Psychology - Freda McManus, Gillian ) Butler

Psychology is part of everyone s experience: it influences the way we think about everything from education and intelligence, to relationships and emotions, advertising and criminality. People readily behave as amateur psychologists, offering explanations for what people think, feel, and do. But what exactly are psychologists trying to do? What scientific grounding do they have for their approach? This Very Short Introduction explores some of psychology s leading ideas and their practical relevance.In this new edition, Gillian Butler and Freda McManus explore a variety of new topics and ways of studying the brain. Until recently it was not possible to study the living human brain directly, so psychologists studied our behaviour, and used their observations to derive hypotheses about what was going on inside. Now - through neuroscience - our knowledge of the workings of the brain has increased and improved technology provides us with a scientific basis on which to understand the structure and workings of the brain, and allows brain activity to be observed and measured. Exploring some of the most important advances and developments in psychology - from evolutionary psychology and issues surrounding adolescence and aggression to cognitive psychology - this is a stimulating introduction for anyone interested in understanding the human mind. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy - Freda McManus

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is a form of psychological therapy. It is not a unitary approach, but instead has evolved through a range of approaches that share a common underpinning model of cognition (thought) and behaviour being important in understanding and alleviating psychological distress. While the earliest approaches focused on modifying observable behaviour, later versions emphasized cognitive processes. Most recently, the third wave approaches in CBT have moved the focus away from the content of an individual s thoughts to their relationship with their thoughts, and the processes underlying thinking. This Very Short Introduction gives an overview of what CBT is, where it came from, what it does, and when it can be used. It explores how one of the driving forces behind CBT s success and continued adaptation has been its basis in empiricism, and analyses how it must continue to evolve to meet future challenges. Looking to the future, Freda McManus also discusses how the scale of mental health problems and relative costs of traditional therapy formats have prompted investigations into alternative formats of CBT that have the potential to reach broader audiences, globally. She also considers the challenges of scale in training the workforce required to roll out such interventions, as well as those of determining the best ways of monitoring their competence and effectiveness.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

When Courage Calls: Josephine Butler and the Radical Pursuit of Justice for Women - Sarah C. Williams

Millicent Fawcett once described Josephine Butler as the most distinguished English woman of the nineteenth century . Among the first feminist activists, Butler raised public awareness of the plight of destitute women, worked to address human trafficking and led a vigorous campaign to secure equal rights for women before the law. In her pursuit of justice, Butler did as much for women as William Wilberforce did for African slaves within the British Empire, and yet, while Wilberforce remains a household name, Butler is forgotten. Underpinning Butler s public life of political activism lies the full corpus of her writing and the spirituality that grounded her activism. When Courage Calls offers a profound examination of Butler s inner life of prayer, defined by her radical sense of justice that was able to transform Victorian society. Such conviction offers us a taste of what might be possible for our own time and culture.

Butler - Salena Zito

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERUSA TODAY AND PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER Salena Zito…. She understands you people and me better than we do.” -- President Donald J. Trump“You #39;re going to learn things in this book. Beautifully written. Story after story after story. -- Mark Levin​From the acclaimed journalist standing only a few feet away from the stage when the gunshots began is this gripping first-hand account of the near assassination of Donald Trump – and the inside story of Trump’s heartland-fueled victory. That day in Butler, had the wind gusted less, had Trump’s head turned in a slightly different direction, or had the adrenaline-fueled heart of the shooter beat slower, America would have been plunged into chaos, possibly even civil war. As a local reporter with deep ties to the area, Salena Zito had been invited by the president to interview him at the Butler Farm Show Grounds. She was standing only four feet away from the presidential podium when the bullets started to fly. A campaign staffer tackled her to the ground. Throughout it all, Salena never stopped reporting. She spoke by phone to Trump several times in the immediate aftermath and was granted access to community members, rally participants, family members and local law enforcement officials. “I rarely look away from the crowd,” Trump told her in one of several of those conversations. “Had I not done that in that moment, well, we would not be talking today, would we?” Known for her on-the-ground reporting on populism and rural America, Salena zooms out to tell the fascinating story of the battle for America’s heartland and the issues that actually motivate voters. To understand how and why Trump won the 2024 election, you have to understand places like Butler. Big cities like Los Angeles, New York and D.C. don’t decide who wins election cycles, but people in places like Butler, Pennsylvania sure do. President Trump gave the author extraordinary access for this book, including to his top aides, to his running mate JD Vance, to billionaire supporter Elon Musk, and even his security detail. There are moments that define America. The late afternoon hours of July 13, 2024 was one of them. This book is a narrative of that fateful day, the people of the heartland and the untold story of how the president found his way back into the heart of the electorate.

Notes from a Working-Class Playwright - Leo Butler

Award-winning British playwright, Leo Butler looks back over 25 of writing for the stage and his extensive experience teaching and mentoring emerging playwrights through the Royal Court Young Writers Programme. With honesty and humour, Leo Butler shares his experiences from his working-class upbringing in Sheffield, including his disastrous state education, his years on the dole, to his breakthrough into the professional theatre industry. This personal account criss-crosses his life and career, exploring the influences and experiences that informed critically acclaimed plays such as Redundant, I ll Be the Devil, Lucky Dog and, more recently, Boy. Throughout, Butler includes a wealth of tips and practical exercises, tried and tested on his students, to help the reader with their own playwriting development; discusses the challenges of how to actually make a living from this work; and considers how the landscape has changed today from 25 years ago. Through recollections of collaborations with professional peers and ex-students (including Polly Stenham, Anya Reiss, and Nick Payne), Leo Butler gives an insight into the intricacies of the early 21st century theatre scene in which playwriting skills were developed and shared. He also includes excerpts from personal rejection letters, rehearsal notes and his notebooks to bring his playwriting journey to life. Brutally honest, often surreal, often funny, this book will entertain and inspire anyone who has ever thought of writing, a play, or is interested in the life and practice of a playwright.

History of Psychology through Symbols - James L. Broderick

Volume Two of The History of Psychology through Symbols continues a groundbreaking approach of using symbols to deepen the understanding of psychological history as well as the importance of how one lives, an emphasis on engagement with symbols and with specific exercises, called emancipatory opportunities, to apply the lessons of psychological history to daily life.From the birth of modern psychology in the laboratory of Wilhelm Wundt, Volume Two discusses how the early theories of voluntarism, structuralism, evolution, and pragmatism influenced the modern development of psychology. The importance of making unconscious shadow forces in science conscious is explored through the impact of the eugenic movement, the controversies surrounding the development of psychological testing, and current research biases in psychology. Volume Two describes how clinical psychology emerged as a powerful profession in mental health care. The Four Forces of Psychology are explored through their natural and hermeneutic science influences. Psychoanalytic and Jungian analytical psychology comprise the first force, behaviorism the second force, humanistic-existential the third force, and transpersonal psychology the fourth force that includes a groundbreaking discussion of psychedelic history and research that could revolutionize mental health and drug and alcohol treatment. Rejecting that science transcends historical events, this volume provides a political, socioeconomic, and cultural context for modern psychology and all Four Forces of Psychology.This book is ideal for those seeking a dynamic and engaging way of learning about or teaching the history of psychology and would also be of interest to students, practitioners, and scholars of science, philosophy, history and systems, religious studies, art, and mental health and drug and alcohol treatment, as well as those interested in applying the lessons of history to daily life. Learn more about this groundbreaking text and its symbols on the special website: www.psychologyandsymbols.com.Â

A History of Psychology in Ten Questions - Michael Hyland

This student-friendly book on the history of psychology covers the key historical developments and controversies in all areas of psychology, linking history to the present by focusing on ten conceptual issues that are relevant today. How did psychology become a science, and what kind of science did it become? How do psychologists measure and explain the fact that in some ways everyone is unique? Is psychoanalysis scientific? Why did cognitive science replace behaviorism? This book addresses all these questions and more, covering the whole range of psychology, from neuroscience and artificial intelligence to hermeneutics and qualitative research in the process. Drawing on the authorâ ™s experience of how to make the subject interesting for students, the book is structured around ten key questions that engage with all the core areas of psychology and the main schools of thought. Showing how each of the different approaches or paradigms within psychology differ not based on data but on assumptions, Michael Hyland provides an engaging introduction to debates from history and in contemporary society. Including boxed material on hot topics, historical figures, studies/experiments, and quirky facts, this is the ideal book for undergraduate students of psychology taking CHIPS and other history of psychology modules.

