Szétszórt elmék - A figyelemhiányzavar gyógymódja
Több mint húsz évvel ezelőtt jelent meg dr. Máté Gábor alapműve az ADHD-ról, amelyet most új előszóval olvashatunk.
Népbetegség a figyelemzavar és a hiperaktivitás? Vagy csak a gyerekek szenvednek tőle? Honnan ered és hogyan gyógyítható?
A világhírű magyar lélekgyógyász nemcsak magát tartja figyelemzavarosnak, de három gyermekét is hiperaktív figyelemzavarral diagnosztizálták. Nem csoda hát, ha a téma mélyére akart hatolni, meg akarta ismerni a betegség eredetét, hogy közelebb kerüljön a gyógyításához is. A Szétszórt elmék gyökeresen új szemlélettel közelíti meg ezt a sokakat érintő témát, valamint új módszereket is kínál, hogy segítsen azoknak a gyerekeknek és felnőtteknek, akiknek nap mint nap meg kell küzdeniük a figyelemzavar és a hiperaktivitás okozta gondokkal.
A Szétszórt elmékben dr. Máté Gábor bebizonyítja, hogy a figyelemzavar nem örökletes betegség, hanem visszafordítható károsodás. Rávilágít, hogy a figyelemzavaros agyban az érzelmek és a figyelem kontrolljáért felelős területek nem fejlődnek ki kisgyerekkorban - és arra is, hogy miért. Megtudhatjuk, hogy élettapasztalatunk pszichológiai "terméke" - már az anyaméhen belül is! -, hogy a figyelmünk elterelhető, hogy gyakran "kikapcsolunk". A kötet segít a szülőknek megérteni, miért vannak indulatkitörései a figyelemzavaros gyerekeknek, az ezzel a problémával küzdő felnőtteket pedig rávezeti, hogyan értelmezhetik érzelmeiket és saját viselkedésüket.
A Szétszórt elmék reménnyel töltheti el az olvasót, hogy a figyelemzavaros felnőtteknek is jók az esélyeik a gyógyulásra. Olyan programot ajánl, amelynek a segítségével gyerekekben és felnőttekben egyaránt előidézhető ez a pozitív változás.

What It Takes To Heal
What would it do to movements, to our society and culture, to have the principles of healing at the very center? What does it mean to center healing in every structure and everything we create?
As we emerge from the past few years of collective upheaval, are we ready to face the complexities of our time with joy, authenticity, and connection? Now more than ever, we must learn to heal ourselves, connect with one another, and embody our values. In this revolutionary book, Prentis Hemphill shows us how.
What It Takes to Heal asserts that the principles of embodiment - the recognition of our body's sensations and habits, and the beliefs that inform them - are critical to lasting healing and transformation. Hemphill, an expert embodiment practitioner, therapist, and activist, who has partnered with Tarana Burke and Esther Perel, among others, shows us that we don't have to carry our emotional burdens alone. Hemphill demonstrates a future in which healing is done in community, weaving together stories from their own experience as a trauma survivor with clinical accounts and lessons learned from their time as a social movement architect.
In this life-affirming framework for the way forward, Hemphill shows us how to heal our bodies, minds and souls - to develop the interpersonal skills necessary to break down the doors of disconnection and take the necessary risks to reshape our world towards justice.
Coming of Age
A leading expert in adolescent psychology transforms our understanding of this most formative life-stage
Adolescence is the most dramatic and formative period of our lives. It is when we become who we are, when the smallest things can have life-long effects. But it is also full of contradictions, making it bewildering to live through and widely misunderstood. We may struggle to understand the adolescents in our lives, but most of us have yet to come to terms with our own adolescence.
In this expert, empowering book, Lucy Foulkes draws on the latest research and in-depth interviews to demystify adolescent behaviours – friendship, risk-taking, sex, love, bullying and more – and expose the surprising and often moving reality beneath them. We see that teenagers are far more conservative than rebellious; that apparent recklessness is often calculated and risk-averse; that popularity is a mixed blessing even as friendships can be a life-changing good. We understand why social hierarchies are so fiercely policed, even while adolescents have an extraordinary capacity for empathy and mutual support; why appearances are overly important, and why rejection at this age hurts so much. We see that even the most difficult experiences are part of this essential and life-shaping process of self-discovery.
If our identities are a story, then the crucial first draft is written in adolescence. Coming of Age helps us read that story with clarity and compassion so that we can appreciate the adolescents we know but also those we once were – those wild and fragile people who helped us become who we are.

