Bøger af Michael White

"Bogen er et værdigt monument over et meget væsentligt bidrag til udvidelsen af den horisont, hvori vi tænker det andet menneske og os selv, og dermed af det farvand, som terapeuter, coaches og HR-folk - og ikke mindst filosoffer - arbejder i [...] Whites tænkning er filosofi, når den er bedst, nemlig på én gang praktisk  - den er fundamentalt etisk - og praktiseret, den bringer virkeligheden et stykke nærmere til os [...] Det er altid livsnødvendigt at læse Michael White."Ole Fogh Kirkeby, Psykolog NytI denne bog giver Michael White en række eksempler fra sine mere end 20 års erfaring som narrativ terapeut. Whites udgangspunkt er, at den narrative terapi ikke tilbyder et fastlagt arsenal af samtaleformer, der kan bruges i enhver situation. Tværtimod må den narrative terapeut forholde sig åbent i mødet med klienten og lade den konkrete situation diktere terapien. Whites eksempler skal dermed først og fremmest inspirere til videre selvstændigt arbejde. BBogen opregner seks centrale teknikker, som går igen i Whites praksis som narrativ terapeut: (1) eksternaliserende samtaler, (2) genforfattende samtaler, (3) genmedlemsgørende samtaler, (4) definerende ceremonier, (5) samtaler der fokuserer på unikke hændelser og (6) stilladserende samtaler. Gennemgående viser White, hvordan de historier, klienterne fortæller om sig selv, ofte låser dem fast i bestemte uheldige handlingsmønstre. Han giver konstruktive forslag til, hvordan man som terapeut kan ændre på disse fortællinger og dermed bidrage til at skabe en bedre tilværelse. Michael White (1948-2008) var grundlægger af den narrative metode inden for terapi og socialt arbejde. Han grundlagde i sin tid The Dulwich Centre i Adelaide, Australien, hvor han gennem en lang årrække afholdt kurser og workshops i narrativ terapi. Siden brød han med The Dulwich Centre og grundlagde et nyt center, Adelaide Narrative Therapy Centre, hvor han fortsatte sit arbejde. Kort over narrative landskaber er kulminationen på Whites arbejde. Både fordi den giver et enestående overblik over hans narrative metoder, og fordi den blev hans sidste bog. White døde tragisk umiddelbart inden udgivelsen af denne danske oversættelse. Oversat fra engelsk efter Maps of Narrative Practice af Ole Thornye.

Michael White er en af grundlæggerne af den narrative metode inden for terapi og socialt arbejde. Den narrative metode tager udgangspunkt i poststrukturalismen, som gør op med forestillingen om dybere, bagvedliggende sandheder, som det er videnskabens opgave at finde frem til. Hovedtanken bag den narrative metode er, at der ikke findes én sand historie, men utallige mulige historier, et menneske kan fortælle om sit liv. Igennem den narrative terapi skaber terapeut og klient i fællesskab alternative historier om klienten, som giver et nyt perspektiv på klientens fortid, nutid og fremtid. Allan Holmgren skriver i bogens forord om den narrative metode: ”En klient, der ankommer til en terapi-session, medbringer sine særlige begreber, forståelsesrammer og historier. Disse udøver magt over klienten i dennes beretning om sit konkrete og kropslige liv. Denne magt er, hvad narrativ terapi først og fremmest interesserer sig for. Hverken terapeut eller klient opfattes som passive og autentiske repræsentanter for en sandhed om livet og terapien. Terapeuten er ikke en ekspert. Terapeuten er heller ikke neutral. Terapeuter har ikke adgang til sand viden om menneskers liv.” I Narrativ teori præsenteres det teoretiske fundament bag Michael Whites narrative metode. De teoretiske beskrivelser ledsages af kliniske vignetter fra Whites arbejde med børn, voksne og familier. MICHAEL WHITE bor i Australien. Han er en efterspurgt foredragsholder over hele verden og har flere gange besøgt Danmark. Med bøgerne Narrativ teori og Narrativ praksis foreligger for første gang en samling af Michael Whites grundlæggende tekster på dansk. Narrativ praksis handler om, hvordan der arbejdes med den narrative metode i den terapeutiske praksis.

