Books by Richard Stevens

In a dark land sealed by ancient powers, evil reigns unchallenged. Nature is warped and tortured, the land defiled and deadened. Heroes are almost unheard of and life is harsh, survival not assured. Monsters, daemons and undead horrors roam free. Powerful beings manipulate and dominate those they consider weaker than themselves. In this imprisoned world, dark secrets lie waiting to be discovered. Hidden answers to the inescapable truths of the Banes within ..

A tale of friendship and war, of love and hatred, of survival and loss. Transpiring across time and space, on two separate worlds, spanning over seven hundred years of history and incorporating other planes of existence. Quintin is lost and drifting throughout the ages with no memory of what or who he is. Hunted by sinister Minions of the Dark, Quintin seems painfully unaware that he alone is the last of an order of interstellar knights - guardians of galactic peace.

Stevens sees three crises in American judicial statesmanship

Looks at three crises in American judicial statesmanship; the first was the crisis of the founding.

Erik Erikson has been described as 'probably the most significant post-Freudian thinker' with a 'unique and profound vision'. Al Gore was his student, Bill Clinton a great admirer. Getting to grips with his complex ideas however is no easy task. This book provides a comprehensive and in-depth road map to Erikson's work and is ideal for all students of Psychology. Stevens lucidly and authoritatively analyses his ideas about childhood development, adolescence, identity, the life cycle and his psychobiographical studies of Luther and Gandhi. This penetrating critique of Erikson's work reveals how relevant his ideas are today.

A beautifully written exposition of Freud's ideas and how they emerged from the zeitgeist of the age, Stevens offers students and general readers a stimulating and uniquely balanced assessment of Freud's work. He also examines its implications for society and for understanding the person. The best and most readable introduction to Freud available.
