How can stories and legends, written and oral, help people suffering from severe traumas or harsh conditions, now or in the past? Can storytelling help us sort out our innermost feelings and troubles? This deeply human subject is relevant not only to practitioners of psychotherapy, but to all of us, as we sometimes go through difficult times in life. In <i>Therapeutic Uses of Storytelling</i>, a cross-disciplinary group of researchers examine the ways in which narrative might aid in coping with difficult situations in life, and with the emotions that these situations engender. Starting with an introduction to basic narrative theories and the therapeutic effects of storytelling, the book then moves on to a series of lucid case studies. The authors present a diversity of material such as blogs, poetry, magazines, memoirs, and oral accounts from Antiquity to the present. Authors from several different disciplines make for a diversity of perspectives. The authors specialise in folkloristics, psychology, writing studies, poetry therapy, and classical studies. Psychologists, social workers, researchers, therapists all can benefit from this book, including everyone interested in the possibility of inner exploration through stories. <b>Swedish information text:</b><br/><br/>En intressant studie av intresse för psykologer, socialarbetare, forskare, terapeuter samt skriv- och konstpedagoger!<br/><br/> Hur kan berättelser och legender, skriftliga och muntliga, hjälpa människor som lider av svåra trauman eller svåra förhållanden, nu eller i det förflutna? Kan berättande hjälpa oss att reda ut våra innersta känslor och bekymmer ? Denna djupt mänskliga fråga är relevant inte bara för utövare av psykoterapi, utan för oss alla, eftersom vi alla någon gång upplever svårigheter i livet.<br/><br/> I <i>Therapeutic Uses of Storytelling</i>, har en tvärvetenskaplig grupp forskare undersökt hur berättelser kan hjälpa oss att klara av svåra situationer i livet, eller de känslor som dessa situationer ger upphov till. Boken inleds med en introduktion av grundläggande teorier kring berättande och de terapeutiska effekterna av berättande, därefter får vi ta del av ett antal intressanta fallstudier. Författarna presenterar ett brett spektra av material, som t.ex. bloggar, poesi, tidningar, memoarer och muntlig redovisning från antiken till nutid.<br/><br/> Författarna i boken kommer från en rad olika ämnesdiscipliner vilket skapar en mångfald av perspektiv. Deras specialområden är exempelvis folkloristik, psykologi, skrivstudier, poesiterapi och klassiska studier.

The Laws Of Human Nature Bok
<p>Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of readers, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves. We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defence.</p>

Late Bloomers Bok
<p>A groundbreaking exploration of what it means to be a late bloomer in a culture obsessed with SAT scores and early success, and how finding one's way later in life can be an advantage to long-term achievement and happiness. We live in a society where kids and parents are obsessed with early achievement, from getting perfect scores on SATs to getting into Ivy League colleges to landing an amazing job at Google or Facebook--or even better, creating a startup with the potential to be the next Google or Facebook or Uber. We see software coders becoming millionaires or even billionaires before age 30 and feel we are failing if we are not one of them. But there is good news. A lot of us--most of us--do not explode out of the gates in life. That was true for author Rich Karlgaard, who had a mediocre academic career at Stanford (which he got into by a fluke), and after graduating, worked as a dishwasher, nightwatchman, and typing temp before finally finding the inner motivation and drive that ultimately led him to start up a high-tech magazine in Silicon Valley, and eventually to become the publisher of Forbes magazine. There is a scientific explanation for why so many of us bloom later in life. The executive function of our brains doesn't mature until age 25--and later for some. In fact our brain's capabilities peak at different ages. We actually enjoy multiple periods of blooming in our lives. Based on several years of research, personal experience, and interviews with neuroscientists and psychologists, and countless people at different stages of their careers, Bloom reveals how and when we achieve full potential--and why an algorithmic acuity in math is such an anomaly in terms of career success.</p>

Surrounded By Bad Bosses And Lazy Employees Bok
<p>Surrounded by idiots at work? Fed up with a bad boss or lazy colleagues? Thomas Erikson, author of the runaway international bestseller Surrounded by Idiots, will help you handle them and get things done, the right way Why is good leadership so rare? Everyone has to manage up to some extent but frankly some bosses are worse than others. If you're being driven crazy by a micro-manager, frequently drown under your boss's unreasonable expectations or struggle with being handed out responsibilities but no authority international behavioural expert Thomas Erikson is here to help. Drawing on the simple four-colour system that made Surrounded by Idiots a global bestseller, Erikson shows how understanding your boss's behavioural tendencies as well as your own will lead to a more harmonious and productive workplace. He also sets out what characterises an exemplary leader type and how you can adapt your behaviour to model it. Because there are two sides to every coin, Erikson also looks at employees themselves and why some colleagues frequently underachieve and what you can do to change this. Written with Erikson's signature humour and warmth, Surrounded by Bad Bosses (and Lazy Employees) will help you deal with the most hopeless managers and employees you can imagine - and keep you entertained along the way.</p>
