Sophie Taeuber-Arp: A Life Through Art
An intimate look at the life and career of the Dada hero known for the unique joy of her work across mediums, authored by her great-niece and buttressed with archival material Even when performing at Zurich's Cabaret Voltaire during Dada's halcyon days, Swiss artist Sophie Taeuber-Arp (1889-1943) stood out from the crowd: her choreography, paintings, sculptures, puppets and textiles were all infused with a unique joy that set her apart from her contemporaries. In this important new publication, Taeuber-Arp's great-niece pays homage to the artist's pioneering oeuvre and rich personal life. Silvia Boadella grew up with Taeuber-Arp's oeuvre to hand and draws from her memories, stories and family documents, as well as hitherto unpublished sources for this volume. Boadella provides readers for the first time with a portrait of Taeuber-Arp's personality, her private and artistic environment, connecting the phases of her life to her works, and, with the aid of numerous illustrations including photographs from the family archives, constructs a vivid experience for the reader.

Biosynthesis means "integration of life". It is a holistic form of body psychotherapy, which was founded over forty-five years ago. The concept of life-streams is one of its major foundations, which has since been supported by research in neurobiology.

Biosynthesis Therapy has developed a broad spectrum of reliable methods to make this possible and to free our life energy. It is resource-oriented and is practised worldwide. David Boadella brings his many years of experience to provide in this book a trend-setting model for the understanding both ...
Die tragende Haut
Was haben Geburt und Sterben gemeinsam? Die Autorin erzählt, wie eine Familie mit Grenzerfahrungen umgeht. Mirjam wird zum Sterben ihrer Stiefmutter gerufen. Dieses Erlebnis verändert sie und weckt zugleich die Erinnerung an die Geburt ihres Kindes. Ist die Geburt ein ähnlicher Vorgang wie das Sterben, nur in die andere Richtung? Die tragende Haut lädt den Leser auf eine Reise in die Tiefe unserer Existenz ein. Ein Roman voller Spannung, Mut und Hoffnung. Stimmen zum Buch: "Die tragende Haut ist ein ungewöhnliches Buch, welches von aussen nach innen, vom Spektakulären ins Intime, vom Einmaligen zu dem führt, was allen Menschen früher oder später widerfährt. Die grossen Themen von Tod und Geburt erweisen sich in der Nahsicht, aus der sie erzählt werden, als überraschend und spannend." Prof. em. Dr. Karl Pestalozzi, Universität Basel
Therapy
Therapy: The Basics is an introductory book to psychotherapy and its different theoretical approaches. It attempts to demystify and de-stigmatise therapy by answering some common questions posed by prospective clients. lykou presents an accessible overview of psychotherapy and counselling, mapping a variety of the most popular approaches from psychoanalysis and cognitive behavious therapy to embodied and creative therapies, whilst giving an overview of the roots of psychotherapy in traditional and indigenous healing methods. The book also acknowledges criticisms of current approaches, with their neo-liberal heteronormative Eurocentric perspective, and considers where therapy stands in today’s globalised world.

This book is essential reading for trainees, a useful reference for qualified therapists who want to deepen their knowledge, a supporting resource for prospective psychotherapy clients, and a companion for readers who simply want to expand their horizons.