Der findes utallige historier, et menneske kan fortælle om sit liv. Vi har en tendens til at blive den historie, vi fortæller. Dette er udgangspunktet for den narrative metode. Michael White er en af grundlæggerne af den narrative metode inden for terapi og socialt arbejde, og denne bog viser, hvordan han arbejder med metoden i sin terapeutiske praksis. White er kendt for sin fantasifulde tilgang til det terapeutiske arbejde. Han er udholdende i sin udfordring af klienternes negative selvopfattelse og arbejder med en ukuelig optimisme på at hjælpe mennesker til mere positive fortolkninger af deres oplevelser. For meningen i disse oplevelser er ikke givet på forhånd: meningen skabes, idet klienten fortæller sin historie om oplevelserne. I den narrative terapi skaber terapeut og klient således i fællesskab alternative historier, som giver et nyt perspektiv på klientens fortid, nutid og fremtid. I terapien arbejder man med at eksternalisere problemet, dvs. placere det uden for det enkelte menneske. Det er med Michael Whites ord ”ikke personen der er problemet, men problemet der er problemet”. MICHAEL WHITE bor i Australien. Han er en efterspurgt foredragsholder over hele verden og har flere gange besøgt Danmark. Med bøgerne Narrativ praksis og Narrativ teori foreligger for første gang en samling af Michael Whites grundlæggende tekster på dansk. I Narrativ teori præsenteres de teoretiske overvejelser, der udgør fundamentet for den narrative metode.

Denne vidtfavnende, kloge og praksisbaserede bog viser, hvordan man i praksis kan benytte narrative ideer i traumebehandling af voksne, par og/eller børn. Bogens bidrag er hentet fra hele verden og dens fokus er, at ingen mennesker er passive modtagere af svigt, overgreb, tortur eller andre former for traumatiserende handlinger; mennesker vil altid møde traumatiserende begivenheder med en modhandling.Bogen viser, hvordan terapeutisk arbejde med traumatiserede mennesker i væsentlig grad handler om genetablering af personens relation til sig selv og fornemmelse af sig selv i lyset af de traumatiske oplevelser. Bl.a. bidrager den australske terapeut Michael White, der mere end nogen anden har sat sig for at koble hukommelsesteori, udviklingspsykologi og terapeutiske metoder til en praksis, der med uendelig respekt for menneskers viden og færdigheder i relation til deres eget liv kan hjælpe mennesker fri af de traumatiske oplevelsers fortsatte negative indflydelse på deres liv.

I 1966 falder opsynsmanden ved Medici-kapellet over et mystisk gammelt dokument i kapellets krypt. Det er tydeligt, at der er tale om en slags dagbog eller journal, men han kender ikke sproget og må søge assistance. Når han har fået sin nysgerrighed stillet, har han naturligvis til hensigt at aflevere dokumentet til myndighederne, men inden han når så langt, bliver han opsøgt af to mindre behagelige typer, der truer ham til at udlevere det.40 år senere arbejder et hold forskere i krypten med at undersøge de jordiske rester af Medici-slægten ved hjælp af den nyeste dna-teknologi. Ved undersøgelsen af det lig, der angiveligt skulle være et af slægtens mest fremtrædende medlemmer, Cosimo de’ Medici, falder holdet over en lille stentavle inde i hans balsamerede lig. Samme aften myrdes forskerholdets leder, Carlin Mackenzie, men inden da har han nået at lægge en kryptisk besked til sin niece, Edie Granger, der også arbejder på projektet.Sammen med sin ven, historikeren Jeff Martin, prøver Edie at tyde den kryptiske besked, der føre dem på en farefuld færd rundt i Firenzes og Venedigs gader på jagt efter lede tråde, der kan føre dem til Mediciernes hemmelighed, og samtidig hober ligene sig op i kølvandet på dem.OM BOGENDe læsere, som læste Michael Whites første bog på dansk "Ritualet" vil heller ikke blive skuffet med denne nye titel. Forfatteren har tydeligvis styr på sin research og klarer fortrinligt bogens skift mellem nutidens Firenze og Venedig og datidens middelalderlige periode. ... Bogen er tillige meget underholdende og velskrevet, og med en handling i samme genre som Da Vinci Mysteriet og lignende titler skal denne udmærkede spændingsroman nok finde sine læsere.

On a cold February night in 1909, the nephew of President Theodore Roosevelt tumbled out of a window at Harvard and fell five stories to his death. "An accident," swore the coroner; "a horrible tragedy," stated the family; "a sobering loss," announced the College - and everyone agreed.
