Arguing for a need to modify investigatory and legal processes so that they align with the capabilities of witnesses and reflect the memorial and decision processes that inform recognition judgements, this book examines two radical alternative approaches to lineup-based recognition that do not require witnesses to identify a perpetrator: Non-categorical confidence and non-categorical similarity judgements.Using empirical data, the authors explore the relationship between identification decisions, confidence judgements, and similarity judgements in lineup-based recognition tasks and reflect on whether similarity underpins more complex judgements of identity and confidence. They also examine the practical utility of confidence and similarity judgements and consider how such alternatives might be conceptualised in a legal context. This book draws on the areas of psychology and law to outline the key issues of identification and calls for a revision in how we think about, obtain, and present eyewitness evidence from lineups.Prompting a consideration of new solutions and concepts to help witness errors become a problem of the past, The Psychology of Eyewitness Identification will be of great interest to students, scholars, and practitioners across the fields of criminal justice, psychology, and law, and particularly those with a focus on eyewitness identification.

Transforming Relationships in Forensic Psychological Practice is, first and foremost a clinicians' guide: it has been written with the aim of supporting people to develop, maintain and repair relationships within their work as forensic practitioners.Research repeatedly finds that client perception of the therapeutic relationship is a significant factor in treatment success; however, data suggests that forensic psychologists have a poor history of trust and engagement with people in prisons. Tackling this issue head-on, this book explores key factors in working relationships across a broad range of forensic client groups, settings and tasks and reflects on specific points of tension in forensic therapeutic relationships. Drawing on the expertise of a diverse range of authors, it unpicks the challenges in building such relationships and explores factors such as neurodiversity, extremism, professional boundaries and working effectively with women and children. It outlines how productive working relationships can be developed and maintained, and highlights the essential constituent parts of that process, using both a theoretical and experiential lens. Finally, the book identifies and discusses examples of good practice from both practitioner and, in places, service participant perspectives.Guiding practitioners to find respectful and connected solutions, whilst maintaining safety and appropriate professional and personal boundaries, Transforming Relationships in Forensic Psychological Practice is an essential resource for all professionals working in forensic settings, both qualified and in training.

This work pioneers the concept of "cultural self-awareness" in social psychology by moving beyond "WEIRD psychology" to examine the psychological transformations of Chinese society during rapid modernization. The book accomplishes this through unique studies on symbolic boundaries, policy processes, and mentality maps.Focusing on the intersection of social psychology and religious studies, the book explores cultural awareness and identity in the context of modern pressures. Through compelling case studies, particularly those involving social identity events and diverse religious groups, it reveals the complexities of contemporary China. Integrating sociological perspectives and theoretical exploration within transitional psychology, the book demonstrates how social psychology provides vital tools for understanding behavior in transitional societies. While deeply rooted in the Chinese experience, its innovative concepts and methodologies offer universally relevant insights for interpreting similar global dynamics.This book is essential reading for students and scholars of social psychology, cultural studies, sociology, and religious studies, as well as for professionals interested in China or societal transitions. Its accessible approach also benefits librarians, publishers, and policymakers seeking profound analyses of modern societal change.

In this fascinating new book, John Boyle provides an in-depth account of the neglected contributions made by Western esotericism in the formation of an occluded 'psychoanalytic parapsychology' active within psychoanalysis since its inception, the distinguishing features of which he argues have continued to persist within psychoanalysis to this day.The book provides a conceptual framework for understanding how the debates between Sigmund Freud, Sandor Ferenczi and Carl Gustav Jung on the role of the 'occult' in psychoanalysis contributed to the formation of an 'Orphic fragmentation' within psychoanalysis. It argues that the ensuing consequences of these discussions were covertly transmitted to later generations of psychoanalysts in the form of an 'Orphic trajectory' encrypted within the main body of psychoanalytic theory and practice.This book offers new and original insights into the role played by heterodox forms of spirituality in the development of psychoanalysis. It will interest scholars of psychoanalysis and religion as well as those with a general interest in the role of the spiritual in contemporary psychoanalysis and psychology.

