Our Ways of Coping in Everyday Life

By: Fred Emil Katz

Our Quest for Effective Living

How We Cope in Social Space : A Window To A New Science

By: Emil Katz Fred Emil Katz,Fred Emil Katz

The book gives new illumination to many facets of life -- from human sexuality to the appeal of false messiahs, from stage fright among even the most accomplished performers to suicide among successful writers, from enjoyment of opera to "morally" justifying murderous deeds. It does all of these, and much more, by clarifying four dimensions of social space in which we humans exist. The sequel to this book is WE LIVE IN SOCIAL SPACE, also published by AuthorHouse.

We Live in Social Space

A Window to a New Science

By: Fred Emil Katz

This is how the book starts: “Does the fetus know it is in its mother’s womb? Probably not. Certainly not in any conscious way. Yet it is there, in the womb, asserting its existence. In that prepartum existence, the fetus is coping on its path to becoming a viable human being. “Do we, postpartum humans, know that we live in some sort of external womb? Probably not. Yet we do live in the confines of an external womb. I’ll call it social space. We may not be aware of it, but we live in, and through, and by the actions of social space.” The book examines four attributes of that Social Space. They give new illumination to many facets of our life—from our sexuality to willingness to believe in false messiahs, from stage fright among even the most accomplished performers to our enjoyment of opera.

Ordinary People and Extraordinary Evil

A Report on the Beguilings of Evil

By: Fred Emil Katz

What is it in the behavioral makeup of ordinary people, operating in the course of ordinary daily living, that lends itself to participating in horrendous activities — and doing so at times with zeal, at times with joy, at times without duress? Katz demonstrates that we do not need any special behavioral equipment for doing evil. The very same behaviors can take us in both directions for either living humanely and decently or for doing evil. This book demonstrates how some of these processes work, and sensitizes us to the potential for evil in our ongoing daily activities. This knowledge about ordinary behavior can empower us to take charge of our own direction, and help us turn away from beguilings of evil when they come our way.
