To Have or To Be? - Erich Fromm
To Have Or to Be? is one of the seminal books of the second half of the 20th century. Nothing less than a manifesto for a new social and psychological revolution to save our threatened planet, this book is a summary of the penetrating thought of Eric Fromm. His thesis is that two modes of existence struggle for the spirit of humankind: the having mode, which concentrates on material possessions, power, and aggression, and is the basis of the universal evils of greed, envy, and violence; and the being mode, which is based on love, the pleasure of sharing, and in productive activity. To Have Or to Be? is a brilliant program for socioeconomic change.

To Have or To Hold - Sophie Pavelle
LONGLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR CONSERVATION WRITINGA thrilling exploration of nature’s symbiotic relationships by the award-winning author of Forget Me Not.What can nature teach us about living together? Investigating eight symbiotic relationships trying to survive the climate and biodiversity crises, Sophie Pavelle explains why it has never been more vital for us to understand symbiosis. Symbiotic relationships regulate ecosystems, strengthen resilience and bind pivotal connections, and nature thrives on relationships as glamorous as they are grotesque and as bizarre as they are engrossing.Symbiotic relationships don''t happen accidentally – these dynamics evolved – and species form and sever alliances everywhere, from deep within temperate rainforests to the open ocean, quiet tidal pools or chalk grasslands.In To Have or To Hold, Sophie low-carbon travels in the British Isles relishing the interconnectedness between species, celebrating the relationships underpinning natural environments and sharing some of nature’s frauds, fortune-tellers, misfits and cheaters.The natural world is built on parasitism, a cunning blend of bargaining and exploitation in the name of survival. In our relationship with the natural world, are we the parasites? Will we continue to exploit nature’s resources? Or will we vow to love and cherish what remains – shaping a more restorative life ...

To Have and to Hold - Molly Millwood
A clinical psychologist’s exploration of the modern dilemmas women face in the wake of new motherhoodWhen Molly Millwood became a mother, she was fully prepared for what she would gain: an adorable baby boy; hard-won mothering skills; and a messy, chaotic, beautiful life. But what she did not expect was what she would lose in the challenging transition to parenthood: aspects of her identity, a baseline level of happiness, a general sense of wellbeing. And though she had the benefit of a supportive husband during this transition, she also at times resented the fact that the disruption to his life seemed to pale in comparison to hers. As a clinical psychologist, Molly knew her experience was a normal response to a life-changing event. But without the advantage of such a perspective, many of the patients she treated in her private practice grappled with maternal ambivalence, self-doubt, guilt, and fear, and suffered the dual pain of not only the struggle to adjust but also the overwhelming shame for struggling at all. In To Have and to Hold, Molly explores the complex terrain of new motherhood, illuminating the psychology of motherhood and the ways it affects women psychologically, emotionally, physically, and professionally—as ...

Have You Filled a Bucket Today? - Carol McCloud

It's all in the bucket, that invisible bucket that follows you everywhere... teaches young readers valuable lessons about giving, sharing, and caring.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck : A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life - Mark Manson
In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be positive all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people. For decades, weve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. F**k positivity, Mark Manson says. Lets be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it. In his wildly popular Internet blog, Mason doesnt sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it isa dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, lets-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limitednot everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault.

The Will to Change - Bell Hooks
From New York Times bestselling author, feminist pioneer, and cultural icon bell hooks, a timelessly necessary treatise on how patriarchy and toxic masculinity hurts us all.Feminist writing did not tell us about the deep inner misery of men. Everyone needs to love and be loved—including men. But to know love, men must be able to look at the ways in which patriarchal culture keeps them from understanding themselves. In The Will to Change, bell hooks provides a compassionate guide for men of all ages and identities to understand how to be in touch with their feelings, and how to express versus repress the emotions that are a fundamental part of who we are. With trademark candor and fierce intelligence, hooks addresses the most common concerns of men, such as fear of intimacy and loss of their patriarchal place in society, in new and challenging ways. The Will to Change “creates space for men to acknowledge their traumas and heal—not only for their sake, but for the sake of everyone in their lives” (BuzzFeed).

Seed to Dust - Marc Hamer
*SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE 2021* ''A wholly original, semi-autobiographical book on how to live, how to be calm and content with only a little, in a quietly humming garden'' Daily MailBeautifully illustrated, Seed to Dust is a reflective and restorative account of a life lived in harmony with nature. Marc Hamer has nurtured the same twelve acres of garden for decades. It''s rarely visited so he is the only person who fully knows its secrets.