Friendship is a critically important aspect of our lives, but is it always an unassailably 'good thing'? This book begins with the innovative premise that friendship is inherently complex and characterized by opposing qualities: it is both pleasurable and fraught, private and public, and inclusive and exclusionary. Rather than simply celebrating friendship as universally beneficial or worrying about its decline amid rising social disconnection, Laura Eramian and Peter Mallory offer a comprehensive conceptualization of 'critical friendship' across its diverse meanings. Drawing on contemporary insights and cross-cultural examples from interdisciplinary contributors, the chapters examine the ambivalence of friendship, its entanglements with other relations or institutions, the quest for selfhood and recognition, and how friendship finds meaning across private and public life. Through an empirically rich evaluation of the multiple ways that friendship is practiced, valued, or interpreted, this volume advances critical debates on friendship across social psychology, anthropology, sociology and beyond.

Paths of Symbolization explores philosophical and psychoanalytic questions about the concept of symbolization.Alain Gibeault connects symbolization with concepts like enactment and the practice of imaginative play. With reference to Freud's metapsychology and the French context specifically, Gibeault explores the significance of symbolization in analytic work. This book explores the theoretical questions raised by the concept of symbolization in the history of psychoanalytic thought and clarifies what is at stake when symbolization is impaired-particularly in the treatment of psychotic, borderline, and neurotic states. Through a wealth of clinical material, the author illustrates how symbolization mediates between inner and outer realities, enabling the emergence of thought, representation, and transformation. By comparing these cases, readers are invited to grasp the specific therapeutic contributions of French psychoanalysis in fostering psychic integration and the working through of unconscious conflict.Paths of Symbolization will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training, particularly those looking to better understand theoretical, clinical and technical aspects of French psychoanalysis. It will also be relevant for academics and scholars of psychoanalytic studies, other areas of mental health and philosophy.

How can a particular way of argumenting direct our thinking? How does the formulation of a question influence the answer, producing a bias or an insight? And finally, what effect does public communication have on public behaviour?Psychorhetoric and the Psychology of Thought illustrates the role played by rhetoric and communicative heuristics in the psychology of thinking and decision-making, and its effect on many areas of our daily life. It gives voice to a new and unconventional approach to the contemporary debate within the psychology of thought that has wide implications for key behavioural phenomena, including biases, creativity, decision making and public policy. This innovative work challenges conventional wisdom by proposing that cognitive biases are not inherent flaws in human cognition but rather outcomes of misleading communication patterns that influence our thinking processes.This unconventional approach to the psychology of thought has significant implications for creativity, decision-making, economic behaviour, and public policy development. Essential reading for students and researchers in cognitive psychology, communication studies, and behavioural economics, this volume promises to reshape our understanding of human rationality and the communicative forces that guide it.

The Defenses in Psychoanalysis explores the nature and assessment of defense mechanisms through an integration of psychoanalytic theory and empirical research in contemporary psychoanalysis.Presented in two parts, the first section offers a comprehensive overview of major psychoanalytic contributions to the understanding of defense, from Freud's foundational ideas to contemporary developments. This section serves as a conceptual foundation for the empirical work that follows and provides a coherent synthesis of key perspectives, aimed especially at readers less familiar with psychoanalytic thinking. The second section presents the development and validation of the Comprehensive Rorschach Defense System (CRDS), a tool developed in collaboration with Carl B. Gacono for coding defense mechanisms in Rorschach protocols. The structure and coding criteria of the CRDS are explained and illustrated with numerous examples, followed by the presentation of data from a validation study supporting its reliability and clinical significance. The book concludes with a clinical chapter demonstrating how the CRDS can be used to deepen psychoanalytic understanding of defensive functioning.The Defenses in Psychoanalysis will be of interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training and to psychologists with psychodynamic training.

