"I have listened and I have been quiet all my life. But now I will speak." One of the world's foremost experts on terrorism and post-traumatic stress disorder investigates her own unsolved adolescent sexual assault at the hands of a serial rapist, and in so doing, examines the horrors of trauma and denial. Alone in an unlocked house in a safe neighborhood in the suburban town of Concord, Massachusetts, two good, obedient girls, Jessica Stern, fifteen, and her sister, fourteen, were raped on the night of October 1, 1973. The girls had just come back from ballet lessons and were doing their homework when a strange man armed with a gun entered their home. Afterward, when they reported the crime, the police were skeptical. The rapist was never caught. For over thirty years, Stern denied the pain and the trauma of the assault. Following the example of her family, Stern—who lost her mother at the age of three, and whose father was a Holocaust survivor—focused on her work instead of her terror. She became a world-class expert on terrorism, a lauded academic and writer who interviewed terrorists around the globe. But while her career took off, her success hinged on her symptoms. After her ordeal she could not feel fear in normally frightening situations. Stern believed she'd disassociated from the trauma altogether, until a devoted police lieutenant reopened the sisters' rape case and brought her back to that harrowing night more than three decades past. With the help of the lieutenant, Stern began her own investigation—bringing to bear all her skills as a researcher—to uncover the truth about the town of Concord, her family, and her own mind. The result is Denial , a candid, courageous, and ultimately hopeful look at a trauma and its aftermath.

Mark Edmundson's essays reclaim college not as the province of high-priced tuition, career training, and interactive online courses, but as the place where serious people go to broaden their minds and learn to live the rest of their lives.
A renowned professor of English at the University of Virginia, Edmundson has felt firsthand the pressure on colleges to churn out a productive, high-caliber workforce for the future. Yet in these essays, many of which have run in places such as Harper's and the New York Times, he reminds us that there is more to education than greater productivity. With prose exacting yet expansive, tough-minded yet optimistic, Edmundson argues forcefully that the liberal arts are more important today than ever.
Why Teach? offers Edmundson's collected writings on the subject, including several pieces that are new and previously unpublished. What they show, collectively, is that higher learning is not some staid, old notion but a necessary remedy for our troubled times. Why Teach? is brimming with the wisdom and inspiration that make learning possible.

In 1922, F. Scott Fitzgerald announced his decision to write "something new--something extraordinary and beautiful and simple and intricately patterned." That extraordinary, beautiful, intricately patterned, and above all, simple novel became The Great Gatsby, arguably Fitzgerald's finest work and certainly the book for which he is best known. A portrait of the Jazz Age in all of its decadence and excess, Gatsby captured the spirit of the author's generation and earned itself a permanent place in American mythology. Self-made, self-invented millionaire Jay Gatsby embodies some of Fitzgerald's--and his country's--most abiding obsessions: money, ambition, greed, and the promise of new beginnings. "Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter--tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning--" Gatsby's rise to glory and eventual fall from grace becomes a kind of cautionary tale about the American Dream.
It's also a love story, of sorts, the narrative of Gatsby's quixotic passion for Daisy Buchanan. The pair meet five years before the novel begins, when Daisy is a legendary young Louisville beauty and Gatsby an impoverished officer. They fall in love, but while Gatsby serves overseas, Daisy marries the brutal, bullying, but extremely rich Tom Buchanan. After the war, Gatsby devotes himself blindly to the pursuit of wealth by whatever means--and to the pursuit of Daisy, which amounts to the same thing. "Her voice is full of money," Gatsby says admiringly, in one of the novel's more famous descriptions. His millions made, Gatsby buys a mansion across Long Island Sound from Daisy's patrician East Egg address, throws lavish parties, and waits for her to appear. When she does, events unfold with all the tragic inevitability of a Greek drama, with detached, cynical neighbor Nick Carraway acting as chorus throughout. Spare, elegantly plotted, and written in crystalline prose, The Great Gatsby is as perfectly satisfying as the best kind of poem.

