The Predatory Society: Deception in the American Marketplace
Paul Blumberg Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0195066545 |
Book Description
Who knows more about a business's shady practices than the people who work there? In this pioneering study, Paul Blumberg examines a wide variety of evidence, including over 600 accounts written by workers who disclose in elaborate detail the deceptions their employers practiced on the public. Employed in a wide variety of business enterprises--supermarkets, restaurants, fish markets, department stores, gas stations, drug stores, pet stores, and many more--these workers pull back the curtain and reveal the hidden recesses of the American marketplace. Blumberg documents these deceptions in numerous vivid stories, providing readers with a trenchant handbook on survival in America. He tells of stores that routinely mark prices up before a sale; gas stations that sell regular gas as high test; auto mechanics who spray-paint customers' old car parts and then charge them for new parts (in one gas stations, the workers claimed that the mechanic's best tool was his paint can); and pharmacists who sell generic drugs and charge name-brand prices. But equally important, he provides an insightful analysis of why deception pervades the American marketplace. Though at times amusing, The Predatory Society is also frequently disturbing for what it says about private capitalism: how dishonesty is all but built into the American marketplace, and how this dishonesty has potentially disastrous effects on trust and community in our society.Customer Reviews:

Shadow and Evil in Fairy Tales (A C.G. Jung Foundation Book)
Marie-Louise von Franz Manufacturer: Shambhala ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0877739749 Release Date: 1995-02-07 |
Book Description
Fairy tales seem to be innocent stories, yet they contain profound lessons for those who would dive deep into their waters of meaning. In this book, Marie-Louise von Franz uncovers some of the important lessons concealed in tales from around the world, drawing on the wealth of her knowledge of folklore, her experience as a psychoanalyst and a collaborator with Jung, and her great personal wisdom. Among the many topics discussed in relation to the dark side of life and human psychology, both individual and collective, are: How different aspects of the "shadow"—all the affects and attitudes that are unconscious to the ego personality—are personified in the giants and monsters, ghosts, and demons, evil kings and wicked witches of fairy tales How problems of the shadow manifest differently in men and women What fairy tales say about the kinds of behavior and attitudes that invite evil How Jung's technique of Active imagination can be used to overcome overwhelming negative emotions How ghost stories and superstitions reflect the psychology of grieving What fairy tales advise us about whether to struggle against evil or turn the other cheek Dr. von Franz concludes that ever rule of behavior that we can learn from the unconscious through fairy tales and dreams is usually a paradox: sometimes there must be a physical struggle against evil and sometimes a contest of wits, sometimes a display of strength or magic and sometimes a retreat. Above all, she shows the importance of relying on the central, authentic core of our being—the innermost Self, which is beyond the struggle between the opposites of good and evil.Customer Reviews:

Jung on Evil
C. G. Jung Manufacturer: Princeton University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0691026173 |
Book Description
Well-known for his articulation of the "shadow side" of human individuality and culture, C. G. Jung wrote a great deal about the question of evil throughout his life and in scattered places in his work. In this book his position is pieced together from many sources. In his early work on the unconscious, for instance, he considered the role of evil in the mental processes of the severely disturbed. Later, he viewed the question of moral choice within the framework of his ideas about archetypes and discussions about moral choices, conscience, and the continual ethical reflection that is necessary for all of us. The material here includes letters to Freud and Father Victor White and selections from his writings ranging from his Answer to Job to his travel piece on North Africa.
Customer Reviews:
Dark.......2003-08-06
Elaine Pagels is the only one I can think of who comes close to the wisdom of Jung on this particular subject.
A classic, profound exploration of the dark side.
An excellent introduction to Jung's thought in his own words.......1998-12-09
The selections from Jung's writings are excellent and there are extensive explanatory footnotes from the editor.
Jung will convince you that those who supress their shadow side soon see it in others and that one's shadow side has to be accepted not denied.
The book contains extensive selections from Answer to Job as well as hard to obtain Jung writings (unless you want to shell out a thousand dollars for his Collected Works).
Throught the book, Jung's compassion, vast erudition, and many and varied insights shine through.

Facing the Dragon: Confronting Personal and Spiritual Grandiosity
Robert L. Moore , and Max J., Jr. Havlick Manufacturer: Chiron Publications ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 188860221X |
Book Description
Traditional doctrinal and historical interpretation both rely heavily on rational analysis. But from the disciples at Emmaus to the beginnings of the present century, it has been the impact of scripture upon the human heart that has changed human lives. In recent decades, this impact has been strengthened by advances in linguistic and literary theory, by such disparate influences as feminism, structuralism, Jungianism, deconstructionism, the analysis of archaic imagery and myth, the recovery of Gnostic texts, and finally an openness to pluralism, whether ethnic, geographic, religious, or interpretive. All of these factors are treated here with a brevity and comprehensiveness which convincingly show that the reader of scripture has a creative and not merely passive role.Customer Reviews:

Tai Chi Touchstones: Yang Family Secret Trasmission.......2005-07-23
A scholarly compilation of early Yang oral and written works.......2002-04-28
These early works are not a step-by-step manual, but guides to the practicing student to help gain insight into what they're practicing. What any reader should immediately pick-up, however, is that these guides were written for someone learning how to fight.
Though much of the material is by (and thus, oriented towards) a Yang-stylist, the fundamental principles of taiji remain the same in all styles, so there is enough material that all taiji practitioners can benefit by. In fact, this book was recommended to me by a Chen-style practitioner.
The other part of this book, the author's foreword, gives the colorful (and sometimes conflicting) historical background and accounts of the Yang family, which is in of itself a fascinating read.
This book is definitely recommended for any serious taiji student.
Interesting Book.......2001-12-09
Still, the stories are nice. It's refreshing to find a book where someone doesn't show you a (poor) form with 2 basic applications and claim to the the God of Tai Chi.
If you really want something to sink your teeth into, hit the tai chi classics.
PS- The best laugh in the pages of the book are the pics of Yang Chen Fu in "action". For a master, he had sloppy form.

Golf Courses of the PGA Tour

ASIN: 0810949504 |
Amazon.com
As lavish as the layouts it celebrates, Golf Courses of the PGA Tour offers a comprehensive tour of each of the permanent PGA stops. Profusely illustrated with lush photography and painted routing plans for each 18, it's a veritable feast to look at, and a fascinating read, as well. Teed up to match the week-in, week- out schedule of the competitive season, the book begins in California with the Mercedes Championship at La Costa and ends with the Tour Championship (which rotates courses) and the unofficial events, including the Skins Game and the Plantation Course of the Kapalua International. For each venue, it presents concise tournament and course histories, hole-by-hole scorecards, a quick playing tip from a winner at each venue (Phil Mickelson on playing low shots at Torrey Pines, Raymond Floyd on hitting a draw at Doral, Arnold Palmer on whacking long irons at Bay Hill, Nick Price on driving for accuracy at Cog Hill), and heads for home with an extensive collection of PGA Tour records and statistics. Both useful and attractive, it's the kind of book that should wedge itself perfectly onto the coffee table of any golf enthusiast. --Jeff SilvermanBook Description
As lush as the gorgeously landscaped courses it covers, this completely new edition of the most successful golf book in Abrams' history takes readers on a highly entertaining "tour of the Tour," this time following the tournaments of the 2005 PGA season. The author, a noted golf authority who for 25 years was GOLF Magazine's editor-in-chief, provides an anecdotal history of each tournament, along with valuable tips on how to play specific shots. Complementing the text are beautiful color photographs of all the sites, including rarely seen views of the courses that are joining the Tour for the first time in 2005.Customer Reviews:
