From Grunts to Swipes: Unlocking the Ancient Instincts Behind Modern Love and Marriage So, there I was, standing in the kitchen after yet another conversation with my wife and how she needed another pair of shoes. Does she need six pairs of nearly identical shoes (but they're all for different "activities," apparently), when I had an epiphany. It wasn’t just about shoes. It wasn’t just about purses. It was about... mammoth meat (Hunters and gathers). Yeah, that’s right. We’re all still cavemen and cavewomen deep down, and the things driving us today are eerily similar to what kept ...

Simply put, they control their emotions, and don’t let their emotions control them.

Throughout history, both military and commercial entities around the world have utilized these methods, and even since the formalization of psychological operations during WW2, our methods have improved greatly, but we are still only touching the "tip of the iceberg", so to speak, of what is truly possible.

Jung's primary concern in Flying Saucers is not with the reality or unreality of UFOs but with their psychic aspect. Rather than speculate about their possible nature and extraterrestrial origin as alleged spacecraft, he asks what it may signify that these phenomena, whether real or imagined, are seen in such numbers just at a time when humankind is menaced as never before in history. The UFOs represent, in Jung's phrase, "a modern myth."

Frantz Fanon's urgent, dynamic critique of the effects of racism on the psyche is a landmark study of the Black experience in a white world. Drawing on his own life and his work as a psychoanalyst to explore how colonialism's subjects internalize its prejudices, eventually emulating the 'white masks' of their oppressors, it established Fanon as a revolutionary anti-colonialist thinker.

Modern life is full of minor but acute dilemmas: we get stuck at a gathering with someone unusually boring and wonder how to move on without causing offence; in the course of introducing one friend to another, we realise that we have forgotten one of the party’s names; we run into an ex while on an early date with a new partner; we spill red wine across a host’s sofa...
