Maria Konjoekova’s Zo gaat dat in Rusland, of hoe te leven tussen Russen is niet alleen een grappige, vol zelfspot geschreven handleiding voor het dagelijks leven in Rusland, het is ook een scherpzinnige en praktische gids voor het doorgronden van een land en van mensen die we vandaag de dag overal ter wereld kunnen tegenkomen. Waar komen onze meningen en vooroordelen eigenlijk vandaan? De schrijfster onderzoekt de culturele eigenaardigheden, waarvan het Russische leven doortrokken is, en geeft ook een verklaring voor de stortvloed aan ongebreidelde Russische emoties in alle mogelijke situaties. Zo rekent ze moeiteloos af met de vele misvattingen die er over de Russen bestaan en kweekt op humoristische wijze begrip voor hun, in Westerse ogen, soms onbegrijpelijke gedrag. Konjoekova wil met haar boek preken noch bekeren, ze beoogt daarentegen een brutaal, maar liefdevol inkijkje te geven in de Russische ziel. Eigenlijk is haar boek een minihandleiding voor de mens in het algemeen.

Once upon a time a great and powerful King married a lovely Princess. No couple were ever so happy; but before their honeymoon was over they were forced to part, for the King had to go on a warlike expedition to a far country, and leave his young wife alone at home. Bitter were the tears she shed, while her husband sought in vain to soothe her with words of comfort and counsel, warning her, above all things, never to leave the castle...

The following pages contain certain rules and suggestions concerning health, and certain simple and sensible ways in which it may, we hope, be acquired and maintained at a very small expense of time and self-denial, by a large number of people who are naturally accustomed to feel not very well. The book is founded on notes made by its two authors who, though they lead for the most part very different lives, are agreed on certain broad principles of health herein set forth. ??One of them, for instance, eats largely of flesh-foods every day, the other has scarcely touched meat for years. But both are accustomed to feel extremely well and to undertake considerable exertion either of mind or body without experiencing any fatigue. One of them takes regular exercise, that is to say he plays an out-door game on most days of his life, while the other who abstains from flesh-foods has little practice of the sort. He will take no out-of-door exercise for several days, work very hard, and find himself perfectly fit for some severe physical test at the end. But they are both agreed that if the one abandoned flesh-foods (which he does not propose to do) he would cease to require regular exercise, and that if the other took flesh-foods (which he does not propose to do) he would not only be very ill, but would also require regular exercise. ??One again is seldom seen without some appliance of tobacco in his mouth, because he finds it agreeable and after an experiment of abstinence from it found that it did not make any difference, as far as he could make out, in his general health. The other never smokes at all. One again takes a cold bath in the morning, the other a hot one followed by cold sponging.??But both are absolutely in accord on far more main points than those on which their practice, at any rate, differs, and they have found it perfectly easy to write this book together without wrangling, on which account they wish to express a pious hope that the very fact that they differ in so many things may have saved them from dogmatism. For it has helped them to realize that even when they are agreed on any point it would be a sheer stupidity to hint that they were therefore right, and in consequence they only put forward the points on which they are agreed as suggestions, hoping that others after trial may also agree with them. ??For universal laws on an empirical matter like health are rare, and the constitutions of men are various. One man’s meat, in fact, is literally another man’s poison. But in the main the two authors are agreed. They believe that the majority of mankind habitually eat too much and habitually take too much stimulating food and drink. They believe also that most people who do so do not take enough exercise, and that either an increase of exercise or a decrease of stimulant is needed. ??They believe that the best sorts of exercise are not those of slow pushing movements such as are made in the use of dumb-bells, but full brisk extended movements, with much use of the breathing apparatus and the large muscle areas of the body. Similarly they are in accord as regards present systems of training which tend to treat an entire crew or team as if they were identical specimens, not as widely different specimens; in every day life also they hold that because a certain mode of diet and work suits A, it will not necessarily suit B and C, though B and C might do worse than try it.

David Ames Wells (1828-1898), a prominent American financial economist, political activist and apostle of laissez faire, was a staunch advocate of free trade and the abolition of the tariff. "Wells wrote a large number of books, pamphlets, and articles ...His chief interests were the tariff, the theory of money and the currency question, and taxation. His discussion of all of these took character from his inspection of American economic life, which was marked in his period by progressive lowering of costs of production through the application of science.He, more than others, was the expositor of the nature and consequences of the 'machine age' ... Some of his most effective writing was in opposition to fiat money or depreciated monetary standards.An excellent example of his work in this field is his "ROBINSON CRUSOE'S MONEY", issued first in 1876 when resumption was in doubt, and again in 1896 when the 'free silver' advocacy was in full swing. Wells was among the earliest to appreciate the importance of what has since been known as 'technological unemployment,' the displacing of men by machines ...His writing and speaking was marked by simplicity, candor, and extraordinary facility in the popular adaptation of statistics. His aptness in illustration was as charming as it was effective ..."

