Die Theorien von Dr. Sigmund Freud, Vater der Psychoanalyse und unbestrittener Meister der Traumdeutung, waren Grundlage für die Ausbildung von Generationen von Psychologen. Man kann sich kaum eine Welt ohne Ödipuskomplex, das Unbewusste oder seine Zigarren und seine Couch vorstellen. Aber wäre eine Welt ohne Freuds Werke so viel schlimmer?  
Das ist keineswegs sicher.  

Seit den frühen Anfängen der Psychoanalyse wurden Zweifel an der Richtigkeit von Freuds Theorien und Methoden laut. Dabei haben Freuds Kritiker aber nie verstanden, dass die öffentlich zugänglichen Dokumente aus Freuds Schaffen von seiner Familie, seinen Kollegen und seinen Anhängern systematisch ausgewählt, zensiert und teilweise sogar gefälscht wurden. Trotz dieser Vertuschungen gibt es mehr und mehr Hinweise auf Leichen im Keller der Psychoanalyse.  

Dank Eric Miller kommt jetzt endlich die ganze Wahrheit, die so gewissenhaft verschwiegen wurde, ans Tageslicht. Vor Miller konnte niemand das letzte Puzzlestück identifizieren, das Freuds Denken und Handeln bestimmte und motivierte.  

In seinem bahnbrechenden Buch zeigt Miller, dass Freuds sprichwörtliche Leichen im Keller ganz reale Opfer sind: die Leichen der Frauen und Männer, die Dr. Sigmund Freud ermordete.  

Christopher Lasch was a leading intellectual of the twentieth century. His work consistently probed the nation s political and cultural terrain, considering the unruly thrust of America s history and the possibilities of a better way. Hope in a Scattering Time is the first and only full biography of this towering intellectual figure.

Miller plumbed Lasch s published writings, his correspondence, and interviews and correspondence with his friends, students, and colleagues to create this comprehensive biography. In these pages Eric Miller captures the evolving nature of Lasch s understanding of the world and his fight for clarity and insight in a muddled age.

Christopher Lasch s sharp, prophetic stance caused many in his time to rethink what they thought they had understood, and to consider the world anew. Fifteen years after Lasch s death, the time is ripe to once again follow his lead and to reassess how we view and understand our world.

In Glimpses of Another Land, Eric Miller takes the reader across the American landscape in quest of insight into our times. For those facing challenges and choices from all sides, Miller offers not analysis so much as reorientation--the kind of sharpened vision that redirects movement. An age featuring 9/11 as its defining moment surely requires probing reflection and judgment. Here Eric Miller, with an alert eye and keen voice, provides both.

This book outlines many of the techniques involved in materials development and characterization for photoelectrochemical (PEC) – for example, proper metrics for describing material performance, how to assemble testing cells and prepare materials for assessment of their properties, and how to perform the experimental measurements needed to achieve reliable results towards better scientific understanding. For each technique, proper procedure, benefits, limitations, and data interpretation are discussed. Consolidating this information in a short, accessible, and easy to read reference guide will allow researchers to more rapidly immerse themselves into PEC research and also better compare their results against those of other researchers to better advance materials development. This book serves as a “how-to” guide for researchers engaged in or interested in engaging in the field of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. PEC water splitting is a rapidly growing field of research in which the goal is to develop materials which can absorb the energy from sunlight to drive electrochemical hydrogen production from the splitting of water. The substantial complexity in the scientific understanding and experimental protocols needed to sufficiently pursue accurate and reliable materials development means that a large need exists to consolidate and standardize the most common methods utilized by researchers in this field.

Rising life expectancies and declining social capital in the developed world mean that an increasing number of people are likely to experience some form of loneliness in their lifetimes than ever before. Narratives of Loneliness tackles some of the most pressing issues related to loneliness, showing that whilst recent policies on social integration, community building and volunteering may go some way to giving an illusion of not being alone, ultimately, they offer a rhetoric of togetherness that may be more seductive than ameliorative, as the condition and experience of loneliness is far more complex than commonly perceived.

Containing thought-provoking contributions from researchers and commentators in several countries, this important work challenges us to rethink some of the burning issues of our day with specific reference to the causes and consequences of loneliness. Topics include the loneliness and mental health of military personnel, loneliness and social media, loneliness and sexuality, urban loneliness, and the experiences of transnational movement and adopted children. This book therefore makes an overdue multidisciplinary contribution to the emerging debate about how best to deal with loneliness in a world that combines greater and faster connectedness on the one hand with more intensely experienced isolation on the other.

Since Émile Durkheim first claimed that the structure of society could have a strong bearing on psychological health in the 1890s, researchers in a range of disciplines have explored the probable impact of social context on mental health and wellbeing. Interdisciplinary in approach, Narratives of Loneliness will therefore be of great interest to academics, postgraduate students and researchers in social sciences, the arts, psychology and psychiatry.

This Handbook is designed to help cooperative education and internship professionals and employers design, carry out, and disseminate quality research and evaluation studies of work-based education. It offers examples of current, leading-edge studies about work-based education, but with a practical twist: The chapter authors frame their studies within a specific key research design issue, including finding a starting point and a theoretical framework; fitting research into one's busy practitioner workload; deciding on particular data-gathering methods and an overall methodological approach; integrating qualitative and quantitative methodologies; and disseminating results. Also addressed are questions and concerns that are relevant throughout the course of a research project: the use of theory in research; the role and relationship of program assessment to research; and ethical considerations in research.

By combining descriptions of exemplary research and evaluation studies with practical advice from top researchers in the field, this volume is a useful tool for educators and employers who are designing and carrying out their own studies, as well as a resource for what current research is discovering and affirming about the field itself. Educators from other fields, such as study abroad and service-learning will also find this book an indispensable reference in conducting research on experiential learning and teaching.