For each obstacle, Weinberg provides practical, creative strategies, including methods for reading nonverbal cues, handling technical disruptions, and navigating transference and countertransference when technology becomes part of the analytic matrix. The text also covers multiple formats - individual, couple, and group therapy - and discusses how core psychodynamic processes are preserved and transformed online.Online Psychoanalysis: A Contemporary Introduction is an essential resource for students, trainees, and experienced clinicians eager to understand and master the online therapeutic space.

ISBN 978-0-262-05102-6 hard ¥6,523.- (税込) US$ 29.95

A highly original first anthology on the cultural history of the unconscious that is destined to become definitive. 'Know thyself' the injunction that was once inscribed upon the Temple of Apollo became a touchstone for classical and modern philosophers before being embraced as the end game of psychoanalysis by Freud and his followers. The conceptual baggage that Freud took on his armchair journey into the unconscious mind is well-known and so, too, the more recent science on implicit memory, blindsight and automatic processing but the history of the unconscious beyond the consulting room and laboratory has largely been overlooked. From ancient dream theory to hypnosis, somnambulism to psychedelic mind-expansion, The Unconscious by Antonio Melechi traces the wider social and scientific history of the unconscious mind. It brings together a chorus of voices including Nietzsche, Henri Bergson, Mary Arnold Foster, Swami Vivekananda, and Philip K. Dick, to name only some to investigate the elusive psychology of memory and learning, instinct and imagination, creative breakthrough and mental breakdown. Moving beyond the familiar psychoanalytic framework, the book draws on a rich seam of sources, including case studies, psychological experiments, pulp fiction, urban legend, and commercial hype. Approaching the unconscious as both a product of discovery and invention, the anthology underscores its importance as a perennial source of debate, a tantalizing mirror to our hidden selves, and a powerful master key that continues to influence contemporary thought.

A transformative exploration of a painful emotionBoredom visits all of us at some point. Sometimes it is fleeting. Other times it is deep, lasting, or profound. We even experience it in groups. Boredom can be so intolerable that some are willing to do almost anything just to escape it. In this provocative and eloquently argued book, Josefa Ros Velasco invites us to listen to the voice of boredom, explore the reasons behind it, and allow it to guide our actions and return us to a place of satisfaction.Shedding light on a universal yet misunderstood aspect of the human experience, Ros Velasco shows how boredom is a phenomenon that torments us when reality does not meet our expectations. While it has been described as an illness of the soul and even as a pathological condition, boredom is only a symptom. Its purpose, Ros Velasco argues, is to notify us that our relationship with our surroundings is damaged, and to compel us to identify the root of the problem and address it. Along the way, she explores the cultural and intellectual history of boredom, tracing how philosophers, theologians, literary figures, and clinicians have contended with this unpleasant, sometimes tortuous state of mind.Drawing insights from thinkers ranging from Horace and Augustine to Goethe, Kierkegaard, and Heidegger, The Disease of Boredom explains why boredom as an emotional call to action and advocates for a radical change in how we perceive and deal with tedium.

Solidly grounded in theory and empirical evidence, this book presents a novel methodological framework for fostering Communities of Dialogic Inquiry in primary education called Learning Together. These communities create collaborative networks of distributed cognition among school, university, and local community members to equip "apprentices" with a firm scientific foundation, complemented by a robust humanistic citizenship culture, enabling their participation in socioscientific practices in an informed, critical, responsible and inclusive fashion. Learning Together provides concrete, articulated, and richly illustrated teaching-learning strategies for cultivating these communities in diverse school and community settings. "In this book, the authors make a distinctive, strong and important contribution to our understanding of how education can be made most productive. They draw on a wealth of schools-based research, including their own, to link what is known about the ways humans learn and what can and should happen in classrooms. It should help to promote a more accurate conception of education as a social, cultural, communicative activity, rather than a process whereby teachers simply transmit knowledge to students. I hope it is read by teachers, researchers and others involved in education everywhere". - Neil Mercer, Emeritus Professor of Education, University of Cambridge, UK "For the authors of this fascinating and timely volume, communities of dialogic inquiry have two main aims: fostering skills that support a key human activity (learning for dialogue) and applying those skills in knowledge acquisition (learning through dialogue). The authors ground those aims in a novel yet convincing interpretation of sociocultural theory: the insightful and wide-ranging literature review that underpins their approach will be appreciated by researchers and practitioners alike. At the same time, the volume goes far beyond theory: it concludes with case studies, which indicate in detail how dialogic inquiry can be embedded in classrooms". - Christine Howe, Emeritus Professor, University of Cambridge, UK

