The United States spends more per capita on health care than any other nation in the world--this despite a failure to guarantee universal coverage (even after Obama's reforms finally go into effect) and an infant mortality rate higher than that of most other advanced nations. Who has insurance, who doesn't; who has access to quality medical attention, who has to wait until a situation merits a panicked trip to the emergency room; who can fill their prescriptions without blinking, and who has to sometimes choose between pills and food: the discrepancies and inequalities when it comes to access to health care are stark. Among the poorer countries of the globe, of course, things are infinitely more devastating, from the food shortages that follow natural disasters to the continuing epidemic of HIV, which affects enormous swaths of entire countries' populations. It's often too vast, too overwhelming, too depressing, for the significance of such issues to be easily grasped, let alone adequately comprehended. The Little Book of Shocking Health Facts follows in the footsteps of its Shocking Facts predecessors--which treated such hot-button topics as food, the economy and the environment--by presenting a series of indelible, hard-hitting infographics that render in bold, unapologetic visual form some of the most telling realities of the trouble with being sick and the business of getting well.

A practical guide to implementing the rich theory of attachment for treating mental health challenges in children. This book both explains and illustrates how the practice of child mental health professionals can be enhanced, whatever their treatment approach, to encourage engagement, resilience, and development in children with mental health problems. Alongside practical recommendations, Daniel Hughes and Ben Gurney-Smith use dialogue from clinical work to illustrate applications of these principles from Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy as well as other attachment-based practices with parents and children. This “little book” will demystify how attachment theory—one of today’s most in-demand approaches—can actually be brought into clinical work. Topics include regulating emotional states; repairing ongoing relationships; establishing an attachment-based therapeutic relationship; accepting a child’s inner life; assessing the caregiver’s need for safety, regulation, and reflection; the importance of nonverbal and verbal conversations in facilitating secure attachment; and strengthening the mind of the child.

"The author has created a book firmly documented by scientific publications. It is a short book but extraordinarily rich in facts, facts often shocking and unacceptable. It is an invaluable dose of information about vitamins and minerals." - Bernard Fontaine MD What substances are able to reduce the risk of cancer by up to several dozen percent? Can the risk of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes be significantly reduced? What substances support immunity and thanks to them you can get rid of even acute viral and bacterial infections much faster? Can osteoporosis be cured? What substances can stop the development of multiple sclerosis? Can rheumatoid arthritis be cured without steroids? Can supposedly incurable diseases like Hashimoto's or Graves' disease be cured? Can valve calcification be prevented? This book is about that and much more... The number of diseases plaguing our society is huge. There are pharmacies at every intersection. More and more people get sick, and sometimes very seriously. Most people die of diseases related to the circulatory system. Then there are diseases associated with inflammation and infection of the lungs. Cancer is another extremely important problem. In addition, over 100 million adults suffer from diabetes or prediabetes in the US. Most people, including doctors, have no idea of any kind of prevention. How many of us have a family member suffering from cancer or diabetes? Probably many. Is it possible to significantly reduce the risk of developing these and other diseases? Many of the scientific publications on which this book is based indicate just that. The information in this book is useful and valuable not only for those who want to take care of their health or regain their health, but also for doctors who want to heal more effectively. The book is based on dozens of scientific publications and long medical practice. Many of these facts are unknown at all. Many of these facts also appear to negate common recommendations. And ignorance of these facts results in the fact that many people get sick and many, unfortunately, die. The book is short but succinct and essential. The aim of the author was to reveal the functions and effects of individual vitamins and minerals in such a way that the book was readable for an ordinary person who is not interested in reading long stories and unnecessary deliberation but also a contribution to further investigation for doctors. This is not a novel that is read all at once, but a collection of large amounts of information that is used over and over again in various, sometimes difficult, situations. Every household should have at least one copy of this book and use the knowledge contained in it to stay healthy. Alexandre Doumenach has been involved in medicine for many years. On the basis of hundreds of analyzes of medical research and other scientific publications, he decided to reveal this knowledge to the world, knowledge that is often completely unknown even in medical environments.

An Architectural Record Notable Book A fascinating, thought-provoking journey into our built environment Modern humans are an indoor species. We spend 90 percent of our time inside, shuttling between homes and offices, schools and stores, restaurants and gyms. And yet, in many ways, the indoor world remains unexplored territory. For all the time we spend inside buildings, we rarely stop to consider: How do these spaces affect our mental and physical well-being? Our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors? Our productivity, performance, and relationships? In this wide-ranging, character-driven book, science journalist Emily Anthes takes us on an adventure into the buildings in which we spend our days, exploring the profound, and sometimes unexpected, ways that they shape our lives. Drawing on cutting-edge research, she probes the pain-killing power of a well-placed window and examines how the right office layout can expand our social networks. She investigates how room temperature regulates our cognitive performance, how the microbes hiding in our homes influence our immune systems, and how cafeteria design affects what—and how much—we eat. Along the way, Anthes takes readers into an operating room designed to minimize medical errors, a school designed to boost students’ physical fitness, and a prison designed to support inmates’ psychological needs. And she previews the homes of the future, from the high-tech houses that could monitor our health to the 3D-printed structures that might allow us to live on the Moon. The Great Indoors provides a fresh perspective on our most familiar surroundings and a new understanding of the power of architecture and design. It's an argument for thoughtful interventions into the built environment and a story about how to build a better world—one room at a time.
