Download or read book Psychology at the Heart of Social Change written by Mick Cooper and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2023-01-16 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in troubled times: climate crisis, war and authoritarian ‘populism’ are just some of the challenges we are currently facing. Never has there been such a need for a new approach to politics – nor such an opportunity for one. To create a world in which people thrive, we need to know what thriving is. Over the past century, psychotherapy – and its parent discipline, psychology – has built up a vibrant, nuanced and highly practical understanding of human wellbeing and distress. This book describes a progressive political approach that integrates insights from the psychotherapeutic and psychological domain, moving us from a politics of blame to a politics of understanding. In this vision of society – surrounded by a culture of radical acceptance – all individuals can live rich and fulfilling lives. We need those shaping our political landscape to understand psychological needs and processes more deeply to enhance our ability to work with others in a spirit of collaboration, dialogue and respect.

Book excerpt: The Fragrant Chilli is a book for the beginner chillihead, an introduction to a fascinating plant which has been likened to the sun with planets of cooking and gardening techniques, botany, medicine, language, chemistry and folklore revolving around it. Michael Bailes, the author, chillihead extraordinaire and proprietor of The Fragrant Garden Nursery on the New South Wales Central Coast, presents an eclectic and fascinating look at the plant 'discovered' in the West Indies by Christopher Columbus and taken back home to Spain as a spice that would rival black pepper and perhaps break the Dutch stranglehold on the spice trade. Contact with other chilliheads opens doors to a cornucopia of Information about its world. Did you know that the Cuna Indians of Panama trail strings of chillies behind their canoes to discourage shark attack? That coating ships' hulls with paint or petroleum jelly laced with capsaicin, the active ingredient in the chilli, deters barnacles? That the smoke from burning chillies can be used to fumigate a house against all sorts of bugs? Along with facts humorous, bizarre and fascinating, Michael Bailes includes serious discussion of the botany of chilli, its chemistry, its medical uses, how to grow his favourite varieties out of the hundreds available, and how to cook with it (including how to make Chilli Sherry, a sovereign remedy for sore throats) -- but concludes that the one thing that chilliheads have taught him is that life should be fun, that one should take risks and carpe capsicum, or 'seize the chilli'!

Download or read book The Year of Eating Dangerously written by Tom Parker Bowles and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fugu. Dog. Cobra. Bees. Spleen. A 600,000 SCU chili pepper. All considered foods by millions of people around the world. And all objects of great fascination to Tom Parker Bowles, a food journalist who grew up eating his mother's considerably safer roast chicken, shepherd's pie and mushy peas. Intrigued by the food phobias of two friends, Parker Bowles became inspired to examine the cultural divides that make some foods verboten or "dangerous" in the culture he grew up with while being seen as lip-smacking delicacies in others. So began a year-long odyssey through Asia, Europe and America in search of the world's most thrilling, terrifying and odd foods. Parker Bowles is always witty and sometimes downright hilarious in recounting his quest for envelope-pushing meals, ranging from the potentially lethal to the outright disgusting to the merely gluttonous—and he proves in this book that an open mouth and an open mind are the only passports a man needs to truly discover the world.
