In the process of realization of this book was taken into consideration and was consulted the "social" and "therapeutic" literature of humanistic orientation, with the two main directions - existential/positive and spiritual/cultural/humanitarian, or the one that describe them or refer to them. *** Essentially, the Humanistic-Existential/Positive orientations/theories represent the person and personality through traits like high level of personal and social autonomy, free will and high capacity/ability to self-determination, high level of personal development, high resilience, high capacity to control the emotions, high degree of awareness, self-knowledge, high self-esteem, high level of interpersonal development, adaptability, mature personality, activism and initiative, assertiveness, etc., while the socio-human (micro-)community is represented through features such as high autonomy, strong organizational culture, high socio-human functionality, high cohesion, unity, solidity, adaptability, resilience, resistance to crisis and challenges, good management, etc. The humanistic-existential/positive approaches promote core concepts as strong personality and strong community, personal development and community development. *** The Humanistic-Spiritual/Cultural/Humanitarian approaches/theories promote as core concepts spiritual/humane personality and humane/good community, spiritual/humane development of the person and humane/cultural development of the community. Representing the person and personality these approaches/theories highlight especially the inner-ontological psychological-spiritual and psychological-humane content/valence/dimensions, spirituality, virtue, humanity, the spiritual and humane self.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book is the version entirely in English of the bilingual book with the same title, published in November 2014, comprising, therefore, only its component in English language. The text represents a new stage in the author's project to contribute to the development of the humanistic social work theory and methodology, with special attention paid to the professional/ practitioner (social worker, caregiver, psychologist, etc.), to his psychological-spiritual and humane qualities and conducts in practice. * In the PART I is presented THE HUMANISTIC SOCIAL WORK PROJECT - the author's initiative, started in 2009, with the assumed aim to enhance the effective presence of the humanistic values, theories and practices in contemporary social work, a theoretical, axiological and methodological framework, a heuristic laboratory, a philosophical, scientific and professional forum wherein it can be set, what could be called, the theory, axiology and methodology of the Humanistic Social Work. * PART II, HUMANE AND SPIRITUAL QUALITIES OF THE PROFESSIONAL IN HUMANISTIC SOCIAL WORK is the basic body of the paper, and is composed predominantly of three chapters. The Chapter 1, Humanistic Social Work - The Third Way in Social Work Theory and Practice, is devoted to present, theoretically, the concept, doctrine and specific of humanistic social work, with emphasis on its main sources, values, theories, practices and methods, to circumscribe, philosophically and doctrinally, Humanistic Social Work as the third way, alongside Traditional/ Conventional Social Work and Radical/ Critical Social Work, in the contemporary social work practice and theory, with the assumed claim to imposing even as dominant in the future. The Chapter 2, Humane Personality and Soul - Personal-Psychological Sources of the Professional's Humane and Spiritual Qualities, shows what might be called, in the author's view, the personal-psychological sources of the professional's humane and spiritual qualities in humanistic social work practice, mainly the soul (as the main component of the psychological-ontological sphere of the humane personality), with the sub-spheres: affective (social) soul, spiritual soul (mystical, playful, aesthetic, moral, intellectual) and humane soul. It is not negligible nor the role of the axiological-moral/prosocial sphere, or of the motivational-energetical sphere. In the Chapter 3, Humane and Spiritual Qualities of The Professional in Humanistic Social Work Practice - effectively is reached the content of the topic proposed by the book's main title, approaching so the theme regarding the humane and spiritual qualities of the professional starting from the category of "humane personality of the professional", and insisting on the necessity to define it in connection with the spiritual-humanistic mode/ way of representation and approach of the customer. * The PART III of the book, IDEAS, FRAGMENTS, ELEMENTS OF SOME NEW TEXTS (in working) IN THE HUMANISTIC SOCIAL WORK