A nostalgic romp through modern NBA history as documented by basketball's most iconic and innovative magazine covers.
Every magazine cover is the result of a series of intentional decisions. Cover Story shares the behind-the-scenes stories of these deliberate choices, which led to the most iconic basketball-related magazine covers during a period from 1984 to 2003.
Through 100-plus interviews conducted with writers, editors, publishers, photographers, creative directors, and the players themselves, the book explores Michael Jordan's relationship with Sports Illustrated, Shaquille O'Neal and the hip-hop generation's impact on newsstands, the birth of SLAM and the inside stories of their most iconic covers, how the 1996 USA women's basketball team inspired a new era of women's sports magazines, the competition among publishers to put high school phenom LeBron James on the magazine cover first, and much more.
Offering an immersive look at some of the most impactful moments in a golden era for modern basketball, this engaging read will appeal to basketball fans, pop culture enthusiasts, and those who want to take a deep dive into understanding how the individual components of a classic magazine cover come together.

What if there were parts of our minds which we never use, but if awakened, could make us so much happier, connected and alive? What if awakening those parts could bring peace to the conflicts and struggles we all go through?
From the cutting edge, where therapy meets neuroscience, Steve Biddulph explores the new concept of 'supersense' - the feelings beneath our feelings - which can guide us to a more awake and free way of living every minute of our lives. And the Four-storey Mansion, a way of using your mind that can be taught to a five-year-old, but can also help the most damaged adult.
In Fully Human, Steve Biddulph draws on deeply personal stories from his own life, as well of those of his clients, and from the frontiers of thinking about how the brain works with the body and the wisdom of the 'wild creature' inside all of us. At the peak of a lifetime's work, one of the world's best-known psychotherapists and educators shows how you can be more alive, more connected. More FULLY HUMAN.

Questi schizzi biografici presentano alcuni tratti della vita di due beati martiri poco conosciuti qui in Italia: Don Emanuele Gómez Gonzalez e Adilio Daronch. Queste pagine intendono raccontare la testimonianza di questo parroco buono e del suo chierichetto uccisi, nel folto della foresta, mentre compivano il ministero pastorale.

Why are we obsessed with the things we want only to be bored when we get them?
Why is addiction perfectly logical to an addict?
Why does love change so quickly from passion to indifference?
Why are some people die-hard liberals and others hardcore conservatives?
Why are we always hopeful for solutions even in the darkest times-and so good at figuring them out?
The answer is found in a single chemical in your brain: dopamine. Dopamine ensured the survival of early man. Thousands of years later, it is the source of our most basic behaviors and cultural ideas-and progress itself.
Dopamine is the chemical of desire that always asks for more-more stuff, more stimulation, and more surprises. In pursuit of these things, it is undeterred by emotion, fear, or morality. Dopamine is the source of our every urge, that little bit of biology that makes an ambitious business professional sacrifice everything in pursuit of success, or that drives a satisfied spouse to risk it all for the thrill of someone new. Simply put, it is why we seek and succeed; it is why we discover and prosper. Yet, at the same time, it's why we gamble and squander.
From dopamine's point of view, it's not the having that matters. It's getting something-anything-that's new. From this understanding-the difference between possessing something versus anticipating it-we can understand in a revolutionary new way why we behave as we do in love, business, addiction, politics, religion-and we can even predict those behaviors in ourselves and others.
In The Molecule of More: How a Single Chemical in Your Brain Drives Love, Sex, and Creativity-and will Determine the Fate of the Human Race, George Washington University professor and psychiatrist Daniel Z. Lieberman, MD, and Georgetown University lecturer Michael E. Long present a potentially life-changing proposal: Much of human life has an unconsidered component that explains an array of behaviors previously thought to be unrelated, including why winners cheat, why geniuses often suffer with mental illness, why nearly all diets fail, and why the brains of liberals and conservatives really are different.

Der vorliegende Band vereinigt, chronologisch geordnet, vier Schriften Sigmund Freuds über die Religion. Darunter ist 'Der Mann Moses und die monotheistische Religion' nicht nur die umfangreichste, sondern auch die bei weitem bedeutendste. Es handelt sich um das große Alterswerk des Begründers der Psychoanalyse, veröffentlicht 1939, als Freud bereits im Londoner Exil lebte. Geschrieben ist es also unter akuter Lebensbedrohung, im Schatten der Nazibedrohung und der fortschreitenden Krebserkrankung Freuds. Das ungemein komplexe Werk enthält nicht nur eine Darstellung der Entstehung des Monotheismus, eine Reflexion über die Gestalt des Moses und seines Wirkens sowie eine Untersuchung der Ursachen des Antisemitismus, also Religionsgeschichte und Religionspsychologie. Passagen des Werks sind nichts anderes als eine Zusammenfassung der Grundzüge der Psychoanalyse und ein Rückblick auf die Geschichte der Freudschen Theoriebildung, von der anfänglichen Traumatheorie zur Triebtheorie. Schließlich kann man das Buch aber auch als eine Monographie über die Entstehung individueller und kollektiver Neurose lesen, als Rekapitulation der psychoanalytischen Kulturtheorie, als politisches Traktat und metaphorische Selbstdarstellung. Es ist kein Zufall, daß in einer Zeit, in der das Phänomen der Religiosität bis hin zum Fundamentalismus sowie die Ursprünge der großen Weltreligionen mehr und mehr ins Zentrum des Interesses rücken, 'Der Mann Moses und die monotheistische Religion' auf einmal zu den meistdiskutierten Freudschen Werken zählt. In den letzten Jahren sind mehrere Bücher darüber veröffentlicht worden.
