Maroon cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership marks. 350 pages clean and tight. Over the last twenty years Esther Goody has made extensive studies of traditional and contemporary patterns of education and child-rearing in West Africa. In this book she provides an account of the rich variety of institutions such as fostering apprenticeship and wardship which have developed in West Africa either in absence of or alongside formal schools to prepare children for the wide range of economic and political roles now available to them in adult society. Drawing on her work in West Africa and with West Africans in London Dr Goody shows that among many groups it is common practice to send children to grow up away from home. As a cross-cultural study of a central kinship institution - parenthood - and of processes of change in adult role allocation the book is of interest to social anthropologists sociologists educationalists and social psychologists. .

réf. 468910Taylor & Francis. Paperback. Good. Cancer and Creativity is a dialogue between accounts by cancer patients and survivors and a more clinical consideration and theoretical discussion from a psychoanalytic point of view of using creativity in coping with serious illness. The contributions featured demonstrate the power of creative expression as a tool for dealing with somatic chronic and potentially life-threatening illnesses giving patients a way of expressing and managing their individual cancer journeys and its attendant emotional sequelae.Ten artist-patients and survivors who were involved in several long-term art therapy groups give accounts of their experiences with cancer and with their support group where they create paintings embroidery digital photography comic books maps and other works to express their experiences of being diagnosed and treated for cancer. The contributors describe their symptoms and their relationships to physicians and family members in words and visual representations. The book also addresses the experience of the public when they are confronted with art by cancer patients. Dreifuss-Kattan's own work as a psychoanalyst and art therapist informs her approach to the art space as what Winnicott calls a transitional space influenced by both the personal psychological experience and the physical environment. Dreifuss-Kattan closes her discussion with a reflection on terminal cancer care and the complex transferential and countertransferential relationship between patient and therapist. The book ends with a practical guide for both therapy groups as well as individuals at home to creatively address their experiences with cancer and its treatments.Cancer and Creativity will be of great interest to psychoanalysts psychoanalytic psychotherapists psychooncologists and art therapists as well as health professionals working in oncology and in palliative care.
