Sommes-nous tous des narcissiques en puissance ? Il existe toutes sortes de personnalités narcissiques : le narcissisme positif est celui qui conduit à la créativité, à réaliser des œuvres littéraires, politiques, ou des découvertes scientifiques. Mais il y a aussi un narcissisme négatif, celui des personnalités narcissiques instables et dépressives, et enfin un narcissisme sombre et malveillant. Ce livre vous propose des solutions pour mieux vivre avec ces personnalités, ou s'en séparer sans dommage. Il permet aussi d'apprendre à se protéger du narcissisme machiavélique de ceux qui veulent à tout prix vous dominer. Il présente enfin une réflexion originale sur l'éducation positive pour apaiser la génération « moi je » et tempérer le choc des narcissismes culturels, largement présents dans la société d'aujourd'hui. Un livre pour aider et soigner ceux qui en ont besoin, afin de les réconcilier avec une bonne estime de soi, respectueuse des autres. Jean Cottraux est psychiatre honoraire des hôpitaux, habilité à la direction de recherche, ancien chargé de cours à l'université Lyon-I, et membre fondateur de l'Académie de thérapie cognitive de Philadelphie. Il est l'auteur de : La Force avec soi. Pour une psychologie positive, Les Ennemis intérieurs. Obsessions et compulsions, La Répétition des scénarios de vie, publiés aux éditions Odile Jacob, qui ont été de grands succès.

" A contemplative practice with Buddhist roots, mindfulness is "the awareness that arises from paying attention, on purpose, in the present-moment, non-judgmentally." Practicing mindfulness can be an effective adjunct in treating psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and addiction. But have we gone too far with mindfulness? Recent books on the topic reveal a troubling corruption of mindfulness practice for commercial gain, with self-help celebrities hawking mindfulness as the next "miracle drug." Furthermore, common misunderstanding of what mindfulness really is seems to be fueled by a widespread cultural trend toward narcissism, egocentricity, and self-absorption. Thomas Joiner's Mindlessness chronicles the promising rise of mindfulness and its perhaps inevitable degradation. Giving mindfulness its full due, both as a useful philosophical vantage point and as a means to address various life challenges, Joiner mercilessly charts how narcissism has intertwined with and co-opted the practice to create a Frankenstein's monster of cultural solipsism and self-importance. He examines the dispiriting consequences for many sectors of society (e.g., mental health, education, politics) and ponders ways to mitigate, if not undo, them. Mining a rich body of research, Joiner also makes use of material from popular culture, literature, social media, and personal experience in order to expose the misuse of mindfulness and to consider how we as a society can back away from the brink, salvaging a potentially valuable technique for improving mental and physical wellbeing. "-- "How Mindfulness Lost Its Mind chronicles the promising rise of mindfulness and its troubling corruption. Joiner gives mindfulness its full due, both as an interesting and useful philosophical vantage point in itself, and as an empirically supported means to address various life challenges. He then charts contemporary societal trends towards individual narcissism that have intertwined with and co-opted the mindfulness movement. The book examines the dispiriting consequences for many sectors of society, ponders ways to mitigate if not undo them, and considers what if anything can be salvaged from the original, useful concept"--

Qui sont les pervers narcissiques ? Comment les reconnaître et déjouer leurs manipulations ? Comment se délivrer de leur emprise ? Depuis que l'expression existe, il semble que les « pervers narcissiques » soient de plus en plus nombreux, au sein du couple, dans les familles, au travail… Les domaines les plus variés s'intéressent à eux : l'éducation, le management, le marketing, mais également la justice ou la surveillance des sectes et des groupuscules extrémistes. Plusieurs décennies après l'invention du concept par Paul-Claude Racamier, Alberto Eiguer, l'un de ceux qui ont contribué à le populariser, jette un regard rétrospectif sur son évolution, en revient à ses fondements cliniques et psychopathologiques, et en questionne la viabilité et l'efficacité. Il montre combien il est opérant dans des situations jusqu'alors peu identifiées, et met à jour le champ de tous les troubles de la personnalité narcissique.

This book brings together the work of scholars and writer-practitioners of psychoanalysis to consider the legacy of two of Sigmund Freud's most important metapsychological papers: 'On Narcissism: An Introduction' (1914) and 'Mourning and Melancholia' (1917 [1915]).  These twin papers, conceived in the context of unprecedented social and political turmoil, mark a point in Freud’s metapsychological project wherein the themes of loss and of psychic violence were becoming incontrovertible facts in the story of subject formation. Taking as their concern the difficulty of setting apart the ‘inner’ and the ‘outer’ worlds, as well as the difficulty of preserving an image of the coherently boundaried subject, the psychoanalytic frameworks of narcissism and melancholia provide the background coordinates for the volume’s contributors to analyse contemporary subjectivities in new psychosocial contexts. The psychoanalytic frameworks of narcissism and melancholia provide the background for contributors to analyse contemporary subjectivities in new psychosocial contexts, including community configured along the intersections of race, class, gender, sexuality and generation. This collection will be of great interest to all scholars and practitioners of psychoanalysis and the psychotherapies, social and cultural theory, gender and sexuality studies, politics, and psychosocial studies.
