Our Human Herds
Our Human Herds presents a new theory in moral and political philosophy, called "dual morality." The theory proposes that just as the physical senses of sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing evolved to help us navigate our physical environment, two independent moral senses evolved to guide us to success in our social world. One prioritizes cooperation; the other, competition. The first bases moral justification on the egalitarianism that emphasizes our equal worth; the other finds moral justification in the inequalities that allow us to distinguish better from worse. "Liberal" and "conservative" are merely the names given to the political manifestations of these two forms of moral expressio...

Kiss Me While I Sleep
Efficient, professional, and without apology, Lily Mansfield is a hired assassin, working as a contract agent for the CIA. Her targets are the powerful and corrupt, those who can't be touched by the law. Now, after 18 years of service, Lily has been drawn into a dangerous game that hasn't been sanctioned, seeking vengeance for her own reasons. Each move bolder than the next, she is compromising her superiors, endangering her very life. Though stress and shock have made her feel somewhat invincible and a little cocky, Lily knows that she too can be taken out in an instant. And if it's her time, so be it. She intends to go down fighting. A CIA agent himself, Lucas Swain recognizes the signs of trauma in the line of fire. His orders are to either bring her in or bring her down. Yet he too is drawn into the game with Lily Mansfield, dancing on a tightrope as he tries to avoid a major international incident while still battling a tenacious foe who is dogging their every step. Keeping laser focus on her task at hand while vigilantly watching her back, Mansfield never sees the lethal peril that lies directly in her path . . . and how loyalty has a price.
The Human Paradox
In The Human Paradox: Worlds Apart in a Connected World, author Frank Gaffikin probes widely and meticulously into our past and present to analyse the connections between the many acute polarisations that mark contemporary times. Addressing profound issues related to Trumpism, Brexit, the outbreak of Covid-19 and ensuing pandemic, and environmental change, the book argues that beneath all the present social tumult lies a fundamental dilemma for human stability and progress, namely how we can be estranged from what we refer to as humanity. The book begins with an appraisal of populism and authoritarian nationalism, and later explores whether, in our human development, we are bound for enhance...
The Defense
Dynamite defense attorney Joseph Antonelli has never lost a case--or felt the sting of conscience for letting the guilty go free. "I can deceive anyone," he says, "and no one more quickly or more completely than myself." Now the man he most admires, the honorable Judge Rifkin, has asked him a favor: Defend a drug dealer accused of raping his twelve-year-old stepdaughter. Yet in D. W. Buffa's The Defense, Antonelli's acceptance of the case sets in motion an explosive chain of corruption, betrayal, and murder that will leave no one unscathed. . . .
À propos de la métamorphose d'Oedipe en héros de Colone
Personne n'avait encore analysé ce que cachait la "malédiction familiale" héritée par Oedipe à sa naissance. En remontant sur quatre générations, jusqu'à Cadmos, l'auteur décrypte enfin les héritages transgénérationnels qui aliènent Oedipe avant qu'il ne découvre son adoption et l'identité de ses parents. La crise qu'il traverse ensuite correspond au passage obligé pour intégrer cet héritage, guérir et naître à nouveau. Tirésias l'avait annoncé: "ce jour te verra naître et mourir à la fois." Contrairement à ce qui est communément admis, l'auteur montre que la fin cataclysmique d'Oedipe-roi n'est pas une issue fatale, mais une épreuve à traverser. La tragédie dev...
Analyses et perspectives
Ce livre est un recueil des premiers articles de l'auteur parus notamment dans le Psychoscope, le Bloc-notes de la psychanalyse et Cliniques Méditerranéennes. Il permet de suivre l'évolution des analyses de l'auteur, une sorte de "traçabilité", jusqu'à sa relecture du mythe d'Oedipe. Les références au nouveau paradigme se précisent au fur et à mesure des articles. En complément, l'auteur présente quelques clés d'analyses pour dépasser les apparences.
Thérapie transgénérationnelle et psychogenèse du sujet
La thérapie transgénérationnelle porte sur les héritages psychologiques, psychosomatiques et existentiels à l'origine de toutes sortes de récurrences symptomatiques et conflictuelles. Du culte des ancêtres des premières sociétés aux pratiques thérapeutiques contemporaines, l'auteur dégage les grands principes intemporels et universels qui régissent, d'une part, la transmission de ces héritages problématiques ainsi que, d'autre part, leur intégration et la restauration d'une psychogenèse du sujet. Dans cette perspective en effet, pour éviter d'engendrer de nouvelles dettes et pour assurer sa durabilité, le travail thérapeutique porte aussi sur la genèse d'un sujet apte à...
Intégrer ses héritages transgénérationnels
Nous sommes liés à nos ancêtres comme un arbre à ses racines. Leurs qualités et leur ADN nous habitent tout comme leurs histoires non terminées. En effet, les traumatismes, les deuils non faits, les conflits et les secrets de famille se répercutent de génération en génération et marquent la vie des descendants. Pour autant, et malgré l'influence de ces héritages transgénérationnels, l'auteur nous rappelle que nous ne sommes pas juste de produit du passé, ni le simple fruit de notre arbre de famille. Au lieu de subir ces héritages, nous pouvons les intégrer et réécrire les histoires faussées, incomplètes ou manquantes. À l'aide de nombreux exemples, l'auteur montre de q...
