Caparazones De Yolanda Arroyo Pizarro


*Libro Importado*

EJEMPLAR DEDICADO Y FIRMADO POR LA AUTORA



Nessa acaba de dar a luz y el evento dispara en su psiquis una serie de cavilaciones que le hacen cuestionar todas sus decisiones. Es una reportera de nacionalidad puertorriqueña que realiza trabajos freelance para varios medios de prensa escrita. Se dedica a cubrir asignaciones de terrorismo ecológico en varios lugares del mundo: Australia, Canadá y Costa Rica. La naturaleza de sus investigaciones la llevan, en ocasiones, a estar en peligro dada la complejidad de las manifestaciones en contra del cambio climático, las protestas por el mal manejo de los animales en experimentaciones, el peligro de extinción de ciertas especies de tortugas en El Caribe. Nessa se ha enamorado de una fotógrafa, Alexia, que es adicta al feng-shui y que posee dotes de percepción extrasensorial. Ambas deciden compartir una relación adúltera que las colocará en el vértice de una marejada de situaciones extremas.


«Caparazones de Yolanda Arroyo Pizarro es una novela coyuntural. En un momento en que las libertades civiles están en el filo de la navaja y en donde el discurso intolerante busca escurrirse con más fuerza en la conciencia colectiva, esta obra ejerce presión hacia un cambio literario.»

Nelson E. Vera Santiago

LIBRO NUEVO
418 PAGINAS
Las mujeres más inolvidables de la edad dorada de Hollywood poblaban un mundo oculto de emocionantes secretos. En Greta & Marlene, Diana McLellan revela las complejas e íntimas conexiones que se ocultaban tras los personajes públicos de Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Tallulah Bankhead y las mujeres que las amaron. Correspondencia privada, archivos del FBI guardados durante mucho tiempo y una serie de documentos nunca publicados revelan una cadena de aventuras lesbianas que se movieron desde el mundo del teatro de Nueva York a través de las alturas de la sociedad chic hasta incrustarse en la estructura de poder del negocio del cine.
¿Por qué negaron Garbo y Dietrich que se conocían hasta el final? Greta & Marlene documenta la languidez con que comenzó su desgraciado amor. ¿Cómo salvó la adoradora de Garbo, Tallulah Bankhead, la carrera de Dietrich? Los archivos del FBI dejan bien claro lo que ayudó su intervención ante J. Edgar Hoover. ¿Cuándo se casó Marlene Dietrich por primera vez? No cuando lo dice su biografía oficial: se ocultó un primer matrimonio con un comunista sexy y tenebroso; Greta & Marlene demuestra cómo y por qué.
Desde el atractivo desinhibido de la amante de las estrellas, Mercedes de Acosta, hasta el papel de Salka Viertel torpedeando la carrera de su amante Garbo; desde el mundo sáfico de la estrella del cine mudo Alla Nazimova hasta las novias lesbianas de Rodolfo Valentino, Greta & Marlene recorre un jugoso mundo de películas, política, sexualidad, psicología y estrellas.

DETALLE: EL EJEMPLAR PRESENTA ALGUNOS SUBRAYADOS EN LAPIZ





It is widely recognized that current HIV intervention models are falling short of their goals. What are the alternatives?

To answer this question, New International Directions in HIV Prevention for Gay and Bisexual Men presents a collection of articles from European and American authors that rival dominant paradigms of HIV prevention. Researchers, practitioners, and community organizations will be challenged to examine current assumptions and to consider neglected aspects of risk behavior such as love, trust, and the dynamics of sexual intimacy. New International Directions in HIV Prevention for Gay and Bisexual Men explores models and theories that will help you develop more effective HIV prevention programs to better serve patients and clients.

New International Directions in HIV Prevention for Gay and Bisexual Men offers you fresh perspectives on prevention work by examining risk behaviors in the interactional, communal, and social contexts in which they are practiced. You will receive alternative explanations and reasons for HIV risk that go beyond current approaches and that introduce possibilities for new intervention strategies. Written by experts in the field, the chapters in New International Directions in HIV Prevention for Gay and Bisexual Men will give you insight into new ideas and developments, including:

placing a greater emphasis on improving successful risk management strategies as opposed to quantifying risk factors
examining the meaning and context of sexual acts which occur in casual encounters or steady partnerships and incorporating their relevancy into prevention work
considering the effects that cultural context and socially constructed meanings have on prevention work and incorporating individuals’values and feelings into prevention strategies
focusing on more realistic goals of harm reduction that take sexual decision making into consideration as opposed to expecting abstinence
relating the various aspects of sexual encounters--physical attraction, intimacy, reciprocity, and power--to reasons why men choose not to use condoms

Examining how gay men can underestimate the risk of HIV in order to meet needs of intimacy, New International Directions in HIV Prevention for Gay and Bisexual Men will help you understand the symbolic dimension of sexual contact. The normal, everyday reasons for having sex without a condom are explored, questioning models which often characterize unprotected sex as being the result of low self-esteem, substance abuse, or some other psychological vulnerability.

Presenting data from both qualitative and quantitative research conducted at group and individual levels, this book reveals the complexity of risk behavior, the richness of sexual experience, and the importance of respecting the unique context in which gay men live their sexual lives. New International Directions in HIV Prevention for Gay and Bisexual Men will help you understand this point of view, enabling you to provide patients and clients with more effective HIV prevention and risk management services.

Beacon Press - Boston - 1992

The hatred of lesbians, gay males, and bisexuals remains an "acceptable" prejudice in our society despite the widespread damage it causes in all our lives. Inviting sexual minorities and heterosexual men and women to become allies in the fight against homophobia, the contributors to this anthology explore how homophobia colludes with sexism by forcing people into rigid gender roles; how homophobia causes unnecessary pain and alienation in family relationships; how it works against health-care policy and arts administration that would benefit all members of society; and how homophobia leaves the promise of religious institutions unfulfilled. In both personal and analytical essays, the contributors show how the fight to end homophobia is everyone's fight if we are to bring about a less oppressive and more productive society. They offer concrete suggestions for transforming attitudes, behaviors, and institutions.

Understanding The Male Hustler By Sam Steward


Understanding The Male Hustler By Sam Steward

EN VENTA AQUI

This book is a serious study of male hustlers using experiential dialogue to introduce the reader to real-life concepts and experiences that otherwise could not be effectively conveyed. An intriguing attempt to get into the mind and personality of the male hustler through a largely imagined series of dialogues between a well-known fictional hustler and his so-called amanuensis, Samuel Steward, this unique book covers all aspects of the hustler’s motivations, activities, life style, adjustments, advantages, and disadvantages. It accomplishes this dispassionately, without prejudgment, moral censure, approbation, or more than cursory involvement.

Therapists and counselors in all fields of sexual functioning will find here some understanding of the causes and impulses (beyond the popular “broken home syndrome”) that lead young males into prostitution. It signals some of the signposts to danger and serious threats to health that accompany the profession of prostitution and also explains to counselors some of the activities and practices of the male prostitute, enabling them to have a better understanding of the fascination and peril of the hustler’s life. The brevity of success in such a calling is also considered, with some consideration for the necessity of long-range planning for the hustler’s future.

Important contents:
interview of a well-known hustler
brief look at early male prostitution--Greek, Roman, Burton’s theory
the peacock period and youth as a prerequisite for hustling
lures of the profession--money, power, other motivations
paths and mechanisms leading to hustling
characteristics of different types of hustlers
types of clients patronizing hustlers
literary illuminations
the modus operandi of the male hustler
extraordinary dangers confronting the male hustler today
the attractiveness of the “seeing-through” of a hustler to past clients
quo vadis for the hustler after youth passes Readers will be amazed by the daily hazards and drawbacks as well fascinated by the curiosities and rewards of the hustler’s profession. Especially of interest to therapists and counselors, Understanding the Male Hustler is also valuable for sociologists, anthropologists, medical specialists, psychiatrists, psychologists.

Gender Rock Exploding The Myths Of Male And Female By Phyllis Burke
Anchor Book - 1996

At a time when men are staying home to parent and women are leaving to practice law and politics, America is confused and anxious about what differences truly exist between the sexes. In a world of changing roles for both sexes, how are "masculine" and "feminine" defined? If women and men are created equal, how then do gender differences emerge?

Combining investigative journalism with a survey of current scientific research, Phyllis Burke pushes our society's hottest button, gender anxiety. Contrary to gender gurus such as John Gray, who have depended upon exploiting the differences between men and women, Burke debunks the myth that men and women are from different planets. She casts a disbelieving eye on the shockingly popular diagnosis of Gender Identity Disorder, in which children as young as three years old undergo therapy for not adhering to accepted notions of "girl" and "boy" behavior, and she encourages a shift towards a "gender independent" culture, in which individuals adopt the best traits of both sexes.

Male Lust Pleasure Power And Transformation - Editors: Kerwin Kay, Jill Nagle, Baruch Gould

 


Male Lust Pleasure Power And Transformation Kay Nagle Gould

Men from a variety of sexual orientations and ethnic backgrounds overturn myths about male sexuality and desire!

Male sexuality comes of age in this provocative collection of personal essays and poetry. Male Lust's nearly 60 contributors explore emotional, social, and political aspects of sex and desire from a diversity of backgrounds, perspectives, and sexual orientations. Answering the long-standing challenge for men to finally theorize the complexity of their own sexual desires, Male Lust (a 2001 Lambda Gay Studies Literary Award Finalist) delves into topics such as commercial sex, sadomasochism, feminism, and white supremacy without lapsing into reactionary, knee-jerk or misogynist stances. This book offers a positive sexual vision that moves far beyond the narrow messages offered in mainstream media.

Male Lust reveals thoughtful, detailed realities of gay, straight, bisexual, transgender, and same-gender-loving men's personal experiences with sex that lurk behind the stereotypes. Among the many topics that the essays, stories, and poems herein chronicle are:
various facets of men's and women's experience with commercial sex, both as consumers and providers
social and hormonal phenomena involved in transitioning from female to male
handling the impact of white supremacy on male lust as a man of color
the transformational possibilities of S/M
women's responses to the lusts of the men in their lives
coming of age with a “deviant” gender or sexual orientation
healing from rape and other forms of sexual abuse
coming to terms with loving and desiring women within a misogynist culture
lust and desire within a disabled body

Together, the contributors break the noisy silence surrounding male lust, challenge the dominant images of men as unemotional sexual predators, and expose the live, beating hearts, minds, and souls of real men loving, healing, and revealing themselves, each other, and the women in their lives. Male Lust heralds the next generation of thinking men--a must-read for anyone seeking cutting-edge ideas on sexuality and desire.



