  • Islamic Psychology
    Islamic Psychology Islamic Psychology or ilm an-nafs (science of the soul) is an important introductory textbook drawing on the latest evidence in the sub-disciplines of psychology to provide a balanced and comprehensive view of human nature, behaviour and experience. Its foundation to develop theories about human nature is based upon the writings of the Qur’an, Sunnah, Muslim scholars and contemporary research findings. Synthesising contemporary empirical psychology and Islamic psychology, this book is holistic in both nature and process and includes the physical, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions of human behaviour and experience. Through a broad and comprehensive scope, the book addresses three main areas: Context, perspectives and the clinical applications of applied psychology from an Islamic approach. This book is a core text on Islamic psychology for undergraduate and postgraduate students and those undertaking continuing professional development courses in Islamic psychology, psychotherapy and counselling. Beyond this, it is also a good supporting resource for teachers and lecturers in this field. Dr G. Hussein Rassool is Professor of Islamic Psychology, Consultant and Director for the Riphah Institute of Clinical and Professional Psychology/Centre for Islamic Psychology, Pakistan. He is accountable for the supervision and management of the four psychology departments, and has responsibility for scientific, educational and professional standards, and efficiency. He manages and coordinates the RICPP/Centre for Islamic Psychology programme of research and educational development in Islamic psychology, clinical interventions and service development, and liaises with the Head of the Departments of Psychology to assist in the integration of Islamic psychology and Islamic ethics in educational programmes and development of research initiatives and publication of research.

The Mountain of a Thousand Holes Shipwreck Traditions and Treasure Hunting on Oregon’s North Coast CAMERON LA FOLLETTE, DENNIS GRIFFIN, AND DOUGLAS DEUR EURO-AMERICANS in coastal communities conflated and amplified Native American oral traditions of shipwrecks in Tillamook County, increasingly focusing the stories on buried treasure. This focus led to a trickle, and then a procession, of treasure-seekers visiting the northern Oregon coast, reach- ing full crescendo by the mid to late twentieth century. The seekers’ theo- ries ranged from the fairly straightforward to the wildly carnivalesque, with many bizarre permutations. Neahkahnie Mountain and its beaches became the premier treasure-hunting sites in Oregon, based on the mountain’s prominence in popular lore, linked to unverified stories about the wreck of a Spanish ship.

  • Four Turning Points in Columbia's History
    COLUMBIA columbia university DIGITAL KNOWLEDGE VENTURES OUR PAST ENGAGED: FOUR TURNING POINTS IN COLUMBIA’S HISTORY April 27, 2004 ROBERT McCAUGHEY COLUMBIA '68: A CHAPTER IN THE HISTORY OF STUDENT POWER Welcome and Introduction Eric Foner: Hello everybody. And welcome to the fourth of the four panels' lectures, "Our Past Engaged: Four Turning Points in Columbia's Recent History." I notice that we have a group of guests here. I'm not sure what they are planning or hoping to do, but as long as they are peaceful and quiet and do not disrupt the proceedings, if they want to sit there it's fine with me. On the other hand, I hope and expect that the discussion will go on in the way that we expect here at the University, in a reasoned and academic manner. I was also asked to announce that the previous lectures in this series, as well as much supporting material about the 250th anniversary of Columbia University, is available on the Columbia 250 Web site, which can be accessed through the Columbia Web site—the home page—which you all probably know about. So I'm Eric Foner from the history department, and I've been asked to be the moderator. I'm very happy to be here tonight. And the first thing that I want to do is to identify Professor Robert McCaughey, who is the speaker tonight, but also to indicate that he has really been the one who has organized these sessions. He's written a most remarkable, wonderful book on the history of Columbia, Stand Columbia, and he has been the person who introduced the previous three speakers.

  • The Circumcision Decision
    Parent Empowerment Newsletter LA Kelley Communications, Inc. inside 3 As I See It: Don’t Fear Heights 4 Inhibitor Insights: Resources 5 Richard’s Review: A Mummy with Hemophilia 6 YOU: No Matter How You Cut It... Just A Snip? The Circumcision Decision Paul Clement reparing for the birth of a baby boy is a time of many decisions. Along with choosing a Pdoctor, a car seat and a stroller, setting up the nursery, buying baby clothes, arranging for childcare and a hundred other things, you must make this important decision: Should you circumcise your child with hemophilia? Neonatal circumcision, or surgical removal of the foreskin of the penis of a newborn, is the most commonly performed neonatal surgery in the US. It’s also the focus of spirited debate over ethics and medical necessity. Is circumcision beneficial, necessary, or harmful? How do you decide what’s best for your son? Circumcision in the US This may surprise you, but most of the world’s males are uncircumcised, about 70%. Of the 30% who are circumcised, 70% are circumcised as part of a religious ritual of Islam and 1% of Judaism. Aside from the US, most of the developed world does not perform routine neonatal circumcisions for nonreligious purposes. In the US, circumcision for nonreligious reasons dates back only to 1870, when Dr. Lewis Sayre, an eminent New York physician, campaigned for the procedure as a treatment for myriad diseases and disorders. Sayre advocated circumcision for both sexes to “prevent” masturbation.