Veraksa, Nikolay (ed.), Visual Modelling as Means for Cognitive and Emotional Development of Children: International Perspectives. (Early Childhood Research and Education: An Inter-theoretical Focus 8) 177 pp. 2025:12 (Springer, GW) <758-1121>
ISBN 978-3-032-06245-1 hard ¥40,652.- (税込) EUR 159.99

This book acquaints readers with the principles and the possibilities of using visual models in the education of young children. Educational projects that use visual models as effective psychological tools that allow the child to develop abilities are very limited. Visual models can be used as a means for cognitive development, regulation of behavior, organization of productive activities, and for solving creative problems. The research in the field of cognitive development of preschoolers was greatly influenced by the works of L.S. Vygotsky, J. Piaget, and their followers. L.S. Vygotsky understood the general line of the development of children's consciousness as the transition from social plane to psychological one and related it to the mastering of cultural means, such as visual models. L. A. Venger considered a child's drawing as a visual model of an object; in construction activity, the child creates models of real structures from various blocks. All this served as the necessary basis for the use of visual models in the organization of educational processes in preschool institutions. Visual models can contribute to the enrichment of play activity and the development of thinking, visual-spatial activity, as well as the development of imagination. Studies have also identified the benefits of using visual models in work with children with special needs. This book provides a great resource for students, specialists, practitioners and researchers.

It describes the ways in which these mentors - full-time, paid professionals - specialize in helping youth to build the resilience, skills, and hope that prepares them for prosocial success during emerging adulthood and beyond. The book explores the extensive initial and continuing education and skills training that professional youth mentors receive as well as ongoing supervision and support to bolster their effectiveness with children, their families, and systems (e.g., schools, health care) that they interact with regularly. It addresses the scientific and theoretical rationales and potential benefits of professional mentoring, a program model that differs from the current dominant youth mentoring paradigm (i.e., short-term volunteering). Key areas of coverage include: Detailed descriptions of the most prominent professional youth mentoring programs.Social-ecological models of professional youth mentoring.An intensive case study of a mature professional mentoring program, Friends of the Children.Developing and sustaining professional youth mentoring programs.Perspectives from youth, parents and other caregivers, mentors, and program administrators.Youth mentoring programs around the world. The Handbook of Professional Youth Mentoring is a must-have reference for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as clinicians, therapists, and professionals in developmental, clinical child, and school psychology, child and adolescent psychiatry, social work, pediatrics, public health, juvenile justice, sociology of family and youth, prevention science, and all related disciplines.

Happawana, Keith, The Psychology of Awakening: Integrative Approaches for Improving Mental Health. 231 pp. 2025:12 (Springer, GW) <758-1125>
ISBN 978-3-032-06289-5 hard ¥30,488.- (税込) EUR 119.99

The psychology of awakening is focused on showing ways to improve mental health through the psychological exploration of awakening. Awakening refers to the psychological shift that occurs through the realization of one's nature as ultimate reality, which is beyond name, form, or definition. Awakening can also be thought of as a common point between terms such as enlightenment, nibbana, moksha, the Self, satori, nonduality, merging with the Tao, and the Ground. The book involves coverage of various domains of scientific literatures (especially within neuroscience/psychological sciences), certain practices within spiritual domains, where/how both converge, and pointers towards validating and experientially realizing what is covered in the text. The book is intended to be scientifically/empirically rigorous, aims to demystify certain concepts in a nonspeculative manner, and encourages advancement in how mental health is understood. Awakening is argued to be a legitimate psychologically based phenomenon that is worth further exploration within science because of the profound mental health benefits that are involved. The overall purpose of this book is to provide a sufficient knowledgebase that is grounded in both science and spirituality so that someone who wishes to learn/practice can experientially realize awakening on their own and find freedom from psychological suffering.