Hitchcock's Bi-textuality Lacan Feminisms And Queer Theory BY ROBERT SAMUELS


Hitchcock's Bi-textuality Lacan Feminisms And Queer Theory

BY  ROBERT SAMUELS 

EN VENTA AQUI

This book combines three elements: an articulation of Lacan's theory of ethics; a discussion of recent theories of feminine subjectivity and queer textuality; and close readings of Hitchcock's films. Hitchcock's Bi-Textuality argues that just as Freud posited a fundamental ground of bisexuality for every subject, we can affirm a form of universal "bi-textuality" that is repressed through different modes of representation, yet returns in unconscious aspects of textuality (dreams, word play, jokes, and symbolism). In order to illustrate this notion of bi-textuality, this work discusses how Hitchcock's films are extremely heterogeneous and present multiple forms of sexual identification and desire, although they have most often been read through the reductive lens of male heterosexuality.
Throughout this book, the work of Julia Kristeva, Kaja Silverman, Judith Butler, Luce Irigaray, and Slavoj Zizek is examined. One of the central concerns is the way that different psychoanalytic and feminist theories tend to equate the Real and the unconscious with the feminine. This feminization of the Real tends to block the awareness of the bisexual nature of the unconscious. In order to return to Freud's fundamental theory of polyvalent sexuality, recent notions of queer sexuality and textuality are explored. This book extends psychoanalytic theory by incorporating new feminist and queer conceptions of sexuality and representation.

 



The Therapist's Notebook for Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Clients by Joy S. Whitman and Cynthia J. Boyd


1st Edition
The Therapist's Notebook for Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Clients
Homework, Handouts, and Activities for Use in Psychotherapy
By Joy S. Whitman, Cynthia J. Boyd
Copyright Year 2003


Book Description
Most therapy is set up in a heterosexist context. Explore the issues facing your gay, lesbian, and bisexual clients--and how to deal with them!

The Therapist's Notebook for Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Clients offers therapists treating lesbian, gay, and bisexual clients innovative, practical interventions plus homework and hands-on activities tailored to these populations. Use the notebook to explore the issues surrounding coming out, homophobia in the workplace, spirituality, identity formation, and issues that require a non-heterosexist approach, such as domestic violence and relationship concerns. Grounded in current theory, each chapter explains the rationale for the activity it proposes, includes contraindications, and provides a list of helpful resources for therapists and clients.

Here are just a few of the issues this extraordinary book explores in its four thoughtfully planned sections:

Section I: Homework, Handouts, and Activities for Coming Out and Managing Homophobia and Heterosexism addresses:

conflicts in self-perceptions
obstacles to the growth of a healthy GLB identity
dealing with the trauma and anxiety that result from discrimination
using semi-hypnotic visualization to treat internalized homophobia
helping bisexuals decide whether to come out or to “pass”
coping with internalized homophobic messages
dealing with heterosexism in the workplace or at school

Section II: Homework, Handouts, and Activities for Relationship Issues will help you and your clients understand and work on issues involving:
choosing the right partner
intimacy and gender roles
financial stability
assimilation, queer pride, and everything in between
how ethnicity and coupling impact sexual identity
negotiating a healthy open relationship
sexual concerns, sexual dysfunction, and pleasuring
sexual role values for bisexual and lesbian women

Section III: Homework, Handouts, and Activities for Gender, Ethnic, and Sexual Identity Issues addresses “who am I” issues:
sexual orientation and gender identity
the intersection of sexual and ethnic identity
oppression on multiple fronts
gender exploration for lesbians

Section IV: Homework, Handouts, and Activities for Specific Issues tackles concepts including:
enhancing resilience through spirituality
reconciling with religion
spiritual wellness and the spiritual autobiography
body image disturbances
unwanted sexual behavior
creating a safety plan in case of same-sex domestic violence
alienation and finding a caring community
medication adherence for HIV+ clients
the difficulties faced by coupled lesbians with children
family care planning
addiction and recovery
healing from the wounds of homophobia
relationships with ex-partners
managing workplace stress

If you're new to treating lesbian, gay, and bisexual clients you’ll find rich material, based in current literature, to guide your work. If you've already worked extensively with LGBT clients, the activities and fresh, innovative strategies in The Therapist's Notebook for Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Clients will expand and invigorate your skills.

