Oh, that’s such red-flag behaviour. My love language is physical touch but hers is words of affirmation. But I have an anxious attachment style, I need frequent validation. Sound familiar? If you’ve been on the internet, chances are you’ve definitely heard of flags, trauma bonds, and attachment styles. But what do they even mean? Relationship Coach Kasturi Mahanta explains the common troubles plaguing our relationships from a therapist’s perspective. Through fictionalised accounts of problems she has coached people through, she explains the hows and the whys behind people’s behaviours, especially in romantic relationships—whether it be coping mechanisms, anger, or the invisible emotional labour a partner performs. Armed with exercises for readers to participate in, these chapters help us not only identify certain patterns and behaviours—in our partners and ourselves—but also delve into why they might occur. It aims to equip readers with a better understanding of the root causes of problems so that we may build and ultimately stay in healthy, long-term relationships

Originally published as The New People, this classic volume examines the great changes in popular culture that unfolded in the 1960s with major steps toward political, racial, gender, and social empowerment. The popular culture of the time expressed a series of themes that have become, if not more significant, then certainly more visible in the 1990s. We are now entering the third generation of Americans who are living out the themes that are traced in this book. The author sees a depolarization, a neutering in content and key people in the popular arts. Some of these trends result from technological changes and others reflect what is happening in the psychosocial interior of the family as well as larger economic movements. Winick believes that in such wide-ranging features of our society as sports, furniture, and architecture, the expression of an epoch can be identified. Clothing conveys the imbalance and ambiguity that reflect larger social forces and that have been identified more recently by Jacques Lacan as so important in modern life. Desexualization in American Life is remarkably prescient and accurate in identifying key trends that affect us today and will continue to do so for the remainder of the decade.

This volume contains a selection of the papers presented at the 16th International Symposium at the University of Wisconsin/Milwaukee. Two central question were addressed: What is the nature of the categories that underlie the structure of human language? What is the nature of extralinguistic categories that are reflected in language? These questions are addressed from the perspective of a variety of disciplines, using many different methodologies and focusing on many different aspects of language including morphology, syntax, semantics, phonology and discourse. The volume is divided into 3 sections: prototype effects in language, categorization processes, and cross-linguistic categorization.
