A "deeply spiritual and socially radical" (Dr. Obery Hendricks,
PhD) guide to uplift our spirits as we work for justice in these
politically turbulent times--from Reverend Otis Moss, III, Senior
Pastor at Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ and one of the
country's most renowned and beloved spiritual and civil rights
leaders. Once again, as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. first observed
in the 1960s, it is midnight in America--a dark time of division
and anxiety, with threats of violence looming in the shadows. In
2008, the Trinity United Church in Chicago received threats when
one of its parishioners, Senator Barack Obama, ran for president.
"We're going to kill you" rang in Reverend Otis Moss's ears when he
suddenly heard a noise in the middle of the night. He grabbed a
baseball bat to confront the intruder in his home. When he opened
the door to his daughter's room, he found that the source of the
noise was his own little girl, dancing. She was simply practicing
for her ballet recital. At that moment, Pastor Moss saw that the
real intruder was within him. Caught in a cycle of worry and anger,
he had allowed the darkness inside. But seeing his daughter evoked
Pslam 30: "You have turned my mourning into dancing." He set out to
write the sermon that became this inspiring and transformative
book. Dancing in the Darkness is a "life-affirming" (Dr. Teresa L.
Fry Brown) guide to the practical, political, and spiritual
challenges of our day. Drawing on the teachings of Dr. King, Howard
Thurman, sacred scripture, southern wisdom, global spiritual
traditions, Black culture, and his own personal experiences, Dr.
Moss instructs you on how to practice spiritual resistance by
combining justice and love. This collection helps us tap into the
spiritual reserves we all possess but too often overlook, so we can
slay our personal demons, confront our civic challenges, and reach
our highest goals.

In this volume, the authors present theoretical explanations for a
few basic problems connected with the propagation of extra wide
band, short impulses in linear media, and with the propagation of
whistlers and megawhistlers in plasmas. In addition, the book
provides an overview of ground and space based measurements,
digital processing and signal analysis. The theoretical treatment
in this volume is original in the sense that, unlike former
solutions, the authors present a fundamentally non-monochromatic
approach. A key feature of this approach is the application of the
Laplace Transformation' and the Method of Inhomogeneous Basic
Modes' to solve Maxwell's equations. It is shown that when the
obtained theoretical results are applied to digital recordings, the
wave analysis process becomes so flexible that it can also be used
to investigate other wave propagation problems. These are both
terrestrial phenomena (like atmospheric and seismic activity,
buried target detection, etc.) and phenomena in space (planetary,
interplanetary, plasmaspheric, whistler and megawhistler
propagation). The book is aimed at a technical and professional
audience working on whistler science and/or wave propagation
problems.
When the late Heinz Kohut defined psychoanalysis as the science of
empathy and introspection, he sparked a debate that has animated
psychoanalytic discourse ever since. What is the relationship of
empathy to psychoanalysis? Is it a constituent of analytical
technique, an integral aspect of the therapeutic action of
analysis, or simply a metaphor for a mode of observation better
understood via 'classical' theory and terminology? The dialogue
about empathy, which is really a dialogue about the nature of the
analytic process, continues in this two-volume set, originally
published in 1984. In Volume I, several illuminating attempts to
define empathy are followed by Kohut's essay, 'Introspection,
Empathy, and the Semicircle of Mental Health.' Kohut's paper, in
turn, ushers in a series of original contributions on 'Empathy as a
Perspective in Psychoanalysis.' The volume ends with five papers
which strive to demarcate an empathic approach to various areas of
artistic endeavour, including the appreciation of visual art.
Volume II continues the dialogue with a series of developmental
studies which explore the role of empathy in early child care at
the same time as they chart the emergence of the young child's
capacity to empathize. In the concluding section, 'Empathy in
Psychoanalytic Work,' contributors and discussants return to the
arena of technique. They not only theorize about empathy in
relation to analytic understanding and communication, but address
issues of nosology, considering how the empathic vantage point may
be utilized in the treatment of patients with borderline and
schizophrenic pathology. In their critical attention to the many
dimensions of empathy - philosophical, developmental, therapeutic,
artistic - the contributors collectively bear witness to the fact
that Kohut has helped to shape new questions, but not set limits to
the search for answers. The product of their efforts is an
anatomical exploration of a topic whose relevance for
psychoanalysis and psychotherapy is only beginning to be
understood.
Originally published in 1983 Reflections on Self Psychology records
the development of a powerful initiative to alter psychoanalytic
theory and practice, and an evaluative questioning of this
initiative. It presents a dialogue that developed at the Boston
Symposium of 1980 between vigorous proponents of self psychology,
equally energetic critics, and many participants between these
polar positions. This book attempts to capture within its pages not
only the content of what was presented, explored, and evaluated in
Boston, but also a sense of the people, about 1,000 strong, who
exchanged their ideas on and off the podium - and the remarkable
spirit of open inquiry that invigorated these proceedings. The
book, as was the meeting, is organized to explore four subjects:
the development of the self: infant research; the implications of
self psychology for psychoanalytic practice; self psychology and
psychotherapy; and the implications of self psychology for
psychoanalytic theory. The final section of the book is devoted to
an essay by Heinz Kohut that provides an integrated response to the
issues and criticisms raised in the course of the symposium. This
essay while based on extemporaneous responses by Kohut during
different phases of the meeting, is, in its written version, a
cohesive, carefully revised, and edited statement prepared in the
mellowing period following the meeting and before Kohut's untimely
death.

Today's advertising professional is confronted by a bewildering
legal maze of statutes, rules, regulations, court decisions, and
regulatory rulings that determine important advertising decisions.
Finding one's way through the maze can be time-consuming, not to
mention extremely costly and frustrating. This authoritative
reference manual can make that task easier, more productive, and
cost-effective. This easy-to-read comprehensive guide provides
readers with a thorough understanding of the practical impact of
advertising restrictions. It offers an exhaustive analysis of
hundreds of Federal Trade Commission cease-and-desist orders,
National Advertising Division/National Advertising Review Board
decisions, landmark federal and state court decisions, federal and
state laws, rules and regulations, and advertising industry
self-regulatory guidelines. The author addresses the various
requirements of the FTC, FCC, NAD/NARB, and the network clearance
departments. Special types of advertising are examined, such as
those relating to alcoholic beverages, drugs, children's
advertising, professional advertising, and political advertising.
Major advertising compliance issues are discussed, including false,
unfair, and deceptive advertising; advertising substantiation;
comparative advertising; warranties; and commercial speech. Major
applicable laws such as the Lanham Act, Federal Trade Commission
Act, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act are covered. In addition, a wealth of
appendixes and other full-text materials are included that will
enable the advertising and marketing executive to avoid costly
errors. All information is presented in a highly readable style to
benefit both layment and expert.