In Seed to Dust, Marc takes us month-by-month through his experiences both working in the garden and outside it. We encounter new plants and wildlife, gardening folklore and the joys of manual work; we learn, too, about Marc''s path from homelessness to family contentment, and the cycles of change that run through both the garden''s life and our own.''An absorbing combination of memoir, gardening folklore and natural history'' Country Life''Life-affirming...

The Road to Somewhere - David Goodhart
LONGLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE 2018 SUNDAY TIMES, GUARDIAN, TELEGRAPH AND ECONOMIST BOOKS OF THE YEAR 2017''A provocative take on the UK''s new tribal divisions ... a book whose timing is pitch-perfect'' Andrew MarrMany Remainers reported waking up the day after the Brexit vote feeling as if they were living in a foreign country. In fact, they were merely experiencing the same feeling that many British people have felt every day for years. Fifty years ago, people in leafy North London and people in working-class Northern towns could vote for a Labour party that broadly encompassed all of their interests. Today their priorities are poles apart. In this groundbreaking and timely book, Goodhart shows us how people have come to be divided into two camps: the ''Anywheres'', who have ''achieved'' identities, derived from their careers and education, and ''Somewheres'', who get their identity from a sense of place and from the people around them, and who feel a sense of loss due to mass immigration and rapid social change. In a world increasingly divided by Brexit and Trump, Goodhart shows how Anywheres must come to understand and respect Somewhere values to stand a fighting chance against the rise of populism.

Mít, nebo být? - Erich Fromm
Erich Fromm, jehož humanistické knihy již psychologii a filozofii zpřístupnily čtenářům několika generací, zde analyzuje povahu západní společnosti, hledá původ jejích problémů a nabízí alternativu jejího vývoje. Popisuje dva základní způsoby života: Zatímco „mít“ se zabývá získáváním a soutěží, „být“ se zaměřuje na vnitřní spokojenost a harmonii. Naše společnost si cení vlastnictví (majetku, statusu, úspěchu, požitků…), avšak rostoucí ekologické problémy nás nutí ke změně priorit a novému zaměření na sounáležitost se světem, rozvoj tvořivosti, osobní zodpovědnost a svědomí. Fromm své vize nového světa přesvědčivě opírá o učení takových autorit, jako byl Buddha, Ježíš, Mistr Eckhart nebo Albert Schweitzer. Kniha, která poprvé vyšla v roce 1976, se stala Frommovým nejslavnějším dílem. Erich Fromm (1900–1980) byl původem německý sociální psycholog, sociolog, psychoanalytik, humanistický filozof a demokratický socialista, spojený s tzv. frankfurtskou školou a s kulturní psychoanalýzou. Frankfurtská škola představovala západní neomarxistické filozofické hnutí, jež kritizovalo některé aspekty kapitalistické společnosti. Kulturní psychoanalýza vycházela z Freuda, ale oproti jeho učení zdůrazňovala sociokulturní vlivy ve vývoji člověka. Fromm jakožto Žid v roce 1933 emigroval do Spojených států. Konec života strávil ve Švýcarsku. Mezi jeho nejznámější knihy patří např. Strach ze svobody (Portál, 2015), Umění milovat (Portál, 2016), Anatomie lidské destruktivity (Portál, 2019).

The Art of Being - Erich Fromm
How can we realise and actualise love, reason and meaningful, productive work? If the Art of Being - the art of functioning as a whole person - can be considered the supreme goal of life, a breakthrough occurs when we move from narcissistic selfishness and egotism - from having - to psychological and spiritual happiness - being. The Art of Being remains one of the most important and sought-after works in the Fromm canon.Fromm here offers a path to true wellbeing and a way of living based on authentic self-awareness that comes only through honest self-analysis. He warns of the pitfalls of our attaining enlightenment without effort, or believing that life can be lived without pain. The tantalising ''spiritual smorgasbord'' offered by our consumer-oriented world, Fromm maintains, only feeds our illusions of ''easy awareness''. Confronting the psycho-gurus who preach these shortcuts to enlightenment, Fromm offers another way to self-awareness through meditation rather than material gain.This volume is a sequel to one of Erich Fromm''s most popular works, To Have or to Be. In this book, Fromm examines the true paths - as opposed to false directions - that will lead us to self-knowledge and enlightenment. This edition, commemorating thirty years ...

