On dreams

Sigmund Freud

Casa editrice: Good Press

Sinossi

In "On Dreams," Sigmund Freud embarks on a groundbreaking exploration of the unconscious mind, shedding light on the enigmatic world of dreams. Written in a lucid and accessible style, Freud introduces his revolutionary theory of dream interpretation, presenting dreams as a manifestation of repressed desires and unfulfilled wishes. The book's structure combines clinical case studies and theoretical discourse, situating Freud's work within the burgeoning field of psychoanalysis at the turn of the 20th century. His meticulous dissection of the dream mechanism and the significance of symbols places this work at the forefront of psychological literature, influencing not only psychiatry but also art and culture. Sigmund Freud, born in 1856 in the Austrian Empire, was a neurologist whose pioneering work laid the foundation for modern psychology. His own dreams and introspective reflections significantly informed his theories, leading him to delve deep into the human psyche. This personal connection to his subject matter enhances the authenticity of his analysis and invites readers into a compelling dialogue with their own subconscious. "On Dreams" is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the intricate layers of the human mind. Whether you are a student of psychology or a curious reader, Freud's insights into the workings of dreams will challenge your perceptions and expand your understanding of the self.

The Good Fight

Shirley Chisholm

The revered civil rights activist and pioneering member of Congress chronicles her groundbreaking 1972 run for President as the first woman and person of color—a work of immense historical importance that both captures and transcends its times, newly reissued to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of her campaign.
“Shirley Chisholm created a path for me and for so many others. Today, I'm thinking about her inspirational words: 'I am, and always will be a catalyst for change.'” —Kamala Harris
Before Kamala Harris, before Hillary Rodham Clinton there was Shirley Chisholm. In 1972, the Congresswoman from New York—the first Black woman elected to Congress—made history again when she announced her candidacy for President of the United States. Though she understood victory was a longshot, Chisholm chose to run “because someone had to do it first. . . . I ran because most people think the country is not ready for a black candidate, not ready for a woman candidate.”
In this invaluable political memoir, Chisholm reflects on her unique campaign and a nation at the crossroads of change. With the striking candor and straightforward style for which she was famous, Chisholm reveals the essential wheeling and dealing inherent to campaigning, castigates the innate conservatism and piety of the Black majority of the period, decries identity politics that lead to destructive power struggles within a fractious Democratic Party, and offers prescient advice on the direction of Black politics. From the whirlwind of the primaries to the final dramatic maneuvering at the tumultuous 1972 Democratic National Convention, The Good Fight is an invaluable portrait of twentieth-century politics and a Democratic Party in flux.
Most importantly, The Good Fight is the portrait of a reformer who dedicated her life to making politics work for all Americans. Chisholm saw her campaign as an extension of her political commitment; she ran as an idealist grounded in reality who used her opportunity and position to give voice to all the forgotten. This book bears the stamp of her remarkable personality and her commitment to speaking truth no matter the consequences.
“Shirley Chisholm's fearless determination has been an inspiration to so many of us.” —Regina King

21 LESSONS FOR THE 21ST CENTURY...

Yuval Noah Harari

The central thread of this thought-provoking book revolves around the challenge of maintaining both our collective and individual focus amid the constant and disorienting changes we are experiencing. Are we still capable of understanding the world we’ve created? 
In 21 Lessons for the 21st Century, Yuval Noah Harari analyzes the current and future challenges facing humanity. Unlike Sapiens, which focuses on the history of humankind, and Homo Deus, which speculates about the distant future, this book addresses the immediate present. Harari explores how technology, artificial intelligence, global politics, and human identity are evolving in the 21st century. 
He argues that traditional narratives that once guided humanity—such as liberalism, religion, and nationalism—are being undermined by technological acceleration and globalization. 
Harari offers a call for reflection in an uncertain world. Rather than seeking answers in traditional ideologies, humanity must cultivate a flexible mindset, promote global cooperation, and remain open to change.

American Presidents: Behind the...

One Day University

Learn from four remarkable professors in a set of One Day University presentations on the great American Presidents. The framers of the Constitution were in uncharted territory when they created the office of the presidency. No one at that time had a clear vision of what the president of a national republic would do, and only the vaguest notion existed when George Washington took the oath in 1789. For nearly 250 years, our elected Presidents have played a role in shaping what the office has become. Thomas Jefferson described the presidency as a “splendid misery,” John Quincy Adams felt it was “harassing,” and Warren Harding said simply “It’s hell!" And yet somehow some of our most notable Presidents left office with remarkable accomplishments.