The Golden Rule
Today, we are living longer lives, and have choices now as never before about how we will age. What will make us happy? What are we frightened of, and what might allay those fears? What changes, made right now, will help us to flourish as we age?
This book contains lessons I've learned from thirty years of working with older people and those close to them. It looks at problems that can be fixed with tests and tablets, and problems that require a different sort of medicine. I explain what I have been taught about loss, about impossible families, about becoming older without children, and the important things I have learned about sexuality, race, love, and living with uncertainty.
The power has been in the wrong place for too long – medical teams have not always heard the voices of older people or those who love them. But if we are given power to influence the lives of our future selves, how best shall we use it? What do we want? What difference can we make?
This is the moment for us to act, to set in place a better society for older people, and to build the future we want for ourselves.
Emberi játszmák
Az Emberi játszmák Eric Berne pszichiáter sikerkönyve, amely millióknak segített értelmezni az emberi kapcsolatok dinamikáját, és annak megértését, mi is történik valójában a legalapvetőbb interakcióink során. Izgalmas és szórakoztató módon mutatja meg a kapcsolataink mögött meghúzódó motivációkat, és feltárja azok rejtett hátterét.
A játszmák dinamikájának megértése mind a szakemberek, mind a művelt laikusok önismeretét és ítéletalkotását segítik, amikor mások, vagy akár saját viselkedésük megértésére törekszenek. Talán fogalmazhatunk így: ez a gondolkodás, ezek a fogalmak sokat segíthetnek az emberi kapcsolati működés megértésében.
Önismeretünk, és az emberi problémák világában való eligazodás hatékony és szellemes eszközét nyerhetjük a Berne által megalkotott, majd az őt követő tranzakcióanalitikusok révén továbbfejlesztett szemlélet megismerésével és használatával, amely aztán teret hódított a nevelés, a tanácsadás és a szervezetfejlesztés világában is.
1964-es első megjelenése óta az Emberi játszmák ma is minden idők egyik legnépszerűbb pszichológiai kiadványa.

The Power of Words
Discover the transformative power of words and conversations in The Power of Words, the profound and inspiring international bestseller by renowned neuroscientist Mariano Sigman.
We have hundreds of conversations every week, offline, online and even in our heads. But have you ever stopped to think about the words you use? The way we describe ourselves and the world around us shapes our decisions, emotions and actions.
Mariano Sigman, the world-leading neuroscientist and bestselling author, shows that conversation is one of the most important tools for positive change, better relationships and improved critical thinking. Drawing on extensive research, he demonstrates that our minds are much more malleable than we think, and even the smallest shifts in our language can transform our habits and our perception. By understanding this, we can break free from patterns of limiting beliefs and tackle the disinformation we all face daily.
Offering practical guidance based on the latest psychology and neuroscience, this witty and intelligent book urges us to be open to the possibility of our own fallibility. By embracing conversations as a tool for growth, we can learn to communicate better with others and, most crucially, ourselves, giving us a more rewarding and successful life.

As If Human
A new approach to the challenges surrounding artificial intelligence that argues for assessing AI actions as if they came from a human being “Elegant and erudite.”—John Thornhill, Financial Times Intelligent machines present us every day with urgent ethical challenges. Is the facial recognition software used by an agency fair? When algorithms determine questions of justice, finance, health, and defense, are the decisions proportionate, equitable, transparent, and accountable? How do we harness this extraordinary technology to empower rather than oppress? Despite increasingly sophisticated programming, artificial intelligences share none of our essential human characteristics—sentience, physical sensation, emotional responsiveness, versatile general intelligence. However, Nigel Shadbolt and Roger Hampson argue, if we assess AI decisions, products, and calls for action as if they came from a human being, we can avert a disastrous and amoral future.
The authors go beyond the headlines about rampant robots to apply established moral principles in shaping our AI future. Their new framework constitutes a how-to for building a more ethical machine intelligence.

