Traveling through Time
Author: M Gerard Fromm
Publisher: Phoenix Publishing House
ISBN: 1800131127
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
"Bullets don't just travel through skin and bone. They travel through time." These words were tattooed onto the shoulder of a young woman whose father was shot during "The Troubles" in Northern Ireland. This wrenching, volatile but also binding truth is the subject of this book. It's a truth about traumatic experiences that happen to a family, but also to a society, and to the organizations that link these intimate units with the larger context of history and culture. It's also a truth about the way trauma plays out over time, including between generations. Grounded in Erik Erikson's "way of looking at things", the book is a journal of encounters between clinical psychoanalysis and other disciplines, and an inquiry into what might be learned there for both. Sometimes that learning has to do with trauma: the way in which what can't be emotionally contained, thought about or spoken in one part of a system is passed along, with disorganizing, sometimes heartbreaking consequences, to another. After a reflection on dignity, the book examines intergenerational trauma in families, including Erikson's. It then illustrates how trauma to organizations slips below the threshold of awareness and yet continues to wear down its members. The final section examines aspects of the larger society, including radicalization, war trauma, the pandemic and cultural healing. What emerges is the sober yet hopeful truth that what people discover by taking their own emotional experiences seriously, though that might markedly differ from what is accepted in the everyday world, is a primary path toward recovery from trauma.

Time Travel in Einstein's Universe
Author: J. Richard Gott
Publisher: HMH
ISBN: 0547526571
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
A Princeton astrophysicist explores whether journeying to the past or future is scientifically possible in this “intriguing” volume (Neil deGrasse Tyson). It was H. G. Wells who coined the term “time machine”—but the concept of time travel, both forward and backward, has always provoked fascination and yearning. It has mostly been dismissed as an impossibility in the world of physics; yet theories posited by Einstein, and advanced by scientists including Stephen Hawking and Kip Thorne, suggest that the phenomenon could actually occur. Building on these ideas, J. Richard Gott, a professor who has written on the subject for Scientific American, Time, and other publications, describes how travel to the future is not only possible but has already happened—and contemplates whether travel to the past is also conceivable. This look at the surprising facts behind the science fiction of time travel “deserves the attention of anyone wanting wider intellectual horizons” (Booklist). “Impressively clear language. Practical tips for chrononauts on their options for travel and the contingencies to prepare for make everything sound bizarrely plausible. Gott clearly enjoys his subject and his excitement and humor are contagious; this book is a delight to read.” —Publishers Weekly

An Islamic Approach to Time Travel
Author: AHMET YAZICI
Publisher: AHMET YAZICI
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 93
Book Description
Is time travel possible? Can man travel to the future or the past? Or can one travel to new dimensions by discovering new devices? The most general definition of time travel is the ability to travel to any time period or location of your choosing based on your own decisions. While science anticipates the issue, Sufism has been quietly living this experience within itself for 1000s of years, counting the saints in previous nations. In this material world, we are living a life of limited knowledge and experience, enslaved to worldliness. A century ago, technologies such as mobile phones, television, and the internet were considered to be quite far-fetched and impossible technologies and science fiction stories. So is a phenomenon like time travel. Although this has not been proven in terms of science, films made, books written, and articles published on this subject for years show that it is not impossible to travel in time. Leaving the part of the issue that concerns science to science, I will deal with the Islamic and Sufi and logical aspects. This work, which I have supported with the lived saints' stories, is also the first work I published in the year 2023. I hope you will like it.