Lovett, Benjamin J., Open Science and Socially Responsive Science: Conflicting Movements in Psychology. 61 pp. 2025:11 (Springer, GW) <758-1126>
ISBN 978-3-032-06568-1 hard ¥12,701.- (税込) EUR 49.99

This book is the first to consider the relationships between the Open Science and DEI (social responsiveness) movements in psychology. These two movements sometimes work smoothly together, but are also sometimes in tension. They can differ in their understanding of what science is and how psychology should behave as a science. This volume aims to shed light on the trade-offs inherent in trying to search for truth while promoting social justice. It covers the history and philosophy of these two movements as background for an exploration of the tensions between them. This volume moves beyond the conflict, acknowledging the conflicts but also showing the way toward a unified field of psychology. It will appeal to researchers and students, as well as those who train them. Exploring the relationships between these two movements will be enlightening to scholars as well as practitioners.

This two-volume handbook reimagines the role of emotions, offering transformative insights into their significance for individuals, communities, and societies. Volume 1 combines rigorous theoretical exploration, personal narratives, and cutting-edge research to explore the intricate connections between emotions, human development, and positive psychology. Far beyond the confines of emotional well-being, this volume examines the transformative power of emotions in shaping identities and driving personal and collective growth. Through its comprehensive approach, it paints a vivid picture of the human emotional experience while navigating diverse cultural contexts and intergenerational dynamics. This work challenges conventional approaches by integrating perspectives from various cultural backgrounds and cross-cultural experiences, offering readers a deeper understanding of how emotions influence relationships, decision-making, and societal change. Volume 2 extends the foundational understanding of emotional well-being through the lens of positive psychology into the realms of cultural diversity, societal impacts, and the influence of technology. It offers an in-depth examination of the societal impact of emotions, cultural interpretations, and the emerging significance of digital and robotic interactions with emotions. It encompasses a wide range of topics, including the effects of global crises on emotional well-being, the role of art and literature in understanding emotions, and the future of emotional intelligence in the age of digital technology. Studies featured in this volume provide insight into emotional experiences across diverse cultures, the resilience of immigrants and refugees, and the psychological dynamics of collective behaviour, alongside considerations of how technology is reshaping our emotional lives. Through its synthesis of theory and practice, the handbook invites readers to rethink the emotional dimensions of human experience. It encourages the exploration of new paradigms that highlight the transformative potential of emotions and their ability to shape inclusive and emotionally intelligent communities. This is more than a collection of knowledge-it is a call to action for those who seek to understand and harness the transformative potential of emotions. Whether exploring the role of emotions in culturally diverse and transcultural understanding or their impact on personal growth, the handbook opens new pathways for academic inquiry and practical application, redefining how we perceive and engage with the emotional fabric of our world.

Theory of mind is the capacity for understanding how thoughts and feelings underlie what people say and do. It is the interpretive key that helps people make sense of the social world. Children's language acquisition is the pathway for their participation in the social world. With language, children share thoughts, feelings, and meaning with others. Together, theory of mind and language catalyze the development of social understanding in childhood. This book is about research and theory devoted to understanding how that happens. Research on language and theory of mind spans multiple disciplines and multiple decades. This book organizes and integrates the expansive literature, providing a comprehensive portrait of what we know, and still need to know, about the role of language in children's understanding of the mental world. The authors discuss how children come to talk about the mind, the contributions of caregiver-child conversation to theory of mind development, and the pragmatic skills infants and children need for a meeting of the minds within conversation. Coverage also explores the fundamental relation that theory of mind has with narrative comprehension and engagement with fiction throughout the lifespan. Excerpts from parent-child conversations in each chapter illuminate how the social use of language is tied to understanding the mind. The authors synthesize the language-theory of mind literature into a cohesive presentation intended for researchers and graduate students in psychology and related fields such as education, philosophy, and psycholinguistics, as well as practitioners who work with children in clinical and educational settings.

