The Fear of the Feminine
An insightful exploration of the unconscious fear of the feminine by a pioneering Jungian psychologistErich Neumann was one of C. G. Jung’s most brilliant students and a renowned practitioner of analytical psychology in his own right. This landmark book brings together five of his most illuminating essays on feminine psychology. Neumann discusses the psychological stages of woman’s development, the moon and matriarchal consciousness, Mozart’s Magic Flute, the meaning of the earth archetype for modern times, and the fear of the feminine. He sees in Mozart’s fantastical realm a clash and true coming to terms of the matriarchal and patriarchal worlds. Reflecting a timely concern about the one-sidedness of patriarchal Western civilization, The Fear of the Feminine explains why a synthesis of the feminine and the masculine in the psychic reality of both the individual and the collective is one of the fundamental tasks of contemporary society.
The Origins and History of Consciousness
A landmark account of the evolution of consciousness by one of the twentieth century’s leading Jungian psychologistsThis book draws on a full range of world mythology to show how individual consciousness undergoes the same archetypal stages of development as human consciousness as a whole. Erich Neumann, one of C. G. Jung’s most creative students and a renowned practitioner of analytical psychology in his own right, shows how the stages begin and end with the symbol of the Uroboros, the tail-eating serpent. The intermediate stages are projected in the universal myths of the World Creation, the Great Mother, the Separation of the World Parents, the Birth of the Hero, the Slaying of the Dragon, the Rescue of the Captive, and the Transformation and Deification of the Hero. Neumann traces how, throughout this sequence, the Hero is the evolving ego consciousness. With a foreword by Jung, The Origins and History of Consciousness is an eloquent and enduring meditation on myth and the human psyche.
The Great Mother
A landmark account of the Great Mother as a primordial image of the human psycheIn this book, renowned analytical psychologist Erich Neumann draws on ritual, mythology, art, and records of dreams and fantasies to examine how the archetype of the Great Mother has been outwardly expressed in many cultures and periods since prehistory. He shows how the feminine has been represented as goddess, monster, gate, pillar, tree, moon, sun, vessel, and every animal from snakes to birds. Neumann discerns a universal experience of the maternal as both nurturing and fearsome, an experience rooted in the dialectical relation of growing consciousness, symbolized by the child, to the unconscious and the unknown, symbolized by the Great Mother. With a foreword by Martin Liebscher, The Great Mother is a profound and enduring work by one of the most brilliant thinkers of the twentieth century.
The Trouble with Freedom
An illuminating account of how Americans have been divided by the very value that unites them. America today is being torn apart by the struggle over a single concept, deeply rooted in the country’s sense of self: freedom. Battered by wave after wave of crises, ordinary people of all political persuasions have come to feel that their freedom is under threat – and with it, nothing less than the soul of the nation. In The trouble with freedom, journalist and researcher Melissa Butcher takes a trip into the ferociously polarised world of American politics, hoping to find out what’s going on beneath the surface. Criss-crossing the country, she talks to a wide range of people: Democrat and Republican, gay and straight, urban and rural, immigrants, First Nations, Black, white, the incarcerated. What she discovers is that political conflict is often the outcome of very personal experiences of managing cultural change. Exploring the different ways freedom has been used to define what it means to be American, Butcher encounters anger and distrust, but also untapped possibilities for empathy and care. -- .
The Forest Fights Back
As the world grapples with the escalating climate crisis, ecosystems are collapsing, and the planet’s future hangs in the balance. For centuries, our legal systems have treated nature as something to be owned and exploited, but a bold new movement is challenging this paradigm. In The Forest Fights Back, Jessica den Outer explores a groundbreaking global movement—Rights of Nature—taking on the legal system to recognise the rights of rivers, forests, and mountains to exist, flourish, and sustain their ecological balance. From the fight for the Whanganui River in New Zealand to the battle for Spain’s Mar Menor lagoon, den Outer highlights the campaigns led by grassroots communities, telling stories of determination and legal ingenuity. This movement goes beyond law - it represents a cultural shift that could reshape how we live, think, co-exist and advocate for nature.
Worlds of Islam
From its birth in seventh-century Arabia, Islam has been a faith on the move. In Worlds of Islam, James McDougall explores its origins and transformations from Late Antiquity to the digital age.
