  "This book is must [listening] . . . although it will at times shock and perhaps even offend the sensibilities of traditional therapists." —American Journal of Psychiatry 
   
   
   
  This book brings together Erich Fromm's basic statements on the application of psychoanalytic theory to social dynamics. At the same time, it offers an image of man consonant with the hopes of radical humanism. 
   
   
   
  The Crisis of Psychoanalysis is a collection of nine brilliant essays. Although his work is deeply rooted in Freudian theory, Fromm further develops Freud's doctrines by including both social and ethical dimensions, and applies his discoveries and insights to address the problems we face in society at large.

  A dialogue between Socrates and Meno probes the subject of ethics. Can goodness be taught? If it can, then we should be able to find teachers capable of instructing others about what is good and bad, right and wrong, or just and unjust. Socrates and Meno are unable to identify teachers of ethics, and we are left wondering how such knowledge could be acquired.
   
  To answer that puzzle, Socrates questions one of Meno’s servants in an attempt to show that we know fundamental ideas by recollecting them.

  Emotional Manipulation -...

  Cito Harder

  Emotional manipulation is a powerful yet often subtle form of influence that shapes human interactions in profound ways. It involves deliberately using emotions to control, persuade, or exploit others to achieve a personal objective. Unlike healthy influence, which fosters mutual understanding and respect, manipulation is often deceptive, one-sided, and aimed at serving the manipulator’s interests at the expense of the other person. While some forms of emotional influence can be harmless or even beneficial, manipulation crosses ethical boundaries when it distorts reality, erodes autonomy, and undermines personal well-being. 
  The impact of emotional manipulation can be significant, affecting individuals on both psychological and emotional levels. Victims of manipulation may experience self-doubt, confusion, guilt, and anxiety, often questioning their own perceptions and emotions. Manipulators, on the other hand, gain a sense of power and control, using tactics such as guilt-tripping, gaslighting, and passive-aggressiveness to achieve their desired outcomes. This dynamic is common in personal relationships, workplaces, and even society at large, where emotional influence is used to sway public opinion and reinforce social hierarchies. 
  One of the most challenging aspects of emotional manipulation is its subtle nature. Unlike overt forms of coercion or aggression, manipulation often operates under the surface, making it difficult to recognize until significant damage has been done. It may appear as concern, affection, or logical reasoning, but beneath the surface, it is designed to control another person’s emotions and decisions. In romantic relationships, this can manifest as excessive flattery followed by emotional withdrawal, creating a cycle of dependency. In the workplace, manipulative bosses or colleagues may use subtle guilt or praise to extract extra work without reciprocation.

  Enfleshing Freedom - Body Race...

  M. Shawn Copeland

  The achievement of our humanity comes about only through immersion in concrete, visceral, embodied relational experience, yet for many human beings, that achievement is stamped by the struggle against oppression in history, society, and religion. In this incisive and important work, distinguished theologian M. Shawn Copeland demonstrates with rare insight and conviction how Black women's historical experience and oppression cast a completely different light on our theological ideas about being human. Copeland argues that race, embodiment, and relations of power reframe not only theological anthropology but also our notions of discipleship, church, Eucharist, and Christ. Enfleshing Freedom is a work of deep moral seriousness, rigorous speculative skill, and sharp theological reasoning. This new edition incorporates recent theological, philosophical, historical, political, and sociological scholarship; engages with current social movements like #BlackLivesMatter and #MeToo; and presents a new chapter on the body.
