One of the most striking features of contemporary psychology is the return of language of the 'soul' in contemporary discourse. In this original analysis Dr Peter Tyler investigates the origins and use of 'soul-language' in the Christian tradition before turning his attention to the evolution and preoccupations of modern psychoanalysis. In his forensic examination he explores the dynamics of psychoanalysis as a 'tool to rediscover the soul' of the 21st century seeker. Central to his book is the perceived clash between analysis and the spiritual tradition. His uncompromising conclusion is that the dialogue of the two in our present time will have far-reaching repercussions for church, society and future human well-being.

Sitting in the middle of my bed was a pale, hairless creature... The abnormally long fingers of its hands tapered to fine points at the ends. Instead of legs, its lower body formed into a snake-like tail that trailed off the end of the bed. It had small, black, beady eyes and a large black mouth with black teeth. It wasn't until it started laughing at me that I truly started to panic.Carl Miller saw a demon. His life had been one big party. The drugs were a lark, a high that he never wanted to live without. But that night, the night he almost OD'd, he saw the true reflection of his inner demon. This is a unique story about a boy's journey into the horrific life of addiction. Chances are you probably know someone just like him. Someone lost in addiction. Someone who, no matter what the consequences, can't find his or her way out of the grip of their chosen substance. Drugs aren't simply something they don't want to live without—they can't live without them. Author Carl Miller was that person for over twenty years, and this is the story of how he spiraled down into addiction and what delivered him from his demons. This is a story of, 'What if?' What if there is more to addiction than just some baffling disease that afflicts some people. What if there is a spiritual battle taking place all around us, all the time? What if there are forces inRelentless Pursuit of a Soul?

The most recent mystical theology scholarship - a discipline that has found new energy and influence. This is examined through the lens of Wittgenstein's philosophy.

Ibn Miskawayh, the Soul, and the Pursuit of Happiness explores the moral philosophy and context of Ibn Miskawayh (932–1030), an advocate of the intellectually cultivated life with a strong religious bent. Though not necessarily a major innovator, he sought through his writings to provide a moral compass for turbulent times, much like thinkers such as Petrarch (1304–1374), Pico della Mirandola (1463–1494), Francois Rabelais (1494–1553), Montesquieu (1689–1755) or more recently, Mortimer Adler (1902–2001). Despite the tumultuous times in which they lived, these thinkers offered the world hope through a humanism that cultivated both civic and moral character. Whether directly expressed in his moral philosophy or illustrated in the examples of renowned or notorious historical figures, Miskawayh’s core idea is that one’s character is much easier kept than recovered. In this book, John Peter Radez shows how Miskawayh stands out not only as one of Islam’s first ethicists, but also one of its true intellectuals: thinker, historian, codifier of the science of adab, and a truly happy sage who represented the best of his generation’s intellectual and cultural elite. Miskawayh’s message of how to create lives worthy of human beings—his civic humanism—resonates today.
