The OCLC Research WorldCat Identities project is ending. The work provided valuable insight into how to mine bibliographic data for insight into the People and Organizations that create and serve as subjects library materials. The findings demonstrated the power of data mining over the world’s largest set of bibliographic metadata and highlighted the value of collaborative collective cataloging. The WorldCat Identities data has positively impacted OCLC’s work to build the WorldCat Entities application and the 150 million Person and Work descriptions accessible through it. This work will continue to build our entity ecosystem to support the future knowledge work of librarians.

The WorldCat Identities web application will be retired and shut down in the coming months and the data is no longer being updated. The most recent version of the data is from July of 2022. As OCLC continues to build out the WorldCat Entities ecosystem, please use it as a source for persistent Person identifiers. https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity

Positive family therapy : the family as therapist by Nossrat Peseschkian( Book )

16 editions published between 1980 and 2000 in 4 languages and held by 248 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"The author's principal aim is to win over the patient through the development of the "positive" aspects of his psychopathology-a concern the significance of which I have also discovered, especially in schizophrenic therapy. It is in this specific sense that Peseschkian speaks of "positive" psychotherapy. His model is a notable synthesis of psychodynamic and behavior-therapeutic elements, making an essential contribution to unified relationships within psychotherapy. In this way Peseschkian is attempting not to directly confront the patient's resistances. The consultation takes place in a loving way through allusions to poetry, proverbs and oriental fairy tales and myths, to which Peseschkian, as a Persian, has direct access. His ability to offer his patient a great treasure of handed-down wisdom knows no bounds. Anyone who has personally experiƯ enced the author's therapeutic enthusiasm and optimism will understand why this method of short psychotherapeutic procedure is highly successful in its effects.

In search of meaning : a psychotherapy of small steps by Nossrat Peseschkian( Book )

8 editions published in 1985 in English and German and held by 241 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Many authors shy away from religious definitions of human purpose. But Nossrat Peseschkian, who shares with me the Baha'i perspective of purpose, clearly shows how the quest to unite a soul with its God serves and is served by scientific and cultural perspectives of meaning. Spiritual verities become beacons to guide us to find ways to work together and create new dimen sions for consultation in the making of decisions. Depression is rife today. We often do not feel that we are in charge of our own lives, and feel impotent to influence the destiny of society. Peseschkian brings us a positive approach. He provides a key for us to discover the relationship between our various capacities and their development. For so many of us, our capacities lie unused, often even unrecognized. This book seeks to answer the question {laquo}How can I use my capacities?" and to demonstrate practically and specifically how science, politics, religion, and the web of human relationships can assist in their development and use. Balance is the key: the balance betwen various aspects of our life, the balance of our modes of learning and thinking and feeling, the balance in our concept of man and his purpose, the balance found in the lessons of the past and the vision of the future, and the balance which defines our responsibility for our personal and our societal destinies
Oriental stories as tools in psychotherapy : the merchant and the parrot by Nossrat Peseschkian( Book )

33 editions published between 1980 and 2017 in 9 languages and held by 189 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

If you give someone a fish, you feed him only once. If you teach him how to fish, he can feed himself forever. --Oriental wisdom When a German or American comes home in the evening, he wants his peace and quiet. That, at least, is the general rule. He sits down in front of the television, drinks his hard-earned beer and reads his newspaper, as if to say, "Leave me in peace. After working so hard, I have a right to it." For him, this is relaxation. In the East, a man relaxes in a different way. By the time he comes home, his wife has already invited a few guests, relatives, or family and business friends. By chatting with his guests, he feels relaxed, as though freely translating the motto "Guests are a gift from God." Relaxation can thus mean many things. There is no set definition for everything that relaxation comprises. People relax in the way they have learned how, and the way they hav~earned is what is customary in their family or group, or in the social circle to which they belong
Positive psychotherapy : theory and practice of a new method by Nossrat Peseschkian( Book )

11 editions published in 1987 in English and German and held by 175 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

The author's model of Positive Psychotherapy is a synthesis of psychodynamics and behavior therapy that focuses on the positive aspects of conflicts and sufferings. He offers transcultural perspectives in the form of proverbs, myths and fables in which the patient may recognize himself in allegorical terms and thus be able to establish a new form of self-confidence and security. Positive Psychotherapy introduces the methods and therapy models of differentiation analytical psychotherapy. The discussion lays the theoretical foundation of Peseschkian's approach: that illness can be a reflection of conflict within the individual or between him and his surroundings
Psychotherapy of everyday life : training in partnership and self help : with 250 case histories by Nossrat Peseschkian( Book )

9 editions published between 1985 and 1986 in English and held by 114 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

In this book East and West are united in a total vision which gives the reader an expansive view of inner lives and behaviors, some of which are healthy and some not. The author presents an analysis of contemporary social relationships and the attitudes associated with them. But he does far more than this. He also vividly describes the "primary" and "secondary" capabiliƯ ties of the psyche, capabilities that are valid for all times and all situations. Peseschkian draws on his experiences in the Middle Eastern homeland of his youth and also on the insights he has gained through his psychotherapeutic practice. He does not stop with special examples, but draws conclusions that are valid for people everywhere. He then molds these conclusions into an illustrative system. Uniquely interesting are the passages where the author describes errors in the development of a child and erroneous attitudes on the part of the educator, such as when he characterizes the punitive behavior of parents: "Right from the start a child must learn to obeYi" "There must be punishmenti" and "You have to break the child's wilL" Or when he shows how tensions between the parents are transferred to their children: "You're just like your father. He doesn't know what punctuality is either." The author attempts to integrate his faith in psychotherapy with his vision of the world and also tries to understand the world's religions as an expression of their times

Das SchmeHerlingsphanomen Ein Schmetterling hat sich in mein Zimmer verirrt. Unermudlich stof5t er im Fluge gegen die Fenster scheiben, immer von neuem, bis er ermattet auf die Fensterbank fallt. Dann rappelt er sich wieder auf, und da in seiner Vorstellungswelt Fensterscheiben nicht vorkommen, stof5t er weiter mit dem Kopf da gegen. Er merkt nicht, daf5 dicht daneben die Bal kontur offensteht. Erika Grube Dberall, wo Menschen zusammentreffen und ein sinnvolles Leben fuhren wollen, entwickeln sich Migver standnisse, Schwierigkeiten, Auseinandersetzungen und Konflikte, die fur den einzelnen zu Streg fuhren kbnnen. Wir aIle sind von solchen Problemen und Stregfak toren im Verhaltnis zu uns selbst, zu unserem Partner, un seren Mitmenschen und in unseren Lehenszielen betrof fen. Daher besteht auch ein groges Bedurfnis nach neuen Wegen und Methoden der Psychotherapie und Selbsthil fe, die okonomisch, wirksam und praxisnah sind. Gesund wollen wir im folgenden nicht denjenigen nennen, der keine Prohleme hat, sondern den, der in der Lage ist, mit ihnen positiv und angemessen umzugehen. 1 Und das bedeutet kommunikatives und phantasievolles Handeln und Problemlosen. Es scheint mir aber wichtig, zu betonen, daiS Schwierigkeiten und Probleme im Beruf, in Partnerschaft und Ehe nicht aus der wie auch immer begriindeten Unfahigkeit eines Menschen entstehen, mit ihnen umzugehen. Sie entstehen aus der Tatsache, daiS er die notwendigen Voraussetzungen dazu nicht erlernt hat. Wie in der Geschichte des Schmetterlings wiederholen die Menschen so stan dig den gleichen Fehler
