The Varieties of Religious Experience - A Study In Human Nature (Hardcover): William James The Varieties of Religious Experience - A Study In Human Nature (Hardcover)
William James; Foreword by Micky James; Introduction by Eugene Taylor, Jeremy Carrette
R3,563 Discovery Miles 35 630 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

'Is life worth living? Yes, a thousand times yes when the world still holds such spirits as Professor James.' - Gertrude Stein A classic of American thought, William James' The Varieties of Religious Experience is an extraordinary study of human spirituality in all its forms and one of the most profound works of Psychology ever written. When the book was published in 1902 the study of the human mind was a thrillingly new field of scientific enquiry: James was one of the first to seriously examine the psychology of religious faith and where he led, both Jung and Freud would follow. Yet for all its historical significance, this is a book full of humanity, wit and some deeply personal stories of revelation, religious devotion and mystical experience. The Routledge Classics edition of The Varieties of Religious Experience makes available in paperback for the first time the Centenary Edition published by Routledge in 2002 with new introductions on the historical and contemporary significance of James' work and a foreword by the author's grandson, Micky James.

The Mystery of Personality - A History of Psychodynamic Theories (Paperback, 2009): Eugene Taylor The Mystery of Personality - A History of Psychodynamic Theories (Paperback, 2009)
Eugene Taylor
R3,251 Discovery Miles 32 510 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

In The Mystery of Personality: A History of Psychodynamic Theories, acclaimed professor and historian Eugene Taylor synthesizes the field s first century and a half into a rich, highly readable account. Taylor situates the dynamic school in its catalytic place in history, re-evaluating misunderstood figures and events, re-creating the heady milieu of discovery as the concept of "mental science" dawns across Europe, revisiting the widening rift between clinical and experimental study (or the couch and the lab) as early psychology matured into legitimate science.

Gradual but vital evolutions form the heart of this chronicle: the ebb and flow of analytic theory and practice, the shift from doctor-centered to client-centered therapy, the movement from exclusionary to multidisciplinary, the evolving role of the therapist. And as can be expected from the author, there is special emphasis on the sublime in psychology: the philosophy/psychology fusion of the New England transcendentalists, the battle between spiritualism and science in 1880s America, and early versions of today s spiritually-attuned therapies. Pivotal concepts and key individuals covered are:

  • Charcot, Janet, and the origins of dynamic personality theory in the so-called French, Swiss, English, and American psychotherapeutic axis.
  • Person and personality: William James s "radical empiricism"
  • The rise of psychoanalysis: Freud, the Freudians, and the Neo-Freudians
  • Adler and Jung, who were never "students" of Freud: Toward, within, and beyond the self
  • Murray, Allport, and Lewin at Harvard in the 30s
  • Culture and personality, pastoral counseling, and Gestalt Psychology in New York in the 40s and 50s
  • An Existential-humanistic and Transpersonally oriented depth psychology in the 60s
  • The current era: "science confronts itself," as neuroscience enters the picture.

Students of psychology and its history will find in this inspiring narrative both possibilities for further study and a new appreciation of their own work. The Mystery of Personality: A History of Psychodynamic Theories is a stimulating course conducted by a master teacher."

William James on Consciousness beyond the Margin (Paperback): Eugene Taylor William James on Consciousness beyond the Margin (Paperback)
Eugene Taylor
R846 R765 Discovery Miles 7 650 Save R81 (10%) Ships in 12 - 17 working days

At the turn of the twentieth century, William James was America's most widely read philosopher. In addition to being one of the founders of pragmatism, however, he was also a leading psychologist and author of the seminal work, "The Principles of Psychology" (1890). While scholars argue that James withdrew from the study of psychology after 1890, Eugene Taylor demonstrates convincingly that James remained preeminently a psychologist until his death in 1910.

Taylor details James's contributions to experimental psychopathology, psychical research, and the psychology of religion. Moreover, Taylor's work shows that out of his scientific study of consciousness, James formulated a sophisticated metaphysics of radical empiricism. In light of historical developments in psychology, as well as the current philosophic implications of the neuroscience revolution related to the biology of consciousness, Taylor argues that both the subject matter of James's investigations and his metaphysics of radical empiricism are just as important for psychology today as James believed they were in his own time.

This book represents a major new contribution both to James scholarship and to the history of American psychology. Although philosophers have analyzed radical empiricism, this book is the first to trace the development of radical empiricism as a metaphysics addressed to psychologists. It is also the first to show James's involvement in depth-psychology and psychotherapeutics and to trace historical continuity between James's work on consciousness and subsequent developments in psychoanalysis, personality theory, and humanistic psychology.

Noncommutative Harmonic Analysis (Paperback): Michael Eugene Taylor Noncommutative Harmonic Analysis (Paperback)
Michael Eugene Taylor
R3,246 Discovery Miles 32 460 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book explores some basic roles of Lie groups in linear analysis, with particular emphasis on the generalizations of the Fourier transform and the study of partial differential equations. It began as lecture notes for a one-semester graduate course given by the author in noncommutative harmonic analysis. It is a valuable resource for both graduate students and faculty, and requires only a background with Fourier analysis and basic functional analysis, plus the first few chapters of a standard text on Lie groups. The basic method of noncommutative harmonic analysis, a generalization of Fourier analysis, is to synthesize operators on a space on which a Lie group has a unitary representation from operators on irreducible representation spaces.Though the general study is far from complete, this book covers a great deal of the progress that has been made on important classes of Lie groups. Unlike many other books on harmonic analysis, this book focuses on the relationship between harmonic analysis and partial differential equations. The author considers many classical PDEs, particularly boundary value problems for domains with simple shapes, that exhibit noncommutative groups of symmetries. Also, the book contains detailed work, which has not previously been published, on the harmonic analysis of the Heisenberg group and harmonic analysis on cones.
