BRUNER, D.R.

Actual Minds, Possible Worlds (the Jerusalem-Harvard Lectures)

cover, Harvard University Press. 1986. (ISBN: 9780674003668). Paperback, 6.1 x 9.2 x 0.6 cm. Condition good. ref ZKVQ Offers a psychological approach to literature, examines the connection between language and reality, and discusses education and intellectual development. Review A brilliant synthesis of contemporary anthropology, sociology, literary theory, and philosophy as well as psychology. -- Michael Stern San Francisco Chronicle This delightful volume invites the reader into dialogue with one of the most imaginative, articulate, and broadly sophisticated scholars of the present era. Bruner..draws on his wealth of knowledge in psychology, linguistics, literary theory, and other domains to weave a rich tapestry of interrelated themes. The essays treat such topics as narrative thought, transactional theory of child development, constructivism, education, and literary criticism. What will surely be the most controversial proposal of the volume is that the human mind is equipped with two modes of cognitive processing, the one paradigmatic (designed to develop propositions subject to empirical test) and the other narrative (designed to comprehend and develop stories). The essays themselves are finely honed narratives, engaging and personal. -- K. J. Gergen Choice It is perhaps possible to describe Bruner as being an intellectual by inclination, a cognitive psychologist eminent in his trade and an ardent academic who has spent his life questing for problems to solve and questions to pose. Actual Minds, Possible Worlds reflects all these interests and approaches as he debates how we create reality, possible worlds from actual minds. It is a book that raises many important problems and pertinent questions..[and] these essays will provide the reader with a stimulating journey..Bruner, as well as being an eclectic intellectual, is an indefatigable psychologist with many facets to his lifetime involvement in exploring the mind..[He] has a prose style that is elegant, professional and delightful..For those interested in liberal approaches to the development of mind and the mind's creative capacity for constructing imaginative acts it provides a provocative and stimulating discussion. -- Margaret Martlew British Journal of Psychology Remarkably ambitious..[Bruner] necessarily takes cognitive psychology into the realms of philosophy, narrative, and literary theory, and to the largest questions about knowledge and mind..Admirable and moving. -- Nancy Mergler and Ronald Schleifer, Modern Language Notes The human mind is everywhere at work, in daily life, in myth, in art, in science, in politics, showing a diversity and depth that cannot be reproduced in laboratory experiments. In order to get a comprehensive picture, the rigorous but narrow experimental approach must be supplemented by the breadth of the humanistic disciplines. This is what Bruner argues and what he exemplifies in Actual Minds, Possible Worlds. -- Dan Sperber Times Literary Supplement Bruner has combined his own academic gregariousness with a drive to fit his work into the canon of current Western thought.. The mysteries of structuralism, deconstruction and pragmatism are unraveled here in the light of Bruner's lifelong efforts to make sense of the way we make sense of things..He makes culture here like a master. -- Christina Robb Boston Globe About the Author Jerome Bruner is University Professor at New York University and the author of many books, including Acts of Meaning; On Knowing; The Process of Education; and Toward a Theory of Instruction (all published by Harvard).

Working with Anger

yellow, Snow Lion Publications. 2001. (ISBN: 9781559391634). Paperback, 15.2 x 1.3 x 22.9 cm. Condition good, clean. Anger plagues all of us on a personal, national, and international level. Yet we see people, such as the Dalai Lama, who have faced circumstances far worse than many of us have faced--including exile, persecution, and the loss of many loved ones--but who do not burn with rage or seek revenge. How do they do it? Working with Anger presents a variety of Buddhist methods for subduing and preventing anger not by changing what is happening, but by framing it differently. No matter what our religion, learning to work with our anger is effective for everyone seeking personal happiness as well as world peace. Working with Anger was chosen for a Spirituality and Health Magazine Award as one of the Best Spiritual Books of 2001. Good.

CHURCHLAND

Matter and Consciousness: Contemporary Introduction to the Philosophy of Mind (Bradford Books)

cream, MIT Press. 1988. (ISBN: 9780262530743). Paperback, 14.5 x 1.3 x 22.6 cm. Our copy published 1997. ref ZKVQ clean. In Matter and Consciousness, Paul Churchland clearly presents the advantages and disadvantages of such difficult issues in philosophy of mind as behaviorism, reductive materialism, functionalism, and eliminative materialism. This new edition incorporates the striking developments that have taken place in neuroscience, cognitive science, and artificial intelligence and notes their expanding relevance to philosophical issues. Churchland organizes and clarifies the new theoretical and experimental results of the natural sciences for a wider philosophical audience, observing that this research bears directly on questions concerning the basic elements of cognitive activity and their implementation in real physical systems. (How is it, he asks, that living creatures perform some cognitive tasks so swiftly and easily, where computers do them only badly or not at all?) Most significant for philosophy, Churchland asserts, is the support these results tend to give to the reductive and the eliminative versions of materialism. A Bradford Book Review "Anyone interested in using a contemporary approach to philosophy of mind in an introductory course will find Paul Churchland's Matter and Consciousness a useful text.. Churchland has a wonderful talent for linking ideas together." Kathleen Gill, Teaching Philosophy About the Author Paul M. Churchland is Emeritus Professor of Philosophy at the University of California, San Diego. He is the author of The Engine of Reason, the Seat of the Soul, Matter and Consciousness: A Contemporary Introduction to the Philosophy of Mind (both published by the MIT Press), and other books.

CORE, CHRISTINE

Angelic Reiki: The Healing for Our Time, Archangel Metatron

As cover, Balboa Press. 2012. (ISBN: 9781452503318). Hardcover, 15.2 x 1.4 x 22.9 cm. Condition good, clean. This is a long awaited book. It always seemed that it was Kevin's task to write it. He was the mouth piece for the Archangel Metatron and the Ascended Master Djwhal Khul. Kevin left the incarnation in June 2009 without starting. The words you are now holding in your hand are a gift from Spirit; from Kevin, Metatron and Djwhal Khul. In this book there are not just words but through it flows healing and inspiration. It includes channellings, meditations, mini processes and an Archangelic Horoscopes. Some of the ideas may be new and challenging. It is my prayer that it informs, inspires and above all revolutionise the way Healing, Health and The Angelic Kingdom are viewed. Christine Core. Good.
