The examples lead to endless questions about the things that are incomprehensible in people, in relationships among people, and in society at large.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The concept \u201crefined evil\u201d involves the transfer of hidden and unknown things from generation to generation. It turns out that people can inherit not just property, but also attitudes and values that are not always favourable or useful to individuals and to society at large. The book makes it possible to understand this inherited surrogate, which is propagated, maintained and cultivated without knowing that this is happening and while suffering because of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cRefined Evil\u201d helps readers to identify endless and widely used manipulations used against individuals. Theoretical ideas illustrate the psychological instruments that modern people need so as to spot and manage these manipulations.<\/span><\/p>\n<br \/>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The book includes the following topics:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18407 alignright\" style=\"font-size: 18.6667px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/411OuXwSsL._SX331_BO1204203200_-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/411OuXwSsL._SX331_BO1204203200_-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/411OuXwSsL._SX331_BO1204203200_-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/411OuXwSsL._SX331_BO1204203200_.jpg 333w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Health &amp; Psychology;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Self-Therapy at Home;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The Truth About Sex and Feelings;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Psychological Causes of Illness;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Character &amp; Emotional State;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Prohibitions &amp; Provocations;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Character As an Obstacle To Relationships;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Why Individuality Confronts With Mass?;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Self-Discovery Through The Surrounding View;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Unfulfilled Longing of The Looks;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Emotional family heritage.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<br \/>\n<h4><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Opening of the book REFINED EVIL (Izkoptais \u013caunums)<\/span><\/h4>\n<br \/>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Izkoptais \u013baunums\" width=\"1060\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cwVR6Hj1iUE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<br \/>\n<hr \/>\n<br \/>\n<h4><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/PSYCHOLOGY-CUISINE-Evelina-Grava-ebook\/dp\/B076PJ2C7M\/\">PSYCHOLOGY AND CUISINE or CUISINE AND PSYCHOLOGY<\/a> by Evelina Grava and Daniel Jahn<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18419 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PSYCHOLOGY-AND-CUISINE-or-CUISINE-AND-PSYCHOLOGY-206x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"206\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PSYCHOLOGY-AND-CUISINE-or-CUISINE-AND-PSYCHOLOGY-206x300.png 206w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PSYCHOLOGY-AND-CUISINE-or-CUISINE-AND-PSYCHOLOGY-8x12.png 8w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/PSYCHOLOGY-AND-CUISINE-or-CUISINE-AND-PSYCHOLOGY.png 555w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 206px) 100vw, 206px\" \/>What does a table set for a banquet say about us? What determines our nutritional choices? What do eating habits tell us about the relevant individual? Can two areas of science that are so very different \u2013 psychology and the culinary arts \u2013 even be brought together, and are they really all that different? All that remains is to make a few observations that lead to new revelations, confirmations and conclusions!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The book covers ten periods in time, starting with the Stone Age and ending with the present day. The authors have described culinary trends during each era, as well as the psychological portrait of a consumer who has created cooking traditions and makes use of them for nutritional purposes. Readers of the book will discover that the desire to be a vegetarian can be linked to the Art Deco period, which means that this discovery can help one to understand one\u2019s emotional world and be more conscious in approaching such elegant rationality. On the other hand, people who represent the worldview of the Baroque era and try to accept the psychological rules of Art Deco can lose some of themselves and their uniqueness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18570 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/foto-viena-no-smalkakajam-latvijas-muizam-prezenteta-ipasa-gramata-58e1f7f4803a5-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/foto-viena-no-smalkakajam-latvijas-muizam-prezenteta-ipasa-gramata-58e1f7f4803a5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/foto-viena-no-smalkakajam-latvijas-muizam-prezenteta-ipasa-gramata-58e1f7f4803a5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/foto-viena-no-smalkakajam-latvijas-muizam-prezenteta-ipasa-gramata-58e1f7f4803a5-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/foto-viena-no-smalkakajam-latvijas-muizam-prezenteta-ipasa-gramata-58e1f7f4803a5-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.konsuls.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/foto-viena-no-smalkakajam-latvijas-muizam-prezenteta-ipasa-gramata-58e1f7f4803a5.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The uniqueness of the book rests in the fact that it brings together two important topics \u2013 the culinary arts and psychology, thus offering an unprecedented opportunity to study one\u2019s own personality through the prism of nutrition. Readers will recognise their ideas about themselves and the world, separate conscious and subconscious beliefs about food, identify themselves in accordance with the relevant historical era, and put the new knowledge to practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The book offers a chance to find regularities between cause and effect when it comes to eating habits. It is a way to focus on personal growth without clich\u00e9s. The content of \u201cPsychology and Cuisine\u201d will inspire the readers to become more interesting for themselves and those around them, because the choice of foods is a personal business card. Preparing and eating breakfast, lunch and dinner is a form of self-realisation. The book also includes an original test that readers can use to quickly understand their nutritional style and psychological appropriateness therein.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">This book is informative about how to choose a meal and how to understand one\u2019s own psychological type. It is also a brief history of the culinary arts, a guidebook to learn more about oneself and those around oneself through the prism of these arts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n<div id=\"highlighter--hover-tools\" style=\"display: none;\">\n<div id=\"highlighter--hover-tools--container\">\n<div class=\"highlighter--icon highlighter--icon-copy\" title=\"Copy\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"highlighter--separator\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"highlighter--icon highlighter--icon-change-color\" title=\"Change Color\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"highlighter--separator\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"highlighter--icon highlighter--icon-delete\" title=\"Delete\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AUTHOR EVELINA GRAVA Evelina Grava has written three books and a number of other publications.\u00a0 In 1997, E.
