Sinopse

"Resistance Creates Desire" explores why obstacles and limitations often amplify our longing and motivation. It examines the counterintuitive ways scarcity, prohibition, and difficulty enhance appeal, rooted in our psychological makeup. Delving into principles like scarcity (a cornerstone of behavioral economics), psychological reactance (our resistance to controlled freedom), and the forbidden fruit effect, the book reveals how these drive our decisions in unexpected ways. For example, limited-time offers in marketing leverage scarcity to boost consumer behavior, while censorship can inadvertently increase interest in the banned material. The book uniquely synthesizes insights from psychology and economics to provide a holistic understanding of resistance-driven desire. Beginning with core concepts supported by research, subsequent sections use real-world examples and case studies to demonstrate how these principles operate in diverse contexts. The narrative progresses from analyzing classic experiments to exploring practical implications, equipping readers with tools to critically evaluate manipulative strategies and understand their own motivations. This interdisciplinary approach offers a fresh perspective on human motivation and decision-making.

    From the president of Wesleyan University, an illuminating history of the student, spanning from antiquity to Zoom 
     
    In this sweeping book, Michael S. Roth narrates a vivid and dynamic history of students, exploring some of the principal models for learning that have developed in very different contexts, from the sixth century BCE to the present. 
     
    Beginning with the followers of Confucius, Socrates, and Jesus and moving to medieval apprentices, students at Enlightenment centers of learning, and learners enrolled in twenty-first-century universities, he explores how students have been followers, interlocutors, disciples, rebels, and children becoming adults. There are many ways to be a student, Roth argues, but at their core is developing the capacity to think for oneself by learning from others, and thereby finding freedom. 
     
    In an age of machine learning, this book celebrates the student who develops more than mastery, cultivating curiosity, judgment, creativity, and an ability to keep learning beyond formal schooling. Roth shows how the student throughout history has been someone who interacts dynamically with the world, absorbing its lessons and creatively responding to them.

    Discover how you can start to move toward hope and healing from your mental health struggles. 
    Mental illness loves to tell lies. One of those lies is that you should be able to manage what you're struggling with all by yourself, but in Depression, Anxiety, and Other Things We Don't Want to Talk About, pastor and psychotherapist Ryan Casey Waller reminds us that we don't have to suffer alone. 
    Mental health issues aren't a symptom of a spiritual failing or insufficient faith. In fact, suffering is the very thing our Savior seeks to heal as he leads us toward restoration. And yet, as Waller has experienced firsthand, the battle can be lonely and discouraging--but it doesn't have to be. 
    Combining practical theology, clinical insights, and deep empathy, Waller offers a rare mix of companionship and truth, inviting you to:Have shame-free conversations about mental healthDiscover why self-knowledge is so important to a deep relationship with GodUnderstand the intersection of biology, psychology, and spiritualityExplore varying avenues of healing in community, therapy, and medicationBe equipped to support loved ones while practicing self-care 
      
    Depression, Anxiety, and Other Things We Don't Want to Talk About bridges the gap between the spiritual and the psychological and is an empathetic, imminently helpful guidebook, reminding us all that we are not alone. Hope starts now. 
      
    Praise for Depression, Anxiety, and Other Things We Don't Want to Talk About: 
    "I work with Christian leaders from all over the country and have seen firsthand how desperately we need to be talking about depression and anxiety. What prior generations considered taboo, the leaders of today and tomorrow consider essential. Whether you're new to the conversation of mental health or intimately familiar with its complexities, Waller's book has something for you. I can't wait for you to read this."
