【心理健康的終極指南】「人可以改變，並且終其一生都能持續改變。」精神官能症起源於人際關係上的困擾，那些未解決的衝突導致患者產生：焦慮、無助、恐懼、麻木、疏離等狀態。二十世紀最重要的女性心理學家，從順從、攻擊、抽離，辨認隱藏的內在矛盾，化解現代人的深層絕望。「不論出發點如何，一路上又歷經多少折磨，最終如果出現精神疾病，追根究柢都是因為有人格上的困擾。」精神官能症患者的基本衝突，在於他們對待別人的態度是矛盾的，導致失去全心投入生活的能力。荷妮透過臨床經驗，歸納出三種主要態度：◎親近他人：順從型人格的特質，他們明顯需要關愛，尤其需要一個伴侶，對方要能滿足他對人生的所有期待。◎對抗他人：對攻擊型來說，人生是大家互相對抗的鬥爭。他們面對人事物的最根本考量是「我能從中得到什麼？」◎遠離他人：抽離型的人情感麻木，不願和別人有瓜葛，不管是愛情或合作都一樣，但表面上可以和人相處融洽。我們多少都具有各種特質，而精神官能症患者的問題在於三種力量同時拉扯，最終動彈不得。他們想要友善待人，又覺得那是討好，就會顯得生硬；他們想提出請求，又覺得該直接命令，就會變得無禮；內在的逆流愈多，壓力愈大。為了不被衝突撕裂，他們本能地尋找出路，發展出化解方式。壓抑傾向：隱匿衝突的一部分。情感抽離：與他人保持距離。理想化形象：藉此取代真實自我。外化作用：無法正視自己，轉而怪罪他人。這些策略會暫時帶來表面平靜，卻讓人陷入更深的絕望。唯有改變那些讓衝突不斷產生的條件，才能整合分裂的人格。本書是所有渴望自由的靈魂，找回完整自我的支持力量。【專文導讀】蔡榮裕｜臺灣分析治療學會理事長、臺灣心理治療個案管理學會理事長、臺灣精神分析學會創會理事長【好評推薦】李旻珊｜身心科醫師黃之盈｜暢銷親職作家／諮商心理師蘇益賢｜臨床心理師鐘穎｜心理學作家／愛智者書窩版主（依姓氏筆畫排序）

◇ 新佛洛德學派代表人物，大師「卡倫．荷妮」的心理學經典之作。

病人想避而不談內心的衝突，那是自有其道理的 ──他們怕自己的力量把自己撕成碎片。 恐懼、絕望、虐待、憂鬱、壓抑…… 生活在這問題成堆的文明中的我們， 大多數都有著內心衝突，並且迫切需要幫助！ ▎所謂衝突 ──選擇，既是人的特權也是重負 【兩種相反欲望】 既想要學醫，又想學音樂； 想一人獨處，又想有人作伴。 【意願與義務】 有人陷入困難正需要幫助，我們卻渴望與戀人幽會； 我們也許左右為難，既想贊同別人，又想反對他們。 【兩個價值觀念】 戰爭期間我們相信冒險出征是義務， 但也有人認為留下來照看親人是責任。 生活在當今社會，必須經常進行各種選擇。 所以，我們有衝突，那是不足為怪的！ 令人吃驚的是大多數人根本沒意識到這些衝突…… 通常人們低估的是衝突在精神官能症中所引起的作用。 要發現這些衝突並非易事，一方面由於它們主要處於無意識中， 但更重要的是因為精神官能症患者往往矢口否認它們的存在！ ◎自相矛盾是衝突存在的確切指標 一個人渴望孤獨，但從不設法讓自己獨處； 一名女性很想結婚，卻躲避向她求愛的男性； 一位溺愛孩子的母親卻常常忘記他們的生日； 一個人對別人容忍、原諒，對自己卻苛刻、嚴厲…… ◎每一症狀都是衝突的直接或間接產物 在本書中，讀者將逐步看到未被解決的衝突對人有什麼影響，它是怎樣產生焦慮、壓抑、猶豫、遲鈍、孤立等狀態的。對成因的理解有助於我們將注意力從表現出的紊亂轉向紊亂的根源，儘管無法揭示根源的確切本質。 本書特色：本書是卡倫．荷妮對病人和自我進行分析後的經驗產物。全書分為兩大部分，第一部分闡述不同類型的精神衝突，包括親近、抵抗、迴避他人等，並探討根本原因和心理機制。第二部分則闡述未解決衝突可能導致的結果，如恐懼、人格衰竭、絕望和虐待傾向等。最終，作者透過深入探究人們的複雜內心，提出了解決之道。

為什麼聰明人也會做出愚蠢行為？從比爾‧柯林頓的醜聞到休‧葛蘭特的荒唐事件，再到不合理的怒吼、扭曲的自我認知，《與內在白癡共處》以幽默又犀利的筆觸，揭露人類潛意識中那個叫作「Inner Dummy」的原始衝動！心理作家大衛‧魏納融合佛洛伊德理論與演化心理學，解析我們腦中那渴望性、地位與生存的原始本能。讀者不僅能笑看社會奇聞，更能學會如何駕馭內心的白癡衝動，避免讓生活陷入災難。From the sexcapades of Bill Clinton to the unbelievable story of Hugh Grant and the prostitute; from the 15-year-old who weighs only 82 pounds but believes she's obese, to the professor who screams profanities at other drivers in snarled traffic--we wonder out loud, "What are they thinking?!" What drives so many apparently normal, intelligent people to act irrationally, harming themselves and others?According to Sigmund Freud, such behavior may be caused by the "id," our built-in mental invitation to everything from dangerous fun to horrendous acts of irrationality. For popular psychology writer David Weiner, "id" stands for "Inner Dummy," the part of the brain that we must come to understand if we are ever to know why we do foolish, irrational, and compulsive things. Drawing on the groundbreaking the

This book offers a fresh English interpretation of the ancient channels in Chinese medicine, drawing from some of its most authoritative historical texts.

In The New Politics of Beijing–Hong Kong Relations, Sonny Shiu-Hing Lo looks at the diverging changes to the ideologies from both Beijing and Hong Kong, and the ideological conflicts as taken in the form of factional political struggles between 2012 and the present. This book examines the paternalistic authoritarianism that can be seen in Beijing’s policy toward Hong Kong since the promulgation of the national security law in late June 2020. Lo analyzes the ideological shift from liberal nationalism to conservative nationalism in mainland China, which has taken place since late 2012. The increasingly radical localism in Hong Kong after 2014 transformed Beijing–Hong Kong relations into a conflict-ridden situation characterized by factional struggles. While the imposition of the national security law into Hong Kong since late June 2020 has stabilized the city politically, Beijing’s policy toward Hong Kong is now guided by the principles of protecting its national security and m
