From Crowd Psychology to the Dynamics of Large Groups

Historical, Theoretical and Practical Considerations

By: Carla Penna

From Crowd Psychology to the Dynamics of Large Groups offers transdisciplinary research on the history of the study of social formations, ranging from nineteenth-century crowd psychology in France and twentieth-century Freudian mass psychology, including the developments in critical theory, to the study of the psychodynamics of contemporary large groups. Carla Penna presents a unique combination of sociology, psychoanalysis, and group analysis in the study of social formations. This book revisits the epistemological basis of group analysis by introducing and discussing its historical path, especially in connection with the study of large groups and investigations of the social unconscious in persons, groups, and societies. It also explores early work on group relations and contemporary research on the basic-assumption group in England, particularly Hopper’s theory of Incohesion as a fourth basic assumption. From Crowd Psychology to the Dynamics of Large Groups enables the reader to map out the field of the unconscious life of crowds illuminating the darkness of twenty-first century collective movements. The reflections in this book present new perspectives for psychologists, psychoanalysts, group analysts, sociologists, and historians to investigate the psychodynamics of contemporary crowds, masses, and social systems.

UNA FIDANZATA SU MISURA

By: Carla Tommasone

Che c'è di più importante che costruirsi un impero, investendo le proprie energie? Pazienza se poi la vitalità investita nel perseguimento del proprio obiettivo, lascerà un nullo margine per altre risorse e l'aridità più completa governerà la vita di Stefano. Tuttavia la madre non ci sta. La donna, la cui vita si è evoluta nell'amore, non può permettere che il suo unico, amato figlio, rinunci a ciò che di essenziale per la propria completezza esiste a questo mondo; l'amore. E quando porrà il suo incontestabile ultimatum, Stefano dovrà decidere se assecondare la sua iniziativa o interrompere ogni contatto con lei, privandosi dell'unica forma d'amore a lui conosciuta. La scelta sarà ardua, l'inevitabile resa, difficile da accettare, e Stefano opporrà la propria ferrea ostinazione per non essere trascinato nel vortice, fino allo scontato epilogo. Un romanzo frizzante come pregiato champagne, energico e divertente, che cattura il lettore con la disinvolta, moderna appagante e godevole, orditura descrittiva.

The Food and Wine Lover's Companion to Tuscany

By: Carla Capalbo

The Food and Wine Lovers Companion to Tuscany, originally published in 1996, was one of the first guidebooks to focus exclusively on the traditional foods and local wines of this region-the most traveled-to area of Italy. This essential guide, now completely revised and incorporating over 40 new entries, is still the only book anyone needs to find the little-known shops, markets, festivals, and wineries that capture the spirit of Tuscany. Author Carla Capalbo, who makes her home in the region, passes on her extensive knowledge of Tuscan foods and wine, exploring each town, village, and quaint back road. No one considering a trip to Tuscany should leave home without this book.

The Many Faces of George Washington

Remaking a Presidential Icon

By: Carla Killough McClafferty

No picture accurately resembled him in the minute traits of his person . . . there was an expression of his face that no painter had succeeded in taking."—London's New Monthly Magazine in 1790 George Washington's face has been painted, printed, and engraved more than a billion times since his birth in 1732. And yet even in his lifetime, no picture seemed to capture the likeness of the man who is now the most iconic of all our presidents. Worse still, people today often see this founding father as the "old and grumpy" Washington on the dollar bill. In 2005 a team of historians, scientists, and artisans at Mount Vernon set out to change the image of our first president. They studied paintings and sculptures, pored over Washington's letters to his tailors and noted other people’s comments about his appearance, even closely examined the many sets of dentures that had been created for Washington. Researchers tapped into skills as diverse as 18th-century leatherworking and cutting-edge computer programming to assemble truer likenesses. Their painstaking research and exacting processes helped create three full-body representations of Washington as he was at key moments in his life. And all along the way, the team gained new insight into a man who was anything but "old and grumpy." Join award-winning author Carla Killough McClafferty as she unveils the statues of the three Georges and rediscovers the man who became the face of a new nation.

The Church in the Wilderness

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Church in the Wilderness

Paul's Use of Exodus Traditions in 1 Corinthians

By: Carla Swafford Works

Much attention has been devoted to Paul's quotations from the Old Testament, but little attention has been given to Paul's use of biblical narratives. The most extensive use of scripture in 1 Corinthians involves an allusion to Israel's exodus (10:1-22), which contains only one quotation (1 Cor 10:7). Since there is much debate on how to identify scriptural allusions, Carla Works examines two passages where there is overwhelming scholarly consensus regarding the presence of exodus imagery: 1 Corinthians 5:6-8 and 10:1-22. These passages, therefore, provide an ideal place to consider how Paul is using Israel's exodus traditions to instruct a predominantly non-Jewish congregation. The author argues that the exodus tradition, a tradition used to bolster Israel's identity and to teach Israel about the identity of God, is reinterpreted by Paul in light of Christ and is employed to foster the identity formation of the Corinthians as the church of "one God and one Lord" (1 Cor 8:6).

Zora Neale Hurston

A Life in Letters

By: Carla Kaplan, Ph.D.