Over the span of a thousand years, armies, missionaries, and merchants carried it to the edges of Europe, the coasts of Southeast Asia, and the remote interior of China. By the nineteenth century, Islam encompassed a world of great diversity, from Muslim-ruled empires to nations where Muslims lived out their faith among many others. In the twentieth century, while monarchs in the Gulf asserted dynastic privilege and fundamentalists in Egypt and Pakistan preached social morality, revolutionaries from Algeria to Indonesia fought for national self-determination, and activists in North America and Europe campaigned for civil liberties and social justice.
As empires fell and new superpowers rose, Muslims proved to be as adaptable and dynamic as modernity itself. Sweeping and authoritative, Worlds of Islam narrates the epic story of how Muslims emerged as a community, built empires, traversed the globe, came to number in the billions, and became modern.
The Philosopher’s Ring—Wagner as Thinker and Dramatist
Presents Wagner as a serious philosopher and offers a fresh perspective on the Ring and its unique fusion of myth, human drama, and philosophical insight. Few figures of the nineteenth century were more influential than Richard Wagner, and few works of art have the scope and historical significance of The Ring of the Nibelung. Wagner himself said that it expressed his entire philosophy of life. Yet little attention has been paid to him as a philosopher, aesthetic theories aside. Instead, the Ring has been viewed in the light of Schopenhauer, Feuerbach, or even Hegel. Wagner's own ideas do not deserve this neglect, and this book addresses that omission. It starts with the more widely read philosophers of his day, such as Fichte; in their context Wagner's often fragmentary thoughts reveal a coherent "materialist idealism" that constitutes a late but significant contribution to Classical German philosophy. His acute social and psychological insights are still relevant, and so is the philosophical history that he saw prefigured in Greek tragedy. Wagner's philosophy also illuminates the structure of the Ring and offers fresh insights into the characters and conflicts of that endlessly interpretable work. Approachable and engagingly written, balancing narrative, philosophical analysis, and a detailed consideration of the Ring's four music dramas, The Philosopher's Ring shows the cycle to be a work of unparalleled philosophical depth, one reason that it continues to challenge audiences even now, a century and a half after its premiere.
Gaza
It’s 1 am in central Gaza, and emergency physician Salman Khalid is jolted awake by a text message that simply says, 'mass casualty.' As part of a three-member team providing care at al-Aqsa Hospital, he rushes to the scene, where he is greeted by a heartbreaking sight—a family of five siblings, all under 18, suffering from horrific injuries after their tent in a designated humanitarian zone was bombed while they slept. This despairing reality is a daily occurrence in Gaza, where innocent civilians suffer under the violence of settler colonialism. In Gaza: A Doctor’s Diary, Salman Khalid offers a poignant and deeply personal journal of his month-long volunteer mission in Gaza. Over the course of September 2024, he captures the stark realities of life in a war zone, revealing the harrowing conditions faced by patients and medical professionals alike. With unflinching honesty, he reflects on the trauma, tragedy, resilience, and humanity that persist amid destruction and violence. This firsthand account of the brutality of the genocide in Gaza invites readers to witness the power of compassion in the face of unimaginable horror. All profits from the book will be donated to Humanity Auxilium, an American and Canadian NGO that is one of 25 organisations worldwide that have paired with the WHO to get people and supplies into Gaza.
Zmeňte otázky, zmeňte svoj život
Každému z nás v hlave denne víria desiatky otázok, ktorými reagujeme na vzniknuté situácie. Nie vždy ich formulujeme vedome. Niekedy nám ich nadiktujú emócie, predsudky či minulé skúsenosti. A každá z nich nás v myslení a následnom správaní nasmeruje k iným výsledkom. Ak sa po rozchode či nepodarenej prezentácii v práci pýtate sami seba „Čo je so mnou zle?“, očakávajte úplne iné odpovede (a vnútorné naladenie) ako pri „Ako sa z toho môžem poučiť?“.
Dr. Marilee Adamsová v tejto knihe ukazuje, ako pracovať s otázkami tak, aby sa stali zdrojom riešení, zvedavosti a rastu. Prostredníctvom príbehu Bena Knighta, s ktorým sa ľahko stotožníte, sa zoznámite s mapou výberu – jednoduchou, no mimoriadne efektívnou pomôckou – a s dvanástimi účinnými nástrojmi overenej metodológie otázkového myslenia. Spolu s Benom sa naučíte sledovať svoje okamžité reakcie s odstupom, správne ich interpretovať a pomocou „prechodných“ otázok prejsť zo zväzujúceho nastavenia sudcu na cestu študenta.