Žena ve středním věku
Kniha Žena ve středním věku popisuje období ženy od 45 do 64 let, od velmi produktivního věku po období, kdy žena ve většině případů odchází do důchodu. Je to období, kdy je vhodné zamyslet se nad vztahy s druhými lidmi, s mužem, se širší rodinou. Možná zvážit, zda být k sobě laskavější, zda míru obětavosti ve vztahu ke druhému korigovat nebo zda je v pořádku. Je to období, kdy se proměňuje role ženy a některé role jsou pro ni nové – role tchýně, babičky … Je to také období, kdy je fajn popřemýšlet, zda něco udělat nově – nechat si pomoct od druhého, zpomalit. Kniha je napsána jako zamyšlení ženy v tomto období, klade si různé otázky a je typická slovy: zastavme se …

Unstressable
Unstressable applies Mo Gawdat's brilliant engineering mind and Alice Law's psychology and stress-management expertise to the 'stress pandemic'.
This follow up to bestselling Solve For Happy will show you that chronic stress is not an unavoidable part of modern life, but a predictable – and therefore preventable – response, often as much to do with negative thought patterns as external circumstances. Mo explains how he made it through the most acutely stressful times in his own life, and the book touches on the idea of post-traumatic growth – both on a personal level and in response to huge events that affected all of us, such as the COVID pandemic and subsequent economic turmoil.
Practical exercises will help you build up the skills to manage stress no matter your circumstances, backed up by neuroscience and accessible psychology.

Nostalgia: A History of a Dangerous Emotion
In Nostalgia: A History of a Dangerous Emotion, Agnes Arnold-Forster blends neuroscience and psychology with the history of medicine and emotions to explore the evolution of nostalgia from its first identification in seventeenth-century Switzerland (when it was held to be an illness that could, quite literally, kill you) to the present day (when it is co-opted by advertising agencies and politicians alike to sell us goods and policies).
Nostalgia is a social and political emotion, vulnerable to misuse, and one that reflects the anxieties of the age. It is one of the many ways we communicate a desire for the past, dissatisfaction with the present and our visions for the future. Arnold-Forster’s fascinating history of this complex, slippery emotion is a lens through which to consider the changing pace of society, our collective feelings of regret, dislocation and belonging, the conditions of modern and contemporary work, and the politics of fear and anxiety. It is also a clear-eyed analysis of what we are doing now, how we feel about it and what we might want to change about the world we live in.

May Contain Lies
A ground-breaking book that reveals why our human biases affect the way we receive and interpret information, with practical suggestions for how to think more critically
Our lives are minefields of misinformation. Stories, statistics and studies lie to us on a daily basis. Not only this but, as Professor Alex Edmans reveals, our brains lie to us too. He argues that we need to acknowledge and understand the role that our own human biases play in interpreting and digesting the information that we consume. It's only when we do, that we can actively resist being manipulated, and make informed decisions that improve our lives.

Influence
One of the government's former behavioural scientists reveals how you can do what you want, whilst everybody tries to influence you into doing what they want.
Influence makes you think what you think and do as you do. You use it to change the thoughts and behaviours of others - just as others use it change yours.
We have been perfecting our influence for millions of years, but in the last 20 years digital technologies have revolutionised how influence works. We are now connected to old school friends and niche interest groups - but unwittingly also to organised criminals, terrorists and hostile states who infiltrate our societies. The course of history is being shaped: elections have been hijacked, lies spread about pandemics and the rapidly heating climate, and information has become as important as bullets and bombs to winning wars. More than ever, influence has become the crucial currency for commercial and political gain: If you don't understand it, you will likely become its victim.
Written by a former government behavioural scientist working at the cutting edge of this field, Influence is a groundbreaking guide to the chaotic and murky world we live in. Through examining five key factors we are taken on a tour from the past to our real-world present, to build a picture of the major role influence plays in everyday life.
Influence provides a simple personal plan illustrating how you can use influence to achieve your goals - whether gaining that promotion, getting your friends to a music festival, or your children to eat their greens. But by understanding the nature of influence, you will also see how it is changing in the information age, enabling dangerous adversaries to gain power, leaving our societies in peril. Most importantly, by using the tools of influence you will be empowered to play your part in protecting us - it will be down to you and everyone you know.
Influence is a fascinating guide to how you can help by understanding it, using it and resisting it.

The Ritual Effect
In this ground-breaking and inspiring guide, a renowned Harvard psychologist demonstrates how turning everyday habits into rituals can improve our work, our relationships and our lives.
Think of the quirky traditions that you keep up with your friends.
Or the unusual ways that you and your family mark special occasions.
Or the gifts that your partner gives - and what you'd think if they'd bought the same for an ex.
These are rituals- practices that are imbued with symbolic meaning. And they have the power to turn black-and-white moments into technicolour.
Along the way, Norton shares stories from sporting superstars (Serena Williams always bouncing the ball five times before her first serve), million-dollar companies (Zipcar urging staff to destroy their old desktops with sledgehammers) and ordinary people (inventing their own "ritual signatures"), who reimagine everyday moments, build camaraderie, and spark joy.
Rituals can help us to forge winning teams, heal families experiencing grief and encourage us rise to challenges, big or small. Now it's time to create yours.

