In the early 1960s, the head of a prominent New York City Child Development Center and a psychiatrist from Columbia University launched a study designed to track the development of twins and triplets given up for adoption and raised by different families. The controversial and disturbing catch? None of the adoptive parents had been told that they were raising a twin - the study's investigators insisted that the separation be kept secret. 

Ein interaktives Hörbuch, das uns zeigt, wie wir mit zwischenmenschlichen Konflikten besser umgehen können.Wie können wir eine Meinungsverschiedenheit klären, wenn wir dieser mit Angst und einer gewissen Abwehrhaltungen entgegenblicken, weil sie mit Bewertungen einhergeht? Laut Rosenberg ist Empathie der Schlüssel. Auf einer empathischen und ehrlichen Grundlage sind wir in der Lage, Konflikte als eine Chance zu nutzen, um aus diesen etwas für sich mitzunehmen und voneinander zu lernen.

BFF? will take a close look at society's most underappreciated relationship to interrogate what modern friendship means, how it can survive, why we need it and what we can do to get the most from it. Featuring interviews with brilliant women on what friendship means to them, Claire Cohen argues that, unlike romantic relationships, friendship is much harder to pin down and quantify—and shows how often our friendships are taken for granted.

Gustave Le Bon - "Psychologie des foules". Psychologie des foules est un livre de Gustave Le Bon paru en 1895. Il s'agit d'un ouvrage de référence concernant la psychologie sociale, dont les théories sont encore discutées aujourd'hui. Ce livre marqua un tournant dans la carrière du "célèbre docteur". Gustave Le Bon montre dans cet ouvrage que le comportement d'individus réunis n'est pas le même que lorsque les individus raisonnent de manière isolée - il explique ainsi les comportements irraisonnés des foules.

Der Code des Bösen. Es entlädt sich in spektakulären Verbrechen, abscheulichen Gräueltaten, Gewalt, Sadismus, Vergewaltigung, Schul-Amokläufen oder sogenannten "Familientragödien". Doch wie entsteht das Böse? Und: Existiert es in jedem von uns? Der Gerichtspsychiater Reinhard Haller hat sich auf die Suche nach den Wurzeln des Bösen begeben. Tausende Stunden saß er im Gefängnis Schwerstverbrechern gegenüber, nur mit Notizblock und Stift bewaffnet: Sexualmörder und Serienkiller, Terroristen, Räuber und Kinderschänder, alte NS-Verbrecher und junge Amokläufer.

Mehr denn je sind wir damit beschäftigt, das Limit des Zumutbaren neu zu justieren. Wo liegt die Grenze des Sagbaren? Ab wann ist eine Berührung eine Belästigung? Svenja Flaßpöhler tritt einen Schritt zurück und beleuchtet den Glutkern des Konflikts: die zunehmende Sensibilisierung des Selbst und der Gesellschaft. "Sensibel" ist ein hochaktuelles, philosophisches und gleichzeitig unterhaltsames Hörbuch, das die Sensibilität dialektisch durchleuchtet und zu dem Schluss kommt: Die Resilienz ist die Schwester der Sensibilität. Die Zukunft meistern können sie nur gemeinsam.

Ambition is a dominant force in for human civilization, driving its greatest achievements and most horrific abuses. Our striving has brought art, airplanes, and antibiotics, as well as wars, genocide, and despotism. This mixed record raises obvious concerns about how we can channel ambition in the most productive directions.

Do you find it hard to talk to your sibling? The relationships we have with our siblings are more important than we often realise. How you were with your siblings is very important to how you are in the world. Therapy often focuses on romantic relationships or parent and child relationships but rarely does it consider brothers and sisters, and yet the sibling relationship is often the blueprint for how a person interacts with others throughout their lifetime.

We take the seven-day week for granted, rarely asking what anchors it or what it does to us. Yet weeks are not dictated by the natural order. They are, in fact, an artificial construction of the modern world. With meticulous archival research that draws on a wide array of sources - including newspapers, restaurant menus, theater schedules, marriage records, school curricula, folklore, housekeeping guides, courtroom testimony, and diaries - David Henkin reveals how our current devotion to weekly rhythms emerged in the United States during the first half of the 19th century.

Out in Time explores the life experiences of three generations of gay men - the Stonewall, AIDS, and Queer generations - arguing that while there are generational differences in the lived experiences of young gay men, each one confronts its own unique historical events, realities, and socio-political conditions, there are consistencies across time that define and unify the identity formation of gay men.

Even before everything was disrupted by COVID-19 (not to mention by Trump), millions of Americans were already questioning capitalism’s “values”. We were already challenging the idea that your job defines you. We already knew something was wrong. Loneliness, frustration, and alienation were already on the rise. Even the most successful of us felt too busy, too preoccupied, and too distracted to enjoy what we intuitively know are life’s greatest rewards: vibrant relationships, family life, connection to others, involvement in our community, and the thrilling experience of love.

Social psychologist Peter T. Coleman explores how conflict resolution and complexity science provide guidance for dealing with seemingly intractable political differences. Deploying the concept of attractors in dynamical systems, he explains why we are stuck in this rut as well as the unexpected ways that deeply rooted oppositions can and do change.

Você, ser racional, já se pegou acreditando em superstições ou qualquer coisa sem nenhuma evidência científica? Pois é, isso é muito mais comum do que se imagina, pois somos máquinas de crenças, que, antes de analisar criticamente, acreditamos ou desacreditamos de forma automática e só mais tarde procuramos raciocinar sobre a questão. E como combater essa tendência e não passar vexame espalhando fake news por aí?

Stepping back from the world has always been part of human life. We're social animals but sometimes we want to be alone. That impulse is as old as civilisation but has never been more urgent. Today, mindfulness and meditation are everywhere, and wellness tourism is booming. Whether it's a yoga break, an app or something more like boot camp, retreat is a feature of our lives now. 

Il existe de grandes différences entre les hommes et les femmes dans la façon d'être surdoué et de vivre cet état. Les femmes à haut potentiel ne répondent pas de la même manière que les hommes aux contraintes d'une société dans laquelle les schémas de réussite sont encore imprégnés de sexisme. Le défi est double pour elles : dans un monde fondé sur l'image d'une femme au corps parfait et non d'une femme dotée d'un cerveau, il leur faut réussir à articuler leur féminité et leur intelligence et se faire accepter.
