Super Mind

Super Mind

Norman E. Rosenthal

TarcherPerigee
2017
nidottu
The noted research psychiatrist and New York Times-bestselling author explores how Transcendental Meditation permanently alters your daily consciousness, resulting in greater productivity, emotional resilience, and aptitude for success. Most of us believe that we live in only three states of consciousness: wakefulness, sleep, and dreaming. But there is so much more. In Super Mind, clinical psychiatrist and bestselling author Norman E. Rosenthal, M.D., shows how the incredibly simple daily practice of Transcendental Meditation (TM) can permanently improve your state of mind during the routine hours of waking life--placing you into a super-mind state of consciousness where you consistently perform at peak aptitude. In his most ambitious and practical book yet, Rosenthal shows how TM is more than a tool for destressing or for general wellness. It is a gateway to functioning physically, emotionally, and intellectually at levels we never knew we could attain. Written in Rosenthal's trademark style of restraint and intellectual carefulness, Super Mind explores how we can aspire to so much more than we ever thought possible. From the Hardcover edition.

Sexuality in Adolescence considers the latest theory and research on adolescent development, focusing on sexuality as a vital aspect of normal, healthy maturation. Biological changes are discussed within a social context, and the latest research is presented on key issues of our time, including changes in teenage sexual behaviours and beliefs, sexual risk-taking, body dissatisfaction, sex education, teen pregnancy and abortion. Susan Moore and Doreen Rosenthal explore the roles of parents, peers, the media, social institutions and youth culture in adolescent sexual adjustment. This volume covers topical issues ranging from the role of the internet in adolescent romance to the pros and cons of abstinence education versus harm minimization. Issues, such as whether there are male-female differences in desire, sexuality, motives for sex, and beliefs about romance are examined, along with the question of whether a sexual double standard still exists. Maladaptive aspects of sexual development, including sexual risk-taking, disease, unplanned pregnancy, and sexual coercion are also covered. This fully revised and updated second edition also addresses the crucial issues of:sexual minority adolescentsthe social determinants of adolescent sexualitysexual health as opposed to sexual illness.

Moving Out, Moving On

Shelley Mallett; Doreen Rosenthal; Deb Keys; Roger Averill

Routledge
2009
sidottu
Based on rich interview data drawn from a large scale longitudinal study of homeless young people, this book examines the personal, familial and structural factors that impact on homeless young people’s long-term outcomes. While telling the personal stories of young people’s experiences, the book refers to the wider research and policy literature on youth homelessness, engaging with key debates about the causes and meanings of homelessness in western societies. The book addresses important issues such as employment and education, engagement with services, social support, connection to family and friends, as well as personal factors including physical and mental health, sexual practices and drug use. Homeless young people are typically portrayed as leading chaotic, risky lives, trapped in a downward spiral of drug use, mental and other health problems, and long-term homelessness. By giving voice to young homeless people, this book challenges this stereotype and demonstrates young people's capacity to move out of homelessness and make satisfactory lives for themselves.Research findings are positioned in the context of a broad, international literature on youth homelessness and is important reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of psychology, sociology, youth and social work as well as researchers, policy makers and service providers in all western cultures.

The State You See

The State You See

Aaron J. Rosenthal

THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN PRESS
2023
nidottu
The State You See uncovers a racial gap in the way the American government appears in people’s lives. It makes it clear that public policy changes over the last fifty years have driven all Americans to distrust the government that they see in their lives, even though Americans of different races are not seeing the same kind of government.For white people, these policy changes have involved a rising number of generous benefits submerged within America’s tax code, which taken together cost the government more than Social Security and Medicare combined. Political attention focused on this has helped make welfare and taxes more visible representations of government for white Americans. As a result, white people are left with the misperception that government does nothing for them, apart from take their tax money to spend on welfare. Distrust of government is the result. For people of color, distrust is also rampant but for different reasons. Over the last fifty years, America has witnessed increasingly overbearing policing and swelling incarceration numbers. These changes have disproportionately impacted communities of color, helping to make the criminal legal system a unique visible manifestation of government in these communities.While distrust of government emerges in both cases, these different roots lead to different consequences. White people are mobilized into politics by their distrust, feeling that they must speak up in order to reclaim their misspent tax dollars. In contrast, people of color are pushed away from government due to a belief that engaging in American elections will yield the same kind of unresponsiveness and violence that comes from interactions with the police. The result is a perpetuation of the same kind of racial inequality that has always been present in American democracy. The State You See is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding how the American government engages in subtle forms of discrimination and how it continues to uphold racial inequality in the present day.

