Summary

“[A] groundbreaking study combining psychoanalytical and anthropological methods to analyse the impact of industrialization on ‘peasants.’” —Booknews The renowned psychoanalyst Erich Fromm analyzed more than just general society and societal processes. Together with Michael Maccoby, he completed a study of Mexican villagers to empirically illustrate how historical, economic, and social requirements determine behavior.Social Character in a Mexican Village does much more than introduce a new approach to the analysis of social phenomena. It throws new light on one of the world’s most pressing problems, the impact of the industrialized world on the traditional character of the laboring class. Unanimously, the book is an outstanding introduction to Fromm’s concept of social character. “Fromm and Maccoby have written a study of crucial importance.” —Richard J. Barnet, Institute for Policy Studies

    Are you constantly seeking reassurance from others? Do you suffer from debilitating anxiety if you aren't absolutely certain about everything? Seeking reassurance to remove doubt or fear is natural, and we all do it from time to time. However, it becomes a compulsion when it develops into something repetitive and ritualistic. This compulsion is linked to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), can perpetuate and worsen this condition, and can also create conflict between you, your friends, coworkers, and loved ones. So, how do you stop?The Compulsive Reassurance Seeking Workbook offers proven-effective tools to reduce compulsions, make peace with uncertainty, and better manage your OCD. Grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), an evidence-based treatment for OCD, this workbook reveals how reassurance seeking can interfere with your relationships, and provides healthy coping strategies you can use to reassure yourself—without resorting to compulsive questioning.Compulsive reassurance seeking can be exhausting, and more often than not, exposes you and those closest to you to increased levels of conflict, stress, and anxiety. It's time to reassure yourself the right way—a way that encourages and empowers you to seek genuine well-being, self-worth, and peace of mind from within. This workbook can help you get started today.

    How to Quickly Learn the Magic of Writing SuccessFor most of my adult life I have been engaged in the writing, the editing, or the criticizing of fiction.I took, and I still take, the writing of fiction seriously.So I make no apology for writing seriously about the problems of fiction writers. I have had firsthand experience with almost every current "approach" to the problems of writing.The difficulties of the average student or amateur writer begin long before he has come to the place where he can benefit by technical instruction in story writing.He had longed to hear that there was some magic about writing, and to be initiated into the brotherhood of authors.This book, I believe, will be unique; for I think he is right. I think there is such a magic, and that it is teachable. This book is all about the writer's magic.(From the Introduction.)

    This short course sets out a detailed study of the text, philosophy, and significance of the millennia-old yoga system defined in the Yogasutras. The popular practice of yoga finds its origin in one of the most venerated wisdom books of India: the Yogasutras. Comprised of 196 short statements on the essential teachings of yoga, Patanjali’s Yogasutras holds the position of being the seminal work that defines the yoga system. Over the centuries many important commentaries have been written that seek to explain and extrapolate the full meaning of the sutras, and to this day, the text continues to be appreciated for the profound wisdom contained within it. While the Yogasutras were originally written in Sanskrit, this short course offers an accessible translation and commentary without sacrificing any of its profound wisdom. This edition will allow the reader to study and dive into the meaning and philosophy of this ancient text with its significant contemporary relevance. Yoga students, practitioners, and scholars alike will appreciate the way in which this short course guides the reader through the text.
