The Sad Citizen
For many citizens, politics is depressing. How has this come to be the norm? And, how is it influencing democracy? From rising polarization to climate change, today’s politics are leaving many Western democracies in the throes of malaise. While anger, anxiety, and fear are loud emotions that powerfully activate voters, depression is quiet, demobilizing, and less visible as a result. Yet, its pervasiveness is cause for concern: after all, democracy should empower citizens. In The Sad Citizen, Christopher Jorge Ojeda draws on wide-ranging data from the United States and beyond to explain how politics is depressing, why this matters, and what we can do about it. Integrating insights from political science, sociology, psychology, and other fields, The Sad Citizen exposes the unhappy underbelly of contemporary politics and offers fresh ideas to strengthen democracy and help citizens cope with the stress of politics.
Out of the Depths I Cried
Out of the Depths I Cried by Christopher L. Bishop Christopher L. Bishop was diagnosed with Major Depression, PTSD, and SAD at the beginning of 2014. After three hospitalizations and a two-month outpatient treatment program, he finally had developed an idea of what he needed to do to get better. He kept looking for a guide to the whole recovery process in order to better understand how to reclaim his life and move forward. Since there wasn’t one to be found, he decided to make one as he was going through the process to document and build upon his experiences and the things that he had to learn the hard way. Out of the Depths I Cried is a step-by-step guide to managing depression. It answers questions about how to ask for help and about how prayer (as he now understands it) can help one grow through depression. Learn about the tools that he placed in his backpack to carry on the road of recovery. People diagnosed with the mental disorder and “normal” people alike can benefit from these tools to manage depression and grow closer to God through prayer.

Meaning and Cognition
The aim of this book is to present significant aspects of cognitive grammar by adopting an interdisciplinary approach. The book provides an interplay of contributions by some exponents of cognitive grammar (Langacker, Croft, Wood, Geeraerts, Kövecses, Wildgen), and philosophers of language (Albertazzi, Marconi, Peruzzi, Violi) who, in most cases, share a phenomenological and Gestalt approach to the problem of semantics. The topics covered include themes that are central to the debate in cognitive grammar, such as, metaphor, construal operations, prototypicality, Gestalt schemes and field semantics. The book offers evidence to support the cognitive hypothesis in semantics and the existence of a close connection between the structures of perception and the categories of natural language. Because of the approach employed, with its consideration of borderline aspects among semantics, linguistics, theoretical reflection and historical analysis, the book marks out a route for a philosophical inquiry complementary to a cognitive approach to the semantics of natural language.
