When cognitive behavior therapy emerged in the 1950s, driven by the work of Albert Ellis and Aaron Beck, basic behavior principles were largely sidelined in clinical psychology curricula. Issues in cognition became the focus of case conceptualization and intervention planning for most therapists. But as the new third-wave behavior therapies begin to address weaknesses in the traditional cognitive behavioral models-principally the modest effectiveness of thought stopping and cognitive restructuring techniques-basic behavior principles are once again attracting the interest of front-line clinicians. Many of today's clinicians, though, received their training during the years in which classical behaviorism was not a major part of clinical education. In order to make the best use of the new contextual behaviorism, they need to revisit basic behavioral principles from a practical angle. This book addresses this need.The "ABCs of Human Behavior" offers practicing clinicians a pithy and practical introduction to the basics of modern behavioral psychology. The book focuses both on the classical principles of learning as well as more recent developments that explain language and cognition in behavioral and contextual terms. These principles are not just discussed in the abstract-rather the book shows how the principles of learning apply in the clinical context. Practical and easy to read, the book walks clinicians through both common sense and clinical examples that help them learn to use behavioral principles to observe, explain, and influence behavior in a therapeutic setting.

"The ABCs of RBCs" is the first book to provide a basic introduction to Real Business Cycle (RBC) and New-Keynesian models. These models argue that random shocks - new inventions, droughts, and wars, in the case of pure RBC models, and monetary and fiscal policy and international investor risk aversion, in more open interpretations - can trigger booms and recessions and can account for much of observed output volatility.George McCandless works through a sequence of these Real Business Cycle and New-Keynesian dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models in fine detail, showing how to solve them, and how to add important extensions to the basic model, such as money, price and wage rigidities, financial markets, and an open economy. The impulse response functions of each new model show how the added feature changes the dynamics."The ABCs of RBCs" is designed to teach the economic practitioner or student how to build simple RBC models. Matlab code for solving many of the models is provided, and careful readers should be able to construct, solve, and use their own models.In the tradition of the "freshwater" economic schools of Chicago and Minnesota, McCandless enhances the methods and sophistication of current macroeconomic modeling.

In Aberrant Movements, David Lapoujade offers one of the first comprehensive treatments of Deleuzian thought. Drawing on the entirety of Deleuze's work as well as his collaborations with Félix Guattari, from the "transcendental empiricismż of Difference and Repetition to the schizoanalysis and geophilosophy of Anti-Oedipus and A Thousand Plateaus, Lapoujade explores the central problem underlying the delirious coherence of Deleuze's philosophy: aberrant movements. These are the movements that Deleuze wrests from Kantian idealism, Nietzsche's eternal return, and the nonsense of Lewis Carroll; they are the schizophrenic processes of the unconscious and the nomadic line of flight traversing historyżin short, the forces that permeate life and thought. Tracing and classifying their "irrational logicsż represent the quintessential tasks of Deleuzian philosophy.

1637 publizierte Descartes im holländischen Leiden anonym seinen »Discours de la méthode pour bien conduire sa raison et chercher la vérité dans les sciences, plus la Dioptrique, les Météores et la Géométrie qui sont des essais de cette méthode« (wörtlich: Abhandlung über die Methode, seine Vernunft gut zu gebrauchen und die Wahrheit in den Wissenschaften zu suchen, dazu die Lichtbrechung, die Meteore und die Geometrie als Versuchsanwendungen dieser Methode). Der als populärwissenschaftliches Werk auf hohem Niveau angelegte Discours wurde langfristig Descartes' wirksamstes Buch. Kernpunkte des Discours sind: 1) eine Erkenntnistheorie, die nur das als richtig akzeptiert, was durch die eigene schrittweise Analyse und logische Reflexion als plausibel verifiziert wird; 2) eine Ethik, gemäß der das Individuum sich im Sinne bewährter gesellschaftlicher Konventionen pflichtbewußt und moralisch zu verhalten hat; 3) eine Metaphysik, die zwar (durch logischen Beweis) die Existenz eines vollkommenen Schöpfer-Gottes annimmt, aber kirchenartigen Institutionen wenig Raum läßt; 4) eine Physik, die die Natur als durch zwar gottgegebene, aber allgemein gültige Gesetze geregelt betrachtet und dem Menschen ihre rationale Erklärung und damit letztlich ihre Beherrschung zur Aufgabe macht.
