Download or read book La afectividad masculina Edici n mexicana written by Walter Riso and published by Planeta México. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Cómo piensan los hombres? ¿Qué sienten? ¿Qué les preocupa? ¿Cuáles son sus miedos, preocupaciones y conflictos? Estas son las preguntas que este libro contesta, con herramientas de la psicología moderna y otras ciencias afines, poniendo al descubierto al hombre educado en la cultura patriarcal tradicional, sacando a relucir las intimidades de un mundo afectivo interior poco conocido, y proponiendo una nueva forma de vivir el amor y la sexualidad, más digna y más humana. Walter Riso propone una liberación afectiva masculina pacífica y no egoísta, donde se puedan potenciar las relaciones afectivas con la mujer, los hijos y los demás hombres.

Book Lo Que Toda Mujer Debe Saber Acerca de Los Hombres

Download or read book Lo Que Toda Mujer Debe Saber Acerca de Los Hombres written by Walter Riso and published by . This book was released on 2016-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stereotype of masculinity imposed on us by cultural norms is contradictory, absurd, and limits human affection. This model confronts social demands with personal needs, which is difficult to break free from without being branded as weak, cowardly, or a failure. Using this as a starting point in his clinical experiences and analysis of contemporary reality, the cognitive therapist Walter Riso puts these assumptions that govern our understanding of "masculinity" into question. This book, aimed primarily at women, shows how the archetype we have created is not only an impossible idealization, but it also causes emotional imbalance that sometimes harm individuals and affect their relationships within their families.

Book La afectividad masculina

Download or read book La afectividad masculina written by Walter Riso and published by . This book was released on 2012-09-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrariamente a lo que algunas mujeres suponen, no es fácil ser varón. El estereotipo de la masculinidad impuesto por la cultura constituye un concepto contradictorio, absurdo y limitante de la afectividad humana. Es un modelo que enfrenta a las exigencias sociales con las necesidades personales, y del que es muy difícil liberarse a riesgo de ser tachado de débil, cobarde o fracasado. Tomando como punto de partida su experiencia clínica y su análisis de la realidad contemporánea, el terapeuta cognitivo Walter Riso pone en tela de juicio las premisas que rigen el concepto que tenemos sobre lo que “debe” ser un hombre. El autor demuestra hasta qué punto el arquetipo que hemos creado no solamente es una idealización imposible de alcanzar, sino que provoca –precisamente por su imposibilidad– desajustes emocionales que dañan al individuo y afectan sus relaciones familiares y de pareja. Walter Riso es psicólogo, especialista en terapia cognitiva y magister en bioética. Desde hace veintiocho años trabaja como terapeuta, labor que alterna con el ejercicio de la cátedra universitaria, la realización de investigaciones en la práctica clínica y publicaciones científicas y de divulgación psicológica. Actualmente es profesor de terapia cognitiva en diferentes facultades de psicología en Latinoamérica y España y es presidente honorario de la Asociación Colombiana de Terapia Cognitiva.

Book The Book of Daniel

    Book Details:
  • Author : E.L. Doctorow
  • Publisher : Random House
  • Release : 2010-11-10
  • ISBN : 0307762955
  • Pages : 320 pages

Download or read book The Book of Daniel written by E.L. Doctorow and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-11-10 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central figure of this novel is a young man whose parents were executed for conspiring to steal atomic secrets for Russia. His name is Daniel Isaacson, and as the story opens, his parents have been dead for many years. He has had a long time to adjust to their deaths. He has not adjusted. Out of the shambles of his childhood, he has constructed a new life—marriage to an adoring girl who gives him a son of his own, and a career in scholarship. It is a life that enrages him. In the silence of the library at Columbia University, where he is supposedly writing a Ph.D. dissertation, Daniel composes something quite different. It is a confession of his most intimate relationships—with his wife, his foster parents, and his kid sister Susan, whose own radicalism so reproaches him. It is a book of memories: riding a bus with his parents to the ill-fated Paul Robeson concert in Peekskill; watching the FBI take his father away; appearing with Susan at rallies protesting their parents’ innocence; visiting his mother and father in the Death House. It is a book of investigation: transcribing Daniel’s interviews with people who knew his parents, or who knew about them; and logging his strange researches and discoveries in the library stacks. It is a book of judgments of everyone involved in the case—lawyers, police, informers, friends, and the Isaacson family itself. It is a book rich in characters, from elderly grand- mothers of immigrant culture, to covert radicals of the McCarthy era, to hippie marchers on the Pen-tagon. It is a book that spans the quarter-century of American life since World War II. It is a book about the nature of Left politics in this country—its sacrificial rites, its peculiar cruelties, its humility, its bitterness. It is a book about some of the beautiful and terrible feelings of childhood. It is about the nature of guilt and innocence, and about the relations of people to nations. It is The Book of Daniel.

Book The Failure of Modern Civilization and the Struggle for a  deep  Alternative

Download or read book The Failure of Modern Civilization and the Struggle for a deep Alternative written by Claudia von Werlhof and published by Beiträge zur Dissidenz. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western civilization is the Utopia of a better and higher life on Earth. The globalization of neo-liberalism proves that this project has failed. The paradigm of «Critical Theory of Patriarchy» explains this failure and discusses alternatives. By confronting the central civilizations in history, the egalitarian, life-oriented matriarchal one, and the hierarchical, nature and life dominating, hostile patriarchal one, we see that 5000 years of patriarchy have «replaced» matriarchies and nature itself by a «progressive» counter-world of «capital». This transformation characterizes «capitalist patriarchy» including «socialism». Its demise is due to the «alchemical» destruction of the world's resources, thought of, theologically legitimized and fetishized as «creation». This violence is not recognized. Elites have, instead, begun with a new «military alchemy», treating the whole Planet as weapon of mass destruction. Hence, the «Planetary Movement for Mother Earth».

Book Nomadic Subjects

    Book Details:
  • Author : Rosi Braidotti
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2011-05-24
  • ISBN : 023151526X
  • Pages : 345 pages

Download or read book Nomadic Subjects written by Rosi Braidotti and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2011-05-24 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than fifteen years, Nomadic Subjects has guided discourse in continental philosophy and feminist theory, exploring the constitution of contemporary subjectivity, especially the concept of difference within European philosophy and political theory. Rosi Braidotti's creative style vividly renders a productive crisis of modernity. From a feminist perspective, she recasts embodiment, sexual difference, and complex concepts through relations to technology, historical events, and popular culture. This thoroughly revised and expanded edition retains all but two of Braidotti's original essays, including her investigations into epistemology's relation to the "woman question;" feminism and biomedical ethics; European feminism; and the possible relations between American feminism and European politics and philosophy. A new piece integrates Deleuze and Guattari's concept of the "becoming-minoritarian" more deeply into modern democratic thought, and a chapter on methodology explains Braidotti's methods while engaging with her critics. A new introduction muses on Braidotti's provocative legacy.
