The Psychology of Passion
Author: Dr Robert J. Vallerand
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199777659
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
Winner of the 2017 APA William James Book Award The concept of passion is one we regularly use to describe our interests, and yet there is no broad theory that can explain the development and consequences of passion for activities across people's lives. In The Psychology of Passion, Robert J. Vallerand presents the first such theory, providing a complete presentation of the Dualistic Model of Passion and the empirical evidence that supports it. Vallerand conceives of two types of passion: harmonious passion, which remains under the person's control, and obsessive passion, which controls the person. While the first typically leads to adaptive behaviors, the obsessive form of passion leads to less adaptive and, at times, maladaptive behaviors. Vallerand highlights the effects of these two types of passion on a number of psychological phenomena, such as cognition, emotions, performance, relationships, aggression, and violence. He also discusses the development of passion and reviews a range of literature on passion for activities.

Desire
Author: Timo Airaksinen
Publisher: Transaction Publishers
ISBN: 1412863546
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
Desire is a rich term meaning wish and want, willingness and relish, appetite and lust. This volume is an effort to analyze the concept of desire and its different practical contexts from a morally philosophic point of view. By analyzing multiple definitions and studying underlying motivations, the authors offer a variety of explanations and interpretations. The volume consists of three main parts. The first part, “Desire and Practice,” examines desire as a mental state that seeks personal satisfaction. The second part of the volume, “Desire and Moral Life,” explores social, cultural, and literary facets of desire. Finally, in the third part, “Business Ethics and Other Contexts,” the authors apply praxiological principles to the business world, examining the conflict between frugality and consumerist ideology, the role of intuition in decision-making, and the need for design education as the basis of effective planning. The contributors to this, the newest volume in Transaction’s Praxiology series, seek to explore desire in praxiological terms, with an eye toward the three E’s of praxiology: ethics, effectiveness, and efficiency. In doing so, they demonstrate that desire is central for practical activity in general and work in particular.

Unholy Craving
Author: Lynn Burke

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
As a newly appointed youth pastor, I blindly walk by faith, stumbling without the promised light down God's chosen path. Until a young man resurrects the sinful nature I've rejected in my strive for purity. Isaac Van Dusen, my pastor's son. He's troubled. Rebellious. Off limits to my lonely heart, yet gives me breath when I feel I'm drowning and in need of a savior. Isaac's hunger for sin rivals mine, the kind that consumes. Burns like fire and brimstone. I'm determined to stay in a constant state of prayer, begging for delivery from temptation-all while dreaming of being on my knees for entirely different reasons. I want to submit to the unholy craving between us and worship the young man entrusted to my spiritual care. But acting on the lusts of the flesh ensures our fall from grace, and I can't allow him to be the second one to pay the price for my sins. Even if it means living a lie for eternity.

Love, Desire and Melancholy
Author: Angharad Eyre
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351849840
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Originally inspired by the digitisation of the autobiographical writings of Constance Maynard, this volume considers women’s historical experience of sexuality through the frame of the history of emotions. Constance Maynard (1849-1935) rose to prominence as the first Mistress and Principal of Westfield College, holding that position from 1882 to 1913. However, her writings offer more than an insight into the movement for women’s higher education. As pioneering feminist scholars such as Martha Vicinus have discovered, Maynard’s life writings are a valuable source for scholars of gender and sexuality. Writing about her relationships with other women teachers and students, Maynard attempted to understand her emotions and desires within the frame of her evangelical religious culture. The contributions to this volume draw out the significance of Maynard’s writings for the histories of gender, sexuality, religion, and the emotions. Interdisciplinary in nature, they use the approaches of literary studies, architecture studies, and life writing to understand Maynard and her historical significance. This book was originally published as a special issue of Women’s History Review.

The Philosophy of Desire in the Buddhist Pali Canon
Author: David Webster
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 9780415346528
Category : Buddhism
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
David Webster explores the notion of desire as found in the Buddhist Pali Canon. Beginning by addressing the idea of a 'paradox of desire', whereby we must desire to end desire, the varieties of desire that are articulated in the Pali texts are examined. A range of views of desire, as found in Western thought, are presented as well as Hindu and Jain approaches. An exploration of the concept of ditthi(view or opinion) is also provided, exploring the way in which 'holding views' can be seen as analogous to the process of desiring. Other subjects investigated include the mind-body relationship, the range of Pali terms for desire, and desire's positive spiritual value. A comparative exploration of the various approaches completes the work.
