Download or read book Education for Wicked Problems and the Reconciliation of Opposites written by Raoul J. Adam and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-26 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recognition and reconciliation of ‘opposites’ lies at the heart of our most personal and global problems and is arguably one of the most neglected developmental tasks of Western education. Such problems are ‘wicked’ in the sense that they involve real-life decisions that have to be made in rapidly changing contexts involving irreducible tensions and paradoxes. By exploring our human tendency to bifurcate the universe, Education for Wicked Problems & the Reconciliation of Opposites proposes a way to recognise and (re)solve some of our most wicked problems. Applying an original theory of bi-relational development to wicked problems, Adam proposes that our everyday ways of knowing and being can be powerfully located and understood in terms of the creation, emergence, opposition, convergence, collapse and trans-position of dyadic constituents such as nature/culture, conservative/liberal and spirit/matter. He uses this approach to frame key debates in and across domains of knowledge and to offer new perspectives on three of the most profound and related problems of the twenty-first century: globalisation, sustainability and secularisation. This book is a comprehensive study of dyads and dyadic relationships and provides a multidisciplinary and original approach to human development in the face of wicked problems. It will be of great interest to students and academics in education and psychosocial development as well as professionals across a range of fields looking for new ways to recognise and (re)solve the wicked problems that characterise their professions.

Download or read book Dialectical Approaches to Studying Personal Relationships written by Barbara M. Montgomery and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes many different and useful ways of understanding personal relationships from a dialectical perspective. It is written for scholars in higher education, both faculty and students, across many fields within the social sciences and the humanities who seek answers to questions about how people relate to one another. The book is valuable for all scholars who pursue new ideas because it models a form of scholarly communication in which: * multiple voices can be acknowledged as valid; * the worth of one perspective is not measured by the denigration of another; and * difference is celebrated as conducive to learning rather than threatening to it. The contributors emphasize the characteristics of their dialectical view that set them apart from other dialectical authors and describe their methods of studying relationships from a dialectical perspective. Following the Bakhtinian perspective, they honor the values of dialogism by respecting different and sometimes contradictory views, assuming that these views can be valid, and joining in a discussion with the editors and other contributors about their emerging work. They also acknowledge that the chapters in this text are part of an ongoing process to frame and reframe emerging ideas, and allow the dialogue that occurs within this frame the freedom to express creative, unique ideas.

This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who gets caught in the Passion Trap? It's the catch-22 of romantic relationships: The more deeply one partner falls in love, the more distant the other becomes. This is the passion trap, an emotional dynamic that results in increasing desire and desperation in the "one-down" lover, and dissatisfaction, often mingled with guilt and withdrawal, in the "one-up." Now Dr. Dean Delis, a renowned psychologist who believes the passion trap is both common and curable, shows you how to change the patterns that threaten your relationship. Drawing from his counseling work with individuals and couples, he offers fresh insights and powerful, proven techniques--from Trial Closeness to Healthy Distance--to help you and your partner rekindle romance and discover a new equilibrium of love and desire for a lifetime of happiness.

Download or read book Dawn of Discovery written by Douglas C. Myers, PhD and published by Insightful Gains Unlimited. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dawn's colorful first light is a testament to new beginnings and perpetual renewal. It is a rousing panorama that beckons to all who treasure hope and its fulfillment. Each sunrise is a pleasant reminder of inspiration's influence on the human spirit when love makes its appearance. Everyone has the inherent right to feel loved unconditionally and be able to love fully. However, not all are able to sip from desire's cup filled with contentment. For many, the obscurity of night is extended without knowing of the dawn's resurrecting influence. Love relies on spirited recovery during the course of an endless journey. Each new dawn faithfully restores hope for the realization of purposeful possibilities during the day that follows. It is an awakening to the restoration of light. The certainty of dawn's repeated triumph over darkness exemplifies love's faithful and trustworthy nature. If sincere affection is a measure of feeling fulfilled, then what is love and how is it realized? Why is heartfelt love difficult to experience or maintain for many? What does it mean to 'fall in love'? What is fear's influence when seeking love's affirmation? These are some of the challenges in comprehending the mystery of love and its reward presented in this writing. The written text identifies what is necessary to feel loved as a child and to love fully as an adult. Requirements for experiencing the fullest extent of love are chronicled in the section 'Requisites Of Love', while also emphasized throughout the narrative presentation. Numerous quoted words and verse by popular persons of accomplishment enhance a seamless narrative progression. Original poems of the author throughout are dedicated to all who cherish the imaginative and sensitive emotion elicited through poetic expression. Each subchapter listing of love's requisites includes such a beginning. The concluding chapter titled 'Exploration and Reward' ends with a novel revelation of adventure and passion. Included in 'Answering Love's Call' is a final poem of desire's accomplishment by the author titled 'Awakening'. (Screen Reader Supported with Enhanced Typesetting) Recommended: This book will challenge you to evaluate and confront your courage on several levels. It will also expose your relationship with fear even if you didn't think you had one. Myers writes about feelings which is desperately needed and rarely understood. Overall, the book gives hope. Hope for our personal journey as well as a parent and partner. It allows us to get unstuck in parenting. This is a writing that 'stays with you', It leaves a mark on your soul. How do I know this? I find myself reflecting on Myers' thoughts and gaining strength to face the future. - Judy Wilde, M.A., Clinical Psychology I recommend this reading to anyone frustrated by fear's influence while desiring heartfelt pleasure in loving. - Lester L Carney, MA, Educator and Counseling Psychologist
