Pszichológus a polcon – Családi kríziseink
A Pszichológus a polcon című sorozat első kötete olyan élethelyzetekben nyújt támogatást, amelyek komoly lelki küzdelmeket, válságokat rejthetnek magukban: egy gyermek születése, az iskolakezdés, egy válás vagy egy családtag elvesztése.
A krízisek lehetséges okait, a megoldásra váró feladatokat, valamint a hozzájuk kapcsolódó belső folyamatokat több évtizedes szakmai tapasztalata alapján, valódi történeteken keresztül mutatja be Szakács Adrienn Anna pszichológus, akinek az a célja, hogy olvasmányos, közérthető formában nyújtson kapaszkodót: segítséget az önismeretben és abban, hogy az olvasó bátran indulhasson el a megoldás felé vezető úton.
A szerző külön figyelmet fordít a tartós kapcsolatokra, valamint arra, hogy milyen fontos, hogy a felek közösen hozzanak létre egy új családot saját értékrenddel, szabályokkal, normákkal. Szintén nagy hangsúlyt helyez az otthon fogalmára, bemutatva, hogy milyen mély szerepet tölt be életünkben.
A kötet szól még a várandósság időszakáról, a gyermeknevelés fontos állomásairól, a szorongásról, a kamaszkor kihívásairól, de a digitáliseszköz-használatról is. Szó esik az életben betöltött szerepeink egyensúlyáról, a kiégés veszélyeiről, valamint az emlékezés, a gyász és a súlyos betegségekkel való megküzdés lehetőségeiről is.
Azokhoz szól, akik szeretnének tudatosan, kiegyensúlyozottan haladni saját életútjukon, akár szülőként, akár társként, akár önmaguk jobb megismerésére törekvő emberként.

Všetky sondy sú dvojzložkové. Ich súčasťou sú krátke perexy, ktoré poskytujú stručné bibliografické údaje, opisujú okolnosti vzniku textu, formy jeho existencie, kontextualizáciu v slovenskej literatúre, ale aj v medziliterárnych súvislostiach a zdôvodnenie interpretačného záujmu o text. Samotné interpretačné texty majú povahu čítania a lektúr jednotlivých textov. Predstavujú celoživotnú čitateľskú a interpretačnú skúsenosť autora. Sondy do slovenskej prózy interpretujú napríklad texty autorov ako Jozef Ignác Bajza, Ján Botto, Jonáš Záborský, Božena Slančíková-Timrava, František Švantner, Dominik Tatarka, Ján Johanides, Ladislav Ballek, Vincent Šikula, Dušan Kužel, Alta Vášová, Rudolf Sloboda, Pavel Vilikovský, Stanislav Rakús, Dušan Mitana, Dušan Dušek, Ivan Habaj, Peter Pišťanek, Monika Kompaníková, Jana Beňová, Ivany Dobrakovovej a ďalších.
Work Psychology and the Climate Crisis
This book explores the psychological impact of climate change on organisations and individuals, encouraging the reader to consider the ways in which they can take action to address this critical issue.Written in a clear and concise style, with an emphasis on the application of theory to practice, the author takes topic areas from work psychology to help readers identify methods which are appropriate to them personally and for their organisations. Topics such as the management of change, leadership, engagement, and wellbeing at work are of interest to many professionals in the workplace. The climate crisis makes it even more important that these issues are addressed in a systematic, robust, and effective manner. This is a handbook of the psychological principles underpinning the actions required to support, encourage, and enable individuals, managers, and leaders to implement the range of actions required in their organisations and practice.This is a valuable resource for students, academics, and practitioners of occupational psychology, environmental psychology, and sustainable business. It will also be of interest to a variety of other practitioners and researchers interested in climate mitigation, as well as businesses and HR professionals looking to use occupational psychology in their climate strategies, and those working in ?green? jobs.