“ I mean to live and die by my own mind,” Zora Neale Hurston told the writer Countee Cullen. Arriving in Harlem in 1925 with little more than a dollar to her name, Hurston rose to become one of the central figures of the Harlem Renaissance, only to die in obscurity. Not until the 1970s was she rediscovered by Alice Walker and other admirers. Although Hurston has entered the pantheon as one of the most influential American writers of the 20th century, the true nature of her personality has proven elusive. Now, a brilliant, complicated and utterly arresting woman emerges from this landmark book. Carla Kaplan, a noted Hurston scholar, has found hundreds of revealing, previously unpublished letters for this definitive collection; she also provides extensive and illuminating commentary on Hurston’s life and work, as well as an annotated glossary of the organizations and personalities that were important to it. From her enrollment at Baltimore’s Morgan Academy in 1917, to correspondence with Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Langston Hughes, Dorothy West and Alain Locke, to a final query letter to her publishers in 1959, Hurston’s spirited correspondence offers an invaluable portrait of a remarkable, irrepressible talent.

The Human Change Management Body of Knowledge (HCMBOK®)

By: Vicente Goncalves,Carla Campos

I am happy to recommend this work. I believe in the principles presented in it and identify with its context. Due to the lack of knowledge on the subject in the market, it is a topic that must be made known. The book should be in the library of all project and change managers."— Paul Dinsmore, PMI Fellow "Every manager should integrate HCMBOK® practices into their project management methodology in order to fully develop their work. This book addresses a simple and practical way that the critical component in organizational change management can be applied to projects of all kinds: the human factor."— Bruno Machado, Director, Project Management Office, Grupo Anima Educação "We live in a time of change, speed, and an avalanche of information. It is still very difficult for most companies to change their organizational culture efficiently. This book makes us reflect upon the crucial element in any change, and which most managers do not place in the foreground—the people." — Joyce Meyer, CEO, iDigo "In today's constantly changing world, the Project Manager must have sensitivity to how people react to change. Knowing a method that provides a structured way to take care of the human aspect is a key factor in the success of any project! HCMBOK® offers a simple and practical approach to managing change, which can be easily incorporated into the project management routine, providing amazing results."— Pedro Augusto Cardoso da Silva, Engineering Director, METRÔRIO This reference starts by presenting the concept of change management, its players, strategies, and applicable models. In the second part, the book covers the set of good practices, methodology, and tools known as the HCMBOK®— Human Change Management Body of Knowledge. The third part introduces the concept of the Change Management Office (CMO) and its relation to the strategic planning of an organization. The book concludes with the competencies essential for a change manager, an approach to agile methodologies, and a model for managing cultural change.

ONDEGGIANDO NEL VENTO DELLA VITA

By: Carla Tommasone

Max è abituato a contare solo su se stesso, sulla sua ferrea volontà e vive in solitudine la sua esistenza turbolenta. Ma poi Linda scopre che l'uomo che sembra incapace di solidarietà e di amore è dotato invece di un cuore generoso e sensibile. Sarà perciò arduo individuare il varco per accedere al suo cuore così ben protetto, difficoltoso costringere l'uomo ad accettare la sua vulnerabilità, problematico trovare un punto d'incontro. Ma anche il più forte e ostinato degli uomini è costretto ad arrendersi se travolto dall'Amore e Max che ha sempre affrontato le sfide a testa alta, non negherà a se stesso la possibilità di essere felice. Un romanzo d'amore denso di passione, quella che anima i protagonisti di questa storia e che contraddistingue lo stile dell'autrice. I personaggi pongono a nudo loro stessi pagina dopo pagina, mostrando le loro vulnerabilità, i loro timori e i sentimenti più intensi e profondi, la cui carica apporterà loro la forza necessaria a superare ogni ostacolo.

I VOLI DEI SOGNI

By: CARLA TOMMASONE

I VOLI DEI SOGNI Il tempo nelle giornate di Sissy e scandito dalla composizione di decine e decine di novelle nelle quali descrive sempre se stessa, immaginando l'incontro magico con l'uomo della sua vita, descrivendolo ripetutamente per provare un attimo di fremente emozione, quella che manca nel suo matrimonio. E poi d'improvviso si avvede che l'uomo che cerca e proprio la al suo fianco, sebbene stia per dirigersi altrove, perche anch'egli cerca la passione, la soddisfazione, la gioia, emozioni forti che lo rendano vivo e consapevole di cio che desidera per ritenersi appagato. E la disperazione dell'uomo rendera Sissy dolorosamente cosciente, il grido silenzioso di aiuto del marito la indurra a comprendere se stessa e i suoi desideri. Finalmente conscia del suo profondo amore e della gelosia che la dilania, capira di essersi concentrata su vacui sogni, inutili illusioni, ignorando la realta e rischiando di perdere colui che ha infine compreso di amare.

Primo volume della trilogia. Il diario di un uomo dalle passioni profonde e tormentose nelle cui pagine, il figlio scoprirà un segreto devastante che condizionerà la sua vita, inducendolo a ritenersi inadeguato a guadagnarsi l'amore di chiunque gli stia al fianco, a credere di essere un fallito incapace di realizzare progetti grandiosi. Quella verità così dolorosa lo costringerà a percorrere l'inesorabile cammino verso la devastazione di tutto ciò che costruirà, a cominciare dal matrimonio con l'amata Rebecca per finire all'impero di famiglia, fino al temuto epilogo di quel maledetto diario che ha condizionato per oltre un decennio ogni sua scelta. Un romanzo avvincente, intenso, crudo e commovente, dalla forza descrittiva impetuosa e travolgente. L'autrice ripercorrerà i ricordi di una vita per descrivere l'uomo e le sue scelte fatali, tuttavia la luce risplende sovrana in fondo al buio tunnel che Stefano dovrà percorrere per ritrovare se stesso e la sola donna che abbia sempre profondamente amato.
