Sinopse

Mountain Altitude Sickness explores the science behind the dangers of high-altitude climbing, focusing on the physiological challenges of reduced oxygen. It explains how even experienced athletes can develop altitude sickness, covering topics like hypoxia and acclimatization. The book uniquely bridges scientific research with practical advice, making complex biological concepts accessible to both climbers and medical professionals. Did you know the body attempts to compensate for lower oxygen through increased respiration and heart rate? Or that high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) and high-altitude cerebral edema (HACE) are severe forms of altitude sickness? The book progresses logically, first laying the physiological groundwork of altitude adaptation. It then examines various forms of altitude sickness, from acute mountain sickness (AMS) to the more dangerous HAPE and HACE, detailing symptoms and treatments. Finally, it offers strategies for acclimatization, from staged ascents to pharmacological interventions, providing a comprehensive guide for prevention and management. This approach, supported by studies and research, makes the book valuable for anyone venturing into high-altitude environments.

    This fact-pact and enlightening book covers everything kids need to know about becoming a vet. It also gives a realistic view of what daily life is like as a vet - the challenges and triumphs. 
    My name is Susanna Lee and recently my daughter Monica, who has a passion for animals, asked me to help her find information on becoming a vet. Surprisingly, I couldn’t find a book that contains up-to-date information and gives a real insight into what it takes to become a vet. 
    Most importantly, I wanted my daughter to be able to decide for herself if veterinary medicine was truly the career for her based on getting the most rounded picture possible - the good, the bad and everything in between. 
    So being a journalist and writer for over 20 years, I took up the challenge to create that missing book! 
    In How to Become a Veterinarian, I share the latest practical information available, but also offer a human perspective on life as a vet and what it’s really like to work towards that goal.

    ✅ A History Of Veterinary Practice

    Sleep better with hypnosis

    Who is this hypnosis for:- If you have difficulty falling asleep- or you wake up frequently over the night- or your sleep is simply not restful enough- or you can sleep only with medication and would like a more natural solution… this hypnosis will help.This hypnosis is an easy, gentle way to prepare for falling asleep. At the same time, it will help you experience a deep, restful, regenerating sleep.How it works:So many of us are affected these days by sleeping troubles.Unfortunately, this is bound to be: our world is fast, overloaded with information and constantly stimulated by screens. Thus, our brains are overly activated and less acquainted with the state of non-activity.This "monkey mind" is what keeps us away from a good sleep. Over the night, our brains keep on being busy solving problems. Moreover, our bodies cannot have a good, regenerative rest either – did you notice how an agitated mind matches and agitated body?Fortunately, methods based on hypnosis are very effective.While in themselves, they are very relaxing (4 time stronger than sleep), when specific suggestions for taking a break from thoughts and slipping into a profound, regenerative sleep are added, our mind and body finally gets the break it needs.This is what this 28 min hypnosis does.Play it after you have already laid down in bed and found a comfortable position so that you can easily fall asleep during it or after it ends.My recommendation is to use it for 3 days in a row and feel if it works for you. If it does, continue. The more you do it, the easier it will become for you to relax and fall asleep.Disclaimer:The products sold here do not replace medical or psychological therapy. Please take your time when listening to the audio downloads and stop doing anything else that might distract you, e.g., don't use them while working or driving a car.ENJOY!Yours Dr. Nidal MoughrabiMedical doctor · Coach for mental self-regulation · HypnotherapistInner stability for stress, anxiety and personal crises

    A Pedagogy of Kindness

    Academia is not, by and large, a kind place. Individualism and competition are what count. But without kindness at its core, Catherine Denial suggests, higher education fails students and instructors—and its mission—in critical ways. 
     
     
     
    Part manifesto, part teaching memoir, part how-to guide, A Pedagogy of Kindness urges higher education to get aggressive about instituting kindness, which Denial distinguishes from niceness. Having suffered beneath the weight of just "getting along," instructors need to shift every part of what they do to prioritizing care and compassion—for students as well as for themselves. 
     
     
     
    A Pedagogy of Kindness articulates a fresh vision for teaching, one that focuses on ensuring justice, believing people, and believing in people. Offering evidence-based insights and drawing from her own rich experiences as a professor, Denial offers practical tips for reshaping syllabi, assessing student performance, and creating trust and belonging in the classroom. Her suggestions for concrete, scalable actions  outline nothing less than a transformational discipline—one in which, together, we create bright new spaces, rooted in compassion, in which all engaged in teaching and learning might thrive.