Into the Void - Geezer Butler

Strhující, detailní a upřímné vzpomínky heavymetalového hudebníka a zakládajícího člena skupiny Black Sabbath - kapely, kterou časopis Rolling Stone nazval Beatles heavy metalu . S více než 70 miliony prodaných desek pomohli Black Sabbath vytvořit samotný žánr, a to díky charakteristickým hutným riffům, podladěným kytarám a apokalyptickým textům. Baskytarista a hlavní textař Geezer Butler při tom sehrál obrovskou roli - od návrhu jména kapely, až po využití své fascinace hororem, náboženstvím a okultismem. Příběh, o kterém vypráví Into the Void, se odvíjí z dob, kdy kapela začínala jako bluesové kvarteto v Birminghamu. Butler otevřeně píše o svém dětství v sedmičlenné dělnické rodině i o tom, jak jeho deziluze z organizovaného náboženství a třídních systémů dala vzniknout textům a uměleckým tématům, které bezesporu dodnes silně rezonují s fanoušky po celém světě. Into the Void odhaluje měkčí stránku heavymetalové legendy a popisuje formování jedné z nejvíce vzrušujících rockových kapel. Stejně jako Geezerovy basové linky je originální, dramatická a v mnohém překvapivá.

Zmizelá - Gillian Flynnová - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Zdálo se to jako ideální manželství. Zdání však může vražedně klamat… Amy Elliottová Dunneová zmizela v den pátého výročí svatby. Nick Dunne, její muž, je po sérii nalezených důkazů obviněn z vraždy své ženy. Nick prohlašuje, že nic nespáchal, Amyini přátelé a zápisky v jejím deníku tvrdí opak. Kdo má pravdu? Jak ji poznat? A pokud je Nick nevinný, kam se poděla Amy? Kriminální psychologický román americké spisovatelky Gillian Flynnové z roku 2012 se stal doslova literární senzací – 37 týdnů vévodil žebříčku bestsellerů New York Times a řada periodik ho jmenovala nejlepším thrillerem roku; vyšel ve 46 zemích a dosud se ho prodalo více než 16 milionů výtisků. O dva roky později natočil oscarový režisér David Fincher (Klub rváčů, Sedm, Muži, kteří nenávidí ženy) filmovou adaptaci, Rosamund Pike byla za roli Amy nominována na Oscara.

Ostré předměty - Gillian Flynnová - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Stěží si představit hrůznější zločin než uškrcení malé holčičky. Zapomenuté missourijské maloměsto Wind Gap se ještě nevzpamatovalo z jedné brutální vraždy, a už je tu další, stejně strašná a nepochopitelná. Proč nevinné dívky? A proč jim vrah vytrhal skoro všechny zuby? Pro mladou chicagskou reportérku Camille Preakerovou, která ve Wind Gap vyrůstala, je takový případ vítaným sólokaprem. Jenže to, co se zprvu zdálo jako kariérní příležitost, získá nakonec mnohem osudovější a tragičtější podobu. Ukáže se, že posedlost jde v tomto příběhu až na krev. A to do slova a do písmene. Kontroverzní, znepokojivý psychothriller Gillian Flynnové, podle kterého HBO natočila dramatickou minisérii s Amy Adams v hlavní roli, stojí na počátku autorčiny úspěšné spisovatelské kariéry: její knihy (vycházejí v jednačtyřiceti jazycích) od té doby neopouštějí žebříčky bestsellerů – ani hlavy čtenářů.

In this book he takes us from Bethlehem and the birth of Christ some 2000-odd years ago, to the immediate present and future of Christianity. He brings together a Baptist Church in the segregationist American South with a medieval monastery in the heart of the Greek countryside; the Vatican - beautiful, imposing, vainglorious, the seat of Catholicism - with a sparse, tiny private church above the rocky coastline of Southern Japan. Twelve Churches is a quest for a new people s history of Christianity, told through the stories of twelve churches scattered across the globe. Through a patchwork of interlinking and varied human stories, Butler-Gallie takes us on a physical and historical journey, exploring the role of hope, faith and beauty in Christianity, but also its fraught relationships with sex, violence and power. The story of Christianity is, he shows, the story of our modern world: it s a story of who we should be, as well who we sometimes are.
