Sinossi

A Buddhist Bible is a book by Dwight Goddard, first published in 1932. A cherished book among the Beat writers, especially Jack Kerouac, the book played a significant role in the spread of Buddhism in the English-speaking world throughout the 20th century. In this initial edition, focused primarily on source documents of Zen Buddhism, Goddard skillfully compiled the finest available translations of essential texts and conducted extensive edits to eliminate repetitive passages and extraneous material. Consequently, this edition is designed for readers rather than scholars, yet it faithfully preserves the profound message of the sutras, if not amplifies it.

    The concept of personality disorders rose to prominence in the early twentieth century and has consistently caused controversy among psychiatrists, psychologists, and social scientists. In Personality Disorders, Allan V. Horwitz traces the evolution of defining these disorders and the historical dilemmas of attempting to mold them into traditional medical conceptions of disorder. 
     
     
     
    Using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or DSM, as a guide, Horwitz explores the group of conditions that make up personality disorders and considers when they have been tied to or separated from other types of mental illnesses. He also examines how these disorders have often entailed negative moral and cultural evaluations more focused on perceived social deviance than on actual medical conditions. 
     
     
     
    Deep conflicts exist in a variety of disciplines in determining the nature of these disorders. During the twentieth century, a particularly sharp division arose between researchers who study personality disorders and the clinicians who treat them. Synthesizing historical and contemporary scholarship, Horwitz examines controversies over the definitions and diagnoses of personality disorders and how the perception of these illnesses has changed over time.

    This book is an honest examination of the estrangement epidemic—one that’s not about parents begging to be included, but about stepping away with dignity, self-respect, and the strength to move forward. 
    In a culture where parents have become disposable, where love is one-sided, and where parents are bullied into silence by therapy jargon and online echo chambers, this book offers a necessary course correction. 
    If you’re a parent who has been ghosted, scapegoated, or quietly erased by your adult child, you’re not alone—and you’re not crazy. You are not the villain, despite what modern therapy culture or social media influencers may suggest. 
    In F*ck Them Kids, Vivian King, PhD challenges the one-sided narrative driving today’s estrangement epidemic and exposes the biased therapy trends that keep loving, well-intentioned parents trapped in cycles of guilt, shame, and self-blame. Blending evidence-based research with personal insight and lived experience, this book is a lifeline for parents who are ready to stop chasing, stop apologizing, and start taking back their power. 
    Compassionate, and deeply validating, F*ck Them Kids breaks the silence around a growing cultural crisis. Your voice matters. Your story matters.
