Synopsis

Cold Turkey Risks explores the serious dangers of abruptly stopping addictive substances without medical supervision. It highlights the importance of understanding withdrawal symptoms and the need for medically supervised detoxification to minimize potentially life-threatening risks like seizures or delirium tremens. The book explains how addiction is now understood as a complex brain disorder, a shift from earlier views that saw it as a moral failing.

 
This comprehensive guide examines the risks associated with unsupervised withdrawal from substances like alcohol, opioids, and benzodiazepines, detailing the physiological and psychological symptoms that can arise. It emphasizes that willpower alone is often insufficient and advocates for harm reduction through medical oversight.

 
Cold Turkey Risks presents evidence from clinical trials and neurobiological research, illustrating the consequences of unsupervised withdrawal with real-world examples. The book progresses systematically, starting with core concepts of addiction and dependence, then examining the specific dangers of unsupervised withdrawal. It concludes by focusing on medically supervised detoxification, including assessment procedures and medication-assisted treatment, and addresses the unique needs of special populations.

 
This balanced approach offers a nuanced perspective on addiction treatment, making it a valuable resource for individuals, families, and healthcare professionals seeking informed decisions about addiction and health and fitness.

    Building on the foundation laid by Moshe Feldenkrais, Thomas Hanna's groundbreaking work completely redefines the body's potential for withstanding decline. His gentle program for the mind and body proves once and for all that so many problems we accept as inevitable over time -- chronic stiffness, bad back, chronic pain, fatigue, and, at times, even high blood pressure -- need never occur if we maintain conscious control of nerve and muscle, replacing Sensory-Motor Amnesia  with Sensory-Motor Awareness. The good news of Somatic Exercise is that most people simply do not have to become captives of age or injury. Once learned, this lifelong program can help almost anyone maintain the pleasures of a supple, healthy body indefinitely, with only a five-minute routine once a day.

    From the author of the critically-acclaimed true crime account, A Killer By Design (the inspiration behind Hulu's original docuseries, Mastermind), a groundbreaking look into the crucial role played by expert witnesses in the most high-profile criminal cases, based on Dr. Ann Burgess’ personal experiences within the criminal justice system.  Written through Burgess’ singular lens of compassion and lived experience, Expert Witness pulls back the curtain on some of the biggest cases in the last thirty years—from Bill Cosby to the Menendez brothers to Larry Nassar—to reveal the deeply human stories behind the trials that have captivated a nation. The book explores the role of expert witnesses in high stakes court cases, offering first-hand accounts and never-before-seen interviews with attorneys, victims, and offenders. Expert Witness places readers inside the mind of the nation’s most prominent courtroom expert, following Burgess as she takes on one seismic case after the next. Throughout the narrative, each case deepens the reader’s understanding of the art and science of expert testimony, taking readers from the women’s movement of the 1970s to the #MeToo movement of today—one of the largest social reckonings in recent history. At its core, Expert Witness is a story of empowerment. It’s a story of compassion and the ever-increasing need for individuals to stand up and speak truth to power or to popular opinion. And it's ultimately a story of how revolutionary one voice can be.
