Storying Mental Illness and Personal Recovery
This book contains excerpts of life stories from 118 individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and major depressive disorder. This library of personal narratives, heavily reproduced and quoted throughout the text, presents a composite image of the ways in which narrative identity can be affected by mental illness while also being a resource for personal recovery. Those researching, studying or practicing in mental health professions will find a wealth of humanizing first-person perspectives on mental illness that foster perspective-taking and aid patient-centered treatment and study. Researchers of narrative psychology will find a unique set of life stories synthesized with existing literature on identity and recovery. Moving towards intervention, the authors include a 'guide for narrative repair' with the aim of healing narrative identity damage and fostering growth of adaptive narrative identity.
Storying Mental Illness and Personal Recovery

The Purpose Factor
YOU WANT CLARITY. You are tired of wondering, “What’s next?” You want to know if you are making the right decision. You are ready for fewer distractions, more direction, and a clear idea of where you want to go. AND YOU WANT IT NOW. You would take the initiative, if you only knew what steps to take. You don’t want life to happen to you. You are ready for life to start happening because of you. PURPOSE IS THE FACTOR. In The Purpose Factor, you will discover the most practical and effective process ever developed for finding and living out your purpose. Purpose is the single difference between simply existing and really living. It is what separates the successful from the standard, divides the top earners from the just-get-byers, and determines whether a company will grow and thrive or just barely survive. Your purpose will unlock the secret to living a meaningful life, building a successful career, and making a difference in the world. Knowing your purpose will determine how well you do and how far you go.
Livshistorien
Hvem var mennesket bag myten Mærsk McKinney Møller egentlig? Og hvordan blev Zlatan Ibrahimovic sådan en dygtig fodboldspiller? Vi sluger biografier råt og bruger de kendte menneskers historie til at spejle vores liv i. Men ikke kun de berømte har en historie at fortælle – vi har alle en livshistorie, og den er afgørende for vores identitet. Psykolog Dorthe Kirkegaard Thomsen, lektor ved Aarhus Universitet, viser, at vi bruger livshistorien til at navigerer med, og at ikke alle historier er lige gode kompas, hvis du sigter efter et vellykket liv.
Your Whole Life
A holistic view of human development that rejects the conventional stages of childhood, adulthood, and old age When we talk about human development, we tend to characterize it as proceeding through a series of stages in which we are first children, then adolescents, and finally, adults. But as James Bernard Murphy observes, growth is not limited to the young nor is decline limited to the aged. We are never trapped within the horizon of a particular life stage: children anticipate adulthood and adults recapture childhood. According to Murphy, the very idea of stages of life undermines our ability to see our lives as a whole. In Your Whole Life, Murphy asks: what accounts for the unity of a hu...

Pioneering Participatory Art Practices
Participatory art practices allow members of an audience to actively contribute to the creation of art. Annemarie Kok provides a detailed analysis and explanation of the use of participatory strategies in art in the so-called ›long sixties‹ (starting around 1958 and ending around 1974) in Western Europe. Drawing on extensive archival materials and with the help of the toolbox of the actor-network theory, she maps out the various actors of three case studies of participatory projects by John Dugger and David Medalla, Piotr Kowalski, and telewissen, all of which were part of documenta 5 (Kassel, 1972).
