Perché gli adolescenti sono tristi? Da che cosa deriva il loro senso perenne di inadeguatezza nei confronti del mondo che li circonda? Come si articolano, e come si confrontano, esperienze psicopatologiche ed esperienze creative? Quali sono gli orizzonti problematici della psichiatria oggi? Sono inconciliabili tra loro, o sono possibili reciproche influenze? Sappiamo riconoscere il valore umano della malattia? Queste e altre domande articolano una riflessione sulle passioni fragili che appartengono alla nostra vita e alla nostra crescita.

Warum lieben Kinder es, Knöpfe zu drücken? Warum haben sie ganz plötzlich Angst vor Fremden? Warum verstecken sie sich so gern - und sind trotzdem so verdammt schlecht darin?

A child's concept of race is quite different from that of an adult. Young children perceive skin color as magical - even changeable - and are incapable of understanding adult prejudices. Just as children learn to walk and talk, they likewise come to understand race in a series of predictable stages. Based on Marguerite A. Wright's research and clinical experience, I'm Chocolate, You're Vanilla teaches us that the color-blindness of early childhood can, and must, be taken advantage of in order to guide the positive development of a child's self-esteem.

In Speaking for Ourselves, renowned ethnomusicologist Michael Bakan does just that, engaging in deep conversations - some spanning the course of years - with 10 fascinating and very different individuals who share two basic things in common: an autism spectrum diagnosis and a life in which music plays a central part.
