<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>What does it mean to be human? Human development unfolds in a twofold way. On the one hand, there is an ever-more profound incarnation, or "inhabitation," of the physical body. On the other hand, there is the increasing discrimination of the individual objects of the world.</p> <p>Difficulties and obstacles along this path can lead to so-called disabilities. König's approach to curative education allows us to see these disabilities as meaningful ways of coping with or resolving the various problems that arise in living in a physical body. From this point of view, "disabilities" are exaggerated forms of ways we all use to cope with life.</p> <p>"The point is not only to see the deviations, but to see them against the mighty backdrop of a comprehensive child anthropology." <i>Being Human</i> presents the outline of just such a comprehensive anthropology.</p> <p><i><strong>Being Human</strong></i> is of value not only to those working in special education, but to anyone interested in the dynamics of incarnation and "normal" development.</p> <p>∞ ∞ ∞</p> <p><strong>CONTENTS: </strong></p> <p>Foreword by Michaela Glöckler<br />Introduction by Cornelius Pietzner</p> <p><strong>PART I</strong></p> <p>Three Ways of Diagnosing<br />Some Guiding Images in the Area of Motor Disturbances: The Lonely Individual<br />Some Guiding Images in the Area of Sensory Disturbances<br />The Problem of Right and Left<br />The World of Language<br />The <i>Gestalt</i> of the Child</p> <p><strong>PART II</strong></p> <p>An Introduction to Convulsive Disorders<br />Different Types of Convulsive Disorders<br />Epilepsy and Hysteria</p>
