The Philadelphia Association has been providing asylum for over 40 years. People diagnosed as 'mentally ill' have found in PA houses a haven where they can recover, in their own time and their own way, free from the well-meaning interventions of psychiatry or family. Little has been written about this radical movement until now.

Have you ever wondered why some people are naturally good with money? No matter your age or your income it is your spenditude--your attitude to money--that influences your financial success. Spenditude shows you how to tackle your habits and behaviours to uncover what drives your spending and allows you to gain financial security and live the life you want. This book is not about tedious budgets, get-rich-quick schemes, or giving up your daily coffee. Instead you will learn how to improve your relationship with money so you can release your financial anxiety and walk through life feeling in control. Financial wellbeing experts Paul Gordon and Janine Robertson reveal how with small and incremental steps you can empower yourself to change your spenditude for the better. Backed by extensive research, relatable case studies and in-depth interviews, this life-changing guide will help you get on the right path to financial security. In a world where change is constant, FOMO is prevalent, and social media's influence is unmistakable, there has never been a better time to take stock of your spenditude and put your financial future squarely in your own hands.

Dial "M" for Mother is the first book-length study to consistently and systematically apply a Freudian psychoanalytic approach to a number of Hitchcock's major films. Central to this book is the author's analysis of a "mother complex" that informs not only the major male and female characters of these and other Hitchcock films but their plot, formal structure, and visual, cinematic artistry as well.

Victor Serge was the first and the greatest witness of the twentieth century. An anarchist in France, a syndicalist in Spain, a critical Bolshevik in Russia, an agent of the Comintern in Germany and Austria, an exile, Serge once said that people judged history, but they did so without knowing what really happened and who the actors really were. All his work - novels. reportage, poetry, criticism - was an attempt to show what really happened, and why. Serge never lost hope, that ordinary people would act for themselves and take control of their own lives. On the ship taking him to exile in Mexico, where he would die isolated and in poverty, he recalled, The Russians and Spaniards among us know what it is to take the world into their hands, to set the railways running and the factories working...no kind of predestination impels us to become the offal of the concentration camps.

Therapy is not a matter of technique but is rather an art or craft and has much to learn from other forms of art and craft, such as painting, fiction, music and poetry. Like artists, therapists need to feel free if they are to be truly creative. This book presents an argument for that therapeutic freedom.

Since its formation in 1965, the Philadelphia Association has carved out a unique position in the world of psychotherapy, particularly through its engagement with philosophy, especially phenomenology and post phenomenology.
