Herrschaft der Kindsköpfe – über das Unbehagen in Kultur und Politik. Gefühl ist Trumpf, Argumente stören, und Diskretion war gestern. Wir haben uns in eine Gesellschaft der Kindsköpfe verwandelt, das infantile Prinzip herrscht: Zu diesem Ergebnis kommt der bekannte Publizist Alexander Kissler in seinem neuen Buch. Erwachsene verhalten sich lustvoll wie Kinder, sind es aber längst nicht mehr. Sie reden auf Teletubbies-Niveau, schicken Emojis in die Datenumlaufbahn oder schwärmen hemmungslos für Greta & Co. Sie spielen Meerjungfrau, Teddybär und Peter Pan und finden nichts dabei.

Questo saggio vuole fornire alcune indicazioni su come affrontare i problemi della vecchiaia con serenità e sicurezza. L'autrice non parte da considerazioni etiche, sociologiche o psicologiche, bensì scientifiche, con le quali dimostra che il cervello umano invecchiando perde alcune prerogative, ma le sostituisce con altre che in parte compensano e superano quelle perdute. L'autrice accompagna la sua dimostrazione con una serie di esempi di personalità attive fino alla vecchiaia, come Michelangelo, Galileo Galilei, Bertrand Russell e Pablo Picasso.

Warum lieben Kinder es, Knöpfe zu drücken? Warum haben sie ganz plötzlich Angst vor Fremden? Warum verstecken sie sich so gern - und sind trotzdem so verdammt schlecht darin? Unsere kleinen Mitmenschen sind merkwürdige Wesen. Sie bewegen sich vor allem hüpfend vorwärts, tun selten, was man ihnen sagt, und wollen sich nur von Nudeln und Süßigkeiten ernähren. Sandra Winkler, Mutter zweier Töchter, geht der Sache auf den Grund.

Qui n’aimerait pas que son enfant soit avide d’apprendre et persévérant; qu’il soit capable d’introspection, de contemplation, de concentration; qu’il se montre chaque jour reconnaissant, ne tenant rien pour acquis? Pourtant, notre époque ne cesse de l’éloigner de ces aspirations, de le détourner de la nature, du jeu libre, du silence…

Pensez-vous que le bonheur se cueille surtout dans l'instant présent, comme semble le souligner la psychologie positive ? Que la pleine conscience en constitue un accès privilégié ? Mais que faire si nous n'avons pas su savourer les bons moments de notre vie, trop vite enfuis ? Yves-Alexandre Thalmann montre qu'il est possible de les apprécier après coup. C'est ce que révèlent de récents travaux réalisés dans le cadre des sciences cognitives.

Living with ADD affects the development of one's view of self, especially for those not diagnosed until adulthood, after an entire childhood of feeling "different" without knowing why. Solden takes a longer view of the challenges and sees living with ADD as an ongoing internal process.

When trying to deal with our current troubles and anxieties, it can be deeply irritating to be asked to consider our childhoods. They happened so long ago; we can probably barely remember, let alone relate to, the little person we once were.

This book is a guide to better understanding our younger selves in order to shape who we wish to be in the future.

Klein reveals why ages two to five years is the most crucial time for a child's brain development and how parents can harness this period to have a lifelong positive effect on their children's lives. Based on extensive research with toddlers, How Toddlers Thrive explains what is happening in children's brains and bodies at this age that makes their behaviour so turbulent and why your reaction to their behaviour - the way you speak to, speak about and act towards your toddler - holds the key to a successful tomorrow and a happier today.

A child's concept of race is quite different from that of an adult. Young children perceive skin color as magical - even changeable - and are incapable of understanding adult prejudices. Just as children learn to walk and talk, they likewise come to understand race in a series of predictable stages. Based on Marguerite A. Wright's research and clinical experience, I'm Chocolate, You're Vanilla teaches us that the color-blindness of early childhood can, and must, be taken advantage of in order to guide the positive development of a child's self-esteem.
