Book excerpt: Receiving a call from the old family attorney, Max quickly obliges his request and jumps on a plane back home. But will this trip be different? Having struggled through a difficult ordeal in his family as a child, Max is hopeful but not expectant of good news. Will the ordeal finally be over? His flight is only the beginning. Max remembers what brought him to this moment. His father, Jamie Cooper, a devoted dad and faithful employee, had been accused of stealing $30,000 from the bank he worked for, charged and arrested in a moment. In the ensuing months, Jamie hired a defense team and fought to clear his name both in a civil trial and a criminal trial. But would the combined strength of the town's powerful chief of police, a man who'd held a grudge against the Cooper family for years, and the bank owner's son, Alden Stillwell, prove to be more than Jamie could fend off? Follow the quick-paced trials and their dramatic effects in Carroll Multz's Justice Denied: A Novel.

Book excerpt: So when Tammy was a young girl, she always loved animals, and in her free time, she drew things. She wasn't really good at painting and drawing, but she always managed to draw something when she was upset. One time she drew herself wearing a medal in some competition with a racket in her hand, and instead of a real audience, she drew all kinds of animals that were clapping for her victory. Tammy showed that drawing to her dad and all he said was that girls look better when they wear dresses and make delicious food. That didn't make Tammy from achieving her passion, except it just made her reconsider her choices every once in a while. "On the count, if 3, we will run." Said Dan. He waited for the pendulum to start moving again. At the count of three, both of them ran as fast as they could. As they ran, the pace of the pendulum also got faster with every move, but they closed their eyes and kept on running. They both passed the pendulums and got out of the hall. "We almost died, Dan." Said Tammy. The clock hall ended up in an open field. "How far are we from the treasure?" asked Tammy. "We are almost there we need to pass the rolling stones now," Dan said. There was a huge sound of a thud heard, and they were surrounded by grey stones. It seemed like they were almost surrounded by another wall. "Why are you guys here?" one of the stones asked them. "We are here to find the hidden treasure." Said Dan. Tammy pinched Dan's arms. The stones increased up to twice. "I meant we are here to give you guys treats." Said Dan instantly. "TREATS!" all the stones said.

Download or read book Max Wertheimer and Gestalt Theory written by D. Brett King and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ideas of Max Wertheimer (1880-1943), a founder of Gestalt theory, are discussed in almost all general books on the history of psychology, and in most introductory textbooks on psychology. This intellectual biography of Wertheimer is the first book-length treatment of a scholar whose ideas are recognized as of central importance to fields as varied as social psychology, cognitive neuroscience, problem solving, art, and visual neuroscience. King and Wertheimer trace the origins of Gestalt thought, demonstrating its continuing importance in fifteen chapters and several supplements to these chapters. They begin by reviewing Wertheimer's ancestry, family, and childhood in central Europe, and his formal education. They elaborate on his activities during the period in which he developed the ideas that were later to become central to Gestalt psychology, documenting the formal emergence of this school of thought and tracing its development during World War I. The maturation of the Gestalt school at the University of Berlin during 1922-29 is discussed in detail. Wertheimer's everyday life in America during his last decade is well documented, based in part on his son's recollections. The early reception of Gestalt theory in the United States is examined, with extensive references to articles in professional journals and periodicals. Wertheimer's relationships and interaction with three prominent psychologists of the time, Edwin Boring, Clark Hull, and Alexander Luria, are discussed, based on previosly unpublished correspondence. The final chapters discuss Wertheimer's essays on democracy, freedom, ethics, and truth, detail personal challenges Wertheimer faced during his last years. His major work, published after his death, is Productive Thinking. Its reception is examined, and a concluding chapter considers recent responses to Max Wertheimer and Gestalt theory. This intellectual biography will be of interest to psychologists and readers interested in science, modern European history, and the Holocaust. D. Brett King is senior instructor of psychology, Department of Psychology, University of Colorado at Boulder. Michael Wertheimer is Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of Colorado at Boulder.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HIDDEN IN XANADU is the story of suspended rules, the outward serenity and inner chaos of two ordinary people who are thrust into the world of crime witnesses and how they devise an imaginative way to live through it. Colleagues, GRACE DANVERS and MAX JOSEFS, witness a horrible crime and are whisked into protective custody by the FBI to contain the contamination of their testimony before trial. So abruptly has their world changed that Max and Grace feel as if they are in another reality; the constant companionship of the agents seems more like an invasion of privacy than protection; their custody more like captivity. To gain some control over their lives and blot out the ever-present, gruesome crime, they devise a game with their own rules and title the rules file Xanadu. Max and Grace have made several documentaries together and are attracted to each other. In their fifties, both are embarrassed about making love with each other, know it will change their friendship irrevocably. They devise a game to become other couples in fiction and history to get past this sticking point. Neither is aware the agents listen to every word and action. Grace, close to the breaking point, discovers the agents' listening, their complete violation. Max falls back on their game to save her and Grace finds the strength to rise above the betrayal. Their captivity and the game not only change their lives but the lives of the agents and enable Grace to testify at trial.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Works of Max Beerbohm is a collection of satirical essays by Max Beerbohm. It was published in 1896 at The Bodley Head, his publisher John Lane contributing a detailed bibliography of the works of the author, then aged 24. Before their publication as a book, the essays had appeared in prominent literary periodicals such as The Yellow Book and The Savoy. Most of the essays were written while he was a student at Oxford, although he had left Merton College in 1894. By then he was already known as a caricaturist, parodist and essayist and well acquainted with the writers and artists connected with The Bodley Head, notably Aubrey Beardsley and Oscar Wilde. The essays can perhaps be best described as both elaborate parody and vicious satire. Beerbohm’s intimate knowledge of the social circles of the time and his penchant for pointed descriptions of character are always on display, dismantling the purported greatness that surrounds him. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