Ng, Betsy / Kong, Leng Chee (eds.), Self-Determination Theory and Mindfulness. 452 pp. 2025:12 (Springer, GW) <758-1131>
ISBN 978-981-9531-32-5 hard ¥40,652.- (税込) EUR 159.99

This book approaches the field of mindfulness research from the perspective of self-determination theory (SDT). It is a timely presentation of work promoting better understanding of the mental and socioemotional well-being of individuals; of need-based satisfaction for one's own work and learning; of mindfulness of self and others; of awareness and conflict resolution, with strategies for dealing with critical situations. As the first book employing SDT to examine mindfulness research in schools, institutions, workplaces, the authors show in what ways mindfulness involves self- and social awareness, self-regulation, and cognitive, and socioemotional skills. These, in turn, lead to well-being competencies in combinations of behaviours, cognitions, and emotions that are essential for all individuals' success across various settings, including educational and working contexts. It draws on SDT which emphasises on motivation processes and relations among people engaged in activities to promote or nurture mindfulness, ranging from schools and tertiary institutions to various workplaces. It is an essential resource for practitioners and educators, as well as researchers and graduate students in special and general education, educational psychology, well-being, organisational culture, and family-related fields.

Roberts, Elizabeth F. S., In Praise of Addiction: Or How We Can Learn to Love Dependency in a Damaged World. 384 pp. 2026:2 (Princeton U. Pr., US) <758-1133>
ISBN 978-0-691-24580-5 hard ¥6,523.- (税込) US$ 29.95

A transformative way of understanding addiction-and an invitation to find connection in the pleasures of life we know are bad for usElizabeth Roberts has experienced the suffering wrought by addiction: her sister's destructive alcoholism and dependency on prescription drugs, her mother's hoarding, and her own struggles with binge eating. As for so many of us, addiction brought about self-loathing, reflecting her individual failure to exercise self-control, to keep it together. But during her fieldwork studying chemical exposure in Mexico City, her sense of addiction got turned upside down. She witnessed her neighbors, both young and old, defiantly celebrate their compulsive dependencies on alcohol, drugs, and junk food instead of hiding them in shame. Roberts began to wonder if everything she thought she knew about addiction was wrong.In Praise of Addiction shares the unexpected journey that led Roberts to a new understanding of addiction. Taking lessons from her years in Mexico City as well as from addiction researchers, harm reduction activists, and scholars of religion, philosophy, and anthropology, Roberts pays close attention to the external forces that so often fuel the damage of addiction. As her neighbors in Mexico City suggest, the adverse health effects brought on by their dependencies on Coca-Cola, processed foods, drugs, and alcohol have more to do with the ongoing effects of the drug war and NAFTA than any personal failings. Taking up this ecological framework, Roberts draws a line between vice that isolates and addiction that connects, a distinction she movingly integrates into her own life and family, making a case for sharing in the pleasures-and suffering-of dependency.Provocative and deeply humane, In Praise of Addiction invites readers to cast aside the shame, self-hatred, and judgment associated with addiction and discover how dependency can serve as a binding force worthy of our most profound devotion.

Mysticism refers to extraordinary experiences that transcend perceived reality and transform the individual. Section 1 introduces key features such as noetic and ineffable qualities, alongside psychological typologies and a fourfold hierarchy of mystical forms. Section 2 explores monistic mysticism, where self and ultimate reality merge in oneness and ego-dissolution, illustrated through perennial philosophy and its critiques. Section 3 examines nondualistic mysticism, in which the self remains distinct yet is absorbed into a transcendent order, exemplified in world religions where ego yields to the divine. Section 4 discusses dualistic mysticism, where the self encounters a separate nonhuman reality, often expressed through shamanism, spiritist visions, and psychedelic states. Section 5 presents pluralistic mysticism, emphasizing multiple dimensions of self and reality, integrating embodied and spiritual aspects, and drawing on nonphysicalism and parapsychology. Section 6 synthesizes these perspectives, stressing that transcendent realities require self-transformation and that mystical insights can inform daily life across culture.

