  Beyond PTSD – Into a New Life After Trauma
  
  
  Trembling, sweating, panic attacks – a small noise or a faint smell is enough to catapult you into hell. You have experienced this countless times, you know the loss of control, the physical and emotional reactions, and all the limitations that come with it. But alongside the pain, there is something else: your strong, unyielding will to reclaim your life. And here, in all the horror, there is good news: There is life with, and above all, life after PTSD.
  
  Post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD for short, turns your entire life upside down. With the experience that triggered this mental disorder, you have gone to the limits of what is bearable and beyond. Whether you are affected yourself or a relative, you know exactly how fundamentally the rest of your life is determined by the consequences of the traumatic event. But you are not powerless against it. Psychology now offers numerous methods to help you reclaim your self-determination, and alongside professional therapy, your own initiative is at least as important. It essentially consists of two building blocks: thought and awareness exercises give you concrete, easy-to-implement tools with which you can directly influence your perception and experience, and in addition, by acquiring comprehensive knowledge, you become an expert on your own illness – a crucial step on the path to self-empowerment.
  
  Observe, understand – and finally move on
  
  This encouraging guide now provides you with all the tools you need. It first presents the current state of science in a clear and precise way and explains why PTSD is neither a verdict nor a destiny. You will learn how the disorder develops, what valuable protective function your brain has taken on for you, and how the illness can finally be overcome constructively and healingly. Simple and immediately applicable exercises offer a strong shield against the attacks of dreaded trigger situations and give you precious moments of calm and relaxation.

  Nowhere Left to Go - How Climate...

  Benjamin von Brackel

  Harrowing journeys of animals and plants—fleeing skyrocketing temperatures—reported from the frontlines of the greatest migration of species since the Ice Age. 
   
   
   
  As humans accelerate global warming while laying waste to the environment, animals and plants must flee to the margins: on scattered nature reserves, between major highways, or among urban sprawl. And when even these places become too hot and inhospitable, wildlife is left with only one path to survival: an often-formidable journey toward the poles as they race to find a new home in a warming world. Tropical zones lose their inhabitants, beavers settle in Alaska, and gigantic shoals of fish disappear—just to reappear along foreign coastlines. 
   
   
   
  Award-winning environmental journalist Benjamin von Brackel traces these awe-inspiring journeys and celebrates the remarkable resilience of species around the world. But the lengths these plants and animals must go to avoid extinction are as alarming as they are inspirational: Sea animals—like fish—move on average forty-five miles a decade to cooler regions, while land animals—like beavers and butterflies—move eleven miles. As even the poles of the Earth heat up, we're left with a stark and irreversible choice: Halt the climate emergency now, or face a massive die-off of species, who are increasingly left with nowhere else to go.

  Called By The Wild - The Dogs...

  The thrilling story of a pioneering conservationist working with dogs to protect wildlife from poachers.
  Conraad de Rosner is one of the first game rangers to focus on working with specially trained dogs to protect wildlife from poachers – both 'bushmeat' poachers, who use cruel snares to trap animals, and criminal syndicates killing for rhinoceros horn and capturing critically endangered pangolins, the most trafficked animal in the world.
  Con's life – constantly at risk from poachers, wildlife and even his own fellow rangers – has been saved on numerous occasions by his devoted canine companions. His first dog, Zingela, a Weimaraner, saved Con from near certain death at the hands of two fellow rangers; on another occasion, Zingela alerted Con to a concealed wounded buffalo, one of Africa's most dangerous animals, about to charge.
  When Zingela was tragically killed, hit by a car while Con was away, the only meagre consolation was that Con had kept Landa, one of the nine puppies sired by Zingela. Landa followed in his father's footsteps as the leader of the canine anti-poaching team that is still operating today. Con's story is an epic of modern-day African wildlife conservation, filled with courage, adventure and romance.