Data Equals
An expansive vision for data equality that goes beyond algorithmic fairness. When we gave algorithms power over our world, we hoped that the apparent neutrality of machine thinking would create a more egalitarian age. Yet we are more divided than ever, staring down threats to democracy itself. In Data Equals, Colin Koopman argues that data technologies fail us so often because we built them around a deficient notion of equality. It is not enough, Koopman explains, that algorithms engage everyone’s data with the same measuring stick. The data themselves are all too often structured in ways that obscure and exacerbate stratifying distinctions. Koopman contends that we must also work to ensure that those people subject to computational assessment enter data systems on equal terms. Part philosophical argument, part practical guide (replete with case studies from education technology), Data Equals offers novel methods for realizing democratic equality in a digital age.
Reconnected Parenting
This book takes parents from feeling disconnected to reconnecting with their true, authentic center, so they can be free to respond the way they really want to and create a life of ease, consciousness, and enjoyment in their family life. Many people who come to The Reconnected—both a program and a parenting community—are self-aware, know a lot about parenting, and already have a lot of tools in their toolbox. They know their triggers and when they are triggered; they know about regulation; and they even have lists of scripts and are knowledgeable about what experts think they should do and say in those moments. But . . . They find that when it comes down to it, in the moment of stress, they can’t seem to actually make a difference in the way they respond. Reconnected Parenting is a guide to help parents do better in the moments that count, and it shows the reader how understanding the nervous system and using our breath to rewire our reactions from our body up, creates deep, lasting change. The reader will be taken on a journey through the science behind the nervous system and how this is holistically linked to connecting to our truest and spiritual selves.
Somebody Should Do Something
A novel and scientific approach to creating transformative social change?and the surprising ways that each of us can help make a real difference.Changing the world is difficult. One reason is that the most important problems, like climate change, racism, and poverty, are structural. They emerge from our collective practices: laws, economies, history, culture, norms, and built environments. The dilemma is that there is no way to make structural change without individual people making different?more structure-facing?decisions. In Somebody Should Do Something, Michael Brownstein, Alex Madva, and Daniel Kelly show us how we can connect our personal choices to structural change and why individual choices matter, though not in the way people usually think.The authors paint a new picture of how social change happens, arguing that our most powerful personal choices are those that springboard us into working together with others. Taking inspiration from the writer Bill McKibben, they stress how one ?important thing an individual can do is be somewhat less of an individual.?Organized into three main sections, the book first diagnoses the problem of ?either/or? thinking about social change, which stems from the false choice of making better personal choices or changing the system. Then it offers a different way to think about social change, anchored in a new picture of human nature emerging across the social sciences. Finally, the authors explore ways of putting this picture into practice. Neither a how-to manual nor an activist?s guide, Somebody Should Do Something pairs stories and science (plus some jokes) to help readers recognize their own power, turning resignation about climate change and racial injustice into actions that transform the world.
Reading Christian Apocrypha
Christian apocrypha has suffered neglect. Living just outside the Christian canon, apocryphal Christian works have been judged deficient, secret, and even heretical. In Reading Christian Apocrypha, Tobias Nicklas and Janet Spittler lavish attention upon these extracanonical texts to demonstrate that, far from being superfluous or fringe, Christian apocrypha plays a crucial role in the history of Christianity.Apocryphal works function as important witnesses for the reception of Jesus, Paul, and other apostolic figures. Beyond the reception of canonical figures, however, they provide foundational stories that fill in the Christian landscape of memories, supplying local and regional Christian communities with narratives that tie their own environment, traditions, and practices to the activities of the apostles and apostolic figures. Reading Christian Apocrypha also explores how apocryphal works adopt and adapt Jewish and Greco-Roman views on the origin of the world, its history, and the world to come, creating new "spaces of interpretation" around biblical texts and traditions.The apocryphal writings reveal that Christianity, from the very beginning, developed a wide variety of theological perspectives within diverse linguistic traditions and geographical areas. Ultimately, Reading Christian Apocrypha demonstrates that the distinction between "canonical" and "apocryphal" tradition is far blurrier than often assumed.

How Progress Ends
Shortlisted for the Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the Year Award
How 1,000 years of global history show why technological and economic progress is often followed by stagnation and even collapse
In How Progress Ends, Carl Benedikt Frey challenges the conventional belief that economic and technological progress is inevitable. For most of human history, stagnation was the norm, and even today progress and prosperity in the world's largest, most advanced economies-the United States and China-have fallen short of expectations. To appreciate why we cannot depend on any AI-fueled great leap forward, Frey offers a remarkable and fascinating journey across the globe, spanning the past 1,000 years, to explain why some societies flourish and others fail in the wake of rapid technological change.
By examining key historical moments-from the rise of the steam engine to the dawn of AI-Frey shows why technological shifts have shaped, and sometimes destabilized, entire civilizations. He explores why some leading technological powers of the past-such as Song China, the Dutch Republic, and Victorian Britain-ultimately lost their innovative edge, why some modern nations such as Japan had periods of rapid growth followed by stagnation, and why planned economies like the Soviet Union collapsed after brief surges of progress. Frey uncovers a recurring tension in history: while decentralization fosters the exploration of new technologies, bureaucracy is crucial for scaling them. When institutions fail to adapt to technological change, stagnation inevitably follows. Only by carefully balancing decentralization and bureaucracy can nations innovate and grow over the long term-findings that have worrying implications for the United States, Europe, China, and other economies today.
Through a rich narrative that weaves together history, economics, and technology, How Progress Ends reveals that managing the future requires us to draw the right lessons from the past.

