Download or read book Wilhelm Reich and Orgonomy written by Ola Raknes and published by American College of Orgonomy. This book was released on 2004 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an authoritative introduction to Wilhelm Reich's science of life energy, or orgonomy. Ola Raknes covers every aspect of this controversial subject, explaining among much else the liberation of sexual energy, the nature of functional thinking, mind-body functional identity, the four-beat orgasm formula, and the bearing of life energy on religion, education, medicine and psychology. In addition, his own reminiscences provide an unexpected personal dimension. At the time of Reich's death in a federal penitentiary, Raknes was one of the few men still loyal to him and one of the few to enjoy his full confidence. Because Raknes worked so closely with Reich and later followed every development of orgonomic research, Wilhlem Reich and Orgonomy fills an important place both in the context of Reich's own writings and in current studies of life energy.

Book excerpt: In this classic study, Reich repudiates the concept that fascism is the ideology or action of a single individual or nationality, or of any ethnic or political group.

Download or read book Ether God Devil Cosmic Superimposition written by Wilhelm Reich and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1972 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These companion volumes, long out of print, are now presented together for the first time so that the reader may better grasp their essential unity. In Ether, God and Devil, Wilhelm Reich describes the process of functional thinking and reveals how the inner logic of this objective thought technique led him to the discovery of cosmic orgone energy. In Cosmic Superimposition, Reich steps beyond the character structure of man to an understanding of how man is rooted in nature. The super-imposition of two orgone-energy systems which is demonstrable in the genital embrace is revealed as a common functioning principal that exists in all of nature. Concluding this work, Reich returns to the human sphere "to ponder about the greatest riddle of all: the ability of man to think, and by mere thinking to know what nature is and how it works."
Download or read book Where s the Truth written by Wilhelm Reich and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where's the Truth? is the fourth and final volume of Wilhelm Reich's autobiographical writings, drawn from his diaries, letters, and laboratory notebooks. These writings reveal the details of the outrider scientist's life—his joys and sorrows, his hopes and insecurities—and chronicle his experiments with what he called "orgone energy." A student of Freud's and a prominent research physician in the early psychoanalytic movement, Reich immigrated to America in 1939 in flight from Nazism, and pursued research about orgone energy functions in the living organism and the atmosphere. Where's the Truth? begins in January 1948, shortly after Reich became a target of the Federal Food and Drug Administration. He had already faced persecution by the U.S. government, having been mistaken by the State Department and the FBI for both a Communist and a Nazi. Starting in 1947, Reich was hounded by the FDA, which, in 1954, obtained an injunction by default against him that enabled it to burn six tons of his published books and research journals, and to ban the use of one of his most important experimental research tools—the orgone energy accumulator. Challenging the right of a court to judge basic scientific research, Reich was imprisoned in March 1957 and died in the U.S. Penitentiary in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, eight months later. The text gathered here shows Reich's steadfast determination to protect his work. "Where's the truth?" he asked a lawyer, and that question animates this volume and rounds out our understanding of a unique, irrepressible modern figure.

Download or read book Adventures in the Orgasmatron written by Christopher Turner and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of The Economist's 2011 Books of the Year A Boston Globe Best Nonfiction Book of 2011 Well before the 1960s, a sexual revolution was under way in America, led by expatriated European thinkers who saw a vast country ripe for liberation. In Adventures in the Orgasmatron, Christopher Turner tells the revolution's story—an illuminating, thrilling, often bizarre story of sex and science, ecstasy and repression. Central to the narrative is the orgone box—a tall, slender construction of wood, metal, and steel wool. A person who sat in the box, it was thought, could elevate his or her "orgastic potential." The box was the invention of Wilhelm Reich, an outrider psychoanalyst who faced a federal ban on the orgone box, an FBI investigation, a fraught encounter with Einstein, and bouts of paranoia. In Turner's vivid account, Reich's efforts anticipated those of Alfred Kinsey, Herbert Marcuse, and other prominent thinkers—efforts that brought about a transformation of Western views of sexuality in ways even the thinkers themselves could not have imagined.
Download or read book The Science of Orgonomy written by Pierre F. Walter and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2010-11-14 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE SCIENCE OF ORGONOMY, Revised Edition, 2012, is a collection of essays on Wilhelm Reich; there are two essays in English language, entitled 'Reich's Greatest Discoveries' and 'Orgonomy and Schizophrenia' and one essay in German language entitled 'Wilhelm Reich und Orgonomie'. The author understands his engagement for Reich as a contribution to the rehabilitation of one of the greatest, but also one of the most misunderstood, scientists of the 20th century. Reich's Greatest Discoveries is a science essay about Wilhelm Reich's unique orgone research, a new branch of science that at present gains importance because it has shown us ways out of the ecological impasse. Despite the outstanding discoveries that Wilhelm Reich made and the methodological soundness of the new science he founded and that he termed orgonomy, Western science until very recently denied the energy principle, while now, the dynamic-functional, holistic, ethereal and patterned nature of the universe is beginning to be recognized. Wilhelm Reich, as early as in 1945, achieved complete healing of a female schizophrenic patient using bioenergetic or, as Reich termed it, orgonotic treatment. Reich described the treatment in a case report entitled 'The Schizophrenic Split' that was never published and that I ordered from the Wilhelm Reich Museum in Rangeley, Maine. Many a reader, and certainly mental health professionals, know about the ground-breaking work of Ronald David Laing and other members of the movement of antipsychiatry regarding the alternative treatment of schizophrenia. However, small is the number of individuals who have noticed that Wilhelm Reich's research and mental health treatment approach by far preceded those much more well-known and acclaimed methods. In fact, Reich achieved remarkable results with simply redirecting the patient's orgonotic energy flow. Reich's schizophrenia treatment seems revolutionary; however only in the eyes of Western torture psychiatry. For those who, like me, have had a deeper look into Chinese medicine, acupuncture and the energetic principles of Feng Shui, Reich's holistic science approach and his cancer biopathy appear logical, systemically sound and effective.

Download or read book People In Trouble written by Wilhelm Reich and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1978-04 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published by Reich in 1953, People in Trouble is an autobiographical work in which Reich describes the development of his sociological thinking from 1927 to 1937. In simple narrative form he recounts his personal experiences with major social and political events and ideas, and reveals how these experiences gradually led him to an awareness of the deep significance of the human character structure in shaping and responding to the social process. The importance of Karl Marx's work and its distortion by communist politicians plays an important role in Reich's account, as does the political activity in the International Psychoanalytic Association which led to his expulsion from that organization in 1934. The Norwegian press campaign against his biological experiments is also discussed. People in Trouble is the story of one man's courageous struggle to understand the political activity of his fellow men.
