Cambridge University Press The Creative Trance
Book SynopsisIn those moments when focus on creative work overrides input from the outside world, we are in a creative trance. This psychologically significant altered state of consciousness is inherent in everyone. It can take the form of daydreams generating scientific or creative ideas, hyperfocus in sports, visualizations that impact entire civilizations, life-changing audience experiences, or meditations for self-transformation that may access states beyond trance, becoming gateways to transcendence. Artist and psychologist Tobi Zausner shows how creative trance not only operates in scientific inventions and works of art in all media, but is also important in creating and recreating the self. Drawing on insights from cognitive neuroscience, clinical psychology and post-materialist psychology, this book investigates the diversity of the creative trance ranging from non-industrial societies to digital urban life, and its presence in people from all backgrounds and abilities. Finally, Zausner invTrade Review'An instant classic. Such a deep understanding of consciousness and creativity has nowhere previously been seen. Laced with rich stories of creators in the act of creating, this book is an engaging read and invaluable resource.' Alan Leslie Combs, Director at Consciousness Studies Center, California Institute of Integral Studies, USA'In this fascinating work, Dr Tobi Zausner explores and reveals the deep connections between altered states of consciousness and the creative process which she perfectly call the 'Creative Trance'. This book is not only deeply insightful but also inspirational since it is interwoven with her own experiences of altered states of consciousness and courageous battles with serious illness and difficulties in life. Thus, it is valuable to both scholars and general readers. I highly recommend the book.' Huping Hu, Editor of the Journal of Consciousness Exploration & Research, USA'Creativity and changed states of consciousness have been discussed before, but never with the erudition and depth that Dr Zausner has provided her readers in this remarkable book. Her investigation spans multiple disciplines, and she shares her findings in a lively account that marks a milestone in creativity studies.' Stanley Krippner, California Institute of Integral Studies, USA, and co-author of Personal Mythology'In her fascinating and inspiring book, The Creative Trance, Dr Zausner takes the reader on a 'vison quest' exploring this expansive territory of consciousness and its significance both culturally and individually. She aptly describes how 'the creative trance becomes a goal-achieving inner journey, a vacation with purpose'.' Pamela J. McCrory, Ph.D., Assistant Clinical Professor, Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Science, UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine, USA'This is a beautifully written, rich, and full presentation of creative trance and abilities flowing from this state of consciousness. The focus on individual stories and exploration of extraordinary experiences and abilities is captivating. A joyful, thought provoking, and inspiring read!' J. Kim Penberthy, Ph.D., ABPP, Chester F. Carlson Professor of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences, Division of Perceptual Studies, University of Virginia School of Medicine, USA'How little we know ourselves. Dr Zausner advises us never to forget our inner world, which can shape creative potential and astound us. Numerous case examples include highly focused periods of artistic creativity in a dementia patient (Rita Haworth) and lifesaving acts of creative heroism that should be impossible (a mother lifting a vehicle with superhuman strength). Here is a unique and engaging look at creativity and altered states across our lives. We humans are more amazing than we know. Be prepared to see things differently.' Ruth Richards, author, Everyday Creativity and the Healthy Mind: Dynamic New Paths for Self and Society (2018), and co-editor with David Schuldberg and Shan Guisinger, Chaos and Nonlinear Psychology: Keys to Creativity in Mind and Life (2022)'Before reading The Creative Trance, be sure to put on your seatbelt. It will likely profoundly change your understanding of how we humans think and feel, as well as provide you with deep insights into the lives of many famous people, ranging from Albert Einstein to Wolfang Mozart. A brilliant, deeply moving work that will help you think more effectively.' Neil F. Comins, Professor of Physics and Astronomy, University of Maine, USA'Tobi Zausner takes us on a riveting, multifaceted exploration of this core aspect of human nature and potential that is as transformative as the Creative Trance experience itself. Our understanding of the creativity-consciousness relationship and why it is important just took another leap forward. The voice of the creative practitioner needs to assume a far more prominent role in the nature-of-consciousness quest, and this book helps us turn that corner. Let us continue to build on these foundations.' Ed Sarath, Professor of Music and Co-Director of U-M Program in Creativity and Consciousness, University of Michigan, USA and Author of Improvisation, Creativity and Consciousness and Black Music Matters'As the field of psychology struggles between its identify as either a science or an art, Zausner's study, the new fields of NeuroArts, and research into creativity and the brain overcome old splits between science and art. In this book, Zausner identifies a way to clearly bridge both. As an experienced clinician as well as a researcher, she is also able to differentiate creative trance states from pathological dissociative states. The addition of neurodiversity is critical as Zausner legitimized the exploration and acceptance of new ways of understanding cognition and the word trance. This exhaustive book is highly recommended for both beginning and advanced professionals in the healing arts, as well as the general public. It should be on every psychology teacher's reading list and available in university libraries.' Ilene A.

