practical advice they need to manage this invasion of screens. They can see their children become addicted to devices, but don't know what to do. Generation Zombie will fill this knowledge gap.

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?
