Summary

Feelings are something we have, not something we are.' 
Revealing the complexity of emotions such as happiness, anger, fear, and jealousy, and how these are based on our perception of other people, Ilse Sand offers her professional wisdom on the psychology of feelings. Establishing that emotions are not always as appropriate as they first appear to be, the book encourages you to take a closer look at why you are feeling certain things, and how you can change how you feel. Especially written for highly sensitive people, guidance is included on how to identify the vulnerable feelings that often underlie our more volatile emotional states, and practical activities are suggested to help to embrace or reject sadness, delay impulsive actions, and allow yourself to be happy. Drawing on real-life examples throughout, the book offers you the means to improve your understanding of not only your own emotions and emotional actions, but those of others. The book will be immensely useful not only to people who feel things strongly, but to those who have trouble understanding or interpreting emotions and how to respond to the feelings they provoke.
Available since: 09/21/2016.

    The demand for highly qualified professionals with practical vocational education and training is increasing worldwide. However, many countries do not have a vocational education and training system comparable to the scheme in Switzerland. Vocational education and training is usually provided in schools, which seldom work together with local industry. Otherwise, it is implemented in individual companies and aligned to the specific needs of those organisations only. Generic, academic and soft skills are rarely provided.
This book describes the Swiss Vocational Education and Training Initiative India, its background, concept and results. The initiative is a response to the requirements of Swiss companies in India, which can only fully exploit their growth potential when they can employ better qualified personnel. A fascinating role concept for implementing the dual vocational education and training system in India was designed, implemented and evaluated together with the participating organisations, regional vocational education and training schools, coordinating organisations and the authorities. The results are very promising for expansion to other regions and occupations. The book also highlights the obstacles that must be overcome in such a project.

  • From Carl Gustav Jung’s Archetypes Of The Collective Unconscious To Individual Archetypal Patterns - cover

    From Carl Gustav Jung’s...

    All suppositions presented in this lecture have brought us to a better understanding of contents of the unconscious sphere of human psyche. Even if we were to accept Jung's theory of "dividing human psyche," we think it would be one’s personal unconscious, which contains very definite individual structure or system meant to define his personal psychological and physiological characteristics because the unconscious sphere of psyche directly controls many physiological reactions. Personal unconscious should be able to tell everything of one's personality by examining it not through collective values, but in the light of its individual archetypes. It should be able to explain everything about a person with respect to his individual perception of the world and of himself, his purpose, his behavior both in social and natural environments, his strategies and tactics, his way of thinking, his unconscious motivations, his needs, emotions, inclinations, preferences, meaning of his existence, etc. 
After reviewing both our practical and theoretical research, and focusing on Jung's theory as to the influence of the collective unconscious on individual human psyche, it would be essential to examine this issue from the standpoint of psychology of individual distinctions. It is obvious that without finding individual archetypal patterns as the basis for human personality, solving any individual or social-collective problems would not be possible since any society consists of individuals, who constantly affect one another.

    In Praise of Folly, also translated as The Praise of Folly, is an essay written in Latin in 1509 by Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam and first printed in June 1511. Inspired by previous works of the Italian humanist Faustino Perisauli De Triumpho Stultitiae, it is a satirical attack on superstitions, other traditions of European society and on the Western Church.Erasmus revised and extended his work, which was originally written in the space of a week while sojourning with Sir Thomas More at More's house in Bucklersbury in the City of London. The title Moriae Encomium had a punning second meaning as In Praise of More. In Praise of Folly is considered one of the most notable works of the Renaissance and played an important role in the beginnings of the Protestant Reformation.
