In Philosophy's Role in Counseling and Psychotherapy, Peter Raabe
argues that philosophy is an effective method in treating mental
illness. Calling for a paradigm shift away from the standard belief
that the brain and mind are identical Raabe argues that so-called
"mental illnesses" such as depression and schizophrenia are not the
actual causes of psychological misery. Instead, they are just
labels for symptoms. For example, the word "depression" is merely a
label attached to a collection of symptoms such as sadness,
hopelessness, and low self-esteem. Raabe posits that distressing or
painful life events can cause symptoms that are often clinically
labeled as the mental illness of depression. The suffering brought
on by painful life events can often be alleviated with helpful
discussions, and without resorting to medications. Because
philosophy is the foremost form of discussion, it means that the
suffering that is labeled mental illness can be treated and even
cured with philosophy. Raabe ultimately concludes that philosophy
is beneficial in three ways: it can prevent the onset of a
so-called mental illness in the person who studies it, it can be
used to help individuals suffering from the distress that is
labeled "mental illness," and it will enhance the competence of the
counselor or therapist who practices it.
With contributions from eighteen professional women counselors from
twelve different countries, this book is the first to provide an
overview of new-born philosophical practices from an entirely
female perspective. It gives voice to women's thoughts and brings
to the reader a living portrait of philosophy as a service to
people and a training for those in search of a fully lived
existence. As the authors draw on first-hand experience, their
philosophical analyses intertwine with changes in attitudes and
real-life stories, unearthing that forgotten soul of philosophical
thought which our ancestors referred to as the Anima. The book
provides a lively, sprightly and vivacious picture of how
philosophy is used in practice, a long way from the rigidness and
stereotypical severity of its traditional image. It will not fail
to inspire readers to live their thoughts and think their lives.

Thieme's classic, indispensable guide to sectional imaging of the
cranium Now in a revised and expanded fourth edition, this
exquisitely illustrated text/atlas by renowned experts, provides
you with the cognitive tools to visualize and interpret CT and MR
images of the cranium. In exacting detail, the normal structures of
the brain, as seen in the three orthogonal planes (axial, sagittal,
and coronal), are revealed with unparalleled accuracy, making the
volume a highly useful aid in daily practice, for teaching, and to
provide an anatomic baseline for research on the brain. Beyond the
clinical utility of the contents, the work is an aesthetic pleasure
to behold, making learning and comprehension of complex material as
simple and easy as possible. Key Features: Detailed brain anatomy
shown in the three orthogonal planes; two-page spreads showing
imaging studies keyed to the graphics using numbers that are
consistent throughout Graphic representation of the major arterial
and venous territories, and CNS spaces, supra- and infratentorial
The most important neurofunctional systems revealed in multiplanar
parallel sections, including detail on the potential sites of
lesions and corresponding neurologic deficits New to the fourth
edition: All X-ray and CT-/MR images replaced with new
high-resolution CT and MR images High resolution 3-Tesla MR images
of the brainstem, 7-Tesla-images, fractional anisotropy (FA) maps
as well as quantitative susceptibility maps (QSM) New material on
temporal bone, brain maturation, neurofunctional systems Clinical
context updated and expanded Cranial Neuroimaging and Clinical
Neuroanatomy is an essential reference guide for neuroradiologists
and neurosurgeons (in training and in practice) and will also be
welcomed by many neurologists. This book includes complimentary
access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.
Composed in 1855-56, Liszt's "Symphony to Dante's 'Divina
Commedia'" is programmatic work depicting Dante's journey through
hell and purgatory. It was quite advanced for its era, employing
many new orchestral colors and daring harmonic schemes. The work's
disastrous premiere, given under the composer's direction on
November 7th, 1857 in Dresden's Hoftheater, was a public
humiliation for the composer. Despite the rocky start, the work's
quality and value became apparent over time. The present score is a
digitally-restored reissue of the one first published in 1920 by
Breitkopf und H rtel as volume 7 of "Franz Liszts Musikalische
Werke," edited by Otto Taubmann, with a preface by Peter Raabe. As
with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the
amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP -
Petrucci Music Library.
