Timothy Leary Ph.D - Air date: March 1984 PROGRAM NOTE: there are some problems with the video during portions of the program but the audio is solid.

Constantine Papadakis, Ph.D. One of the nation's most dynamic and successful university presidents, Constantine Papadakis, Ph.D., president of Drexel University, offers an update on the dramatic growth the University has experienced since he assumed leadership in 1995: student enrollment has doubled and the endowment has increased seven-fold. With warmth and humor, Dr. Papadakis reveals his secret of success: he first announces expansion plans to the media, then he rallies Drexel administrators to accomplish those plans. He notes that his plan to make Drexel a comprehensive research university is well underway with the establishment of Drexel's schools of medicine, law, public health, and nursing. Dr. Papadakis speaks about the benefits of Drexel's for-profit distance learning company, Drexel Online, and his plans to export the Drexel brand to other regions of the country.

He has had four books published previously, including a book critiquing Zionism, and numerous essays and articles. A critic of the mental health system, he has been a guest on many television and radio shows. His first book Madness, Heresy and the Rumor of Angels:The Revolt Against the Mental Health System(Open Court, Chicago, 1993) contained a foreword by Thomas Szasz. The publication of his book Lunching with Lunatics: Adventures of a Renegade Psychologist has been temporarily postponed due to circumstances beyond his control. (See excerpts.) Dr Farber is also an editor of the pioneering review The Journal of Mind and Behavior, and is currently working on a book on "mad liberation" and the new spirituality. Farber founded the Network Against Coercive Psychiatry in 1988. Selected Works Nonfiction Madness, Heresy, and the Rumor of Angels: The Revolt Against the Mental Health System A work in the tradition of Thomas Szasz, R.D. Laing, Michel Foucault and Erving Goffman, a challenge to the delusional belief-system known as psychiatry; and a protest against its appalling crimes. Eternal Day: The Christian Alternative to Secularism and Modern Psychology (Regina Press, 1998) A critique of psychoanalysis and the medical model model of psychology as a form of secularized Augustinianism. Augustinianism, with its insistence on predestination and eternal damnation, was an inversion of the original Christian teaching of human freedom to respond to infinite grace and the promise of universal salvation. Unholy Madness: The Church's Surrender to Psychiatry (InterVarsity Press,1999) "An important book." --Thomas Szasz, M.D., Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry, State University of New York Health Science Center; author of The Myth of Mental Illness (Click on title above to read excerpt from book.) Radicals, Rabbis and Peacemakers:Conversations with Jewish Critics of Israel (Common Courage Press, 2005) The contributors are among the leading American Jewish critics of Zionism and of Israel's policies towards the Palestinians: Noam Chomsky, Norman Finkelstein, Marc Ellis, Adam Shapiro, Phyllis Bennis, Rabbi Weiss and 6 others. Psychiatry Today (2001) Excerpt (slightly altered) from essay in Review of Existential Psychology and Psychiatry (2001, 25th Anniversary Issue) "Against Psychotherapy and Biological Psychiatry" Organization Network Against Coercive Psychiatry Network Against Coercive Psychiatry is an organization comprised of psychotherapists (including psychiatrists), survivors of psychiatric incarceration (commonly known as "mental patients"), scholars and other concerned citizens. Pending memoir. Non-fiction. Lunching with Lunatics:Adventures of a Renegade Psychologist. After years of practicing therapy,Dr Farber-- a psychologist in the tradition of his hero, radical psychiatrist R.D. Laing-- concludes that mental illness is a myth and that "schizophrenics," although often troubled, are the vanguard of a cultural revolution. Farber falls in love with Carla, and a few years later with Lily, both "schizophrenics." (Neither were patients of his.) These two crazy women are so intelligent and charismatic that their personalities burst through the stereotype of "mental illness." Farber talks to crazy people in their own language. Psychiatrists call it "schizophrenese" but Farber calls it the language of dreams, of poetry, of magic. Farber's dogged romantic persistence makes us wonder whether he is a brilliant visionary or a crackpot himself--or both. This is an inspiring story, profound in its implications--it is an affirmation of a vision of life beyond the dichotomies of sanity and insanity as we know them.

Shann Turnbull Ph.D - 10-01-08 - Air date Dr Shann Turnbull Principal International Institute for Self-governance Email: Click here for Personal home page Click here for details on SSRN ________________________________________ Biography Shann Turnbull researches and teaches corporate governance in Australia on a part time basis for the Macquarie University Graduate School of Management where he obtained his PhD in 2001. His PhD thesis showed how the science of control and communication in the animal and the machine could be extended to organisations to create a science of governance as presented in his articles. His thesis built upon his education as an electrical engineer in Tasmania, BSc from the University of Melbourne and an MBA from Harvard. From 1966 to 1974 he was a founding partner in a private group that gained control of over a dozen publicly traded corporations in Australia. This gave him experience as a controlling shareholder, company director, chairman of one company, and CEO of two others. As a serial entrepreneur founding new enterprises, some of which became publicly traded, he gained further experience as a Chairman and CEO. He also became joint CEO/owner of a mutual fund management company. In 1975 he founded the first educational course in the world to provide an educational qualification for company directors and published his first book on Democratising the Wealth of Nations. The novel ideas in his book led to consulting assignments for multi-national corporations, United Nations, World Bank, and governments, including in 1991 the Peoples Republic of China and Czechoslovakia. Since 2001 he has been rating the governance of the largest 100 organisations in Australia by turnover and introduced an MBA elective at Macquarie University on evaluating and designing the governance architecture of organisations in the government, non-profit and private sectors. His latest book was commissioned by the New Economics Foundation in London and published in 2002 as A New Way to Govern; Organisations and society after Enron.

Barbara Allen Dance Your Ph.D. Dissertation: Uneasy Alchemy: Citizens and Experts in Louisiana's Chemical Corridor Disputes (1999) from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Department of Science and Technology Studies. For my social science dissertation, I was interested in what situations and affiliations led to more positive outcomes for citizen groups protesting polluting industrial practices. After spending three years doing ethnographic fieldwork in south Louisiana's chemical corridor (also called Cancer Alley), a region of over 100 chemical plants located along the Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, I observed the following: 1) Diverse groups (i.e. mixed-race and mixed-class) were more successful in changing environmental policy and regulation. 2) Groups that allied themselves with public-oriented scientists were better able to engage in producing more effective policy-relevant environmental knowledge. I choreographed the dance piece with myself as the scientist, at first moving within the confines of the laboratory, and never looking out at the world. Two groups of citizens (red and blue) emerge and protest, separately at first, and then they join together. At this point the scientist joins with the group and eventually leads them. Unfurling a bright umbrella, a symbol of the New Orleans "second line" (a spontaneous parade for citizens participating unofficially in an event) , the scientist leads the group, now waving positive environmental signs, in a jubilant procession. I set the dance to the Soul Rebels, "Let Your Mind Be Free," in the tradition of New Orleans street parade music. The six performers from Bowen McCauley Dance creatively improvised their own movements as protesters. They were Alison Crosby, Alicia Curtis, Heidi Kershaw, Dustin Kimball, Amanda Moore, and Brook Urquhart. I am currently an associate professor and Director of the Graduate Program in Science and Technology Studies at Virginia Techs National Capital Region Campus.