Takáto zmena myslenia otvára priestor pre lepšie rozhodnutia, tvorivosť a zásadné posuny – v práci, vo vzťahoch aj v osobnom živote.
Štvrté, rozšírené vydanie medzinárodného bestselleru prináša aj nové poznatky z neurovied o zvládaní stresu a strachu, prenesené do praktických stratégií.
Závislost - když bolest volí za tebe
Tato kniha není o drogách ani o alkoholu.
Je o utrpení, bolesti, studu a vině. O snaze vymanit se z chapadel závislosti, která je v naší společnosti často nepochopena a odsuzována. Závislost zde není popisována jako selhání vůle, ale jako adaptace na bolest, trauma a nepříznivé životní okolnosti. Jako způsob přežití u lidí, kteří bývají často těmi nejcitlivějšími mezi námi.
Závislost: Když bolest volí za tebe je dílo autora, který se dokázal vrátit z hlubin závislosti zpět do života, a dnes pomáhá druhým na jejich cestě k zotavení. Kniha se zároveň opírá o poznatky vědy i zkušenosti z terapeutické praxe. Nezapomíná na trpící rodinu a blízké, ani na pohled společnosti – jednu z největších bariér na cestě k uzdravení a celistvosti.
Nalaď sa na radosť
Cítiť radosť v ťažkom období? Po prežití traumatickej udalosti? Keď sme po krk v problémoch? V hlave nám víria pochmúrne myšlienky, svet sa zdá bezfarebný, život bezútešný a pripadá nám, že nič iné ako temnota neexistuje.
Keď je nám ťažko, máme tendenciu pozitívne pocity nevnímať, dokonca ich odmietať. Napriek tomu výskumy dokazujú, že postoje ako odolnosť, radosť, vďačnosť, nádej a ochota ísť ďalej aj po prežití traumatickej udalosti sú liečivé. No pokiaľ ide o využívanie týchto nástrojov v praxi, psychológia zúfalo zaostáva. Priekopníčkou v tejto oblasti je práve autorka knihy Nalaď sa na radosť. Uznávaná psychologička MaryCatherine McDonald vytvorila koncept zakorenený v neurobiológii pre všetkých, ktorí sa snažia na život nazerať s radosťou. Prichádza s návodom, ako v živote v akejkoľvek situácii nachádzať uhly pohľadu, ktoré temnotu nepopierajú, skôr z nej krok za krokom ukazujú cestu von. Pomáha identifikovať bariéry, ktoré nám v tom bránia, a definuje pozitívne emócie, ktoré k nám prichádzajú v najtemnejších chvíľach a tvoria samotný prazáklad psychickej odolnosti.

The Lord's Prayer: A 40-Day Devotional
The Lord’s Prayer is the most well-known prayer in history. Memorised by millions and spoken in churches, homes, weddings and funerals, it is far more than familiar words – it is a framework for living. When Jesus taught this prayer (Matthew 6:9-13), he was not offering a spiritual formula but giving us a vision of life with God. Each line reveals what matters most: God’s priorities. The prayer begins with the Father’s love, moves through worship, surrender, forgiveness and trust, and ends with eternal hope. In ‘The Lord’s Prayer: A 40-Day Devotional’, J.John guides readers through this prayer over the course of forty reflections built around ten rich themes – each beginning with the letter ‘P’:· God’s Personal love· Praise his name· Align with his Purpose· Adopt his Priority· Rely on his Provision· Walk in his Pardon· Extend Peace· Lean on his Presence· Trust his Protection· Lift your eyes with PerspectiveSome traditions end the prayer with ‘but rescue us from the evil one’, while others include the familiar doxology: ‘For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.’ This devotional honours both, concluding with praise that reflects the heart of Scripture (see 1 Chronicles 29:11). Whether you have prayed the Lord’s Prayer all your life or you are just beginning to explore its meaning, this devotional will help you renew your heart, deepen your faith and realign your life with God’s eternal priorities. Perfect for personal devotion, family use or small-group study, it invites you not just to pray the Lord’s Prayer but to live it – and let it change everything.
