Threshold should have a positive effect on the care of the terminally ill.'-Dr Raymond Moody, author of Life After Life'Captivating .

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Una obra para aportar valor y confianza a aquellos a los que la lectura de «El hombre en busca de sentido» aportó ya conocimiento y consuelo Viktor Frankl nos dejó una conmocionante lección existencial con su relato testimonial de supervivencia en los campos de concentración. Sin embargo, lo que le ocurrió los meses posteriores tras su liberación permaneció oculto para la mayoría de sus lectores. Con el paso de los años, Frankl cedió, para su examen y publicación, las notas personales y las cartas de su archivo privado con el convencimiento de que sus vivencias durante la etapa del regreso a casa podrían aportar valor y confianza a aquellos que buscan consuelo. «Llegará un día en el que serás libre» es el fruto de ese trabajo. La presente obra es una selección de los textos y la correspondencia de Frankl al regresar a Viena después de que terminara su vida como prisionero en cuatro campos de concentración. Este libro, complemento y continuación de «El Hombre en busca de sentido», revela nuevas informaciones que resultarán sorprendentes tanto para los conocedores de la biografía de Frankl como para el público que quiera saber más sobre su vida y pensamiento. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Nuestras abuelas nunca oyeron hablar de la «lucidez terminal», aunque sabían bien de lo que hablaban. Iban a visitar a un moribundo y mientras estaban en la casa callaban, pero ya fuera comentaban entre ellas: «Hoy le he visto muy animado, y volvía a acordarse de todo, ay, no creo que pase de mañana?». Y así era. La lucidez terminal es un fenómeno relativamente frecuente que la ciencia ortodoxa ignora y que aun así forma parte de nuestra experiencia ancestral y del día a día de enfermeras y cuidadores. Según todos ellos, cerca del final de la vida, muchas personas que han sufrido lesiones cerebrales irreversibles o demencia profunda experimentan un momentáneo «retorno milagroso del yo» que antecede siempre al fallecimiento. Así, por lo general durante unas horas, estas personas recuperan por completo la lucidez, la memoria y la energía, son capaces de hablar de nuevo con sus familiares y parecen conscientes de la inminencia de su muerte con una calma y aceptación sorprendentes. Pero si sabemos que la destrucción física del tejido cerebral que produce el alzhéimer o el cáncer no es recuperable, y que las neuronas no se regeneran a gran escala, ¿cómo y dónde se preserva el yo de estas personas que han permanecido durante años «desaparecidas» e inaccesibles? Si en esencia somos la materialidad de nuestro cuerpo, ¿cómo puede haber mente, recuerdos e identidad en ausencia de un cerebro funcional? En este extraordinario ensayo, Alexander Batthyány, catedrático de Psicología, especialista en ciencia cognitiva y director del prestigioso Instituto Viktor Frankl de Viena, ofrece la primera investigación sobre la lucidez terminal realizada en el mundo, recopilando cientos de casos y vinculándolos a su propio trabajo de campo sobre las llamadas «experiencias cercanas a la muerte». Así, este libro cuenta una historia sobre la decadencia y la muerte muy distinta a la que estás acostumbrado a escuchar, abriendo, a través del misterio de la conciencia humana, una nueva posibilidad para entender qué somos en realidad los seres humanos. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
