Self and Identity: The Basics is a jargon-free and accessible introduction that draws on key theories and ideas in social psychology to explore the ways that other people affect our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Highlighting selfhood as a function of identity, the book shows that it is our relationships with others in our social world that largely determine who we are. 'Who am I?' It's a question that most all humans have grappled with at some point or another. This book seeks to answer this question through relatable examples that show how psychological theory can be applied to our own lives. It considers the philosophical and psychological context in which ideas about selfhood have developed and reviews the ways that the people around us, and the groups that we belong to, affect who we are. Finally, these ideas are considered in the context of real-world phenomena and behaviors; for instance, how we use language, conflict between groups, and social influence. This book is an ideal introduction for students of social psychology and related fields. It will be of interest to anyone who wants to gain social psychological insight into who they are and how others got them there.

Imitation: The Basics is an engaging introduction to the topic of imitation behavior in humans, providing a summary of existing scientific research on imitation, covering everything from examples of imitation across each developmental stage to animal imitation such as monkeys imitating each other. The authors argue that imitation forms the foundation of long-lasting relationships, including those between children and parents, as well as intimate partners. Structured to resemble a human lifetime, chapters explore the reasons behind why people imitate, and address imitation across all phases of life, starting from infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and ending with late adulthood. The authors describe characteristic forms of imitation that occur in these life stages and provide answers to the following important questions: Who do humans imitate? Who is more likely to imitate others? What kind of behaviors do humans imitate? Is there a dark side of imitation? When do humans imitate each other? And are there cultural differences in imitation? Written in a clear and accessible style, this book is perfect for undergraduate students of social psychology, developmental psychology and neuroscience, as well as professionals, academics and any general listeners interested in research about human social behavior.

The Emotional Roots of Chronic Illness: Homeopathy for Existential Stress
• Explains how to use prominent emotional and physical symptoms to determine the core existential stress underlying one's chronic condition • Introduces five, seminal existential questions correlating with both the five miasms of homeopathy and the Five Phases of Traditional Chinese Medicine • Presents homeopathic remedies connected to specific existential quandaries and explains their indications through detailed examples from the author's practice In addition to working well for physical ailments, homeopathy offers remedies for engaging with the subconscious mind to ameliorate embedded, existential causes of chronic illness— called "miasms." Jerry M. Kantor presents diagnostic insight, specific homeopathic remedies, and successful case studies about the profound connections between emotions and their physical manifestations in illness. He further correlates the five classical miasms and their core existential quandaries with the Five Elements and Phase Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine. He likens inborn foundational emotions to tools, each one designed to solve a stress-related problem. Self-sabotaging imbalances occur when an emotional tool is excessively used. He explains how identifying a default emotional response—such as anxiety or anger—along with its accompanying physical symptoms can determine the core existential stress or hereditary pattern underlying a chronic condition. For each of the five classical miasms and their associated physical and emotional conditions, the author presents homeopathic remedies that mollify the impact of specific existential quandaries and explains their indications through detailed examples from his practice. Revealing that the subconscious mind is amenable to change, Kantor shows how to accurately select remedies to defuse the energetic charge of unresolved existential stress and thus quell the root causes of chronic illness.

[Spanish] - El vacío existencial
La persona con vacío existencial se aburre con frecuencia, es pesimista y padece de apatía. No encuentra nada que le genera entusiasmo o que le provoque alegría: por el contrario, siente que no hay ningún objetivo que valga la pena. Es importante tener en cuenta que, en determinadas situaciones, es normal que un sujeto sienta un vacío. Eso sucede, por ejemplo, cuando se muda o cuando sufre la muerte de un familiar. Si dicha sensación de vacío se extiende en el tiempo, puede hablarse de un vacío existencial debido a que la persona no logró “llenar” ese espacio con otra motivación o emoción.
