Valdrè Rossella
La morte dentro la vita. Riflessioni psicoanalitiche sulla pulsione muta. La pulsione di morte nella teoria, nella clinica e nell'arte
br. «Questo libro di Rossella Valdrè sulla pulsione di morte è frutto di un contatto con un "fuori" che si addensa di violenza e che rende difficile il compito vitale di dare significato agli eventi che attraversano il mondo in cui viviamo. La pulsione di morte è concetto poco di moda, inconsueto per la letteratura psicoanalitica attuale, salvo quella francese. Si tratta di un concetto intrigante, ambiguo, ma nel panorama attuale Rossella Valdrè si caratterizza proprio per l'invito che rivolge a tutti noi di sostare su questo tipo di concetti, di non liquidarli come obsoleti o scandalosamente metapsicologici. La metapsicologia è proprio la dimensione che ci porta accanto alla realtà. Il testo scava nelle perplessità che la pulsione di morte freudiana ha suscitato in psicoanalisi: la vita e la morte non come polarità antitetiche ma dimensioni che convivono in una dialettica conflittuale e complementare insieme. Come provato oggi dalle scoperte scientifiche del suicidio cellulare e dell'apoptosi, la straordinaria intuizione freudiana torna a interrogarci: la morte si mescola con la vita.» (Laura Ambrosiano)

Van Lommel Pim
Coscienza oltre la vita. La scienza delle esperienze di premorte
brossura La coscienza sopravvive o no alla morte? Un cardiologo di fama internazionale ci illustra le sue strabilianti ricerche. Proseguendo l'eccezionale percorso intrapreso da Raymond Moody, Jeffrey Long e altri, eccoci di fronte al mistero della vita dopo la vita indagato da una mente scientifica, dalla formazione solidissima e dal metodo inattaccabile, ma aperta ai risultati più sconvolgenti. Una lettura che fa pensare, documentatissima e ricca di casistica. Pini van Lommel, cardiologo olandese, ha iniziato il proprio percorso di ricerca sulle NDE (Near-Death Experiences, o esperienze di premorte) dopo avere notato la quantità di pazienti che, dopo un infarto, dichiaravano di avere avuto visioni dell'aldilà. Nel 2001 ha pubblicato il primo e celeberrimo studio sulle NDE su The Lancet (una delle più prestigiose riviste mediche internazionali), grazie al quale è diventato il faro per chiunque sia interessato a indagare questo tema da una prospettiva scientifica.