Partisan Politics, Divided Government, and the Economy

Partisan Politics, Divided Government, and the Economy

Alberto Alesina; Howard Rosenthal

Cambridge University Press
1995
pokkari
This book develops an integrated approach to understanding the American economy and national elections. Economic policy is generally seen as the result of a compromise between the President and Congress. Because Democrats and Republicans usually maintain polarised preferences on policy, middle-of-the-road voters seek to balance the President by reinforcing in Congress the party not holding the White House. This balancing leads, always, to relatively moderate policies and, frequently, to divided government. The authors outline the rational partisan business cycle, where Republican administrations begin with recessions, and Democratic ones with expansions, and the midterm cycle, where the President’s party loses votes in the midterm congressional election. The book argues that both cycles are the result of uncertainty about the outcome of presidential elections. Other topics covered include retrospective voting on the economy, coat-tails, and incumbency advantage.

The Hypothyroid Sourcebook

The Hypothyroid Sourcebook

M. Sara Rosenthal

McGraw-Hill Professional
2002
nidottu
This is everything you need to about: managing your weight with The Hypothyroid Diet; regaining your energy with The Hypothyroid Active Living Program; and, fighting fatigue, depression, and other hypothyroid symptoms 'drug-free' with The Hypothyroid Herbal and Wellness Program. You're cold, tired, and depressed. You haven't changed your eating habits, but you're gaining weight. No, you're not going mad, but you may be suffering from hypothyroidism - a condition that slows down all bodily functions dramatically as the result of an underactive thyroid gland or a thyroid gland that was surgically removed. In "The Hypothyroid Sourcebook", author M. Sara Rosenthal, a thyroid cancer survivor and author of the bestselling "The Thyroid Sourcebook", offers a completely new, proactive hypothyroid living program - one that can complement conventional therapy for hypothyroidism. Not only can hypothyroidism cause sensitivity to cold, weight gain, and extreme fatigue but depression, aches and pains, constipation, brittle hair and nails, and chest pains as well. Because these symptoms are wide-ranging and attributable to other causes, hypothyroidism often remains undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Here Rosenthal tells you how to determine if this condition is the source of your health problems and, if so, how to work with your doctor when deciding among the various treatment options. This unique, proactive hypothyroid plan includes the author's own Hypothyroid Diet, Active Living Program, and Herbal and Wellness Program. As a companion on the road to recovery, "The Hypothyroid Sourcebook" will provide answers to essential questions, including: How can I tell if my symptoms are the result of hypothyroidism or some other condition? Will I have more energy once I get my hypothyroidism treated? Does thyroid hormone replacement therapy have any side effects? Will hypothyroidism affect my pregnancy or post-pregnancy? And, where can I go to find more information?

Crown under Law

Crown under Law

Alexander S. Rosenthal

Lexington Books
2008
sidottu
Crown under Law is an account of how and why the constitutional idea arose in early modern England. The book focuses on two figures—Richard Hooker and John Locke. Rosenthal represents Hooker as a transitional figure who follows in the medieval natural law tradition even while laying the groundwork for Locke's political thought. The book challenges the influential interpretation of Locke by Leo Strauss (who saw Locke as a radical modernist) by illustrating the lines of continuity between Locke's argument in the Two Treatises of Government and the earlier political tradition represented by Hooker. By illustrating the often distinctive manner in which Hooker addressed the great questions, and how he powerfully affected later developments such as Locke's conception of the state, Rosenthal's Crown under Law establishes the important place of Richard Hooker in the history of political thought.

Never Again?

Never Again?

Joel H. Rosenthal; Peter Ronayne

Rowman Littlefield Publishers
2001
nidottu
Peter Ronayne's Never Again? provides the reader with a provocative and comprehensive first look at American foreign policy as it relates to the prevention and punishment of genocide since the Holocaust. In the aftermath of World War II the United States and the world pledged to "never again" allow genocidal atrocities. Never Again? reveals that too often this bold promise has been a failed promise. The book chronicles how the United States has repeatedly missed opportunities or "ethical leadership moments" to stand up for human rights and save hundreds of thousands of lives when faced with genocide in Cambodia, Bosnia and Rwanda. At the same time, Ronayne explores how the U.S. has taken important action to bring about justice in the aftermath of genocidal crimes, despite its initial reluctance to even ratify the Genocide Convention. From this dual record of striking failures and important accomplishments emerge provocative questions about the United States' leadership on the world stage, global ethics and morality, and America's commitment to genocide prevention and punishment in the 21st century.

Ethics and International Relations

Ethics and International Relations

Joel H. Rosenthal

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2009
sidottu
This volume offers a new dimension to realist theories about world politics. It questions both the theoretical and empirical foundations of much of traditional realist thought by offering realist-oriented analyses that emphasize the possibilities of cooperation and accommodation through agreement over common motivations and concerns. The articles in this volume demonstrate that moral considerations can and do play a significant role in shaping state behavior and that despair about the possibility of improving the systems and institutions within which we live is unwarranted. Specific points of normative convergence are raised in some detail, especially on issues of war, membership and authority, humanitarian concern and the social consequences of globalization. Three ethical concepts form the core of the 'realism reconsidered' argued for here, namely, the ideas of pluralism, rights and fairness.
