Confessions of a Former Child
"Daniel J. Tomasulo chronicles and confesses his childhood delusions, his particularly challenging experiences as a parent, and his life as a psychologist with refreshing candor and laugh-out-loud humor. His memories of being a kid--controlling streetlights, avoiding any foods with seeds lest he get pregnant, enduring his mother's cold love--are vivid, and his life as a parent is riddled with dilemmas. To start, he finds himself locked in a rubber-walled hospital room while his wife is in labor, and later he faces the necessity of giving mouth-to-mouth to his daughter's suffocating Raggedy Ann doll. As a professional who specializes in the highly personal, he traces the unusual and illuminating connections between his own life and evocative scenes from the lives of his patients"--P. [4] of cover.

Action Methods In Group Psychotherapy
Based on the Interactive-Behaviour Group model created by the author, this book enables group counsellors/facilities to enact a group method that allows participants to experiment with interactive skills in a safe environment. It bridges the gap between what is known from the research about how groups work and the more practical aspects of running effective groups.; Suggestions are provided throughout the text for avoiding pitfalls in group psychotherapy.

Thus, this resource is appropriate for practitioners of group therapy and as a text in master's and doctoral-level group counselling techniques classes.

Digital vs Human
From the author of the international bestseller Future Files comes the one book you need to read to prepare for the world of tomorrow. On most measures that matter, we’ve never had it so good.

Perhaps this is due to a failure of vision; in the 1960s we dreamed of flying cars and moon hotels; today what we’ve ended up with are status updates and cat videos. To a large degree, the history of the next fifty years will be about the relationship between people and technologies created by a tiny handful of designers and developers. These inven...
