-Titulo Original : Stray Birds (Esprios Classics)-Fabricante : Blurb-Descripcion Original: Psychotherapy: An Erotic Relationship challenges the traditional belief that transference and countertransference are merely forms of resistance which jeopardize the therapeutic process. David Mann shows how the erotic feelings and fantasies experienced by clients and therapists can be used to bring about a positive transformation. Combining extensive and lively clinical examples with theoretical insights and new research on infants, David Mann suggests that the development of the erotic derives from interactions between the parent and child and is seldom absent from the therapist-patient relationship. However, while the erotic always contains elements of past relationships, it also expresses hope for a different outcome in the present and future. Individual chapters explore the function of the erotic within the unconscious: erotic pre-Oedipal and Oedipal material; homoeroticism in therapy; sexual intercourse as a metaphor for psychological change; the primal scene in the transference, and the difficulties of working with perversions. The book is as relevant now as it was when originally published. This Classic Edition contains a new Introduction by David Mann, summarizing his current ideas since this book was first published in 1997. It brings the therapy setting alive, offering clinicians both an accessible and deeper understanding of the interaction between erotic transference and countertransference; it also gives an explicit picture of how these aspects of therapy can be used to enhance the therapeutic process. It remains an essential resource for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists and counsellors, their clients, and anybody with an interest in Eros, desire or mental health issues. About the Author David Mann is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and supervisor in private practice in Tunbridge Wells. He was previously a consultant psychotherapist for 15 years in the NHS. He is a member of the British Psychoanalytic Council and the UK Council for Psychotherapy. He has run his workshop, Working with the erotic Transference and Countertransference around the UK and Europe. He has authored numerous articles and book chapters and is the editor of three significant books on the erotic transference, love and hate, and trauma...

-Titulo Original : Howards End (Esprios Classics)-Fabricante : Blurb-Descripcion Original: Achieving Successful Business Outcomes: Driving High Performance & Effective Transformations in a Continuously Evolving Business Environment Navigating in space is exponentially more difficult than navigating on the road - because there are too many directions to investigate, too many unknowns to be prepared for and infinite pathways to chart in the galactic system. So it is with business. Business environments are extremely demanding and change continuously, precipitated by innumerable actors and conditions. Business success cannot be predicated on the pedigree of a leader or a prescribed theory alone, as start-ups have amply proven. Large companies have tried to copy nimble-footed start-ups while start-ups, after achieving a certain size, have been forced to adapt to unchartered territory. Disruptions seems to be the order of the day. This book is about achieving successful business outcomes. An aircraft has a complex dashboard of dials, where only a critical few need to be monitored continuously, and other subsets warrant attention only during specific phases of the flight. A well-modeled business can be managed successfully using a similar strategy. But the larger question is how to model a business, with closely correlated variables, to represent the reality of the environment and to allow for devising, formulating and adjusting business strategy and actions in real-time. The author uses a simple but well-researched STA-Triangle (space, time and action) model to achieve this purpose. The core of the STA model is to help navigate effectively in a rapidly changing business environment. Unlike traditional business studies that use a single lens to define business rules or organizational practices, it uses the combination of space, time and action as the driver of outcomes - something fundamental and core to human thinking across the ages. This book contains both theoretical and practical applications - the former helps propel further research and analysis and the latter helps practicing leaders confidently drive their firms forward in any environmental conditions. It will also help causal readers understand how the future is evolving and how different organizations are responding to this change. The author includes more than a hundred supporting examples and tools that help create highly incisive and unique views for calibrating strategy and execution. Visit the authors website at alokksinha Review Alok K Sinha is a name to remember, and ‘Achieving Successful Business Outcomes’ is a tour-de-force. The book is Sinhas impressive intellectual take on essential corporate strategies for the 21st century. Distilled from decades of Sinhas pragmatic business experience, reinventing enterprise after enterprise, this book is not for the faint-hearted.

Steven Sonsino, author of ‘Leadership Unplugged’ and ‘The Seven Failings of Really Useless Leaders’ Alok has hit the nail on the head! The future demands an entirely new approach to strategic thinking - and MUST be multi-dimensional, multi-faceted and exponential! This does not mean it is devoid of structure…quite the opposite in fact he offers us a comprehensive, relevant and structured way to synthesise the complex forces shaping our future world. It is crucial for leaders to comprehend the interdependencies between a wide range of forces that impact on our future choices and options. More importantly, how these can be used to create optionality and market differentiation. This is a valuable and important contribution to our future relevance toolkit!

-Titulo Original : A Short Method Of Prayer-Fabricante : Blurb-Descripcion Original: Some apology is perhaps needed when a Protestant thus brings before Protestant readers the works of a consistent Roman Catholic author. The plea must be, that the doctrine and experience described are essentially Protestant; and so far from their receiving the assent of the Roman Catholic Church, their author was persecuted for holding and disseminating them. Of the experience of Madame Guyon, it should be borne in mind, that though the glorious heights of communion with God to which she attained may be scaled by the feeblest of Gods chosen ones, yet it is by no means necessary that they should be reached by the same apparently arduous and protracted path along which she was led...