Umění být - Erich Fromm
V letech 1974–1976, kdy zestárlý Fromm pracoval na díle Mít, nebo být, napsal mnohem více kapitol, než kolik jich bylo skutečně užito v knize, jež poprvé vyšla v roce 1976. Některé z nich obsahuje právě tento svazek. Pojednávají o „cestě k bytí“, jež může člověka naučit „umění být“. K němu ho dovedou láska, rozum a tvůrčí aktivita, které – na rozdíl od majetkových předmětů, jež se užíváním spotřebovávají – sdílením a užíváním rostou a znásobují se. Fromm rovněž varuje před představou, že osvícení můžeme dosáhnout bez úsilí, a před vírou, že život lze žít bez bolesti. Jeho cesta k sebeuvědomění a blahu je založena na psychoanalýze a meditaci. V umění být – v umění fungovat jako plná osobnost – lze vidět nejvyšší cíl života. Ten se nám podaří, když se obrátíme od narcistické sebevztaženosti, egoismu a vlastnické orientace k psychologickému a duchovnímu štěstí – k orientaci na bytí. Erich Fromm (1900–1980) byl původem německý sociální psycholog, sociolog, humanistický filozof a demokratický socialista, spojený s tzv. frankfurtskou školou a s kulturní psychoanalýzou. Fromm v roce 1933 emigroval do Spojených států. Konec života strávil ve Švýcarsku. V Portále vyšly jeho knihy Strach ze svobody a Umění milovat.

The Art Of Listening - Erich Fromm
''It is a beautiful book to read; it is not about psychoanalytic technique, but evidence of his warm empathy and humanistic view of his patients'' Betty Gould, Self & SocietyThough thought of as a brilliant social commentator, Erich Fromm was first and foremost one of the great psychoanalysts of our time. These posthumous writings combine two aspects of Fromm''s thinking, showing how he built on Freudian theory and also modified it with his own humanist point of view.For Fromm, the essence of psychological health evolved from the complex interplay and conflict engendered by the meeting of the irrational and rational parts of the personality. In his writing, he was often critical of psychoanalysis but was keen to stress that this was only to stop the practice of psychoanalysis from deteriorating. He strongly believed that analysis existed ''not to cure illness but to help the inner freedom of a person''.This edition, commemorating thirty years since the first English publication of The Art of Listening, redirects attention to Fromm as analyst and master of the art of listening, and features an updated introduction from editor Rainer Funk.

Anatomie lidské destruktivity - Erich Fromm
Kniha, která je někdy pokládána za Frommovo nejoriginálnější a nejkomplexnější dílo, pojednává o různých aspektech agrese, a to za pomoci poznatků z lidské i zvířecí psychologie, neurofyziologie, paleontologie a antropologie. Fromm rozlišuje benigní a maligní agresi. Jenom benigní agresi, která slouží adaptivním účelům, jako například obraně, máme společnou se zvířaty. Na druhé straně maligní agrese – krutost a destruktivita – je výhradně lidská. U člověka jsou instinkty nahrazeny charakterem a ten někdy zejména působením společenských faktorů nabývá sadistické nebo nekrofilní povahy. Fromm to ilustruje na psychobiografii Hitlera a dalších lidí. Kniha z roku 1973, která ani v dnešním světě neztratila svou aktuálnost, bývá oceňována především pro to, jak bravurně vyvrací některé konkurenční přístupy k chápání agrese a destruktivity. Erich Fromm (1900–1980) byl původem německý sociální psycholog, sociolog, psychoanalytik, humanistický filozof a demokratický socialista, spojený s tzv. frankfurtskou školou a s kulturní psychoanalýzou.

Patologie normálnosti - Erich Fromm
Na základě čeho je člověk duševně zdravý? Tak se ptá Erich Fromm ve svých přednáškách z let 1953–1974. To, co je ve společnosti přijato jako normální, může být podle autora ve skutečnosti patologické. V důsledku toho jedinec, který se vyznačuje společensky přijatou patologií, je vnímán jako adaptovaný člen společnosti, a naopak někdo vlastně duševně zdravý může trpět vyloučením do té míry, že se u něj projeví duševní nemoc. A tak je v nemocné společnosti, jež je dnes primárně řízena ekonomickými požadavky, podle Fromma tím zdravým a přizpůsobeným autoritářský, marketingový či nekrofilní charakter. K těmto úvahám přispěl Frommův pobyt v Mexiku, který mu dovolil nutný odstup od průmyslové společnosti soudobých Spojených států amerických. V Mexiku se totiž setkal s lidmi, kteří si dovolují být „líní“ a dávají přednost volnému času před vyděláváním peněz. Fromm zároveň ukazuje, že líný i aktivní je člověk ze svých vnitřních příčin, a tedy nemusí být k aktivitě nucen.