PROJECT, includes three works, in preparation, to whom is working to appear, in the near future, within the project, respectively "Humanistic Social Work: The Third Way in Social Work Theory and Practice", "Humanistic Social Work Practice" and "Humanistic Social Work: Humane Personality and Humane Relationships - Basic Resources of Practice". * The paper ends with some CONCLUSIVE CONSIDERATIONS, where it is inferred the key conclusion that, operating into the sphere of human relations, the main purpose of the professional's activity, with his humane and spiritual qualities, is that to transform them in HUMANE relationships. To this end, his qualities represents essential personal-professional resources that can facilitate the change, that can humanize the troubled social relationships, the dehumanized, dysfunctional microcommunity, This new environment will impose, Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Some of the most significant fragments/ ideas of the book: "What we call, in the paper, the formation, the structure/ composition and the functioning of the person/ personality entail at least two perspectives. One it is the systemic-atomistic perspective, where the person is represented as a bio-psycho-social system, a unitary assembly of relatively autonomous formations. The other it is the spherical perspective, where the person is represented as a (multi-)spherical bio-psycho-social construction - here we refer mainly to two major (sub-)spheres of the personal (macro-)sphere, of the person as a whole, respectively the ontological-psychological sphere, and the social-personal sphere." (p. 118) *** "Into the ontogenetic process of forming of the person/ personality we distinguish two main sub-processes, steps, periods: the formation of the ontological-psychological sphere, and the formation of the social-personal sphere. The formation of the ontological-psychological sphere is done especially during childhood and adolescence, while of the social-personal sphere especially together with, and after the subject acquires social autonomy, profession, its own family, etc. The formation of the ontological-psychological sphere includes mainly the formation of the personal ontos, the soul, and the ego/self, while the formation of the social-personal sphere is conditioned mainly by the formation of the (social) conscience, character, and the (social) competences, skills, and habitudes" (p.109) *** "Humanistic persotherapy has, inter alia, this curative/ recuperative/ ameliorative task: to operate/ determine those compathetical, humane improvements at the level of inter-personal relationships, at the level of group, organization, family, couple, etc. that would lead to beneficial improvements in the internal ontological-psychological condition/ economy/ jouissance of the person" (p. 206) /// "Paradigma umanist-ontologica prioritizeaza rolul factorilor psihologic-spirituali si socio-umani in conlucrare cu cei culturali, morali, reprezentand procesul de formare a persoanei/ personalitatii ca pe o succesiva si concomitenta, transmergenta si emergenta construire fenomenologica, experientiala, de onto-formatiuni personale, persomi, sfere etc., si mai putin ca o simpla activare si abilitare a unor structuri preexistente, a unor paternuri universale putin variabile, recunoscand astfel autodeterminarea, autonomia ontogenetica, rolul subiectului, sau importanta unor constructii ontologic-psihologice ideografice precum ontosul personal, sufletul sau eul ontologic. Cruciale sunt astfel experientele subiective unice ale subiectului, trairile, emotiile sau eul ontologic si vointa, factorii psihologic-spirituali, dinamica interna autogenerativa, prin emergenta si superizare, generalizare/ abstractizare compatetica sufletesca/ spirituala." (p. 265) *** "Referitor la acceptiunea conceptului de suflet, pe care noi il utilizam in aceasta lucrare, precizam ca nu este identica, ca sens si sfera, nici cu cea consacrata in filosofia greaca si romana antica, de psihic, nici cu cea religioasa, mistica, de duh, chiar daca nu le exclude, ci face referire la un ansamblu de onto-formatiuni psihologic-ontologice, formate si instituite ontogenetic-experiential, in contextul unor premise si factori obiectivi precum corpul omenesc, senzatiile, trebuintele, experientele subiective spirituale si social-culturale, contextul natural si cultural si, in special, a unor factori precum caracteristicile persoanelor apropiate, continuitatea si consistenta interactiunilor si relatiilor specific umane de atasament, comunicare, convietuire, iubire. Altfel spus, sursa principala a formarii si fiintarii/ functionarii sufletului persoanei este OMUL (celalalt), cu tot sistemul cultural si natural pe care, ancestral sau existential, il antreneaza."
