Open-mindedness is often celebrated in our modern world—yet the habit of open-mindedness remains under-defined, and may leave Christians with many questions. Is open-mindedness a virtue? What is the value of intellectual diversity, and how should Christians regard it? Is it a threat or an asset to the church and its tradition? Drawing on sources ancient and modern—from Aristotle to Augustine, Aquinas, and Wittgenstein—this book explores these questions from the perspectives of philosophy and the Christian faith.

Written with disarming honesty by a long-term sufferer of bipolar disorder, with more than half a century’s experience of intervention and treatment, this highly personal volume traces the effectiveness of a therapy modality for mental illness that has gained much ground in the past two decades: art. The author began to use art, and in particular doodling, from 1998 as a way of externalizing his feelings. Its expressiveness, accessibility and energy-efficiency was ideally suited to the catatonia he experienced during the bouts of depression that are a feature of bipolar disorder, while as the low moods lifted and his energy surged, he completed more ambitious and elaborate works. As well as being highly eclectic, Wheatley’s assembled oeuvre has afforded him both insights and therapeutic intervention into his condition, once deemed highly debilitating and taboo, but much more socially accepted now that well known sufferers such as Stephen Fry have recounted their experiences of the condition. After an opening account of how the images were generated, the volume reproduces a ‘gallery’ of selected work, and then offers an extended epilogue analyzing the art’s connections with the disorder as well as the author’s assessment of how each attempt at visual self-expression was, for him, a therapeutic intervention. Wheatley, a cell biologist who has enjoyed a full career in cancer research, has had no formal training in art, yet his haunting pictures, many of them resembling life forms, are brought to life by his perceptive, self-aware commentary. This book will be of interest to psychologists and psychiatrists among the wider medical profession as well as people suffering from any form of bipolar disorder whatever the severity.

Sometimes when the worst transpires in our relationships. We pretend everything is okay. But it is rarely not. I, for one, had a tough time understanding why everything happened to me. I mean all the effort that I put into the relationship, and then it just failed. I couldn't help except that, because I tried so very hard and as soon as I got past the winning line. Everything just broke apart piece by piece. So, I needed to understand the dynamics of what happened, so I don't make another mess like this. I mean, it was indeed a horrific time for me. Because those words that meant so much to me, once. 'I love you,' now seem to bring sorrow within. Especially when somebody you love reiterates those words with "I don't love you anymore.' And your life partner who was supposed to stay with you forever, seem to have other agendas. I still remember those giggles of yesterday. Sometimes they even make me laugh. I mean, what I couldn't understand is that people in relationships tend to have arguments and disputes. But each time we seem to have any debate or discussion, it seemed like the finale of our relationship. I was brought to my knees and made to lose arguments; otherwise, my partner would leave me. So, I needed to understand why I acted the way I did. And how my partner obtains this kind of control over me. Sometimes when we are in love, we can't overlook small infringement of controlling behaviour. Sometimes we give in and don't realize that we are creating a big issue down the road. I remember I use to give in quite a lot to please her. From which my partner got used to getting her way. Anyway.I was looking back at other relationships, which also did not work. I have ascertained that some issues are surrounding my understanding of what is needed in a relationship. So, I needed to take myself apart piece by piece until I realized what made me tick.To my surprise, there were many different areas which were identified where things did not add up. So, I made a list of what was bothering me. And I started to work on every piece of me so I couldn't understand why I was behaving the way I was. More importantly, what my fault was for my partner to betray my trust. It has taken a long while to get this far. I have had more pain than I can bear in my life. I bought myself to the brink of suicide. I couldn't see myself living without her. She was a big part of my life. And every morning I would wake up to a panic attack, instead of a warm cuddle. It is those small gestures that hurt the most in the end. I have compiled my research into the phenomena of 'myself' and what I came across. I believe sometimes people learn from someone else who is going through a similar situation. So, I thought to write everything down because this, too, is a healing in itself. But as I was writing the way, I realized that this information could help somebody else. For that reason, I am publishing my findings and how I overcame the most significant pain in my heart in my entire life.I hope this book finds its way to people who need to heal. Especially those people that need to understand why their partner has left. Sometimes it is those small liberties that we take for granted. Which, in the end, tills up, into a massive emotional debit which we overlook? And ultimately, this pays the way for the separation of a relationship.
