Transformational healing: The phenomenology of fulfilment in the face of adversity
In the last two decades, there has been an explosion of scholarship in the phenomenology of health and illness of great practical significance for clinicians and the allied health professions. 'Healing' has been distinguished from medical 'cure' insofar as it involves a process of existential re-integration even in the face of ongoing illness and incapacity. This article goes further than much existing literature in the field: it examines ways in…
“We’re protecting them to death”—A Heideggerian interpretation of loneliness among older adults in long-term care facilities during Covid-19: Contact details
Population Characteristics, Morphometry, and Growth of Harvested Gray Wolves and Coyotes in Alaska
Few concurrent studies exist of sympatric gray wolf (Canis lupus) and coyote (C. latrans) harvest at far northern latitudes. Moreover, no studies explicitly examine effects of concurrent harvest on phenotypes of wolves and coyotes. We documented changes in sex and age characteristics and morphology of gray wolves and coyotes harvested by hunters near Ptarmigan Lake, east-central Alaska, USA, between 1998 and 2001. We hypothesized that the harvest…
Dostoevsky, Existential Therapy, and Modern Rage: On the Possibility of Counseling the Underground Man
It is often said today that we live in the “Age of Rage.” This article explores the phenomenon of modern rage through an analysis of the psychic conflicts of Dostoevsky’s “underground man,” as he tries to reconcile the newly imported values of modernity with his own needs and desires. By interpreting rage through the classic Greek notion of the daimonic, the author examines how the modern attempt to rationally control and suppress rage actually e…

Simmel on Acceleration, Boredom, and Extreme Aesthesia
By focusing on the unique velocity and over‐stimulation of metropolitan life, Georg Simmel pioneered an interpretation of cultural boredom that has had a significant impact on contemporary social theory by viewing it through the modern experience of time‐pressure and social acceleration. This paper explores Simmel's account of boredom by showing how—in the frenzy of modern life—it has become increasingly difficult to qualitatively distinguish whi…
Acceleration and Time Pathologies: The critique of psychology in Heidegger's Beiträge
In his Contributions to Philosophy, Martin Heidegger (1999) introduces 'acceleration' as one of the three symptoms - along with 'calculation' and the 'outbreak of massiveness' - of our technological way of 'being-in-the-world'. In this article, I unpack the relationship between these symptoms and draw a twofold conclusion. First, interpreting acceleration in terms of time pathologies, I suggest the self is becoming increasingly fragmented and emo…
The Missing Dialogue between Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty: On the Importance of the Zollikon Seminars
Heidegger's failure to discuss 'the body' in Being and Time has generated a cottage industry of criticism. In his recently translated Zollikon Seminars, Heidegger provides a response to the critics by offering a thematic account of the body that is strikingly similar to Merleau-Ponty's account in Phenomenology of Perception. In this article, I draw on the parallels between these two texts in order to see how Heidegger's neglect of the body affect…
