Summary

In "Three Contributions to the Theory of Sex," Sigmund Freud presents a groundbreaking exploration of human sexuality, which he deftly weaves into his broader psychoanalytic theories. This seminal work delves into the complexities of sexual identity, desire, and the developmental stages of human sexuality, challenging prevailing notions of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Freud's literary style is both rigorous and provocative, employing a combination of clinical case studies, theoretical discourse, and philosophical musings, all while grounding his arguments in the emerging field of psychoanalysis. The book stands as a pivotal moment in the literary context of sexual discourse and the psychology of the human mind, reshaping societal views on sexuality and its implications for mental health. Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, was profoundly influenced by the cultural and intellectual milieu of his time, marked by rapid advances in science, philosophy, and the arts. His clinical practice, coupled with his own introspective examinations, prompted a re-evaluation of the role of sex in human behavior and identity. Struggling against societal taboos, Freud's inquiry into sexuality reveals the intricate interplay between the unconscious mind and social norms, driving his desire to shed light on the often-ignored aspects of human experience. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the foundations of psychoanalytic thought and the evolution of sexual theory. Freud's insights remain relevant today, offering profound understandings that resonate within contemporary debates on sexuality, identity, and mental health. Readers will find themselves challenged and enriched as they engage with Freud's compelling arguments and pioneering perspective.

    In Modernizing Medicare, editors Robert Emmet Moffit and Marie Fishpaw bring together a rare combination of leading scholars and policy practitioners to outline a vision for Medicare reform and provide solutions for the millions of seniors whose health care depends on it. Contributors include a  
former Medicare trustee, a former Medicare administrator, and a former director of the Congressional Budget Office. 
 
Detailing Medicare’s biggest problems, this team of top policy experts offers solutions based on personal freedom of choice, transparency of price and performance, and market competition among health plans and providers that will secure patients more affordable, more accountable, and higher quality medical  
care. They also address Medicare’s reform needs and analyze the promising performance of the Medicare Advantage program. Contributors outline Medicare’s major financial problems and the best solutions for Medicare patients and taxpayers alike. While Medicare’s accelerating spending is generating higher  
deficits and debt, standard cost-control strategies—such as payment reductions and price controls—jeopardize patients’ access to high-quality care.

    The Global Vipassana Pagoda in Mumbai was built to mark the birth centenary year of Sayagyi U Ba Khin, the Burmese Dhamma teacher of S.N. Goenka. The monument is built in the Myanmar style of the Shwedagon pagoda, as a token of gratitude to that country where the essence of the Buddha’s teachings was maintained in its pristine purity, and from where it is now spreading throughout India, and via India to the rest of the world. Mr. S.N. Goenka became the vehicle to make this happen and was the inspiring guide for every important aspect of this building project. Tremendous volition and effort went into the building of this staggering monument, and it is interesting and educative to explore the journey. Mr. Bikram Dandiya has beautifully chronicled some of these experiences in this booklet, The Jewel in Mumbai, the story of the making of the crystal bud atop the Global Vipassana Pagoda.