The emotions is a topic at the forefront of study and research in philosophy, yet most studies focus on debates concerning the emotions and rationality, how emotions differ from feeling and sensation and whether there is a science of the emotions. Relatively overlooked, however, are the philosophical questions raised by the fact that our emotions develop and change over the course of a lifetime.In The Plasticity of the Emotions: Puzzles in the Science of Emotion, Raamy Majeed examines this phenomenon via three questions: the plasticity of our emotions as they are shaped and reshaped over time; how best to accommodate recent findings about the neurobiological variability of emotion mechanisms; and how to categorise emotions in light of such variability. He argues that neither of the dominant explanatory frameworks - emotional modularity and emotional constructionism - adequately addresses these puzzles.By integrating new insights from developmental research into philosophy of mind, cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience, Majeed proposes a novel perspective on emotional development and change, one that synthesises the best features of existing frameworks and solves some of the major puzzles. It will be of interest to those studying and researching the philosophy of the emotions and philosophy of psychology, philosophy of mind and philosophy of cognitive science.

In this illuminating book, Clint Burnham invites the reader to consider humanity's relationship with the world around us, using a unique blend of Lacanian psychoanalysis, literary criticism and visual art to hold a mirror up to our own implications in the mounting climate crisis.Drawing upon the pioneering work of philosopher Mari Ruti, Burnham deftly interweaves examples from climate fiction - including works from Richard Power, Eleanor Catton and Jenni Fagan - 'trash art' and classic films from Alfred Hitchcock to help the reader explore the idea of and better understand what is now called climate grief. Focusing on sublimation and creativity, Burnham weighs up perspectives on both climate activism and climate denialism and uses these ideas to offer a form of respite from trauma or grief surrounding the climate crisis, providing both comfort and a bracing call to action.Mary Ruti and Climate Grief offers a novel and approachable perspective to both students and scholars interested in psychology, environmental studies, psychoanalysis and climate politics, as well as practitioners of the psychological and therapeutic professions who are encountering patients experiencing climate anxiety or other affects in their practice.

As a discipline, industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology has long embraced its role as both a science and a practice; the field is a personification of the scientist-practitioner model. However, the translation of new science into accepted practice can be challenging, and the field often wrestles with the best way to motivate a rich dialogue across the breadth of the field, from science to practice. The editors of this book believe that case studies are an underutilized resource for enriching this dialogue. In this volume are assembled 20 cases that show how I-O psychologists created programs backed by theory and research to address real-world issues in organizations. The cases are diverse and cover several areas of this discipline: how we select people to fill jobs, develop leaders, and facilitate inclusion and belongingness; as well as cases that show how technology is being deployed in our work, and how we can promote safe and healthy workplaces. This book is an important tool in educating future I-O psychologists in the application of science in our practice. It is also a useful guide for practitioners, providing insight into how various interventions have been implemented successfully and the lessons that were learned along the way. Throughout the book, the underlying premise is that science and practice are interdependent parts of a cycle, where each piece informs the other - a cycle that, when balanced, leads to more effective organizational programs and triggers new questions to be answered by our research.

An unprecedented conceptual portrait of Freud as an ecological thinker, this book analyzes our current approaches to ecology and the environmental crisis through the lens of psychoanalysis.Conceived as a theoretical tool-kit, the alphabetically arranged entries-from "Geo-psycho-analysis" to "Trauma extensions" and from "Fetishism and the Climate" to "Obsessive Self-Blaming"-guide the reader toward a deeper appreciation of the unconscious forces at work in our green dreams and nightmares. Along the way, an intriguing image of psychic life emerges through a careful rereading of Freud's oeuvre, where the ego is "eco", while minerals, animals, and plants are all given their due for the shaping of human existence.
