Warum Gespräche scheitern: Gelassen mit schwierigen Menschen umgehen
by Rainer SachseDieser Ratgeber hilft Ihnen, wenn Sie im Alltag regelmäßig schwierigen Interaktionssituationen ausgesetzt sind. Beispiel: Interaktionspartner kritisieren, werten ab, reagieren ärgerlich aus scheinbar nichtigen Anlässen, geben Anweisungen, ohne dazu berechtigt zu sein, manipulieren usw. Solche Handlungen gehen meist von Personen aus, die sogenannte Persönlichkeitsstile oder Persönlichkeitsstörungen aufweisen. Sie empfinden das als stressig, unangenehm, belastend oder ärgerlich und es ist meist schwierig, konstruktiv damit umzugehen? Dann sind Sie in bester Gesellschaft. Das Buch soll verständlich machen, warum Personen solche Handlungen ausführen, was sie damit wollen und wie Sie konstruktiv damit umgehen können. Geeignet für Partnerschaft, Familie, bei der Arbeit mit Kollegen und Chefs oder auch bei Menschen, mit denen man nur wenig (aber schwierigen) Kontakt hat. Hilfreiche Strategien aus dem Inhalt: Gelassen bleiben, entspannt bleiben – nicht aggressiv reagieren – nicht mit gleicher Strategie aufwarten – nicht defensiv reagieren – souverän bleiben. Über den Autor: Prof. Dr. Rainer Sachse macht komplexe psychologische Sachverhalte allgemein verständlich und stellt sie humorvoll und einfühlsam dar. Das ist für Laien ebenso mit Gewinn lesbar wie für Fachkolleginnen und -kollegen.
Warum Impfungen für Mensch und Gesellschaft so wichtig sind: Ein Überblick für Wissenschaftler, Mediziner und Politiker (essentials)
by Heiko HerwaldIn der Geschichte der Menschheit haben Seuchen und Plagen immer wieder eine Spur von Leid und Tod hinterlassen. Auch in der Zukunft werden wir nicht von Pandemien, die über uns hereinbrechen werden, verschont bleiben. Der Ausbruch von COVID-19 kann daher auch als der Beginn einer neuen Bedrohung, die von lebensgefährlichen Infektionskrankheiten ausgeht, angesehen werden. Ursache hierfür sind unter anderem die menschengemachte Zerstörung unseres Lebensraums, der damit verbundene Rückgang der Artenvielfalt und eine aggressive Agrarwirtschaft. Als dies hat jetzt schon zu einer Zunahme von zoonotischen Infektionskrankheiten und antibiotikaresistenten Erregern geführt. Um sich auf diese Gefahren vorzubereiten, muss die Weltgemeinschaft enger zusammenrücken und an gemeinsamen Lösungen arbeiten, bei denen nationale politische, wirtschaftliche, ethnische und religiöse Hürden überwunden werden müssen. Impfkampagnen werden hierzu einen wichtigen Beitrag leisten, da es zurzeit kaum andere Alternativen zur Bekämpfung von Pandemien gibt.
Was die Chirurgie fürs Leben lehrt: Erfolgsrezepte eines erfahrenen Operateurs
by Rüdiger HorstmannÄrzte gelten als Halbgötter in Weiß und Chirurgen sind für viele so etwas wie die Elite der Ärzteschaft. Der Chirurg hat das Image eines Machers, er fasziniert, sein Alltag erscheint vielen unheimlich spannend und spektakulär. Schließlich verabreicht er keine Pillen, nein, er schneidet in die Haut – und das ist immer eine Grenzerfahrung.Dieses Buch ermöglicht einen Blick hinter die hermetisch verschlossenen Türen der OP-Säle. Was geht dort vor sich? Welche Fähigkeiten muss der Operateur besitzen? Wie fokussiert er sich und wie bekommt er seine Emotionen in den Griff? Fragen wie diese werden in den dreizehn Kapiteln des Buches beantwortet – und das nicht in Form theoretischer Abhandlungen oder fiktiver Geschichten, sondern anhand ganz konkreter Erfahrungen des Autors, die er in seiner über 40-jährigen beruflichen Laufbahn sammeln durfte.Und es zieht Parallelen zum Leben außerhalb der Krankenhäuser, da letztlich in jedem Unternehmen und für jeden Menschen dieselben Fähigkeiten und Eigenschaften wichtig sind: sich fokussieren und Ziele setzen, handeln und Druck von außen managen, innovativ sein und das Team einbinden. Mit den konkreten Handlungsanleitungen gelingt die Umsetzung ganz einfach im Beruf oder privaten Alltag.

Was macht ein gelungenes Leben aus?: Weisheiten der Stoiker und moderne Forschung zu Glück und Emotionsregulation
by Sven BarnowIIn diesem Buch geht es darum, die Annahmen der Stoiker mit der aktuellen Emotions- und Glücksforschung zu verbinden. Das stoische Versprechen, dass mit Übung und Praxis stoischen Denkens der Mensch auch schwere Stürme des Lebens gelassen überstehen und sogar daran wachsen kann, ist ermutigend. Aber ist es auch wahr? Leser und Leserinnen, die sich für den Stoizismus interessieren und sich gleichzeitig einen gut lesbaren Überblick über die aktuelle Glücks- und Emotionsforschung verschaffen wollen, sei dieses Buch ans Herz gelegt. Aus dem Inhalt: Stoische Lebensleitlinien: Prinzip 1: Lebe fokussiert, hüte dich vor Ablenkungen. Prinzip 2: Lebe einfach. Prinzip 3: Lerne die Emotionen zu beherrschen, um glücklich zu sein. Prinzip 4: Minimiere die egozentrischen Bedürfnisse des Egos. Prinzip 5: Hinterfrage dein Verlangen nach Anerkennung. Prinzip 6: Akzeptiere, was nicht deiner Kontrolle obliegt. Prinzip 7: Übe Dich in Dankbarkeit. Über den Autor: Prof. Dr. Sven Barnow leitet den Lehrstuhl für Klinische Psychologie und Psychotherapie am Psychologischen Institut der Universität Heidelberg. Neben seinem wissenschaftlichen Engagement im Bereich der Emotionsforschung interessiert er sich für den Stoizismus, da diese Lebensphilosophie sich unter anderem mit der Frage auseinandersetzt hat: Wie Emotionen regulieren?
