Hardback. Etat : Good. The thesis of The Development of Logic in Adulthood is expressed in the author's phrase logic of wisdom. This quality, Jan Sinnott argues, is the result of a maturing process in an individual's thinking, the refinement of decision making and interaction with others that develops over a lifetime. Adults develop complex thinking - or postformal thought, to use the author's more technical term - out of a strong desire for unity and stability, and in recognition of the shortness of life. Sinnott maintains that the adult person can proactively cultivate the process of refining her or his thinking over time. She shows how this means of systematically combating alienation is applicable to many facets of a person's life: to demanding family and couple relationships; to social roles, which are made more flexible and adaptable; to workplace environments in which individuals use work to grow personally, and where concomitant living helps to resolve interpersonal conflicts; and to the fast-growing field of adult education, where active learning flourishes under teachers who employ the logic of wisdom. The author describes various techniques derived from her experimental studies carried out over a period of more than 20 years and explores the practical application of these methods in such areas as communication and conflict resolution, decision making, cross-cultural interaction, conscious spiritual development, ecology, and educational reform.…

Paperback or Softback. Etat : New. Reinventing the University: A Radical Proposal for a Problem-Focused University. Book.

Paperback. Etat : New. This book is for professors, administrators, government officials, and every part of global society that has a stake in higher education or the problems faced by humanity today. It is also for students, their families, and communities who want a different performance from institutions of higher education. Its purpose is to start, stimulate, and encourage a dialogue about higher education and the way it is experienced today. We have attempted to do more than give some absolute model, wanting to provide mechanisms for ongoing dialogue-based transformation. The dialogue begins with the offering of a model of the way higher education could be reinvented. This model is built on certain assumptions about learning, work, and the environment and purpose of higher education. Within these parameters, it is acknowledged that this model is only one out of a possible hundred different ways to get to the same place.…

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Text in English. 294 pp. Everyday Memory and Aging is a comprehensive handbook that touches virtually every aspect of current everyday memory research and methodology as they relate to aging, with more pronounced highlights on issues related to individual differences and the effects of context famillarity. Experimental and clinical psychology have witnessed a rapid increase in the development of new memory-testing procedures and assessments; rich evidence has been gleaned in a great number of studies, and this book reflects the diversity of research in everyday memory. However, distinctive methodologies and divergent approaches can underscore the importance of issues and theories that dovetail, as this book demonstrates. Unlike the legendary engineer who studied the aerodynamic characteristics of insects and concluded that bumblebees (because of their heavy body and small wings) could not fly. everyday memory researchers use theory and empirical data to understand why older adults "fly" in everyday settings, in spite of their well-known limitations. By presenting in a highly organized way vast amounts of theoretical and empirical knowledge about everyday memory and aging, this book widens the scope of investigation and strengthens our knowledge about the field significantly.…
