"Perception is far more dependent on prior knowledge – painstakingly created internal models of the world – than we usually take it to be".

"“A PRIVATE LIFE” is a murder mystery only on its surface; at its heart, it’s an exploration of a lonely woman’s extremely active mind, and an unexpectedly moving story of becoming more present in one’s real life, rather than one’s imaginary one."

Social psychiatry could stem the rising tide of mental illness Social psychiatry has fallen from favour. It’s time to revisit it.

The Jeffrey Epstein files have shattered Norway’s illusions about itself | Sindre Bangstad Norway built its global brand on diplomacy and egalitarianism. The cosying up of its elite to the sex offender can only boost the far right, says the academic Sindre Bangstad

"As our illusions about Norway’s global reputation are shattered, the fabric of that social contract seems threatened. (...) The Epstein files (...) are any far-right conspiracist’s dream." Sindre Bangstad in The Guardian: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
