November 2010Das Atelier im Grünen. Henri Matisse - Die Jahre in Issy
by Peter Kropmanns
1909 hatte Henri Matisse den Trubel in Paris satt und zog nach Issy-les-Moulineaux – gerade mal sechs Kilometer entfernt von der Hauptstadt. Dem rechteckigen, zweigeschossigen Anwesen, das zum neuen Zentrum seines Lebens werden sollte, schloß sich ein kleiner Park an, in dem Matisse sein „Atelier im Grünen“ einrichtete. In Issy empfing er seine Künstlerfreunde und Galeristen, hier entstanden weltberühmte Werke wie „Der Tanz“ oder „Das rote Atelier“. Der Kunsthistoriker Peter Kropmanns erzählt mit profundem Detailwissen von dem alles verändernden Ortswechsel des Malers; der Band enthält zusätzlich historische Fotografien aus Issy und Reproduktionen zahlreicher Matisse-Werke aus dieser Zeit: Ein wunderbares Geschenk für Kunst- und Gartenfreunde!

Fearless Parenting Makes Confident Kids
by Shulamit Blank & Orly Fuchs-Shabtai
Fearless Parenting is about parental authority in modern timesand its pivotal role in raising self-reliant, compassionate, and ethical children, and in preventing behavioral and even severe psychiatric disorders. The last generation witnessed a backlash against disciplining children. We as parents are told to engage in negotiation with our kids about their behavior. We are afraid to be tough with them in case they won't love us or worse—break down. As a result, families today face severe behavior problems at earlier ages, and parents throw up their hands in resignation. The main theme and objective of this book is to prove that setting and enforcing reasonable and appropriate boundaries, combined with learning and education, could save parents' relationships with their kids and literally save children’s lives. The book is unique in that it presents in a direct, simple, and yet profound way, real case studies and situations commonly encountered, along with severe cases of drug abuse, delinquencies, and mental disturbances. All cases are shown to respond very well to authority and boundaries adjusted to the specific situation and behavior. The book contains numerous references to professional material for the more advanced reader and derives inspiration from ancient philosophers and religious thinkers. Shulamit Blank, M.D, is a pediatrician and psychiatrist, specializing in child and adolescent behavioral disturbances. Dr. Blank is the founder and, since 1993, CEO of a community-based educational and treatment facility in Israel for children and adolescents with severe psychiatric and behavioral disorders, in which she is successfully implementing her methods, preventing psychiatric hospitalization and incarceration, and minimizing the use of psychiatric drugs through teaching and education adjusted to the child's specific problems, such as ADHD, learning disabilities, etc. Due to her breakthrough approach, Dr. Blank is well-recognized and fully involved in the professional community worldwide. Dr. Blank has three children and seven grandchildren and resides with her spouse near Tel Aviv. Orly Fuchs-Shabtai is a clinical psychologist. In 2006 she established a national program for the prevention of child violence. There are about thirty-five counselors from the therapeutic field in the program, which provides counseling to hundreds of families each year and to teachers of preschool through elementary school. Fuchs-Shabtai is the mother of three grown-up children and lives in Tel Aviv. The authors strive to follow the ancient wisdom of the biblical aphorism: "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6). An English-Language eBook was published in fall 2014 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons, Inc., CA.

Fearless Parenting
by Shulamit Blank & Orli Fuchs-Shabtai
"Fearless Parenting" porte sur l'autorité parentale dans les temps modernes et sur son rôle essentiel dans l'éducation d’enfants autonomes, compatissants et vertueux et la prévention des troubles du comportement et, parfois, de graves troubles psychiatriques.La dernière génération a connu un contrecoup dans la discipline des enfants. Or, en tant que parents, nous devons discuter avec nos enfants de leur comportement. Nous évitons d'être durs avec eux de peur qu'ils nous privent de leur amour ou pire - qu'ils s'effondrent. Par conséquent, les familles d'aujourd'hui font face à de graves troubles du comportement à un âge plus précoce et les parents baissent les bras en signe d’abandon. Le thème principal et l'objectif de ce livre consistent à prouver que la création et l'application de limites raisonnables et appropriées, liées à l'instruction et à l'éducation, pourraient remédier aux relations parents/enfants et, à proprement parler, sauver la vie des enfants.Ce livre est unique dans la mesure où il présente de façon directe, simple et cependant profonde des études de cas réels et des situations fréquemment rencontrées, ainsi que des cas graves de toxicomanie, de délinquance et de troubles psychiques. Le traitement de tous ces cas présente une réaction positive à l'autorité et aux limites adaptées à la situation et au comportement spécifiques. Cet ouvrage contient de nombreuses références à la vie professionnelle pour le lecteur confirmé et s'inspire d'anciens philosophes et penseurs religieux.À propos des auteursShulamit Blank, docteure en médecine, est pédiatre et psychiatre spécialisée dans les troubles du comportement des enfants et des adolescents.En Israël, le Dr Blank est fondatrice et, depuis 1993, directrice générale d'un centre communautaire d’enseignement et de traitement des enfants et adolescents atteints de graves troubles psychiatriques et du comportement. C’est dans ce centre qu’elle parvient à appliquer ses méthodes en limitant l'hospitalisation et l'incarcération psychiatriques et en minimisant l'utilisation de médicaments psychiatriques grâce à une éducation et un enseignement adaptés aux problèmes spécifiques de l'enfant, que ce soient le TDAH, les troubles d'étude, etc.Orli Fuchs-Shabtai, est psychologue clinicienne. Elle a travaillé comme psychothérapeute pour adultes et dirige actuellement un programme national de prévention de la violence infantile.Les auteurs s'efforcent de suivre la sagesse antique de l'aphorisme biblique : « Instruis l'enfant selon la voie qu'il doit suivre; Et quand il sera vieux, il ne s'en détournera pas » (Proverbes 22:6).
