Download/Read Abuse of the Elderly: And the Political Connection Full Pages Free By Peter Bowden. In April of 2015, Peter Bowden blew the whistle on elder abuse. What followed was a two-year nightmare of personal attacks, career ruin, and the illegal disclosure by his employer, the Saskatoon Health region authority and Sask. Health of his private and confidential information. The government saw fit to become involved in what was a private matter between employee and employer. What followed was a government mired in controversy. Their sole purpose was to ruin the reputation of a compassionate care aide. Invited by Saskatchewan's Official Opposition Party, he made his way to the Legislature to share his experiences of elder care with the government. He was concerned by the caregiver to patient ratios, stating that, some nights, he was alone with thirty-four residents. Numerous times in his career, he witnessed the abuse of many residents, most of whom were completely dependent on

Download/Read Conditional Reasoning: The Unruly Syntactics, Semantics, Thematics, and Pragmatics of If Full Pages Free By Raymond Nickerson. Conditional reasoning is reasoning that involves statements of the sort If A (Antecedent) then C (Consequent). This type of reasoning is ubiquitous; everyone engages in it. Indeed, the ability to do so may be considered a defining human characteristic. Without this ability, human cognition would be greatly impoverished. "What-if" thinking could not occur. There would be no retrospective efforts to understand history by imagining how it could have taken a different course. Decisions that take possible contingencies into account could not be made; there could be no attempts to influence the future by selecting actions on the basis of their expected effects.Despite the commonness and importance of conditional reasoning and the considerable attention it has received from scholars, it remains the subject of much continuing debate. Unsettled

Download/Read Sexual Difference in Debate: Bodies, Desires, and Fictions Full Pages Free By Leticia Glocer Fiorini. The greater part of this book focuses on a critical analysis of the logics and ways of thinking supporting both explicit and implicit theories of sexual difference and the masculine/feminine pair. These theories may be private or collective; conscious, preconscious, or unconscious. They impact heavily on interpretations and constructions made in analytic practice, while they also affect transference-countertransference patterns. This conceptual analysis reviews the Freudian oeuvre as well as the work of other significant authors, post-Freudian and contemporary, that have contributed specifically to this topic. The concept of sexual difference contains a persistent problem: binary, dichotomous thinking and its blind spots and aporias. For this reason, the author has turned to other epistemologies that offer novel forms to think about the same problems, such as the paradig

Download/Read Self-Preservation at the Center of Personality: Superego and Ego Ideal in the Regulation of Safety Full Pages Free By Ralf-Peter Behrendt. The book discusses personality as a unified set of evolved and culturally developed structures that serves a single and definable purpose, to maintain the individual's safety, in the context of dyadic relationships, group processes and more abstract and fluid social configurations. The infant-mother relationship remains the blueprint for modes of relating to the social surround, at whatever level of complexity, and for approximating the sense of safety originally provided by the mother. The personality is organized around the need to maintain self-esteem, thereby preserving the individual's sense of safety and warding off deep-seated paranoid anxiety, which signals the potential of annihilation of the self. Paranoid anxiety is the counterpart of intraspecific aggression and the potential of the group as a whole to attack and a

Download/Read The Narrative Complexity of Ordinary Life: Tales from the Coffee Shop Full Pages Free By William Lowell Randall. Our everyday lives are enmeshed in storytelling: the stories we tell about our memories, the people we know, and the world we inhabit; those we tell about our families and communities; and the narratives we encounter in books, movies, and television.

Randall shows how concepts central to the study of narrative psychology--such as narrative development and the interrelation between narrative and identity, cognition, and development--are integral to everyday life. He makes the case that all people function as narrative psychologists by continually storying their lives in memory and imagination, as well as speculating on the stories that others may be living, a process that Randall refers to as storyotyping.Relying heavily on narrative, Ran

The HIV/AIDS epidemic in Africa has defined the childhoods of an entire generation.

Through ethnographic fieldwork and collaborative research with children in Uganda, Cheney traces how the ?best interest? principle that governs children?s? rights can stigmatize orphans and leave children in the post-anti

Download/Read The Late Sigmund Freud: Or, the Last Word on Psychoanalysis, Society, and All the Riddles of Life Full Pages Free By Todd Dufresne. Freud is best remembered for two applied works on society, The Future of an Illusion and Civilization and its Discontents. Yet the works of the final period are routinely denigrated as merely supplemental to the earlier, more fundamental 'discoveries' of the unconscious and dream interpretation. In fact, the 'cultural Freud' is sometimes considered an embarrassment to psychoanalysis. Dufresne argues that the late Freud, as brilliant as ever, was actually revealing the true meaning of his life's work. And so while The Future of an Illusion, Civilization and its Discontents, and his final work Moses and Monotheism may be embarrassing to some, they validate beliefs that Freud always held - including the psychobiology that provides the missing link between the individual psychology of the early period and the psychoanalysis o

Download/Read Dreaming in Dark Times: Six Exercises in Political Thought Full Pages Free By Sharon Sliwinski. What do dreams manage to say?or indeed, show?about human experience that is not legible otherwise? Can the disclosure of our dream-life be understood as a form of political avowal? To what does a dream attest? And to whom??Blending psychoanalytic theory with the work of such political thinkers as Hannah Arendt and Michel Foucault, Sharon Sliwinski explores how the disclosure of dream-life represents a special kind of communicative gesture?a form of unconscious thinking that can serve as a potent brand of political intervention and a means for resisting sovereign power. Each chapter centers on a specific dream plucked from the historical record, slowly unwinding the significance of this extraordinary disclosure. From Wilfred Owen and Lee Miller to Frantz Fanon and Nelson Mandela, Sliwinski shows how each of these figures grappled with dream-life as a means to conjure up the cou

In the final years of the twentieth century, ?migr?s from engineering and computer science devoted themselves to biology and resolved that if the aim of biology is to understand life, then making life would yield better theories than experimentation.

It has become routine to see in various health care magazines, e-mails to leaders, and executive discussions on social media internet outlets, a listing of the ten top challenges that CEOs believe they are facing in the health care industry today.