A Little History of Psychology
A rich and engaging guide to psychology, the science devoted to understanding human nature
What really drives our decisions? Where do language and memory come from? Why do our minds sometimes seem to work against us? Psychologists have long attempted to answer these questions, seeking to understand human behaviour, feelings, and thoughts. But how to explore something so elusive?
In this fascinating history, leading expert Nicky Hayes tells the story of psychology across the centuries and around the world. Hayes introduces key thinkers, including Carl Jung, Anna Freud, Frantz Fanon, and Daniel Kahneman. We see how they tried to expand our understanding, from Pavlov and his dogs to Milgram and his famous electric shock experiments to the CIA's secret mind-control projects. Hayes explores key concepts like child development, the inferiority complex, and PTSD and shows how psychological research has been used for both good and ill.
This Little History shines a light on the ever-advancing study of psychology, how the field has evolved over time-and how much more we need to learn.

The Anxious Generation
AN FT, OBSERVER AND NEW SCIENTIST 'BOOK TO LOOK OUT' FOR IN 2024
An urgent and insightful investigation into the collapse in youth mental health, from the influential social psychologist and international bestselling author
Jonathan Haidt has spent his career speaking wisdom and truth in some of the most the most difficult spaces - communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the perfect storm contributing to a public health emergency for teenagers today.
In The Anxious Generation, Haidt argues that for the cohort that hit puberty around 2009, their sense of self developed as the threads of three dramatic technological and social changes emerged: smartphones and life with the constant companionship of a screen, front-facing cameras and apps that thrive on selfie-culture, and social networks that reduce engagement and affirmation to likes and hearts alone.
This book shows how the ground for the current crisis in teen mental health was seeded by a decades-long shift from play-based childhoods to ones defined by over-supervision, structure, and fear: how adults began to overprotect children in the real world while unwittingly offering scant protection in the brutal online world. Haidt delves into the latest psychological and biological research to show the four fundamental ways in which a phone-based childhood disrupts development - sleep deprivation, social deprivation, cognitive fragmentation, and addiction - while offering concrete and scientifically based advice to parents, schools, universities, governments, and to teens themselves. Drawing on ancient wisdom and cutting-edge research, this eye-opening book is a life-raft and a powerful call-to-arms.

Empathetic, enlightening, deeply human' Michael Harris, author of Solitude
In stories of love and loss, of trauma and hope, told from care homes, living rooms, classrooms and kitchens, All the Lonely People is an intimate portrait of loneliness. Over countless cups of tea, psychologist Dr Sam Carr has collected hours of conversations with people young and old, including single parents, carers, teenagers and the bereaved, and found that while each of their stories is utterly unique, they are all born out of the same desire for human connection.
As Carr interweaves these touching and powerful tales with his own personal narrative, he opens a window onto the inner lives of regular people – the forgotten, misplaced or misjudged – who all feel isolated in some way. Sparking a profound conversation about a universal emotion, which may simply be an inevitable part of life, he questions what we can do to build stronger human relationships and be a part of something bigger than ourselves in an increasingly disjointed world.

Free Therapy
Two teenage girls fixated on each other's bodies enter into a destructive competition; a woman's encounter with her ex forces her to reflect on the women's group that saved her; a couple's future is called into question after the damp expert they hire for their bathroom offers them free counselling; an older man's buried grief emerges during an altercation with a mother driving a 4×4; and over the course of a bitter winter a waitress lacks the money to fix an impacted tooth as the cracks begin to show in her precariously balanced life.
Free Therapy takes us into the inner lives of women and men who are versed in the language of therapy, possessed with the self-knowledge needed to change their lives, but finding themselves unwilling to doing so. As her characters try and fail to connect - via sex, friendship, screens and work - Rebecca Ivory explores desire in all its forms, revealing the ways in which we posture and present, and the softness and insecurities that lie beneath.
Perfectly observed, wry and illuminated by moments of sympathy and wisdom, Free Therapy shows us ourselves as we truly are.
