Download Particulars and Universals in Clinical and Developmental Psychology Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
What sparks a psychologist’s interest in a certain phenomenon? Is it a symptom, a syndrome, a treatment, the usual, the exceptional, the group, the individual? An epistemologist, for example, focuses on the group and delivers group results. The clinician has to focus on the patient, although the patient may be perceived as one of a group (e.g., all patients with the same disease). The patient usually focuses on the clinician, but can take other opinions into account; especially, when the clinician is not considered to be the only authority. These dynamics – observable in therapy as well as in research – are critically reflected in this book, not only highlighting differences, but also commonalities individuals share: They all filter information and concentrate on certain aspects according to their socialization. They all have different expectations and can, yet, all deal with the same objective. Communication and building relationships seem to be vital – this book aims to support this quest by moving from the universal to the particular.

Download Oral Tradition Narratives of the Emai People Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
" This collection of seventy prose of narrative samples represents the only published record of the oral tradition of the Emai people of southern Nigeria. The narratives are presented in both Emai orthography and English translation. They tend to portray everyday cultural practices of the Emai with human characters or their animal personification. As such, they provide an initial glimpse of Emai cosmology, cultural values and social norms as well as a firm impression of how Emai grammatical resources function in spontaneous narrative discourse. Ronald P. Schaefer is Professor at the College of Arts and Sciences, Department of English Language and Literature, at the Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. Francis O. Egbokhare teaches at the University of Ibadan in Nigeria. "

A man, Zarwee, a talented wrestler, hardworking farmer, and prolific hunter in Grand Gedeh Countys northern belt of the Dhoe Kingdom blew up the head of his two-year-old son and smashed the chest of his wife. At the fall of the nineteenth century, Zarwee, bereft of everythinglove and wifeand despondent and depressed, did the unthinkable, the most abominable and traditionally callous thing when he shot his wife and son to death and blew himself up. While other men protected their families with their lives and preserved their heritage, Zarwee wiped out his, more so in the presence of elders, women, and children in an open village square. In Mother and Child Must Die, Gibson Jerue pieces together the story of an incident that rocked a village known for its serenity and progress in a new community of people who tasted of war and became warriors themselves, people who became both victims and victors. When a wife enriched the fame of a man and guaranteed his pedigree, taking away a mans wife was not only to bereave him of manhood, but it was also to relegate him to the fringes of society and to do so by challenging him to fight back, if he canhowever diabolical.