Modern and Radical
Why were the last generation of Jews to grow up in Poland before the Holocaust so susceptible to change and new ideas? Despite any major differences between different groups of Jewish youth, whether rich, poor, traditional, orthodox, Zionist, socialist, or communist, the generation as a whole was unified by "radical modernism," engaging with revolutionary political ideologies of the 1930s. Modern and Radical explores the political consciousness of this generation of Jewish youth who came of age in 1930s Poland. Author Kamil Kijek describes how Jewish youth in the 1920s and '30s, unlike their parents and grandparents, attended Polish public schools, adapted to the realities of a Polish national state, and were significantly influenced by both Polish elite and popular cultures – despite the state's emphasis on ethnic Polish nationalism creating a strong feeling of exclusion. This, combined with discrimination in higher education and employment, as well as the growth of antisemitism, created a generation of Jewish youth with a complex, love-hate relationship with the Polish state. Drawing on hundreds of autobiographies penned by young Polish Jews throughout the 1930s, Modern and Radical provides rich insight into how this unique group of Jewish youth in the interwar period experienced life in the emerging national Polish state., reviewing a previous edition or volume

The Maternal Contract
In the Americas, organized state violence takes many forms--from forced disappearance and feminicide to extralegal killings, mass incarceration, and illegal detention. In response, mothers'' organizations and collectives emerged in the 1970s to advocate for their disappeared, imprisoned, and murdered relatives. These organizations fight long and challenging battles for state and corporate accountability, demanding the creation of truth commissions, national memory archives, memory sites, and victim-oriented legislation. By implementing alternative caretaking mechanisms on behalf of survivors and victims, mothers'' organizations have become powerful actors against organized state violence, structural inequalities, and political abandonment. In The Maternal Contract, Elva F. Orozco Mendoza traces the mobilization of mothers'' organizations against organized state violence in the Americas. Drawing on the insights and work of four mothers'' organizations--Las Madres de la Plaza de Mayo, Las Madres de Chihuahua, Colectivo Solecito, and Mothers Reclaiming Our Children, Orozco Mendoza introduces a novel theoretical framework, "the maternal contract," to illustrate how these organizations create and advance their own caretaking structures in the absence of substantive political rights and representation. While these organizations emerged in different times and geographies, Orozco Mendoza argues that they are linked by a powerful commitment to protect subaltern social groups and marginalized subjects against a violence-driven apparatus that disregards human life and dignity. In so doing, she draws attention to the caretaking practices, initiatives, and responsibilities that mothers'' organizations adopt to counter chronic violence and collective suffering.

Rewriting the History of the Great Sphinx
The Great Sphinx has guarded the Giza Plateau in Egypt for many thousands of years. Despite there being relatively little direct evidence, it is generally assumed that this iconic monument is some 4500 years old, built at the same time as Giza’s great pyramids. This book challenges the established history of the Giza Necropolis to present the only comprehensive, evidence-led account of the history and ritual meaning of the Great Sphinx. After re-examining the archaeological evidence and then considering the important role of geology, the book concludes that the Great Sphinx and a number of related monuments, were built at Giza in the earliest stages of the Pharaonic Era – in the period before Egypt’s first pyramids were built. Perhaps more surprisingly, evidence emerges that the Great Sphinx may not have been the first monument built at Giza, with indications of ritual activity at this important site, which pre-dates Egypt’s first pharaohs. By answering these uncertainties regarding the age of the Great Sphinx, a new picture unfolds of what the concept of the human-headed lion meant to the people that originally built it.
How Africa Works
The birth of new nations, independent democracies, the unprecedented growth of cities from Lagos to Cairo; the African continent is booming. So why do myths about underdevelopment, unproductive land and overpopulation remain?
In a groundbreaking new study of Africa's developmental history, economist Joe Studwell debunks long-held views about the continent's presumed resistance to growth, charting monumental changes in government, demography and asset management. Considering everything from settler colonialism to soil conditions, mineral extractivism to disease development and eradication, Studwell persuasively argues that the seizing back of land, people and states across Africa, has also been the seizure of mass economic development.
From slavery to independence and beyond, this is the definitive account of the world's second largest continent - and an optimistic look to its future.