Eclipsing the West
As the international order begins to crumble, this incisive book asks what the rise of the Asian superstates means for the future. The Western-dominated world we have known for the past three hundred years is coming to an end. As America withdraws from its role as enforcer of the international order, other countries are moving in to fill the void. Among them are two rising Asian ‘superstates’. Accounting for more than a third of the world’s population, China and India have the potential to wield enormous economic and political power. China is already vying with the US for the top spot in the global economy, and on some measures has surpassed it. By the middle of the century India may be number two. How will these countries navigate their growing roles on the world stage? What are the implications for commerce, international law and the fight against climate change? Vince Cable has followed China and India for decades, first as a professional economist and later as a senior government minister. In Eclipsing the West he draws on the latest data and a lifetime of political and economic experience to offer a compelling account of what the rise of the Asian superstates means for the future. -- .
The Fearful Mind
Fear is a universal emotion and is typically depicted as a despicable one. While fear is regarded as nature?s imperfect wisdom, often undesirable, and a sign of weakness, its role in maintaining human life is overlooked. In the middle of ubiquitous repulsion against fear, there is minuscule literature on the beneficial effects of fear and the consequences of fearlessness. Recent research has thrown light into the unconscious processing of fear. In sharp contrast to the existing literature, this book argues that fear, overriding all other emotions, operates relentlessly in the unconscious mind as a motivating force and renders life compatible with survival. Fear appeals can bring healthy behavioral changes; the stronger the appeal, the more persuasive it is. Moderate anxiety can improve performance that involves dominant responses. Social anxiety is regarded as the root cause of conscientiousness. This hypothesis is supported by the latest research that reveals impaired fear processing in patients with psychopathy, a condition that is associated with crimes. This book expands the concept of eustress, a positive reaction to stress, and describes the beneficial aspects of fear. The book gives a twist to the conventional view of fear as an unwanted emotion and draws a new hypothesis that fear is the primary emotion and a constant psychological operative, a lack of which poses dangerous consequences.

Man Up
The revelatory and urgent story of how an explosion of misogyny is driving a surge of mass and far-right violence throughout the West—from an internationally recognized extremism expert and media commentatorWhat two things do most mass shooters, terrorists, or violent extremists have in common? Most of us know the first: they are almost always men or boys. But the second? They are almost always virulent misogynists, homophobes, or transphobes—even if they are also motivated by racism, antisemitism, or xenophobia. The antigovernment militiamen charged with plotting to kidnap and execute Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer used language saturated with misogyny, with one telling an FBI informant, “Just grab the bitch.” The men who killed scores at Virginia Tech, the Pulse nightclub, and a Maryland newsroom all had prior reports of stalking, domestic violence, or harassment of women. And in dozens of other incidents—from North America to Norway to New Zealand—an increasing number of misogynist incel (involuntary celibate) and male supremacist attackers have explicitly targeted and killed women, blaming feminism or sexual frustration with women as motivation for their attacks. Yet, despite all evidence, the bright red thread of misogyny running through these attacks is barely acknowledged by the media or even experts—and this failing leaves us powerless to stop the violence. In Man Up, Cynthia Miller-Idriss, a leading expert on extremism, addresses this crucial oversight head-on, revealing how an epidemic of misogyny—both online and off—and a patriarchal backlash are driving an exponential rise in mass and far-right violence. She also offers essential strategies that all of us—including parents, teachers, and counselors—can use to fight the rising tide of violence, beginning with recognizing the misogyny that pervades our everyday lives.
Polarization and International Politics
How extreme polarization undermines the advantages that democracies have when formulating foreign policyPolarization is a defining feature of politics in the United States and many other democracies. Yet although there is much research focusing on the effects of polarization on domestic politics, little is known about how polarization influences international cooperation and conflict. Democracies are thought to have advantages over nondemocratic nations in international relations, including the ability to keep foreign policy stable across time, credibly signal information to adversaries, and maintain commitments to allies. Does domestic polarization affect these “democratic advantages”? In this timely book, Rachel Myrick argues that polarization reshapes the nature of constraints on democratic leaders, which in turn erodes the advantages democracies have in foreign affairs. Drawing on a range of evidence, including cross-national analyses, observational and experimental public opinion research, descriptive data on the behavior of politicians, and interviews with policymakers, Myrick develops metrics that explain the effect of extreme polarization on international politics and traces the pathways by which polarization undermines each of the democratic advantages. Turning to the case of contemporary US foreign policy, Myrick shows that as its political leaders become less responsive to the public and less accountable to political opposition, the United States loses both reliability as an ally and credibility as an adversary. Myrick’s account links the effects of polarization on democratic governance to theories of international relations, integrating work across the fields of international relations, comparative politics, and American politics to explore how patterns of domestic polarization shape the international system.