Paige Rivard, MBA, CEO Prader-Willi Syndrome Association, USA'The Neuro-behavioral Manifestations of Prader-Willi Syndrome provides an in-depth look at those aspects of PWS that families struggle with every day. From anxiety to behavioral outbursts to frank mental illness, Dr Singh and colleagues provide insight and a holistic approach to managing some of the most difficult aspects of the syndrome. The chapters are written with sufficient detail to be highly informative for clinicians and health care providers who wish to become more knowledgeable about PWS, while the 'Note to Caregiver' section in each chapter will be particularly helpful for families. This book is bound to be an important and well-used resource for anyone caring for a person with PWS.' Theresa V. Strong, Ph.D., Director of Research Programs, Foundation for Prader-Willi Research'In this book, Dr Deepan Singh, along with other contributors, has set out his perspective as a psychiatrist seeing people with PWS in the context of the American health system. I admire his commitment seeking to cover this complex area in these 15 chapters, which range widely in their content including topics as diverse as caregiver burden and the neurobiology of PWS.

Cambridge University Press Storying Mental Illness and Personal Recovery
Book SynopsisThis book elucidates how narrative identity is crucial to understanding mental illness and personal recovery. It analyses over 100 personal stories shared by individuals with mental illness, and provides guidance to facilitate recovery. Useful for mental health researchers and professionals as well as individuals experiencing mental illness.Trade Review'Through a broad and expansive overview, beautifully interweaving research findings with individuals' own stories, they provide a highly readable and articulate conception of the ways in which narrative identity is central to understanding the causes, consequences, and lived experience of mental illness. With great deftness, they present a counter-narrative of cultural conceptions of mental illness that help the reader to understand the complexity of living a meaningful life in the midst of mental illness.' Robyn Fivush, Emory University, USA'This new work comprehensively tackles directly issues of narrative identity, mental illness, and personal recovery. It delves deeply into how persons make personal sense of the challenges which surround mental illness, as well as their own emergent path to a fully meaningful life. While it reminds us of these neglected issues, it also breaks new ground, bringing scientific inquiry to these deeply subjective aspects of human experience.' Paul H. Lysaker, IUPUI School of Science, USA'Psychiatric illness is a thief in the night, upending our lives by stealing the very stories we live by. In this groundbreaking study of narrative identity and psychopathology, Dorthe Thomsen and her colleagues reveal the horrific costs incurred, as well as the occasional benefits, by examining how people afflicted with major mental disorders make narrative sense of their lived experience. Blending rigorous scholarship with deep empathy, the authors chart the many variations on the theme of psychological suffering that appear in first-person accounts, and they show that hope for a better life lies in narrative repair – that is, in the prospect of re-writing our life stories to recover what has been taken away from us, and thereby re-affirming personal wellbeing and human connection.' Dan P. McAdams, The Henry Wade Rogers Professor of Psychology, Northwestern University, USA'This elegantly written and scientifically sound book shows that narrative psychology provides unique insights into mental illness not captured by traditional medical and psychological research, covering themes that humans hold most dear: themes of loss of time, loss of future, loss of self, loss of relationships, and loss of life. This timely book not only provides a moving account of lived experience of mental illness, but offers the methodological tools to study it further, with the ultimate hope of improving our treatments, which are, admittedly, in need of reform. A must-read book for clinicians, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding mental illness from the inside out.' Carla Sharp, University of Houston, USA'This is an important book. The focus on life stories aligns with the global movement toward positioning experiential knowledge of individuals living with mental health issues at the center of health and social care systems. Narrative approaches will become increasingly important in mental health care, and this book makes an original contribution which has wide relevance to anyone trying to support individuals experiencing mental health issues.

