'Laughlin è stato editore, in America un vero editore di qualità. Oculato nell'amministrazione del proprio patrimonio, che gli veniva da una famiglia di industriali dell'acciaio di Pittsburgh, seppe impegnarlo in iniziative che lo appassionavano, i libri appunto e lo sci. Conta in lui, oggi, la poesia che ha lasciato, colloquiale, nervosa, sapiente nei sentimenti, l'amore, il sesso, l'amicizia, ma anche nell'osservazione corsiva della vita, sia quella famigliare, sia quella politica. Poté scrivere con tranquillità: «Provo un certo orgoglio / per il fatto che nei miei versi / non è difficilissimo vedere / quello che sto cercando di dire». Infatti Laughlin è un poeta disobbediente ai canoni della modernità oracolare. Pound, ha scritto, gli insegnò, con una matita appuntita come un bisturi, a togliere via da un verso le parole inutili; e se da lui imparò anche cose tutt'altro che trascurabili, fu di tenersi ai classici latini, a Orazio, a Catullo. Ne è stato il puro allievo al secolo passato.' (Enzo Siciliano)

Discover today the ultimate prescription from the Great Physician. Many of the diseases sending us to doctors’ offices, surgical suites, and early graves are preventable—and we don’t need to be overmedicated to cure them. Using scientific evidence and commonsense explanations, The Ultimate Prescription strips back the misinformation about what makes us sick. It presents real-world stories of lives that have been changed, not by some powerful drug or impossibly expensive procedure, but by lifestyle choices made at home, at work, and at the grocery store. You won’t want to miss out on Dr. Marcum’s explanation of the biblical plan for physical and spiritual health, prescribed by the Great Physician Himself. If you can’t remember the last time you felt really energetic . . . if you’re tired of taking medications that don’t “fix” the problem . . . if you’re looking to beat stress and burnout the way God meant us to . . . then you're ready to discover the true source of healing for your mind, body, and spirit!

Questo volume offre una completa e aggiornata revisione della teoria dei sistemi motivazionali e si propone come testo di riferimento nel campo dell'analisi delle dimensioni del Sé nel contesto delle relazioni interpersonali. Secondo l'approccio qui presentato la teoria dei sistemi motivazionali integra regolazione fisiologica, attaccamento, esplorazione-assertività, avversività, piacere sensuale e sessuale, affiliazione e accudimento. Attingendo a casi reali, gli autori intendono così dimostrare le interazioni reciproche dei diversi sistemi motivazionali all'interno dell'individuo, oltre che indicare nuove prospettive di utilizzo clinico.

In quest'opera a quattro mani di due massimi protagonisti del nuovo corso preso dall'ermeneutica dopo la filosofia di Martin Heidegger e la teologia di Karl Barth nonché nell'esegesi d'ispirazione esistenzialistica di Rudolf Bultmann, viene ricostruita la storia della ricerca che nei primi decenni del Novecento ha radicalmente mutato lo scenario degli studi non soltanto biblici ma anche teologici in generale. Al centro della nuova prospettiva ermeneutica sta il linguaggio e la questione di come il Nuovo Testamento ponga e affronti il problema della parola. E qui sta la novità di quest'ottica di pensiero che nel Nuovo Testamento mette in luce come la questione del linguaggio faccia tutt'uno col problema dell'ascolto. Il Nuovo Testamento parla il linguaggio dell'ascolto, esso vuole condurre ad apprendere a distinguere rettamente tra l'ascoltare e il vedere, tra il dato della nostra percezione positiva e la realtà linguistica, e a cogliere come il nostro vedere, la nostra 'vita spirituale' debba sempre essere anche un ascolto, un ascolto della parola che conduce alla verità.

Il volume descrive gli effetti dei farmaci attraverso un'analisi integrata dei loro meccanismi di azione molecolare e cellulare con i processi fisiologici e fisiopatologici alla base della malattia. Il testo, giunto alla settima edizione, si è evoluto con continuità, in pieno accordo con il progredire delle conoscenze e delle tecniche che negli ultimi anni hanno avuto uno sviluppo considerevolmente importante.

James (psychology and management, Georgia Institute of Technology) and LeBreton (psychological sciences, Purdue U.) introduce psychology researchers and practitioners to an indirect measurement system for assessing the unconscious or implicit personality designed to address the limitations of existing measures and show how the information obtained complements information on explicit personality aspects that individuals are aware of. They review the strengths and limitations of several common measures of implicit personality; the necessary features of a new system; the rationale for their system, conditional reasoning, and how it is designed; how to capture biases in framing, reasoning, and analysis; how to build conditional reasoning problems to develop and validate tests; validation efforts for their test, especially their Conditional Reasoning Test for Aggression; and how to develop tests to measure traits such as depression, addiction proneness, and toxic leadership.

