'What are marriage difficulties really all about?' This fundamental question, and the allied one of how help can be given to those in trouble in their marriages, constitute the theme of this book. Originally published in 1960, the authors were a group of caseworkers who over the previous ten years had treated and studied the problems of about 2,000 married couples. They worked as a closely-knit specialist unit in co-operation with psychiatric consultants from the Tavistock Clinic. The work is based on the psycho-analytic theory of personality development and human relationships. This theory is supported by five detailed case-studies which form the central part of the book. The main purpose is to demonstrate the particular therapeutic technique which has been evolved. The book would have been of interest to social workers, doctors and all who were concerned to make marriages as rich a source of happiness as possible at the time. Today it can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.

In this work the distinguished physical chemist and philosopher, Michael Polanyi, demonstrates that the scientist's personal participation in his knowledge, in both its discovery and its validation, is an indispensable part of science itself. Even in the exact sciences, "knowing" is an art, of which the skill of the knower, guided by his personal committment and his passionate sense of increasing contact with reality, is a logically necessary part. In the biological and social sciences this becomes even more evident. The tendency to make knowledge impersonal in our culture has split fact from value, science from humanity. Polanyi wishes to substitute for the objective, impersonal ideal of scientific detachment an alternative ideal which gives attention to the personal involvement of the knower in all acts of understanding. His book should help to restore science to its rightful place in an integrated culture, as part of the whole person's continuing endeavor to make sense of the totality of his experience. In honor of this work and his The Study of Man Polanyi was presented with the Lecomte de Noüy Award for 1959.

Bureaucracy in Modern Society

Hans Winterschild, well trained for death but unable to cope with life, is the perfect Nazi. At twenty-four he has seen action in Poland and gained a chest full of decorations, and a nervous tick. But when posted to the Italian front, Hans meets a prostitute who reveals to him, for the first time, his own humanity. Very soon the terrifying Nazi officer becomes an object of pity. This is a comic masterpiece moving across a map of Europe at war and embracing an hilarious cast of cosmopolitan characters. Ustinov writes with a profound understanding of human nature, underscoring his comedy with a bittersweet tinge of tragedy.