Cambridge University Press How People Matter
Book SynopsisMattering, which is about feeling valued and adding value, is essential for health, happiness, love, work, and social well-being. We all need to feel valued by, and add value to, ourselves, others, co-workers, and community members. This book shows not only the signs, significance, and sources of mattering, but also presents the strategies to achieve mattering in our personal and professional lives. It uses research-based methods of change to help people achieve a higher sense of purpose and a deeper sense of meaning. Each chapter gives therapists, managers, teachers, parents, and healthcare professionals the tools needed to optimize personal and collective well-being and productivity. The volume explains how promoting mattering within communities fosters wellness and fairness in equal measure. By using the new science of feeling valued and adding value, the authors provide a guide to promoting happier lives and healthier societies.Trade Review'This deeply illuminating volume is essential reading for those interested in mattering, meaning in life, and mental health. The authors provide a wonderfully comprehensive, integrative overview of mattering in a wide variety of domains. I recommend this ground-breaking book as the go-to resource.' Mario Mikulincer, Founding Dean, Baruch Ivcher School of Psychology, Interdisciplinary Center'In this brilliant book, the authors elevate the notion of mattering. It is written in a personal, evocative, and passionate way, using the authors' own meaningful encounters alongside critically needed ideas. The book reads like a fascinating novel that creates a framework for a more authentic life and just world.' David Blustein, Duganne Faculty Fellow and Professor of Education and Human Development, Boston College'What a great book on mattering! The authors have a real gift for turning complex academic ideas into something that many people can understand and apply to their own lives. The mattering wheel is a great resource around which we can plan actions to ensure that everyone matters.' Angie Hart, Professor of Child, Family and Community Health, University of Brighton'It is difficult to describe all that the Prilleltenskys have accomplished with How People Matter. With gentleness and humor, the book embraces big, important elements under the heading of mattering: love, political action, Black Lives Matter, meaning in life, meaning to each other. They show the inseparability of social currents from our own well-being as they incisively describe contemporary 'me culture'; they introduce illuminating new concepts like 'wellfair' and the building of a 'caring sector' in society; they offer clear, helpful strategies for putting their concepts to work in our lives. Loving, funny, brilliant, honest, and open, the Prilleltenskys emerge as the kind of friends that we all wish we had. Their work is liberation psychology for everyone.' Laura Smith, Columbia University, and author of Psychology, Poverty, and the End of Social Exclusion'How People Matter is a wonderfully detailed user's guide to help people feel valued for what they do and actually add value with what they do. It combines discussion of relevant research with lots of very practical tips that will help us lead more useful, productive, and fulfilling lives. There is a valuable lesson on almost every page.' Barry Schwartz, University of California, Berkeley, and author of Why We Work and Practical Wisdom'A book on mattering or feeling valued and adding value is timely and immensely critical. This book deepens our understanding of the power of dignity and self-worth and calls us to action as individuals and as a 'collective we' to enhance mattering for all. It spans the arenas of mattering for the self, for relationships, for work, and for communities, giving us frameworks and tools to spur understanding and action. It marries concerns for wellness and fairness at all levels and offers inspiration and actions to make their fusion a reality. The book is both practical and wise, integrating diverse streams of social science to make mattering a process we can appreciate, understand, and act upon.' Jane Dutton, Robert L. Kahn Distinguished University Professor Emerita of Business Administration, University of Michigan, and author of Awakening Compassion at Work'This book is a joy to read and I did not want it to end. It should go a long way toward making mattering a bigger focus in the academic community and in people's lives. But what most