Stern, Daniel N.
Forms of Vitality : Exploring Dynamic Experience in Psychology, the Arts, Psychotherapy, and Development / Daniel N. Stern. – Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2010. – 174 p. – ISBN 978-0-19-958606-6.

In his new book, celebrated psychologist and psychiatrist Daniel Stern, author of the classic "The interpersonal world of the infant", explores the hitherto neglected topic of "vitality" - that is, the force or power manifested by all living things. Vitality takes on many dynamic forms and permeates daily life, psychology, psychotherapy, and the arts, yet what is vitality? We know that it is a manifestation of life, of being alive. We are alert to its feeling in ourselves and its expression in others. Life shows itself in so many different formsof vitality. But just how can we study this phenomenon? Until now, this has been a topic considered impervious to any kind of scientific study. But according to Stern, it is possible to trace vitality to real physical and mental operations - including movement, time, and perception of force - as well as spatial aspects of movement and its underlying intention. In this fascinating book he shows how an understanding of vitality can help the psychotherapeutic process (including a look at the developmental origins of forms of vitality) and examines how these theories of vitality might fit with our current knowledge of workings of the brain. Truly a tour de force from brilliant clinician and scientist, "Forms of Vitality" is a profound and absorbing book - one that will be essential reading for psychologists, psychotherapists, and those in the creative arts.
