MEET THE SOUL MAGICIANS WHO FIRST TRIED TO UNCOVER THE MYSTERY OF THE UNCONSCIOUS. Its the beginning of the twentieth century, and members of the Wednesday Circle hurry through Viennas darkening streets. Dr. Freud does not tolerate lateness, and the men invited to join his new society sense they are on the brink of something momentous. In his study, through a haze of cigar smoke, these early psychoanalysts alight on a profound and shocking idea that will alter modern life: the existence of the psyche.In this entertaining history, psychologist Steve Ayan introduces the twentieth-century visionaries who ignited a revolution of the mind. It is a story of breakthroughs in the treatment of mental illness, but also of dubious dream interpretations, affairs with patients, and feuding factions. At a moment when therapy has become a cultural commonplace, Ayan offers a captivating portrait of the figures behind these pioneering theories, from Melanie Klein to Carl Jung.Blending immersive storytelling with rigorous research, Soul Magic returns us to the origins of psychotherapy and the thinkers who first pulled back the curtain on the mysterious forces at work within us all.PRAISE FOR SOUL MAGIC:Evocative storytelling. . . invites us to reconsider the legendary who shaped our talking cure Julia Bueno, author of Everyones a CriticA brilliant writerTages AnziegerCaptivating. . .

Nem tudo o que sentimos encontra palavras. Este livro tenta. Uma coletânea de textos e reflexões sobre memória, identidade e transformação, onde o cotidiano se torna ponto de partida para compreender

Este livro foi cultivado a partir das experiencias de palhaço ou clown, teatrais, bem como de pesquisas de mestrado e doutorado na França e no Brasil ao longo de 20 anos. A experiencia foi a base do treinamento empirico deste palhaço e ator, o que naturalmente estimulou a necessidade de compreende-la e ensina-la. Assim, o dialogo entre pratica, teoria e formaço e a base desta obra, cujo objetivo e promover uma reflexo em tres niveis sobre o jogo da palhaçaria: a criaço de numeros curtos e espetaculos por meio do jogo; a busca por uma teoria da palhaçaria e experimentaçes de ensino atraves da pedagogia do prazer. A investigaço teve inicio no Brasil e se desenvolveu em quatro paises europeus (Belgica, França, Italia e Portugal), por meio de apresentaçes, residencias artisticas, workshops e encontros com artistas. A busca por uma pratica artistica pessoal pode desencadear uma caminhada sui generis devido as particularidades inerentes ao objeto de estudo. A criaço artistica possui uma metodologia propria, desenvolvida pelo artista durante seus momentos de criaço e reflexo. O material de partida, caotico, e gradualmente transformado em algo concreto e perceptivel pelo pesquisador e por outros, estimulando uma apreciaço estetica por emoçes, imagens e conhecimentos.

Ian Robertson Hamilton was an unknown law student at Glasgow University until Christmas Eve 1950. On that night, assisted by Alan Stewart, Gavin Vernon and Kay Matheson, he took the Stone of Destiny from beneath the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey and in doing so became a Scottish national hero. In England, however, the act had the opposite effect and a manhunt for the vulgar vandals was started to satisfy the outrage of the English establishment and bring them to justice. In the end, the Stone was given up, but the gang were not charged. This solitary act set Hamilton on a path for the rest of his life from which he has not diverged. Although, it is now nearly sixty years since that fateful night, it is the actual events surrounding the taking of the Stone which hold people spellbound when Hamilton recounts them. In this book, Ian Hamilton has set down the chain of events which led to his decision to go to London, remove the Stone and a minute-by-minute account of the act and the aftermath. But this is not simply a retelling of a stunt that made nationwide news, it is a book about how a nations conscience was stirred by a symbolic act that changed lives of many. A major Hollywood film starring Robert Carlyle and Billy Boyd.

Il clacson di uno scooter che transita impaziente la fa sussultare. Beato chi ha fretta di raggiungere un luogo prima che si affolli, o ha una persona da incontrare prima che salga su di un treno e lasci la citta, pensa Lea Pistacchi. È il 13 luglio e quella sera si terra il Ballo dei pompieri: le porte delle caserme di Parigi saranno aperte per tutti e Lea non intende mancare. I programmi, pero, raramente vanno come pianificati e mentre inganna il tempo fino allinizio della festa, simbatte, nei pressi del Centre Pompidou, in Noel, un Setter Inglese scarmigliato, solo e senza collare, che se ne sta seduto sulle zampe posteriori ad ammirare la Tristezza del Re di Matisse

We sat on our bags and waited, our cargo piled high beside us. The tide lapped at the stone wall below us, and in that moment, with the land behind and the sea in front, I felt the first real jolt of what we were doing. This is real.

Operational Intelligence: The Power of Digital, Data and AI is a practical and values-led guide for education leaders navigating the realities of digital transformation.Schools and colleges are awash with data. Attendance records, assessment results, safeguarding logs, financial reports, surveys and system analytics generate a constant stream of information. Yet despite this abundance, many institutions remain "data rich but insight poor" - managing fragmented systems, duplicated processes and disconnected reports that create noise rather than clarity.This book offers a structured pathway out of that complexity.Drawing on real-world leadership experience in further education, Chris Loveday sets out a coherent six-layer framework that moves institutions from scattered systems to fully integrated operational intelligence. Beginning with strong digital strategy and governance, the book explores how to build reliable foundations: clean, connected data; cloud infrastructure; a unified data warehouse; and a shared semantic layer that ensures everyone speaks the same data language. Only then does it introduce dashboards, analytics and AI - positioned not as shiny solutions, but as tools that amplify professional judgement.At its core, Operational Intelligence argues that technology should serve people, not replace them. AI is framed as a catalyst for clarity, efficiency and fairness, freeing leaders and staff to focus on what matters most: teaching, support and student success. The book tackles the cultural and ethical dimensions of transformation alongside the technical ones, addressing governance, trust, workload, sustainability and proportionate use of automation.Through practical examples, implementation lessons and reflective questions at the end of each chapter, leaders are guided to:Develop a clear digital strategy aligned to institutional valuesDesign a coherent and scalable digital ecosystemMigrate responsibly to the cloudIntegrate data into a single source of truthDefine meaningful KPIs that drive improvementEmbed dashboards and AI insights into everyday workflowsLead cultural change with confidence and integrityThis is not a technical manual. It is a leadership blueprint for building institutions that think, act and improve intelligently.For vice principals, headteachers, governors, CFOs, CIOs and digital leaders, Operational Intelligence provides the architecture, language and confidence needed to move beyond digital patchwork and towards purposeful, sustainable transformation.Because the future of education will not be defined by how much data we hold - but by how wisely we use it.
