Brain and the ‘good news’, anorexia and finance & more from Sasha Rolde

Dear Colleagues,

As usual, a few posts among many others this week on the international psychoanalysis website have strongly captured my interest. I list them below only as guideline to the full fare:

1) If Hungary has accepted it as a sure winner with its public, then ***In Treatment*** is not just good *** it must have a universal message that even the Hungarians can’t resists. Who would have thought!

2) An article about Dr. B. Spock *** the famous baby doctor, is extremely timely and brings our ( and more to the point the young parents***) attention again to the importance of emotional development of children and the maternal instinct.

3) Ever wonder how a film is cast? You must read David Cronenberg: ‘Cinema is the human face’ to find out the about the skill and also about Freud, the man. I learn something new every day.

4) Did you know that 80% of people were optimists? Please read the research on brain and negative thoughts. ***A study, published in Nature Neuroscience, suggests the brain is very good at processing good news about the future.

However, in some people, anything negative is practically ignored – with them retaining a positive world view.
