Storms in Her Head

By: Muriel Dimen

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

A century after it was written, Breuer and Freudís Studies on Hysteria continues to challenge. In Storms in Her Head, many of todayís most renowned psychoanalysts and cultural theorists revisit the cases it contains, reflecting on how six suffering women continue to engage us with problems of theory and practice. Each author offers a major contribution to current psychoanalytic thinking about culture and its influence on the mind, the body and clinical process. Storms in Her Head offers an eclectic and lively set of opinions on Freud, his hysterical patients, and the psychoanalytic journey they began together.

Piaget's Logic

By: Muriel Seltman

The literature relating to the work of Piaget is large and still growing. Some of it is Piagetian; some of it is critical. Most of this has been directed towards his experimental methodology and the conclusions drawn from it. The justification for the present contribution lies in what the authors believe to be the special embodiment in Piagetian thought of a central theme of our time. This theme is that the only possibility of truth lies in measurability and that knowledge is not recognisable unless it satisfies this criterion. This work is concentrated in the first instance on Piaget's claims that mental structures are exclusively logical mathematical in form, especially since this part of his work has received least attention. This book was first published in 1985.

Heal Your Aura

Finding True Love by Generating a Positive Personal Energy Field

By: Muriel MacFarlane,MacFarlane

Here's a new solution for the disillusionment and disappointment of relationships repeatedly gone bad. Those who have "tried everything" to make such relationships work will want to read this book. None of the usual changes -- losing weight, exercising, and even extensive (and expensive) therapy -- make any difference, because none of them serve to change the human aura, the vibrations from the electromagnetic energy field that surrounds everyone. A person's aura is like a psychic X ray that continuously projects the real person to the outside world. It doesn't lie, it can't be disguised, and it can attract the wrong people. Heal Your Aura combines the New Age concept of auras and energy fields with a guide to practical tasks and exercises that help readers alter the vibrations of their energy fields. When electromagnetic energy fields are healed, the aura is changed too, and this can transform the way one lives and can encourage finding -- and keeping -- true love. Heal Your Aura will help readers stop attracting liars and cheats and begin attracting solid, warm-hearted friends.

3-D Displays for Libraries, Schools and Media Centers

By: Earlene Green Evans,Muriel Miller Branch

Librarians, teachers, and media specialists always need new ways to engage students in learning. Here are 19 theme-based, three-dimensional bulletin board designs to inspire and direct learning in fifth through ninth grades. The boards are grouped into five subject areas, and each board and its activities can either be used alone or as part of a series. For example, the "Flight" section features eye-catching and educational boards spotlighting outer space, the Tuskegee Airmen, hot air balloons, and NASA. More than just decoration, each board is the centerpiece of a focused effort involving numerous learning activities across the curriculum. This work illustrates each board and gives detailed construction steps, suggestions for books and other items to include in the board's area, and several activity sheets that direct students to read, write, explore, and create as part of an engaging experience that attracts even the resistant learner. With these exciting ideas, library staff and teachers will find it easy to use these plans, or find inspiration for their own.

The First Compendium of Social Network Research Focusing on Children and Young Adult

Social Networks of Children, Adolescents, and College Students

By: Suzanne Salzinger,John Antrobus,Muriel Hammer

Research on adult personal-social networks has contributed greatly to an understanding of mental health, illness, and responses to stress. Fueled by this successful research and a growing concern for today's youth, the contributors to this volume have conducted investigations into the functioning and structures of the social networks of toddlers, school-age children, adolescents, and college students. The editors of this volume move beyond vague generalizations about characteristic and behavior acquisition through socialization in childhood by applying a longitudinal perspective to the sampling of child, adolescent, and young-adult network research. Social Networks of Children, Adolescents, and College Students unites several major empirical studies of children's social networks, investigating the acquisition of specific behaviors from particular groups of individuals under certain conditions. Topics covered include: * the effects of social networks on child development and disorder * the relationship between social networks and coping with stress the role of friends or groups in positive socialization * Of special interest to practitioners, researchers, and advanced students are: * comparative data on children from other cultural groups and non-mainstream American youths descriptions and evaluations of methodologies * introductory materials by the editors commenting on the field and the research extensive bibliographies

Young Sun, Early Earth and the Origins of Life

Lessons for Astrobiology

By: Muriel Gargaud,Hervé Martin,Purificación López-García,Thierry Montmerle,Robert Pascal

- How did the Sun come into existence? - How was the Earth formed? - How long has Earth been the way it is now, with its combination of oceans and continents? - How do you define “life”? - How did the first life forms emerge? - What conditions made it possible for living things to evolve? All these questions are answered in this colourful textbook addressing undergraduate students in "Origins of Life" courses and the scientifically interested public. The authors take the reader on an amazing voyage through time, beginning five thousand million years ago in a cloud of interstellar dust and ending five hundred million years ago, when the living world that we see today was finally formed. A chapter on exoplanets provides an overview of the search for planets outside the solar system, especially for habitable ones. The appendix closes the book with a glossary, a bibliography of further readings and a summary of the Origins of the Earth and life in fourteen boxes.

Becoming Anorexic

A sociological study

By: Muriel Darmon

Anorexia tends to be studied within health disciplines, such as medicine, psychoanalysis or psychology. When the condition is discussed in relation to society more broadly, focus is commonly restricted to considerations about the demise of the traditional family meal or the all-pervading obsession with thinness and media representations of ‘size zero’ models. But what can sociology tell us about anorexia and how a person becomes anorexic? This book draws on empirical research – both interviews and observation – conducted in and outside medical settings with anorexic girls, medical staff, teachers and other teenagers of the same age. As such, it offers the first fully sociological treatment of the condition, taking the reader closer to the actual experiences of people living with anorexia. It retraces the behaviours, practices and processes that create what is patterned as an anorexic ‘career’ and reveals the cultural and social characteristics of the people who engage on this path taking them from a simple diet to hospitalization or recovery. Richly illustrated with qualitative research, Becoming Anorexic: A Sociological Approach demonstrates that anorexia can be viewed as a very particular work of self-transformation, which requires specific – and social – ‘dispositions’. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology and anthropology with an interest in health and illness, the body, social class and gender.
