In new resources for individual psychological diagnosis wordt een onderzoekstechniek beschreven op basis van het werk van Gé Calis.

Tevens bouwt de benadering voort op het werk van beeldend kunstenaar Frans Coppelmans.

Dit onderzoeksinstrument richt zich zowel op de cognitie als op de emotie. Individuele gegevens worden verzameld door een subtiel samenspel tussen het onbewuste en bewuste in de mens.

Often, books about signal analysis and processing are either highly theoretical with high-level mathematics or contain oversimplified explanations which cannot answer the questions of how and why adequately. In this book, the writer attempts to explain the theory from a practical viewpoint, using a common-sense way of thinking. The theoretical principles described are mainly applied to speech sounds but the complex nature of these sounds makes this approach suitable to audio signals in general.

The book contains mathematical formulas, but sparsely used, serving as conclusions of the preceding explanations in ‘normal’ language. The more extended mathematical manipulations can be found in the appendice...

Over the last two centuries humans in the Western World have become the only species living at an ever-increasing productivity and consumption. This is an astonishing paradox as all cultures originally developed intuitive understanding of limitation, the frailty of existence and the sacredness of natural environments. In search of prosperity modern civilization has forgotten what intuition had learned and developed an economic system that was primarily concerned with making money in an elitis...

Socrates didn't operate as a midwife - contrary to what he said about himself.

Nor is it that God sent Adam to the world and then realised he had to send somebody extra, Eve,

My childhood was a dark time. My parents did not raise me. Therefore there was always a feeling of loneliness. I started to have problems with my eye sight. Decades later I found out that I have...

The human, the technical system, and the environment are the three elements for safety or three axes for the safety coordinate system. They have three mutual interactions. These form the six fundamental aspects for safety assessment system, represented by the Safety Cube. The Safety Cube is a theory, a method, and a game-changer for engineering safer products and systems.

This book is a spiritual biography. When I was 7 years old, some new playmates I just met almost buried me alive. When everything turned dark and I was lost in panic, my spirit detached itself from my body in order to find help.

Through experiments with hypnosis, out-of-body experiences and past life regression, it became more and more clear to me that body and mind are separate components, connected in a temporary way.

Besides this, I was fascinated to discover how by means of alternative...

Chronic stress is a widespread phenomenon putting health and well-being at risk for many people in Western materialist societies. Most of us experience high stress levels in our daily lives, and we seem to accept it as the price for living a “good” life. However, if we do not handle stress well, it can lead to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and mental disorders. Almost 50 percent of the people I trained and coached in the past year told me that they had experienced burnout, had just rec...

On average, mankind uses 1.7 Earths each year for raw materials, food and energy. Many countries even more. Most green initiatives call for action, but do not address the over-consumption and its causes. This manifesto shows our true escape: stop doing, degrowth and help Mother Earth to regenerate. Work with nature, not against it. The knowledge is still here.

People are doers and always call for action. But doing is exactly the root cause of the ecological problems we now face. All of our do...
