Winter - The Story of a Season

Val McDermid

In this radiant work of creative nonfiction, internationally beloved novelist Val McDermid delivers a dazzling ode to a lost world, ruminating on a single winter in her life as she journeys into the heart of the season's ever-evolving community-based traditions 
Val McDermid has always had a soft spot for winter: the bitter clarity of a crisp cold day, the crunch of frost on fallen leaves, and the chance to be enveloped in big jumpers and thick socks. 
In Winter, McDermid takes us on an adventure through the season, from the frosty streets of Edinburgh to the windblown Scottish coast, from Bonfire Night and Christmas to Burns Night and Up Helly Aa. Recalling in parallel memories from her own childhood--of skating over frozen lakes and carving a "neep" (rutabaga) for Halloween to being taken to see her first real Christmas tree in the town square--McDermid offers a wise and enchanting meditation on winter and its ever-changing, sometimes ephemeral, traditions. 
A hygge-filled journey through winter nights, McDermid reminds us that it is a time of rest, retreat and creativity, for scribbling in notebooks and settling in beside the fire. A treat for the hunkering-down, post-holiday reading season, Winter is a charming and cozy celebration of the year's idle months from one of Scotland's best-loved writers.

Even having one of the finest and most dedicated teams was not enough. It is critical for: 
The patient to be involved

The Story of Drugs - How...

John Harpoon

Throughout human history, substances have shaped the course of civilizations, influencing not only individual lives but entire societies. From the sacred plants used in ancient religious rituals to the drugs that sparked global trade and conflict, substances have been at the center of some of the most transformative events in human history. These substances—whether natural or synthetic—have impacted cultures, economies, medicine, and politics in ways that continue to reverberate today.
The use of psychoactive substances is as old as human civilization itself. In ancient times, plants like opium, cannabis, and peyote were not only used for their mind-altering properties but also for their spiritual significance. Shamanistic rituals, often involving trance-like states induced by these substances, were common across many early societies. These practices tied substances to deep spiritual experiences, leading to the belief that these plants had a divine or otherworldly power.
As civilizations grew, so did the complexity of their relationship with drugs. The Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all had distinct approaches to substances, incorporating them into everything from medicine to social rituals. The introduction of alcohol as a staple in religious ceremonies and social life further solidified the role of substances in the daily lives of these societies. At the same time, substances like opium were recognized for their medicinal value, setting the stage for the eventual development of the pharmaceutical industry.
