Kala itu awal Februari 1997. Aku teramat malas bepergian, ke pekarangan saja enggannya luar biasa. Betahku hanya satu, di dalam rumah, khususnya di pojok kamar, hanya untuk duduk bersimpuh, bertopang dagu. Ketika rasa pusing menyerang begitu dahsyat, sering kali tanganku mencengkeram kepala dan menjambak-jambak rambut.... Aku teringat lagi perceraianku dengan Mas Jatmiko, juga kedua anakku. Kusesali pernikahanku, kenapa harus memilih dia... Aku merasa menjadi manusia buangan yang tidak berdaya, sangat bodoh sebagai manusia, terjebak dalam penyesalan karena rumah tanggaku sudah kandas. Kesedihan dan lamunan itu akhirnya membawaku ke dunia lain. Dan aku sungguh hidup di dunia lain itu. Gelar R...

Dunia terus tumbuh dengan cepat tanpa sepenuhnya mampu kita pahami dan ikuti. Membaca membantu kita perlahan menyadari obskuritas dan ketidakpastian yang kita alami hari ini. Sebagaimana kita pun tahu, sastra adalah salah satu hal yang membuka ruang baru bagi pengalaman psikis kita sebagai individu maupun kelompok, karena darinya kita membaca kehidupan manusia, yang sekalipun dikemas sebagai sebuah fiksi, merupakan tangkapan terhadap realitas historis kita. Buku ini adalah kumpulan interaksi saya dengan buku-buku dan peristiwa. Saya membaca Borges, kemudian Bukowski, Orwell, Sapardi, Kundera, Blackpink, Saramago, Heidegger, dan lainnya, berusaha menangkap hal-hal lain yang tak tertangkap dalam sekali pembacaan. Semua itu membuat saya semakin ingin banyak membaca. Saya percaya bahwa, membaca akan memberikan peta kepada hati dan pikiran kita untuk menentukan arah dan letak yang mesti kita tuju sebagai manusia yang sebenarnya. Wawan Kurniawan

This is the long-awaited successor to Jeffrey Cummings' classic work, Clinical Neuropsychiatry, published in 1985. That book represented an integration of behavioral neurology and biological psychiatry into a single volume devoted to explicating brain-behavior relationships. It was clinically oriented and intended for practitioners caring for patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. The new title reflects the authors' effort to link the recent explosion of new information from neurochemistry, neuroanatomy, genetics, neuropharmacology, neuropathology, and neuroimaging to the clinical descriptions. Yet the clinical emphasis of its predecessor has been maintained. Each chapter has a consistent approach and the book as whole provides a practical, easy-to-use synthesis of clinical advice and basic science. The volume is enhanced by 4-color images throughout. It is intended for students, residents, fellows, and practitioners of neurology, psychiatry, neuropsychology, and cognitive neuroscience. It will also be of interest to individuals in neuroimaging.
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is now well established as an effective treatment for a range of mental health problems, but for clinicians working with older clients, there are particular issues that need to be addressed. Topics covered include the need to build a therapeutic relationship, dealing with stereotypical thinking about ageing, setting realistic expectations in the face of deteriorating medical conditions, maintaining hope when faced with difficult life events such as the loss of a spouse, disability, etc., and dealing with the therapist's own fears about ageing. Illustrated throughout with case studies, practical solutions and with a troubleshooting section, this is essential reading for all clinical psychologists, psychiatrists and related health professionals who work with older people. * Authors are world authorities on depression and psychotherapy with older people * First book to be published on CBT with older people * Case studies and examples used throughout to illustrate the method and the problems of older people
Details recent advances in neuroscience that have yielded a more accurate understanding of the brain's functions and malfunctions and, in turn, have moved psychiatry away from psychotherapy and into the mainstream biological traditions of medicine.
