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,

in order to save it.

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...

Even 75 years after the end of World War II, Hollywood productions and the war’s battlefield sites continue to draw large audiences. Over the years, representations of the war have changed from a focus on its glory to its suffering though. The ideal “lest we forget” has been extended to “never again.” By drawing on interviews with actors in the field of remembrance and U.S. remembrance tourists, using Band of Brothers (1993 and 2001) as a case study, this thesis will critically disc...

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...

Nepal, the cradle of AUM, the spiritual sound that travels on a breeze of the wind.

A pop-up storybook awaits with temples, snowpowdered peaks, emerald green lakes and forests with rumbling cascades of white-blue icings, incredible wildlife, mystic scents of a thousand candles, and endless happiness.

Yet, this book tells the story of a pierced heart, forever broken ...

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.

These are the ideas of Charles John Alexander Jarvis written in rehab in Geel, Belgium in 2022. We must ask serious questions about forced hospitalization, I believe that a drug-free society is the future, but we will never realize this by force.