Umění milovat - Erich Fromm
Láska ve všech svých formách představuje základ tvořivé síly, aktivní péči o život, odpovědnost za život a úctu k životu. Praktický prožitek lásky má podobu čistě osobního zážitku, jenž může pociťovat pouze každý sám a ze svého nitra. Hlavní podmínkou pro dosažení tohoto citu je překonání vlastního narcisismu a následné získání schopnosti osvojit si objektivní obraz: vidět lidi i věci takové, jací skutečně jsou. Umění milovat závisí na schopnosti růst, vyvinout tvůrčí orientaci vůči světu i vůči sobě. Niterný proces však vyžaduje radikální společenskou změnu, která umožní splynutí milující povahy člověka s jeho společenskou existencí. Erich Fromm (1900–1980) byl původem německý sociální psycholog, sociolog, humanistický filozof a demokratický socialista, spojený s tzv. frankfurtskou školou a s kulturní psychoanalýzou.

Strach ze svobody - Erich Fromm
Strach ze svobody patří k nejznámějším dílům Ericha Fromma, který ji napsal během exilového pobytu ve Spojených státech, kam musel utéci před Hitlerovým nacismem. Vzhledem k tomu, že lidem z demokratických společností se navzdory faktům zdálo neuvěřitelné, že by nacistickou ideologii i praxi aktivně podporovaly široké vrstvy německého národa, považoval Fromm za nutné vysvětlit psychologické kořeny tohoto úděsného jevu. Výstižně poukazuje na fakt, který nikdo před ním explicitně psychologicky nerozpracoval – fakt dvojznačnosti lidské svobody, jež se může stát otevřením možností, stejně jako cestou do úzkosti z osamění a izolace. Je-li svoboda pojímána oním druhým způsobem, svádí do pasti autoritářství, destruktivity či konformismu. Fromm ve svém díle pátrá, kdy takový strach ze svobody vznikl a co jej podpořilo, a přes všechna svá zjištění se domnívá, že je v lidských schopnostech stát se sebou samým skrze tvorbu, smyslovou radost, lásku či práci.

Chariots of the Gods? - Erich von Däniken
All over the world there are fantastic ruins and objects that cannot be explained by conventional history, archaeology or religion. In the ground-breaking Chariots of the Gods, Erich von Daniken provides answers to these questions...why do religious texts often refer to Gods who descend from fiery chariots? Why do modern space launch sites look like constructions on the plains of Nazca in Peru? Was God an astronaut?By looking at human history and the ruins of ancient civilisations with an open mind, Erich von Daniken offers a new solution to these eternal mysteries in Chariots of the Gods. Why, for instance, do the world's sacred books describe Gods who came down from the sky in fiery chariots and always promised to return? How could an ancient Sanskrit text contain an account which could only be of a journey in an alien craft? Compare photographs of American space centre launch sites to the constructions on the plains of Nazca in Peru.In order to understand the mysteries which Erich von Daniken has catalogued we must go back to these ancient relics with an open mind.

It's something to embrace and be proud of.In this book, Ben introduces readers to some of the most famous, talented and brilliant shy people - including Charles Darwin, David Bowie, Greta Thunberg, Rosa Parks, Beyonce and Emma Watson - who used their special quietness to achieve awesome things, and he shares his tips for growing up shy in a world that can sometimes feel, well, LOUD.Because you don't have to be loud to be liked, and you definitely don't have to be loud to make an impact.

Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, the authors of the New York Times bestseller Rework, are back with a manifesto to combat all your modern workplace worries and fears.It Doesn’t Have to Be Crazy at Work is a direct successor to Rework, the instant bestseller that showed readers a new path to working effectively.

It is a direct attack on the chaos, anxiety and stress that plagues millions of workplaces and billions of people working their day jobs.Working to breaking point with long hours, excessive workload, and a lack of sleep have become a badge of honour for many people these days, when it should be a mark of stupidity. This isn’t just a problem for large organisations; individuals, contractors and solopreneurs are burning themselves out in the very same way. As the authors reveal, the answer isn’t more hours.

What to Save and Why - Erich Hatala Matthes
What does a sanctuary for Hawaiian crows have in common with a troop of robots programmed to perform the MÄori haka, or recreations of World Heritage Sites built in Minecraft?A family heirloom. An endangered species. An ancient piece of pottery. A threatened language. These things differ in myriad ways, but they are tied together by a common thread: they are all examples of things that call out to be saved. The world is brimming with things worth saving, and we have limited time and resources. How do we decide what to save? Why do we make these choices? Philosopher Erich Hatala Matthes explores these questions as they surface in radically diverse contexts--from museums to TikTok, and from National Parks to the corner of your attic. Matthes illustrates the deep relationship between the things we might save and our sense of self. If our cares and concerns are a fundamental part of our identity, then what we care for and preserve will play a significant role in shaping and maintaining our understanding of who we are. In a world in which everything that we care about is subject to powerful forces of change--from climate disturbance and armed conflict, to social transformation ... Unknown localization key: "more"
