A simple approach to Freud - A guide to explaining Sigmund Freud's discoveries and the principles of depth psychology in a simple way

Stefano Calicchio

Summary

What are the foundations of psychoanalysis? What were the ideas and discoveries at the basis of this discipline? How did Freud manage to discover the principles of the functioning of the human mind?

This book was created with the idea of offering the reader a clear and simple perspective on the discoveries that led to the birth of depth psychology. Inside you will discover the principles of psychodynamic theory. From the birth of depth psychology to the first clinical findings related to the use of hypnosis, and on to the unconscious psychic mechanisms that regulate people's lives. The method of investigation used by Freud to connect the different psychic layers present in the individual will also be illustrated. The reader will thus be able to follow a path of discovery that will not only enable him to better understand the subject, but also to question himself and the basic postulates that regulate psychic life.

About Getting to Yes by Roger Fisher and William Ury 
 If you plan to ask for a raise, negotiate for more flexibility at work, put together a business deal, or find a solution to an ongoing source of conflict with your spouse in the future, Getting to Yes is a book you should read. Getting to Yes gives you a start-to-finish system for “principled negotiation” Principled negotiation is a methodology where parties work together to address their mutual interests with creative, fair solutions. According to the book’s authors, Roger Fisher and William Ury, principled negotiation is the complete opposite of our conventional image of negotiation: two parties stubbornly engaged in a battle of will, each laser-focused on his or her own interests at the expense of the other’s interests.  
Getting to Yes provides a framework to allow you to achieve a good outcome for both sides, beginning with teaching you how to determine whether to negotiate at all and what you should consider a positive outcome. By listening carefully to each other, treating each other with fairness, and exploring options together, negotiators can get to yes in ways that reduce the need to rely on hard-bargaining and needless concessions.
