Kan psykedeliske stoffer være en måde at tænke anderledes om dødsangst, depression og alderdom på? Ja, kan de ændre vores syn på verden? Michael Pollan tager os på en gribende og fascinerende rejse fra genkomsten af psilocybin og LSD i psykiatrisk forskning og ud mod sindets horisonter og muligheder.Da LSD blev opdaget i 1940’erne, troede lægerne, de stod på tærsklen af en psykologisk revolution. De så overvældende resultater i behandlingen af lidelser som afhængighed og depression – og mulighed for at bruge de psykedeliske stoffer til at undersøge bevidsthedens mysterier. Men optimismen varede ikke ved. Da ungdomsoprøret rullede ind over USA i 1960’erne, blev de psykedeliske stoffer koblet til modkulturen og presset ud af universiteterne og politisk under jorden. I 40 år turde ingen tage forskningen op.Lige indtil et umage par – en Silicon Valley-ingeniør der bor i en skov og en højt estimeret, ranglet professor med hang til meditation – i 2006 fik godkendt et studie på det prestigefyldte universitet Johns Hopkins.I dag er en stille, men gennemgribende revolution i gang. Studier viser, at dødeligt syge kræftpatienter kan håndtere deres dødsangst efter at være guidet af en psykolog gennem en psilocybinoplevelse. USA’s og EU’s lægemiddelmyndigheder finansierer enorme studier i psykedeliske stoffer, fordi man håber, de kan afhjælpe den truende depressionsbølge, der er ved at slå ind over den vestlige verden. I London er det første center for psykedelisk forskning åbnet. Og på Rigshospitalet undersøger man effekterne på hjernen.I ‘Din foranderlige bevidsthed’ fortæller Michael Pollan på varm, uhelbredeligt nysgerrig og sober vis historien om de psykedeliske stoffer. Han beskriver, hvad der skete, da det første forskningskapitel blev fortrængt, og hvordan det andet folder sig ud lige nu. Han tager os på en rejse ind i en verden af psykologer, shamaner og svampejægere, der beretter om exceptionelle oplevelser med dyb og forandrende effekt. Kigger med i hjernescanneren, når forskerne viser, hvordan det netværk i hjernen, der er knyttet til vores selv, dæmpes. Og endelig prøver han (for første gang i en alder af næsten 60) stofferne selv.En rapport fra det, der meget vel kan være fremtiden for vores psykologi og vores forskning i bevidsthed.

Den franske psykoanalytiker, filosof og semiotiker Félix Guattari udvider i sit essay De tre økologier definitionen af økologi til at omfatte sociale relationer ogmenneskelig subjektivitet, samt naturligvis miljøhensyn. I essayetargumenterer han for, at de økologiske kriser, der truer vores planet,er et direkte resultat af en ny udvidet form for kapitalisme, og at dermå etableres en ny økosofisk tilgang, der respekterer forskellene mellem alle levende systemer. Bogen rummer en markant kapitalismekritik og eret manifest for en ny måde at tænke på. Desuden er bogen en ideelintroduktion til en af Europas mest radikale tænkere. De tre økologier blev udgivet 1989, og er på 30 års afstand uhyggeligt vedkommende ogprofetisk, set i lyset af datidens økologiske kriser og de aktuelleproblemstillinger i 2019.*De tre økologier — Félix GuattariappendiksEfterord — Anders AbildgaardEksistentielle territorier — Peter BorumMaskinel Animisme — Angela Melitopoulos & Maurizio Lazzarato

En analytisk livskvalitets rejse. Målet: det naturlige, legende og utopiske menneske, der lever i fred, frihed og harmoni.Søren Leth Jørgensen:"For ca. 40 år siden begyndte jeg at interessere mig for psykologi da jeg havde mange psykiske problemer, og da jeg ikke kunne finde nogen bøger der for alvor kunne hjælpe mig, begyndte jeg selv at udvikle min egen psykologi. Dengang for ca. 30 år siden var det helt store at prøve at forstå og definere livskvalitetsbegrebet. Og da det lykkes mig var det som at få en øjneåbner som jeg kunne skrive en bog over og omkring, og som ikke bare handler om psykologi, men også antropologi, sociologi og kristendommen. I år 2003 udkom min første bog som hedder Leg med glæden, og den har jeg så bare som årene er gået udgivet flere gange med forbedringer hver gang. Hvilket så i dag er blevet til bogen Leg, glæde, lykke og naturlighed. Jeg er udlært bygningssnedker og har arbejdet som det en årrække, så jeg har ingen boglig uddannelse, men har måttet tage ved lære hen ad vejen. I år 2000 blev jeg førtidspensionist, og fik derved frie hænder til at hellige mig mit skrivearbejde og selvterapi helt."

In the last decade, a great variety and volume of scholarly work has appeared on mind-wandering, a mental process involving a vast range of human life, connected with "e;first-person perspective"e; and "e;personhood"e;, submental thinking, mental autonomy, etc. While different and emerging features that flow into and out of one another (second field, mental travel, visual imagery, inner speech, unspecific memory, autobiographical memory, fantasies, introspection, etc.) and negative and positive approaches seem to describe mind-wandering, we offer an interdisciplinary theoretical and empirically informed and informative overview on mind-wandering studies and methodologies oriented toward the educational field. The aim is to transform and enrich the debate on mind-wandering but also to show how theoretical arguments and research findings could inform the teaching-learning context.This groundbreaking book, moves along three representations of developed scientific knowledge: imaginary lines, circles and spirals. The first section, "e;The Lines"e;, develops new lines of inquiry on attention (selective and sustained) and mind-wandering, the influence of age and mind-wandering, embodiment, consciousness and experience and mind-wandering. In the second section, the "e;Circles"e;, groups of Chapters on the same topic, methodology (tasks and measurement), intervention (auditory beat stimulation and mindfulness practices) and creativity, recreate a dance of interacting parts in which there are always profitable, decisive and retroactive exchanges between the information that each group or author activates. The last section, "e;The Spirals"e;, critically discusses the absence of a unified theoretical perspective, in the pedagogical field, attentive both to the processes of emergence and the interactions between parts. 

This handbook on human multitasking provides an integrative overview on simultaneous and sequential multitasking and thus combines theorizing on dual task limitations as well as costs related to task switching.

Using real-life data to better understand people's behavior in their natural environmentsReal-life and real-time data collection methods offer unprecedented opportunities to advance the understanding and promotion of physical and mental health. Everyday assessments offer valuable insights into the behavior of individuals in their natural environment, providing a more complete picture than experimental studies conducted in the laboratory. These insights can also be used to design more effective interventions to promote physical and mental health, for example, by tailoring intervention content to individual states using predictive algorithms.This volume shows that person-level moderators and contextual factors are crucial to consider when studying everyday life behaviors in the context of health and disease. Contributions include studies that primarily use digitally supported, multidimensional assessments in everyday life over a period of up to four weeks. Self-report and objective measures, such as current social media use or different biological parameters, are also used to address research questions in clinical and health psychology.