    i New Vessel Press 2017 –18 New Vessel Press, founded in New York City in 2012, is an independent pub- lishing house specializing in the translation of foreign literature into English. By bringing readers foreign literature and narrative non-fiction, we offer cap- tivating, thought-provoking works with beautifully designed covers and high production values. We scour the globe looking for the best stories, knowing that only about three percent of the books published in the United States each year are translations. That leaves a lot of great literature still to be discovered. At New Vessel Press, we believe that knowledge of foreign cultures and litera- tures enriches our lives by offering passageways to understand and embrace the world. We regard literary translation as both craft and art, enabling us to tra- verse borders and open minds. We are committed to books that offer erudition and enjoyment, stimulate and scintillate, transform and transport. And of course, what matters most is not where the authors hail from, or what language they write in. The most important thing is the quality of the work itself. And hence our name. We publish great books, just in a new vessel. Our books have received a wide array of accolades, from The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal to The New Yorker and O, The Oprah Magazine. We are confident that our 2017-18 offerings will continue to make their mark and look forward to bringing the world’s great literature to ever more readers. 1 2 THE MADELEINE PROJECT By Clara Beaudoux / France Translated by Alison Anderson NONFICTION September 2017 5 ½ x 8 ¼ / 304 pp Trade Paper $23.95 978-1-939931-49-8 “Tells history in a brilliant, original way for the 21st century ..

  • Ashbury Neighborhood the Haight
    Wool 1 Sophie Wool Professor Vilja Hulden HIST 4435 9 April 2019 The Death of the Haight- Ashbury Neighborhood The Haight Ashbury neighborhood in San Francisco was the center of counterculture in the 1960’s. The counterculture of San Francisco in the 1960’s worked to reMove itself from MainstreaM society by creating their own realM on the outside of “normal”. The counterculture aMong the youth in San Francisco, contrary to popular belief, was a highly disorganized MoveMent with little to no political motives. It was an oddly unified chaos fueled by the idea of trying to find oneself and dig deeper into the individual. While many other youth moveMents were focused on the ideas of coming together in society, the counterculture in Haight-Ashbury focused on the individual. The counterculture moveMent that evolved in the Haight during the 1960’s was doomed to end from the start as the ideals of dropping out of society could never fully be achieved. Once the moveMent was picked up by the main streaM media, the people of the neighborhood felt that they were in a zoo as people from all over flocked to San Francisco to witness and sometiMes even try and take part in their culture. The music and events that evolved within the Haight neighborhood becaMe one of the main outlets of expression for the hippies as it works hand in hand with the culture that they created there. The music scene and sound showcase ideals of individuality and the uniqueness of it all shows how the hippies were trying to create their own reality and separate from the mainstreaM.

  • PLU Class of 1968 Memory Book
    PLU Class of 1968 Memory Book 1964-65: Freshman Year Our freshman year began in early September 1964. The bewilderment of college classes, new living quarters, and new roommates was quickly replaced by the inevitable—beanies! Did you wear a bib? Or carry a pillow around all day? Or play some dumb part in the freshman initiation skits in Eastvold? PLU's campus was in transition to what it would later become. Many old buildings on lower campus, since demolished, were still in place then. Remember Clover Creek Hall? It sat where Tinglestad does now. Pflueger Hall was about the newest thing on campus. Later that year, what would eventually be Foss Hall first took shape as a muddy swamp on lower campus. Elsewhere on lower campus, the swimming pool was completed during the school year and opened for student use. On upper campus, a street still ran in front of the Administration Building and the CUB. Many of today's large trees were just being planted. And other than Harstad, the main women's dorms still sported their old nondescript directional names—North, South, and West. We went to chapel, where attendance was required four days a week. Many of us began our chapel careers in the balcony of Eastvold, where we liked the first chapel talks so much we applauded for them. About a week later, a note signed by Dr. Mortvedt, PI-I-I's President, appeared in the daily chapel bulletin. The note pointed out in no uncertain terms that applause was not part of chapel.
