Heal

Director Kelly Noonan Gores’ documentary takes us on a scientific and spiritual journey where we discover that our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions have a huge impact on our health and ability to heal. The latest science reveals that we are not victims of unchangeable genes, nor should we buy into a scary prognosis. The fact is we have more control over our health and life than we have been taught to believe. This film will empower you with a new understanding of the miraculous nature of the human body and the extraordinary healer within us all. HEAL not only taps into the brilliant minds of leading scientists and spiritual teachers, but follows three people on actual high stakes healing journeys. Healing can be extremely complex and deeply personal, but it can also happen spontaneously in a moment. Through these inspiring and emotional stories we find out what works, what doesn’t, and why.

Hidden in Plain Sight – Spirituality, Disability, and Wholeness

Rev. Bill Gaventa, director, Summer Institute on Theology and Disability November 8, 2019PYNE LECTURE ON MINISTRY WITH PERSONS WITH DISABILITIESHidden in Plain Sight: Spirituality, Disability, and WholenessRev. Bill Gaventa, director, Summer Institute on Theology and Disability and the Collaborative on Faith and Disability linking various University Centers of Excellence in Developmental Disabilities, and author of Spirituality and Disability: Recovering Wholeness (Baylor University Press: 2018).Unlike the arenas of acute care and psychiatric care, spirituality is often unrecognized and unaddressed as a dimension of care, support, and quality of life in the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Why?  This lecture and discussion addresses some of the reasons, but more importantly, illustrates (1) how exploring the meaning of disability leads to the realm of spirituality, and (2) how spirituality permeates the life cycles of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, issues of care, and quality of life.Sponsored by the School of Theology and Ministry and generously supported by the Pyne Endowment Trust in memory of Professor Margaret E. Pyne, a lifelong advocate for persons with disabilities.

The Problems of Philosophy

Bertrand Russell was one of the greatest logicians since Aristotle, and one of the most important philosophers of the past two hundred years. As we approach the 125th anniversary of the Nobel laureate’s birth, his works continue to spark debate, resounding with unmatched timeliness and power. The Problems of Philosophy, one of the most popular works in Russell’s prolific collection of writings, has become core reading in philosophy. Clear and accessible, this little book is an intelligible and stimulating guide to those problems of philosophy which often mistakenly lead to its status as too lofty and abstruse for the lay mind. Focusing on problems he believes will provoke positive and constructive discussion, Russell concentrates on knowledge rather than metaphysics, steering the reader through his famous 1910 distinction between “knowledge by acquaintance and knowledge by description,” and introducing important theories of Descartes, Kant, Hegel, Hume, Locke, Plato, and others to lay the foundation for philosophical inquiry by general readers and scholars alike. With a new introduction by John Perry, this valuable work is a perfect introduction to the field and will continue to stimulate philosophical discussion as it has done for nearly forty years.

Essentials of Psychiatric Diagnosis

Grounded in author Allen Frances’s extensive clinical experience, this comprehensive yet concise guide helps the busy clinician find the right psychiatric diagnosis and avoid the many pitfalls that lead to errors. Covering every disorder routinely encountered in clinical practice, Frances provides the appropriate ICD-9-CM code for each one (the same code utilized in the DSM), a useful screening question, a colorful descriptive prototype, lucid diagnostic tips, and a discussion of other disorders that must be ruled out. The book closes with an index of the most common presenting symptoms, listing possible diagnoses that must be considered for each. Frances was instrumental in the development of past editions of the DSM and provides helpful cautions on questionable aspects of DSM-5.

Tulburarile psihice nu sunt boli. Replica la acuzele unui psihopat antisocial

Cu un tupeu nemărginit un politician exponent al psihopatologie antisociale, îndrăzneşte să acuze un protestatar de faptul că a fost diagnosticat cu o tulburare psihică neacceptată universal de comunitatea psihiatrică. Adică un fel de „Râde ciob de oală spartă”. N-as vrea sa se inteleaga ca as repeta acuzatia de psihopatologie catre politicieni, la fel cum acest consilier a facut-o . Problema in cazul acestei tulburari antisociale pe care ei o au nu este intensitatea ei, ci forma simptomelor. Acestea sunt paguboase pentru societate nu existenta de facto a tulburarii psihice in general.