Transvestites and Transsexuals Toward a Theory of Cross-Gender Behavior by Richard F. Docter



Transvestites and Transsexuals

Toward a Theory of Cross-Gender Behavior

Authors: Docter, Richard

Plenum - 1990

EN VENTA AQUI

The objective of this book is to propose a theory of transvestism and secondary transsexualism, and to provide information concerning these behaviors. My view of these topics is much like that of Benjamin (1966) and nearly all other gender researchers. It holds that a syndrome of similar behaviors can be identified, ranging from fetishism through transvestism, transgenderism, and secondary transsexualism. But de scription is one thing and explanation of causes is another. I agree with other gender researchers (e. g. , Green & Money, 1969; Stoller, 1985c) who have concluded that the causes of transvestism and transsexualism re main largely unknown. But the fact that we cannot fully explain the origins of transvestism or secondary transsexualism does not mean that a comprehensive theory is impossible. Indeed, excellent theoretical statements have been proposed concerning each of these topics (Ban croft, 1972; Buckner, 1970; Buhrich & McConaghy, 1977a; Money & Ehrhardt, 1972; Ovesey & Person, 1973, 1976; Person & Ovesey, 1974a,b; Stoller, 1968a, 1974, 1985c). It is with considerable respect, therefore, that we acknowledge both the strong shoulders on which we stand, and also the more practical fact that we have drawn heavily upon the many contributions of these researchers. The approach I have adopted has the same scientific difficulties that confronted all of these previous workers.

The Psychic Life of Power: Theories in Subjection 1st Edition
Stanford University Press - 1997


As a form of power, subjection is paradoxical. To be dominated by a power external to oneself is a familiar and agonizing form power takes. To find, however, that what "one" is, one's very formation as a subject, is dependent upon that very power is quite another. If, following Foucault, we understand power as forming the subject as well, it provides the very condition of its existence and the trajectory of its desire. Power is not simply what we depend on for our existence but that which forms reflexivity as well. Drawing upon Hegel, Nietzsche, Freud, Foucault, and Althusser, this challenging and lucid work offers a theory of subject formation that illuminates as ambivalent the psychic effects of social power.

If we take Hegel and Nietzsche seriously, then the "inner life" of consciousness and, indeed, of conscience, not only is fabricated by power, but becomes one of the ways in which power is anchored in subjectivity. The author considers the way in which psychic life is generated by the social operation of power, and how that social operation of power is concealed and fortified by the psyche that it produces. Power is no longer understood to be "internalized" by an existing subject, but the subject is spawned as an ambivalent effect of power, one that is staged through the operation of conscience.

To claim that power fabricates the psyche is also to claim that there is a fictional and fabricated quality to the psyche. The figure of a psyche that "turns against itself" is crucial to this study, and offers an alternative to describing power as "internalized." Although most readers of Foucault eschew psychoanalytic theory, and most thinkers of the psyche eschew Foucault, the author seeks to theorize this ambivalent relation between the social and the psychic as one of the most dynamic and difficult effects of power.

Being homosexual; gay men and their development
Isay, Richard A.

DETALLE: EL EJEMPLAR PRESENTA ALGUNOS SUBRAYADOS EN LAPIZ

Abstract
Over the course of twenty years of working with gay men in analysis and therapy, Richard Isay has become convinced that homosexuality is not a mental illness; it is not deviant behavior, as the psychoanalytic establishment and our society continue to believe.
Though trained in traditional psychoanalytic theory, Richard Isay has come to a radically different way of working with gay men. He has determined that there is a natural developmental path that homosexuals follow which, as with heterosexuals, is fraught with predictable obstacles and crises. Clearing away the tangle of myths about homosexual behavior and its origins, Dr. Isay lays out that path. He also explores the nature of impediments to sustained and loving gay relationships, analyzing two of the most crippling: parental rejection and the internalization of Western society's extreme homophobia. Until there is social and legal change to support the expression of love and commitment between homosexuals, early psychological intervention may help homosexual children to build healthy self-esteem in the face of social stigmatization. Recently AIDS has aggravated that stigmatization, and "Being Homosexual" examines the profound impact it has had on gay men's development.
For therapists, this is a book that offers concrete guidance in working with homosexual men more effectively and with greater understanding. For gay men themselves, this is a clear and empathic account of their development and the conflicts and barriers they face. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
