Little Hut by the Sea
CELEBRATING SIXTY YEARS OF COMPOSING POETRY It was sixty years ago when I wrote my first four lines of a poem in English. This was called The Fireplace. I was thirteen years of age and a second year student of The English School in my hometown Morphou, Cyprus. The composition of poetry is an art where words construct sentences, verses using metaphors and symbols, which in turn are based on imagination, facts, and life experiences. A poem does not have to rhyme and yet it can be a stanza, a canto to a loved one, an ode to a hero, a sarcastic remark to emphasise the importance of a point made, an elegy composed to explain feelings arranged as a work of art. What prose can explain in three hundred pages, a poem (as a masterpiece) can express in one single page; with more meaning, using larger-than-life pictures describing timeless classic scenes, memorable events and bringing immortality to life itself.
Jung's Psychotherapy
This presentation of Jung's psychotherapy is intended to give a condensed picture and an introduction to his extensive publications and method of therapy. Jung popularised the terms 'introvert and extravert', interpreted the deeper conscious levels, and established psychotherapy as the treatment of disorders. His theory of 'psychic energy' emphasised a final point of view as against a purely causal one. His discovery and exploration of the 'collective unconscious', with its 'archetypes' was an impersonal substratum underlying the 'personal unconscious'; the concept of the psyche as a 'self-regulating system' expressing itself in the process of 'individualisation'. Jung's latter work included dreams and drawings interpretation, symbolism, myths, historical antecedents, physics... Thus, Jung's work has become of great importance for medicine, psychology, anthropology, religion, art, history, literature, etc...

Machiavelli's Politics & Relevant Philosophical Concepts
Machiavelli's first post was that of Clerk in the Second Chancery of the Commune and in I498 he was promoted as a Second Chancellor and Secretary. He continued in this office till the year 15I2. While thus employed he undertook a large number of diplomatic missions both to the petty courts of Italy and to other countries, and it was the experience of these missions which was largely responsible for forming the views which he subsequently expounded in his political writings. He was specially influenced by his mission to the camp of Cesare Borgia, Duke of Valentinois, in 1502. Although Machiavelli had undertaken this mission unwillingly, he soon conceived an intense admiration for Cesare's resourcefulness in resorting alternatively to diplomacy and force as instruments of government and for his firm administration of conquered provinces. Machiavelli idealised Cesare's achievements and thought that Cesare had attained, more than any other public figure of the time; the embodiment of a perfect ruler.

Medical Ethics Through the Ages
Ethics are a set of human rules, which morally allow an individual to interact in, or live freely within a group of people. This may be in society at large, a team, a professional body, or a group of people with similar interests.Historically, ethics or moral philosophy, are as old as human comprehension. These can be traced back to the pre-historic prohibited and accepted patterns of attitudes. Through the ages, attempts were made by thinkers to clarify the way people behave, share things, mix in numbers, and maintain standards. In modern times, the catalogue of such values and rules become part of all professions. Ethical contacts change with the advent of a new belief, codes of practice and reliance on each other. The brief historical survey of Western ethics from Socrates to the 21st century has shown constant themes. Each of these major questions is considered by this book in terms of meta-ethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics.
Change Management
In order to make it easier to read and to be used as a working manual, this version of the Change Management book is printed in large fonts and larger-clearer diagrams.The Concept of Change Management has traditionally been concerned with finding effective solutions to specific operational problems. This book deals with new, better methods, techniques, and tools for processing the required changes. Change Management personnel have gradually come to realise that their tasks should include the designing of systems that predict and prevent future problems. Substantial effort has therefore been devoted in recommending a rational methodology for the management of changes.
BRITISH PHILOSOPHERS, 16TH TO 18TH CENTURY
Philosophy may be briefly defined as the study of the nature and implications of rational thought. From this, general study conclusions may be drawn about the implications of rational thought in specific fields, such as the moral and political, and these implications constitute moral and therapeutic philosophy. If, as the empiricist believes, philosophy leads to the conclusion that the rational part of experience is much smaller than is commonly supposed, this is itself a rational proposition of the first importance. The purpose of this book is to indicate, in the most general and summary fashion, the logical and metaphysical background of philosophy, as conceived by the BRITISH PHILOSOPHERS OF THE 16TH TO 18TH CENTURY.
ROUSSEAU ON WILL AND MORALITY
Rousseau was one of the leading figures in the so-called 'Romantic Reaction' which followed the 'Age of Enlightenment'. The latter was the name given to the period from about 1650 till late in the eighteenth century when the leading thinkers of both England and France were inspired by a faith in the power of human reason to achieve a final understanding of the universe and to provide a rational guide for human conduct. It is generally agreed that the central theme of Rousseau's Social Contract - man's loss of his natural liberties in the modern state played no small part in fanning the flames of discontent which culminated in the French Revolution. Rousseau argues that the social contract provides the solution to this fundamental problem. By this he means that a society founded upon a social contract, will provide its members with both the freedom of the state of nature and the advantages of civil law and order.