《自体心理学的理论与实践》是为那些已经在使用或者计划使用已故的海因兹·科胡特（HeinzKohut）关于自体心理学的概念的专业人士，如精神分析和心理治疗工作者，提供一些洞察和指导。通过对理论与实践的整合，《自体心理学的理论与实践》作者怀特、韦纳从自己的治疗经验中提供个案素材，向人们展示如何将自体心理学运用到各类来访者身上，其结果不仅使人受益，而且令人振奋，有时还充满着惊喜。 编辑推荐 《自体心理学的理论与实践》可以说是目前为止最好的经典自体心理学的入门著作之一。精神分析初学者开始接触自体心理学时，如果上来就阅读自体心理学创始人科胡特的著作，如《自体的分析》、《自体的重建》、《精神分析治愈之道》等等，会感到十分吃力。科胡特本人在经典精神分析以及自我心理学中都有深厚造诣，而当时他所处的时代需要他向传统精神分析学者给出自体心理学的答复回应，所以初学者很容易因其著作中呈现出的多种精神分析观点与自体心理学观点的交错而迷惑，无法直接轻松理解和把握自体心理学的基本概念和实操框架。而《自体心理学的理论与实践》则帮助初学者跨越了这一学习的鸿沟。两位作者怀特、韦纳是跟随科胡特多年的嫡传弟子，结合自己丰富的临床精神分析治疗和案例督导经验，用清晰的条理有力地阐述了自体心理学。

为什么称本书为“真正的”心理咨询宝典呢？因为在阅读它时，我总能从灵魂深处爆发出一种共鸣。在观赏作者对理论的细致解读与案例的生动描述时，时常会发现，自己在人生不同阶段中的一些内心体验的片段被赤裸裸地剖析、袒露了，似乎自己的内心从来没有被别人这样深刻地理解、触摸过，除了一种醍醐灌顶的舒畅之外，更有对自体心理学模式下共情方式的欣赏与赞叹。传说中贴近体验的共情，原本是如此的感人、诱人，让人在一瞥之间已然欲罢不能。 ——吉莉

There is plenty of lying going on in psychotherapy offices to be found in Irvin D. Yalom's novel Lying on the Couch, and the lying is of every type defined in your average modern dictionary. Among those doing the lying are Carolyn, who hopes to ruin the career of psychotherapist Ernest Lash because she believes his advice led her husband to seek a divorce. Then there is the gambler whose plan is to lure another psychotherapist into malpractice so he can sue and pay off his debts. In Yalom's world, the relationship between therapist and patient is a tricky one indeed, and it's sometimes hard to tell who needs advice and counseling more--the patient lying on the couch or therapist sitting nearby.

张岱是公认的明代散文大家，其传世名著《陶庵梦忆》、《西湖梦寻》等堪称晚明小品文的代表。他出身仕宦家庭，早年衣食无忧，性喜游山玩水，深谙园林布置之法。但四十九岁那年，清兵入关，张岱的人生遭逢重大转折。他带着幸存的家人逸隐于绍兴龙山，务农为生，余生力修明史，八十八岁方成，是为《石匮书》，书成后不久亡故。
个人历史与家国历史相互映照、无法切割。面对挡不住的历史洪流，还归龙山是张岱的一个选择，能自主画下的一条人生界线。不论是怀志一生纂修的《石匮书》，还是《陶庵梦忆》里一幅幅简约、多情善感的前朝旧事，镶框着家族轶事与大时代的层层跌宕与悲喜交错──张岱一生的浮华与苍凉，在梦与忆的交错摆荡之间，隐隐浮现。
史景迁认为张岱不仅是史家，也是热爱历史的文人。他书写张岱的一生、内心转折及过往追忆的同时，更深层探讨张岱身为知识分子，是如何借由回忆以及修史确立自身的存在价值。在得与失之间，唯有捕捉消逝的回忆，以书写对抗遗忘，才能坦然面对、甚或抵抗世事的变迁与生命的无常；这一点，无疑反映了历史与书写的本质与关系。

The New Psychoanalysis explores and explains important developments in psychoanalytic thought and practice since Freud's death in 1939. Drawing on the experience of her many years of clinical work with patients, as well as research and teaching in the training institutes she directs, Phyllis W. Meadow offers convincing testimony of the power of the unconscious forces that drive our thinking, feeling, and behaving. She shows how the mind unfolds in the face of tensions native to the unconscious life and how psychoanalysis is applicable to the full range of emotional disorders. This highly accessible book is ideal for the therapist or psychologist, as well as the social theorist or general reader, who is concerned with the hold of aggression on the lives of human beings facing a world still as violent and destructive as it was in Freud's day. The introduction, by Charles Lemert, provides a challenging essay on the connections between psychoanalytic and social theories.
