C G Jung and the Scientific Attitude

Edmund D. Cohen

Maison d'édition: Philosophical Library/Open Road

Synopsis

This probing study of the pioneering psychologist dispels many of the popular misconceptions about his work. Though Carl Jung is well known as one of the great pioneers of psychology and psychoanalysis, there are many persistent misconceptions about his work and legacy. Jungian psychology is rigorously scientific, yet its critics dismiss it as obscure and mystical. In C. G. Jung and the Scientific Attitude, Edmund D. Cohen sheds light on significant aspects of Jung’s work that academic psychology has previously all but overlooked.  Though Jung’s productivity spanned more than fifty years, his reputation rests largely on statements he made early in his career—statements upon which he later improved. In this fascinating and enlightening analysis, Cohen explores these statements and the misunderstandings they have caused. He also looks at the many paradoxes of Jungian psychology, showing that what first appears to be merely contradictory turn out to reveal a deeper meaning.

Ascending Darkness - The Life of...

Jason Smith

Welcome to a journey through history—cobwebs aren't the only relics hidden in the dusty corners of time. Our tale begins in the dingy underbelly of bygone eras where soot and grime paint the canvas of our story. We'll climb through the centuries with the nimble fingers and scuffed knees of child chimney sweeps, whose stories have been tucked away like a dirty secret amidst the grand tapestry of the past. It's a tale that'll pull at your heartstrings and tickle your funny bone, because, let's be honest, who can't help but chuckle at the thought of top-hatted gentlemen and pinafore-clad lasses, even as we dig into the less genteel side of history?

Tame Your Thoughts - Three Tools...

Max Lucado

NOW A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!Read by the author.When was the last time you awakened to a swirl of anxious, out-of-control thoughts?Perhaps you were overwhelmed with the weight of worry, the fear of failing, or the grip of guilt. The way we think directly impacts our joy and peace. In Tame Your Thoughts, Max Lucado provides three biblical and practical tools to renew your mind and transform your life.
Our thoughts have consequences. Most people would agree that positive thoughts generate positive actions. Negative thoughts activate negative behavior. But do we understand that we can manage our lives by managing our thoughts? Not only does neuroscience back this concept, but the idea is also embedded throughout Scripture. "Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind" (Rom.12:2 esv). Tame your thoughts and transform your life!
In Tame Your Thoughts, bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado explores three key thought management tools and then applies them to the most common thought problems: anxiety, guilt, rejection, and others. God loves us too much to let us lead a life marked by poor thinking. He made our brains; he can retrain our brains. God has not left us alone in this battle of the mind.Stuck in your head? Hounded by regrets? Weighed down by worry? Change is possible! The thoughts that have characterized your past need not characterize the rest of your life. You will learn to:Take thoughts captiveTest each message against the truth of ScriptureInterrupt poisonous thought threadsThink and act like Jesus If God can resurrect the dead, can he not resurrect hope? Defy depression? Clarify confusion? Silence shame? Destroy doubt? Banish bitterness?Take God at his word. "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind" (2 Tim. 1:7 nkjv, emphasis added). With God as their helper, you will discover a new way of thinking and a better way of living. A new person will begin to emerge.We can tame each thought, friends.
Figures, reflection questions, and a scripture database can be found in the audiobook companion PDF download.

The Secrets of the Federal Reserve

Eustace Mullins

The Secrets of the Federal Reserve* by Eustace Mullins investigates the origins, structure, and influence of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, arguing that it was created not solely to stabilize the economy but to serve the interests of an elite banking group. Mullins traces the Reserve’s formation back to a secret meeting on Jekyll Island and explores how this institution has impacted U.S. and global economics. The book examines key figures, banks, and historical contexts behind the Reserve, presenting a controversial view that challenges mainstream narratives about its purpose and control. This work is often cited by those critical of centralized banking power and has sparked much debate in economic and historical circles.
