“Yılan, Adem ve Havva’yı; şeytan, Habil’i öldürmesi için Kabil’i; Mefistofeles Faust’u; tilki kargayı kandırır. İnsanlar birbirini; bazen de kişi kendi kendini kandırır.” Bu sözler, kitaptaki bir bölümün giriş cümleleri, mesajı açık: Manipülasyon yeni değil. İnsan, kandırmak ve kandırılmak için ant içmişçesine, hayret verici şekilde tutarlı bir tavır sergiliyor! İnsanlığın ortak tecrübesi olan bu durumu yazgıya bağlamak, önemli bir konuyu gözden kaçırmak olurdu. Zira mantığa ve psikolojiye göre akıl çelinebilir; duygular yönlendirilebilir. İnsan zihni o kadar da kusursuz değil gibi. Retorik ve ikna çalışmaları başta olmak...

Road accidents are the major cause of death and injury among young people in the developing world, and the field of psychology can offer great insights into the many factors that are at play when we get behind the wheels of our cars. Based on data collected around the world on drivers of all age groups, Graham Hole provides an up to date picture of the realities of driving, including visual perception issues, cell phone distractions, fatigue, drugs, and the effects of aging. These insights can help explain why we crash, as well as how we achieve the amazing feat of not crashing more often than we do. In this jargon-free and very accessible book, Hole applies psychological methods and insights to this every-day experience with two audiences in mind. First, he speaks to accident investigators, who frequently rely on well-developed understandings of engineering and forensics and less insight into the psychology of the driver. Second, of course, this book will be of value to anyone interested in the application of cognitive psychology to real-world behaviors, and to anyone who drives.
Is shame social? Is it superficial? Is it a morally problematic emotion? Researchers in disciplines as different as psychology, philosophy, and anthropology have thought so. But what is the nature of shame and why are claims regarding its social nature and moral standing interesting and important? Do they tell us anything worthwhile about the value of shame and its potential legal and political applications?In this book, Julien A. Deonna, Raffaele Rodogno, and Fabrice Teroni propose an original philosophical account of shame aimed at answering these questions. The book begins with a detailed examination of the evidence and arguments that are taken to support what they call the two dogmas abo...
From a historical point of view the first studies on the response of the organism to stressful situations in general, and on the psychobiology of stress in particular, are probably those of Cannon and de la Paz, the physiologists who showed in 1911 that the adrenal medulla and the sympathetic system are involved in emergency situations. Cannon noted that the venous blood of cats frightened by barking dogs contained adrenaline, a response of the organism which was prevented by adrenalectomy or by section of the splanchnic nerve innervating the adrenal medulla. Cannon suggested that the adrenal medulla was acting in concert with the sympathetic nervous system, so that both systems were activat...
