Toleranz – was müssen wir aushalten? (#philosophieorientiert)
by Dominik BalgToleranz – eine Haltung, die in westlichen Gesellschaften wie kaum eine andere mit Nachdruck gefordert und mit Vehemenz verteidigt wird. Insbesondere eine tolerante Haltung gegenüber fremden Ansichten, Standpunkten und Überzeugungen wird von vielen als unverzichtbare Bedingung für das Gelingen eines demokratischen Miteinanders angesehen. Gleichzeitig wird kontrovers diskutiert, wo eigentlich die Grenzen einer toleranten Pluralität verschiedener Meinungen gezogen werden sollen. Welche Ansichten sind noch tolerabel, und welche nicht? Mit Blick auf aktuelle gesellschaftliche Diskurse und vor dem Hintergrund umfassender Kenntnisse der philosophischen Toleranzforschung überprüft Dominik Balg kontrovers diskutierte Minderheitenpositionen auf ihre Tolerierbarkeit und entwickelt vor diesem Hintergrund einen klaren Kriterienkatalog, mit Hilfe dessen sich die Grenzen einer toleranten Haltung sinnvoll ziehen lassen. Darüber hinaus widmet er sich der Frage, was eigentlich jenseits unserer Toleranzgrenzen liegen sollte und wie man verantwortungsvoll mit Positionen umgehen kann, die nicht mehr tolerabel sind.
Tolerating Strangers in Intolerant Times: Psychoanalytic, Political and Philosophical Perspectives
by Roger KennedyIn this interdisciplinary and wide-ranging study, Roger Kennedy looks at the roots of tolerance and intolerance as well as the role of the stranger and strangeness in provoking basic fears about our identity. He argues that a fear of a loss of attachment to one’s home might account for many prejudiced and intolerant attitudes to refugees and migrants; that basic fears about being displaced by so-called ‘strangers’ from our precious and precarious sense of a psychic home can tear communities apart, as well as lead to discrimination against those who appear to be different. Present day intolerance includes fears about the ‘hordes’ of immigrants confused with realistic fears about terrorist attacks, populist fears about loss of cultural integrity and with it a sense of powerlessness, and fearful debates about such basics as truth, including the so-called ‘post truth’ issue. Such fears, as explored in the book, mirror old arguments going back centuries to the early enlightenment thinkers and even before, when the parameters of discussion about tolerance were mainly around religious tolerance. There is urgency about addressing these kinds of issue once more at a time when the ‘ground rules’ of what makes for a civilized society seem to be under threat. Kennedy argues that society needs a ‘tolerance process’, in which critical thinking and respectful judgment can take place in an atmosphere of debate and reasonably open communication, when issues around what can and cannot be tolerated about different beliefs, practices and attitudes in people in our own and other cultures, are examined and debated. Tolerating Strangers in Intolerant Times, with the help of psychoanalytic, literary, social and political thinking, looks at what such a tolerance process could look like in a world increasingly prone to intolerance and prejudice. It will appeal to psychoanalysts as well as scholars of politics and philosophy.

Tolstoy on the Couch: Misogyny, Masochism and the Absent Mother
by Daniel Rancour-LaferriereIn his 1889 novella The Kreutzer Sonata Lev Tolstoy declared war on human sexuality. Having fathered thirteen children by his wife and at least two children by peasant women, the great Russian writer now has the arrogance to suggest that people should stop having children. Psychoanalysis of Tolstoy's diaries and other private materials reveals that Tolstoy's anti-sex position was grounded in a sadistic attitude towards women (including his wife Sonia) and a punishing, masochistic attitude towards himself. These feelings, in turn, were related to the trauma of maternal loss in Tolstoy's early childhood.