comes through these pages is the heart and humanity of Isaac and Ora Prilleltensky. They remind us that mattering, like life, is about people, and it represents a way forward during a time when a way forward is perhaps needed more than ever.' Gordon Flett, York University, Toronto, and author of The Psychology of Mattering'Feeling good by doing good has the ring of a self-help cliché. There is a healthy dollop of self-help in this entertaining and beautifully written book - but there is also so much more. Adding value to others and oneself is a credo for how to create a better society, one that fosters good relationships and well-being. And it is all based on evidence that takes us from the individual, relationships, and work to what needs to happen in society. Psychology in a very social perspective - grand.' Sir Michael Marmot, University College London, and author of the The Status Syndrome: How Social Standing Affects Our Health and Longevity, and The Health Gap: The Challenge of an Unequal World'This book is a much-needed read for professionals, especially those in leadership positions, but ultimately for anyone who honors the importance of living a more meaningful life and nurturing a higher level of belonging during the current turbulent times … Highly recommended.' J. E. Perez, CHOICE'Through How People Matter, Isaac and Ora Prilleltensky make a critical and timely call: to pursue meaning, to balance rights and responsibilities, to seek both wellness and fairness, at home, at work, and in social life. It is a judicious appeal for our troubled times.' Julio Frenk, MD, MPH, PhD, President, University of Miami'In their insightful and compelling book, Isaac and Ora Prilleltensky offer us a path out of our current crisis of self-absorption and self-obsession. They do this by teaching us how to balance our concern with our own wellbeing with actions that promote the well-being of others, and by helping us recognize that all of us - especially those whose skin color, income, birthplace, or disability status differs from our own - matter.' Mark Pancer, Professor Emeritus, Wilfrid Laurier University, and author of The Psychology of Civic Engagement'How People Matter is a timely challenge to the notion of self-absorption that threatens our humanity and our planet. An in-depth explanation of personal and political dimensions of mattering within the arenas of self, relationships, work, and community is skillfully integrated with practical guidelines for finding balance between valuing the self and adding value in all these arenas. This inspiring work can be applied in any context to facilitate transformation toward wellness and fairness for all.' Ansie Elizabeth Kitching, Associate Professor in Educational Psychology, University of the Western Cape, South Africa'With their new book How People Matter, Isaac and Ora Prilleltensky join the ranks of Martin Seligman and Brené Brown as brilliant scientists and teachers who translate what they have learned into accessible and practical advice. By exploring the role of mattering to self, to others, at work, and within a community, the Prilleltenskys provide a thoughtful road map for how adding value and feeling valued leads to a fulfilling life.' Julie Haizlip, University of Virginia Schools of Nursing and Medicine'Increasing employee engagement and creating inclusive environments are hot topics on corporate 'to-do' lists. But many leadership teams struggle with how to accomplish these goals and how to know what initiatives will make a cultural impact. The psychological concept of mattering can provide a road map for leaders looking to develop productive and positive energy in their organization. In this fascinating and extremely practical new book, the authors provide a great resource for leaders to create an environment where employees feel seen, heard, and appreciated and where they can make a contribution to the enterprise. This is creating an environment where people feel they are valued and their work is valuable. This is mattering, a topic every manager should master. Let Isaac and Ora be your guides!' Rebecca Lamperski, Executive Director, Learning and Development, Comcast University'Using humor, research, and real-life examples, Ora and Isaac Prilleltensky deftly lay out the foundation of why mattering is so important to wellbeing and happiness. Here they offer a practical approach to how we can feel valued and add value in all areas of life. This book is not only timely but also necessary for personal and systemic change.'