It is an acknowledged fact that we perceive errors in the work of others more readily than in our own.?—Leonardo da Vinci??In this Beginner's Psychology I have tried to write, as nearly as might be, the kind of book that I should have found useful when I was beginning my own study of psychology. That was nearly thirty years ago; and I read Bain, and the Mills, and Spencer, and Rabier, and as much of Wundt as a struggling acquaintance with German would allow. Curiously enough, it was a paragraph in James Mill, most unpsychological of psychologists, that set me on the introspective track,—though many years had to pass before I properly understood what had put him off it. ??A book like this would have saved me a great deal of labour and vexation of spirit. Nowadays, of course, there are many introductions to psychology, and the beginner has a whole library of text-books to choose from. Still, they are of varying merit; and, what is perhaps more important, their temperamental appeal is diverse.?I do not find it easy to relate this new book to the older Primer,—which will not be further revised. There is change all through; every paragraph has been rewritten. ??The greatest change is, however, a shift of attitude; I now lay less stress than I did upon knowledge and more upon point of view. The beginner in any science is oppressed and sometimes disheartened by the amount he has to learn; so many men have written, and so many are writing; the books say such different things, and the magazine articles are so upsetting!

Trec?nd dincolo de simpla nara?iune a acestora, cartea de fa?? ne dezv?luie, printr-o fin? analiz? psihologic?, aspectele, motiva?iile, ra?iunile interioare ale ho?iei, acelea care scap? adesea privirii moralizatoare, precum ?i ?n?elesurile ascunse ale pandantului s?u, pierderea.Ho?ul interior este o lectur? util? ?i ?n acela?i timp pl?cut? pentru psihologi, psihoterapeu?i, asisten?i sociali, avoca?i ?i, totodat?, pentru to?i aceia care doresc s? ?n?eleag? ra?iunile ascunse ale comportamentelor respinse, ?n general, de societate.?Un mit esen?ial despre ho?ie este povestea L?nii de Aur.

Viitoarea sa so?ie, Medeea, ??i ucide mai t?rziu copiii f?cu?i cu Iason, pentru a evita ru?inea pierderii statutului ei ?i pentru a-?i afirma propria idee de justi?ie ?n fa?a nedrept??ii lui Iason, pe care ea o resimte ca pe o priva?iune. ?ns? lunga lor poveste mai con?ine ?i o alt? ?ntrebare: c?nd ho?ia opre?te brutal procesul de individuare?“ – Robert TyminskiSt?team ?n cabinetul meu de la ?coal?, c?nd a intrat o profesoar? ?i mi-a spus: ?A f?cut-o din nou.?

Medicamentul cel mai des folosit ?n medicina general? este medicul ?nsu?i; altfel spus, nu doar flaconul sau cutia cu medicamente conteaz?, ci maniera ?n care acestea sunt prescrise pacientului – de fapt, ansamblul atmosferei ?n care medicamentul este dat ?i luat. ?n cartea de fa??, Michael Balint descrie diferite procese incon?tiente ce intervin ?n rela?ia medic-pacient, aspecte care pot favoriza vindecarea, sau pot duce la tensiuni, nepl?ceri ?i tratamente lipsite de rezultatul benefic a?teptat. Dac? rela?ia stabilit? ?ntre specialist ?i client poate fi un obstacol ?n calea bunei desf??ur?ri a activit??ii, atunci unul dintre modurile ?n care rezultatele profesionale pot fi ?mbun?t??ite este supervizarea centrat? pe reac?iile emo?ionale ale medicului fa?? de pacien?ii s?i. ?n?elegerea acestor reac?ii poate oferi date importante despre pacient, pe care specialistul s? le poat? folosi mai departe ?n evaluarea cazului ?i ?n stabilirea unei interven?ii eficiente. Numeroase exemple clinice ilustreaz? dinamica incon?tient? a rela?iei terapeutice, precum ?i modul ?n care se desf??oar? grupurile Balint pentru medici.

Un tat? î?i reneag? fiica atunci când aceasta se m?rit? cu un b?rbat de alt? religie — s? fie convingerile sale religioase mai puternice decât dragostea fa?? de propriul copil? Povestirile din aceast? carte ne deschid o fereastr? nu numai spre lumea l?untric? a protagoni?tilor ?i spre ceea ce se petrece într-un cabinet de psihanaliz?, ci ?i spre propria noastr? via??, ce poate purta, la rândul ei, sensuri ascunse.