Il volume raccoglie per la prima volta le lettere più significative della corrispondenza tra i fondatori del pragmatismo, Charles S. Peirce e William James, le cui personalità intellettuali sono annoverate tra le più interessanti del pensiero occidentale. Coprendo un arco temporale di oltre trent'anni e toccando questioni che vanno dal significato e dall'utilità del pragmatismo fino alla fondazione della semiotica, alla natura della coscienza e alla metafisica, il carteggio rappresenta un importante punto di riferimento per la valutazione della nascita e dello sviluppo della filosofia americana tra la seconda metà dell'800 e la prima guerra mondiale, nonché per la ricostruzione dell'impatto della filosofia pragmatista sul pensiero contemporaneo.

Il matrimonio tra un medico americano ricchissimo e la figlia di una antica famiglia aristocratica inglese ormai priva di mezzi, col successivo trasferimento della coppia a New York, innesca uno scontro tra mentalità, cultura, usi e costumi di due popoli storicamente apparentati ma ancora così 'lontani'. Tema caro a Henry James, scrittore americano a sua volta 'emigrato' in Inghilterra, ma raramente trattato - come qui - con tanta tagliente ironia. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1884, 'Lady Barberina' è un romanzo che ha avuto in passato meno visibilità critica rispetto ad altre opere dell'autore, ma che attualmente i critici più attenti stanno riscoprendo. Un piccolo gioiello meno appariscente ma non per questo meno splendente delle opere maggiori di Henry James.

Drawing from God's self-revelation in Exodus 34, Hamilton moves through the Bible book by book, showing that there is one theological center to the whole Bible: God's glory in salvation through judgment.

Unlike coaching books that focus on performance problems, The Coaching Manager Second Edition, presents a developmental coaching methodology that managers can use to guide employees to achieve higher levels of skill, experience greater engagement with organizations, and promote personal development.

'The Coaching Manager is a timely and valuable resource for leaders interested in fostering a culture of coaching in contemporary organizations. Evidence-based strategies and real-world exemplars are provided for cultivating talent today and inspiring success for the future.'---Patricia A. Hickey, PhD, MBA, RN, FAAN, Vice President, Cardiovascular and Critical Care Services Children's Hospital Boston

'The second edition takes into account the new challenges and opportunities posed by an increasingly global workforce, new technology, and a persistent and rapid pace of change. The authors have, once again, provided an excellent handbook for any manager who wants to be an effective coach, and any individual who wants to leverage the potential of coaching in varied and commonly encountered situations at work.'---Kathy E. Kram, PhD, Shipley Professor in Management Boston University

How does a prison achieve institutional order while safeguarding prisoners' rights? Since the early 1960s, prison reform advocates have aggressively used the courts to extend rights and improve life for inmates, while prison administrators have been slow to alter the status quo. Litigated reform has been the most significant force in obtaining change.

An Appeal to Justice is a critical tudy of how the Texas Department of Corrections was transformed by Ruiz v. Estelle, the most sweeping class-action suit in correctional law history. Orders from federal judge William W. Justice rapidly moved the Texas system from one of the most autonomous, isolated, and paternalistic system to a more constitutional bureaucracy. In many respects the Texas experience is a microcosm of the transformation of American corrections over the past twenty-five years.

This is a careful account of TDC's fearful past as a plantation system, its tumultuous litigated reform, and its subsequent efforts to balance prisoner rights and prison order. Of major importance is the detailed examination of the broad stages of the reform process (and its costs and benefits) and an intimate look at prison brutality and humanity. The authors examine the terror tactics of the inmate guards, the development of prisoner gangs and widespread violence during the reforms, and the stability that eventually emerged. They also detail the change of the guard force from a relatively small, cohesive cadre dependent on discretion, personal loyalty, and physical dominance to a larger and more fragmented security staff controlled by formal procedures.

Drawing on years of research in archival sources and on hundreds of interviews with prisoners, administrators, and staff, An Appeal to Justice is a unique basis for assessing the course and consequences of prison litigation and will be valuable reading for legislators, lawyers, judges, prison administrators, and concerned citizens, as well as prison and public policy scholars.