„Tomo spricht nicht mit mir“: Eine Untersuchung hinsichtlich der Anwendung ausgewählter Methoden der Leiborientierten Musiktherapie bei Menschen mit Autismus (Reihe Psychologie #43)
by Ludger Kowal-SummekAutistische Störungen gehören von den Klassifikationsschemata her gesehen zu den tiefgreifenden Entwicklungsstörungen. Das Erscheinungsbild des Autismus ist so mannigfaltig, dass heute von Autismus-Spektrum-Störungen gesprochen wird. Die Hauptschwierigkeiten der Menschen mit Autismus liegen im Bereich der Kommunikation und Interaktion.Musiktherapie, als eine Form der künstlerischen Therapien, geht hier den Weg einer nonverbalen Kommunikation und dies nicht erst seit heute. Viele Musiktherapeuten sind auf der Basis unterschiedlicher Theorien, Konzepte und Methoden bereits diesen Weg erfolgreich gegangen und tun dies immer noch.Auf der Grundlage sowohl neurer Erkenntnisse über die Autismus-Spektrum-Störungen insgesamt als auch unter Berücksichtigung neuer Forschungsmethoden verändern und entwickeln sich auch die therapeutischen Möglichkeiten.Somit kommt es auch auf dem Feld der Musiktherapien zu Neu- und Weiterentwicklungen. Die Leiborientierte Musiktherapie, als weitgehend neue Schule im Orchester der Schulen der Musiktherapie, stellt, um im Bild zu bleiben, ein neues Orchestermitglied dar. Was sie mitbringt, ist eine neues Grundverständnis auf der Basis der Phänomenologie und der Humanistischen Psychologie und eine Vielzahl neuer Methoden.Das Hauptanliegen des hier vorliegenden Buches besteht in der Überprüfung der Möglichkeit der Anwendung einer Auswahl des Methoden-Schatzes der Leiborientierten Musiktherapie im Rahmen einer Einzelfallstudie auf der Grundlage einer Videoanalyse (Segmentierungsanalyse) von sechs zufällig ausgewählten Videos aus dem Jahr 2010. Diese Videoas sind auf der beigefügten DVD enthalten.

Tony 10: The astonishing story of the postman who gambled €10,000,000 … and lost it all
by Tony O'Reilly Declan LynchTony 10 was the online betting username of Tony O’Reilly, the postman who became front-page news in 2011 after he stole €1.75 million from An Post while he was a branch manager in Gorey. He used the money to fund a gambling addiction that began with a bet of €1 and eventually rose to €10 million, leading to the loss of his job, his family, his home – and winning him a prison sentence.From the heart-stopping moments in a hotel room in Cyprus with his wedding money riding on the Epsom Derby, to the euphoria of winning half a million over a weekend, to the late goals and the horses falling at the last fence, Tony 10 is the story of an ordinary man’s journey from normality to catastrophe. At times, he vowed to get out while he was ahead, only to be taken by another surge of adrenaline, falling deeper and deeper into a compulsion that consumed his life. His disappearance on the morning the fraud was discovered led to a surreal three days on the run in Northern Ireland, and ultimately his arrest, conviction and sentencing to four years in jail.Tony 10 is the mesmerising story of the secret life of a pathological gambler – as well as the most compelling account yet of the damage wrought by the online gambling industry.
Too Fast to Think: How to Reclaim Your Creativity in a Hyper-connected Work Culture
by Chris LewisOur lives are getting faster and faster. We are engulfed in constant distraction from email, social media and our 'always on' work culture. We are too busy, too overloaded with information and too focused on analytical left-brain thinking processes to be creative. Too Fast to Think exposes how our current work practices, media culture and education systems are detrimental to innovation. The speed and noise of modern life is undermining the clarity and quiet that is essential to power individual thought. Our best ideas are often generated when we are free to think diffusely, in an uninterrupted environment, which is why moments of inspiration so often occur in places completely separate to our offices. To reclaim creativity, Too Fast to Think teaches you how to retrain your brain into allowing creative ideas to emerge, before they are shut down by interruption, distraction or the self-doubt of your over-rational brain. This is essential reading for anyone who wants to maximize their creative potential, as well as that of their team. Supported by cutting-edge research from the University of the Arts London and insightful interviews with business leaders, academics, artists, politicians and psychologists, Chris Lewis takes a holistic approach to explain the 8 crucial traits that are inherently linked to creation and innovation.

Too Simple to Fail: A Case for Educational Change
by R. Barker BausellToo Simple to Fail presents a startling dissection of what is wrong with our educational system and a set of simple, common-sense steps for improving it. This simplicity, Bausell argues, characterizes both the schooling process and the science of education, as witnessed by legions of researchers who have discovered precious little that their grandmothers didn't already know. Yet surprisingly, based upon the author's own studies and a review of the past 30+ years of educational research, these discoveries boil down to a simple but powerful theory: The only way schools can increase learning is to increase the amount of relevant instructional time for all students. Here, Bausell demonstrates that classroom instruction is hopelessly obsolete, as are our current testing practices, both contributing to the widening opportunity gap between socioeconomic and racial groups. But with an understanding of what is wrong with education today comes the revelation that the answer to these deficiencies has been available to us all along in the form of the tutorial model, the most effective instructional paradigm ever developed. Only in recent years has it become feasible to simulate this extremely effective instructional medium as a universal option that, in effect, would allow schools to provide relevant instruction as a rule and not an exception. If implemented, a new world of opportunity and potential will finally be available to children, whose learning is so crucial for our future. The new model presented in this book has implications for identifying not only what is wrong with the way we educate our young, but also why it is wrong, and how the educational process can be made more efficient, effective, and fair.

Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart: Thirty True Things You Need to Know Now
by Gordon LivingstonThe beloved bestselling collection of common sense wisdom from a celebrated psychologist and military veteran who proves it's never too late to move beyond the deepest of personal lossesAfter service in Vietnam, as a surgeon for the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment in 1968-69, at the height of the war, Dr. Gordon Livingston returned to the U.S. and began work as a psychiatrist. In that capacity, he has listened to people talk about their lives--what works, what doesn't, and the limitless ways (many of them self-inflicted) that people find to be unhappy.He is also a parent twice bereaved; in one thirteen-month period he lost his eldest son to suicide, his youngest to leukemia. Out of a lifetime of experience, Gordon Livingston has extracted thirty bedrock truths, including:We are what we do.Any relationship is under the control of the person who cares the least.The perfect is the enemy of the good.Only bad things happen quickly.Forgiveness is a form of letting go, but they are not the same thing.The statute of limitations has expired on most of our childhood traumas.Livingston illuminates these and twenty-four other truths in a series of carefully hewn, perfectly calibrated essays, many of which focus on our closest relationships and the things that we do to impede or, less frequently, enhance them. Again and again, these essays underscore that "we are what we do," and that while there may be no escaping who we are, we have the capacity to face loss, misfortune, and regret and to move beyond them--that it is not too late.Full of things we may know but have not articulated to ourselves, Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart offers solace, guidance, and hope to everyone ready to become the person they'd most like to be.
Too Tired to Fight: 13 Essential Conflicts Parents Must Have to Keep Their Relationship Strong

In fact, those with children often feel the added desire to have and become it all: the perfect parents, partners, and fulfilled individuals.

This book shows you that it doesn't have to be this way.In Too Tired to Fight, relationship therapists and parenting couple Erin and Dr Stephen Mitchell walk you through the 13 fights that are necessary to maintain a strong relationship. By examining real-life scenarios that lead to arguments - from discipline, work, social pressures and sharing labour to intimacy after kids - they offer simple scripts for transforming conflict into connection. With the right mindset shift, anyone can turn the messy and tense moments of disconnection into experiences of repair and healing.

The book concludes with a look at practical ways of using the information gathered from the data produced.
The Tool Instinct
by François OsiurakHumans use countless tools and are constantly creating new ones. We are so prone to materiality that the changes we implement in our environment could put our very survival at stake. It has therefore become necessary to question the cognitive origins of this materiality. The Tool Instinct examines this subject by diametrically setting aside the idea that tool use is limited to manual activity. It proposes an original perspective that surpasses a great number of false beliefs regarding the relationship between humans and tools. The author argues that the human tendency to create and use tools relies on our ability (one that may be unique to our species) to generate our own physical problems, thereby resulting in a reasoning that is directed towards our physical world.

Toolkit for Counseling Spanish-Speaking Clients: Enhancing Behavioral Health Services
by Lorraine T. BenutoThis timely practical reference addresses the lack of Spanish-language resources for mental health professionals to use with their Latino clients. Geared toward both English- and Spanish-speaking practitioners in a variety of settings, this volume is designed to minimize misunderstandings between the clinician and client, and with that the possibility of inaccurate diagnosis and/or ineffective treatment. Coverage for each topic features a discussion of cultural considerations, guidelines for evidence-based best practices, a review of available findings, a treatment plan, plus clinical tools and client handouts, homework sheets, worksheets, and other materials. Chapters span a wide range of disorders and problems over the life-course, and include reproducible resources for: Assessing for race-based trauma. Using behavioral activation and cognitive interventions to treat depression among Latinos. Treating aggression, substance use, abuse, and dependence among Latino Adults. Treating behavioral problems among Latino adolescents. Treating anxiety among Latino children. Working with Latino couples. Restoring legal competency with Latinos. The Toolkit for Counseling Spanish-Speaking Clients fills a glaring need in behavioral service delivery, offering health psychologists, social workers, clinical psychologists, neuropsychologists, and other helping professionals culturally-relevant support for working with this under served population. The materials included here are an important step toward dismantling barriers to mental health care.
