Book Description
One cannot know anything about what is in the natural world until one is presented with it; but how one views what is thus presented depends on one's worldview and logical sagacity. Our actions,whether past, present, or future, were, are, and will be regulated by causes and their effects as manifested in events; in fact, our personal identities are defined by the events in our lives and by our worldviews. Young people should be acquiring discriminating skills to guide their thinking and to calculate their actions on these matters early in their lives, instead of being distracted by contrived trivialities and submitting their minds to manipulation by persons who are promoting their versions of the world that serve only their own vested interests.

Book Description
There has been frequent debate about what "Mind Your Ps and Qs" really means. It has come to mean a lot to me over the years as minding my own Ps and Qs, not the dogma of stale thought, became what is truly important to me. So, I have come up with my own definition of "Ps and Qs" (meaning "Poetry and Quotes"). Specifically, my own poetry and quotes which I hope will empower others as they have me. In addition, I've included a short story entitled "Stripper Witch," and an article entitled "More Marketing Advice" which will hopefully benefit not only nontraditionally published authors but those traditionally published as well.

Book Description
A new theory proposes that thinking is a learned action. In this remarkable monograph, Derek Melser argues that the core assumption of both folk psychology and cognitive science—that thinking goes on in the head—is mistaken. Melser argues that thinking is not an intracranial process of any kind, mental or neural, but is rather a learned action of the person. After an introduction in which he makes a prima facie case that thinking is an action, Melser reviews action-based theories of thinking advanced by Ryle, Vygotsky, Hampshire and others. He then presents his own theory of "token concerting," according to which thinking is a special kind of token performance, by the individual, of certain social, concerted activity. He examines the developmental role of concerted activity, the token performance of concerted activity, the functions of speech, the mechanics and uses of covert tokening, empathy, the origins of solo action, the actional nature of perception, and various kinds and aspects of mature thinking. In addition, he analyzes the role of metaphors in the folk notion of mind. While intending his theory as a contribution to the philosophy of mind, Melser aims also at a larger goal: to establish actions as a legitimate philosophical given, self-explanatory and sui generis. To this end, he argues in the final chapter against the possibility of scientific explanation of actions. The Act of Thinking opens up a large new area for philosophical research.

Book Description
Questions relating to personal identity are of central importance within counselling, which is often seen as an essentially (and perhaps excessively) 'me-focussed' activity. People often come to counsellors to find, reclaim, come to terms with, or control (aspects of) 'themselves.' They want to see how they have been shaped, helped or damaged by their circumstances. Yet there has been surprisingly little systematic examination of the conceptions of 'self' that are, could be, or should be available to counsellors. This accessible book meets this need and more deeply than most other texts into the foundations and underlying presuppositions of the subject. Alex Howard takes a fresh look at counselling and psychotherapy and advocates greater philosophical and sociological awareness for trainees.
