Pages : 274
Book Description
Winner of the 2015 Book Prize for the Promotion of Social and Personality Science (Society for Personality and Social Psychology) Why are we sometimes blind to the minds of others, treating them like objects or animals instead? Why do we talk to our cars, or the stars, as if there is a mind that can hear us? Why do we so routinely believe that others think, feel, and want what we do when, in fact, they do not? And why do we think we understand our spouses, family, and friends so much better than we actually do? In this illuminating book, leading social psychologist Nicholas Epley introduces us to what scientists have learned about our ability to understand the most complicated puzzle on the planet—other people—and the surprising mistakes we so routinely make. Mindwise will not turn others into open books, but it will give you the wisdom to revolutionize how you think about them—and yourself.

EVOLUTION OF PEOPLE'S THOUGHT AGAINST ALL KINDS OF OPPRESSION
Author: JAVIER CLEMENTE ENGONGA AVOMO
Publisher: DelRei
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
As in other times, in other times and in many places and moments in history, talking about Freedom has always been a matter of concern for those who oppress, because to oppress is to disturb the individual and collective freedoms of others, of innocent peoples. The oppressed is never guilty but is always the victim of the oppressor, which is generally a whole system personified in the figure of an oppressive tyrant or an oppressive tyrannical group. And so many peoples throughout the history of humanity have undergone that long learning of forced submission to a system that destroys them and prevents them from being free, and always, in all ages, peoples have decided their own destinies. . From the American Revolution that led to the Civil War that provided a new outlook for the Western world and a powerful new nation, to Mao's Red Revolution that began with the uprisings of student groups in Xiangtan, Hunan Province and spread throughout the country mobilizing the masses to fight and end the national division, the dying empire of the Qing dynasty and its last emperor PuYi, as well as the fight against the Chinese secessionists in that case, the Guo Ming Tang, who they ended up exiled to Taiwan until today and, above all, the struggle and triumph against the Japanese invasion. The revolution is not a chance event, nor can its emergence be prevented, since it is the result of events in the history of each nation. Oppressors can always kill, murder, imprison, shoot, lie and cheat, manipulate and destroy, buy and bribe, because that has been their role throughout history, ... their archetype, rather; but they can never prevent or impede revolution. At most, they can delay it, nothing more. The most maliciously intelligent, like the Romans already in the second millennium, adopted the revolution of the Jewish insurgents and took possession of it and built on it the survival and extension of their empire, turning it into the Holy Roman Empire as they were called. But when all the parties do not join the People and their revolution, then they easily end up in the chair of the accused and judged by their peoples and history. The socialist, nationalist, or communist terms with which the popular revolution or revolution of the peoples are identified are only labels associated with specific systems of government. The true revolution is neither socialist nor capitalist but belongs to the people; It is a natural mechanism of peoples throughout their history to return to the natural order of things, to freedom and respect for the rights of people and social justice. When societies lose their sense of freedom, law and social justice, then the Revolution always springs up as a consequential and natural effect. The incessant search for freedom of the peoples, and the desire for emancipation over the lower powers that submit their destinies, has always led peoples throughout history to demonstrate in search of a forceful advance, a transcendental change, to which It has always been called Revolution, meaning a process of return to evolution, to programmed continuity. To evolve is to go forward, and a Revolution entails the return or return to the correct and desired direction or direction of things. That is why good revolutions have always triumphed, for that is how youth revolutions are. Young people are by nature lovers of change, and although they adapt to everything they also adopt their own way of doing things and seeing the world. Throughout contemporary history, youths have literally managed to move mountains. There is no successful revolution in history, from the French Revolution to the Industrial Revolution, or much later the socialist revolutions in the East and the West; or more specifically in Africa, the independence revolutions that culminated in the creation and independence of most of the countries that we recognize today in Africa; all of them had the energies and the din of the young people. The famous and courageous members of the Black Panther Party in the United States were seventeen to twenty-two-year-old youths, warriors who shook the pillars of racism in American society, the most historic, political, and overtly racist modern society. And the greatest, the greatest revolutionaries are, in truth, the eyes and the brain of every revolution. The Total Revolution to which the peoples of the world aspire is not a transcendental or apocalyptic event, but a sudden change of universal consciousness about certain truths of our reality that are also universal. The truth that injustices and crimes, abuses and impunity cannot create anything positive in any society is the creed of a revolutionary. The truth that fear cannot prevail over the day-to-day opportunity to change, to challenge, to triumph, is the hymn of a revolutionary. These are the Foundations of the Revolutionary Consciousness, and the Evolution of the Thought of the People - of the popular classes - against all kinds of Oppression.

Thought Reform and China's Dangerous Classes
Author: Aminda M. Smith
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 144221838X
Category : China
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
This book offers the first detailed study of the essential relationship between thought reform and the "dangerous classes"--The prostitutes, beggars, petty criminals, and other "lumpenproletarians" the Communists saw as a threat to society and the revolution. Aminda Smith takes readers inside early-PRC reformatories, where the new state endeavored to transform "vagrants" into members of the laboring masses. As places where "the people" were literally created, these centers became testing grounds for rapidly changing ideas and experiments about thought reform and the subjects they produced. Smit.

NUGGETS OF THE NEW THOUGHT SEVERAL THINGS THAT HAVE HELPED PEOPLE
Author: WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON
Publisher: BEYOND BOOKS HUB
ISBN:
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 117
Book Description
I do not like writing a preface — it seems too much like an apology. I have no special apology to tender for offering this collection of New Thought nuggets. They may possess no literary merit, but they have helped men and women. With the exception of “The Secret of the I Am,” these essays appeared from month to month in “New Thought,” of which magazine I am associate editor. They were written hastily, principally upon the demand of the printer for “copy,” and, for the most part, were printed just as they were written, there being no time for revision or polishing up. You may pick up any one of them and find many sentences needing straightening out — many thoughts which could be better expressed by the change of a few words. Knowing these things, I first thought that I would go over each essay and add a little here, and take away a little there, polishing up and burnishing as I went along. But when I looked over them, my heart failed me. There they were just as they were written — just as they were dug out of my mind — and I hadn't the heart to change them. I remembered the circumstances surrounding the writing of every one of them, and I let them alone. A “nugget” polished up would be no longer a nugget. And these thoughts are nuggets — I dug them myself. I will not say much regarding the quality of the metal — that is for you — but you see them just as they came from the mine — rough, unpolished, mixed with the rock, queerly shaped. If you think that they contain metal of sufficiently good quality, refine them, melt them and fashion them into something useful or ornamental. For myself, I like things with the bark on — with the marks of the hammer — with the original quartz adhering to the metal. But others are of different taste — they like everything to feel smooth to the touch. They will not like these nuggets. Alas, I cannot help it — I cannot produce the beautifully finished article — I have nothing to offer other than the crude product of the mine. Here they are, polish them up yourself if you prefer them in that shape — I will not touch them.
