Dreaming and Being Dreamt The Psychoanalytic Function of Dreams

In Dreaming and Being Dreamt John Schneider illustrates the central concept of all emotional functioning: that we are most alive in our dreaming and that it is dreaming that brings us to life. Building upon the theoretical foundations of Ogden and Bion the book explicates the way in which it is the unconscious goal of the patient and the task of the analyst to engage in dreaming the patient into existence in a fuller way than the patient has been able to dream. It goes on to develop the idea that all dreams are psychological works in progress containing aspects of emotional experience that are entirely or partially too disturbing to dream on one’s own. Each chapter of this book offers rich clinical exchanges between patient and analyst in analytic sessions. Schneider clearly shows how he dreams the analytic session with patients and the importance of talking-as-dreaming in contemporary psychoanalytic theory and practice. With new insights on theory and rich clinical vignettes this book will be indispensable for all psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists wanting to engage with the latest thinking on dreamwork. | Dreaming and Being Dreamt The Psychoanalytic Function of Dreams

Foundations of Political Sociology

When initially published in 1972 Foundations of Political Sociology was acknowledged to be the first unified study of the field. It still provides a cross-fertilization of knowledge concerning the interrelation of social class and political power. Taking into account new specializations in social theory the book covers all major social systems on a comparative international basis. The opening remarks prepared for this new printing provide an estimate of how the field has changed during the past quarter century and what unexpected challenges have arisen in areas of public trust and personal privacy. This book examines fascism communism anarchism conservatism and liberalism as systems of rule as well as domains of theory. It is thus a unique effort at linking problems of history with problems of policy. The six sections of the book detail the historical and theoretical antecedents of this relatively new hybrid area in social research: policy coordinates of political sociology types of social systems forms of political ideologies polarities of revolution and counter-revolution civil-military relations mass vs. elite contradictions and threads of consensus and conflict running through these themes. Horowitz presents as his central thesis that in today's world no economic determinism can do justice to social reality. Foundations is the work of a politically sensitive and knowledgeable scholar. Louis Schneider Social ForcesFoundations of Political Sociology reflects extensive teaching and research in the area of political sociology. The book combines analytical insight with a provocative cutting edge and represents the best of Professor Horowitz. Thomas R. McFaul The AnnalsHorowitz's political stance is interesting. Though he knows the radical literature he distances himself from it. He sympathizes with everyone and strives to be provocative and yet elusive a personal voice in a dogmatic discipline. W. J. M.

Review of High-Impact ePortfolio Practice: “One of the main takeaways for me is that good ePortfolio work can be done effectively at any type of institution. Happily Eynon and Gambino explain how by illustrating the requisite steps and conditions to do ePortfolio well in the classroom and beyond. Moreover all students benefit especially those who are less well prepared for college which is one of the most important and necessary features of a high impact practice. The other noteworthy lesson for me personally is that the field now has another HIP to add to the officially approved list. My sincere thanks and congratulations to all those involved for producing this important work and providing the guidance the enterprise needs to strengthen undergraduate education and enrich and deepen student learning.
