Sinossi

Germs Everywhere explores the microscopic world of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa, detailing how these infectious diseases impact our health. The book highlights the critical role of hygiene and the immune system in disease prevention. Did you know that understanding germs can be traced back to a shift from the miasma theory to germ theory, revolutionizing our understanding of illness? Or that something as simple as handwashing can drastically reduce the spread of infections? The book uniquely emphasizes practical applications, providing actionable insights for personal and public health.

 
It progresses by first introducing different types of germs and their transmission methods. Then it focuses on the historical significance and science-backed effectiveness of handwashing. Finally, it delves into the innate and adaptive responses of our immune system. By integrating scientific studies and expert consensus from microbiology, immunology, and public health, Germs Everywhere empowers readers with the knowledge to make informed decisions. It's designed for anyone interested in understanding the science behind staying healthy in a world teeming with unseen microbes.

    The fascinating—and often secret—history of the body's most fascinating system: the gut. 
     
     
     
    The stomach is notoriously outspoken. It growls, gurgles, and grumbles while other organs remain silent, inconspicuous, and content. For centuries humans have puzzled over this rowdy organ, deliberating on the extent of its influence over cognition, mental wellbeing, and emotions, and wondering how the gut became so central to our sense of self. 
     
     
     
    Traveling from ancient Greece to Victorian England, eighteenth-century France to modern America, historian Elsa Richardson leads us on a tour of the gut, exploring all the ways that we have imagined, theorized, and probed the mysteries of the gastroenterological system. We'll meet a diverse cast of characters including Edwardian body builders, hunger-striking suffragettes, demons, medieval alchemists, and one poor teenage girl plagued by a remarkably vocal gut, all united by this singular organ. 
     
     
     
    Engaging, eye-opening, and thought-provoking, Rumbles leaves no stone unturned, scrutinizing religious tracts and etiquette guides, satirical cartoons and political pamphlets, in its quest to answer the millennia-old question: Are we really ruled by our stomachs?

    A myth-busting guide on testosterone from leading male health expert Dr Jeff Foster to help men feel stronger, healthier, and get back to their best selves. 
    Testosterone: it’s a powerhouse hormone that fuels men’s energy, focus, mood, and vitality at every age. Yet despite its importance, testosterone is surrounded by confusion, stigma, and half-truths. 
    In this accessible, myth-busting guide, leading expert in male health Dr Jeff Foster sets the record straight. Drawing on years of clinical experience as an NHS GP Partner and a Private GP with a specialist interest in men's health, he explains how testosterone really works; why deficiency is far more common than most people think, and how it can impact everything from sleep to mental health, strength to sex, and overall wellbeing. 
    Learn how to spot the signs of low testosterone; what modern treatments can (and can’t) do, and why looking after your hormone health is one of the best investments you can make for your future. 
    Testosterone is not simply about muscles and libido. It’s about health, confidence, and living life to the fullest.

    In A NATION OF SHEEP, Judge Andrew P. Napolitano frankly discusses how the federal government has circumvented the Constitution and is systematically dismantling the rights and freedoms that are the foundation of American democracy.  He challenges Americans to recognize that they are being led down a very dangerous path and that the cost of following without challenge is the loss of the basic freedoms that facilitate our pursuit of happiness and that define us as a nation.Judge Napolitano reminds readers what America is all about, that the purpose of government is to protect freedom, and freedom is the ability to follow your own free will and not the will of government bureaucrats.  He asks the simple question, which are YOU, a sheep or a wolf?  Do you blindly follow behind where you are led, or do you challenge the government at every pass, forcing it to make decisions that will protect our freedoms? 
    Judge Napolitano asks the questions that no one else will, challenging readers to rethink why they are blindly following a government that has only its own interests in mind.  He asks:Why is the government using the war on terror as an excuse to sidestep the Constitution?Why are Americans not challenging and questioning the government as it continues to limit more and more of our freedoms?What part of "Congress shall make no law..." does the government not understand when it criminalizes speech?Whatever happened to our inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that are proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence, guaranteed by the Constitution, yet ignored by the governments elected to protect them?Why does every public office holder swear allegiance to the Constitution, yet very few follow it?Don't we have rights that are guaranteed and cannot be taken from us?

  • Marginalized Couples in Therapy - Interventions for Healing from Systemic Trauma - cover

    Marginalized Couples in Therapy...

    BIPOC and LGBTQI relationships have unique needs because minority stress, racialized trauma, and transphobia, homophobia, and biphobia can compromise one's ability to feel safe enough to connect to the world and others. Yet, all too often, marginalized couples are let down by conventional therapeutic models which were designed for white, cisgendered, heterosexual clients. 
     
    This book puts forth an innovative therapeutic approach specifically designed for working with the impact of systemic oppression in couples therapy. Divided into three parts, therapists will explore systemic trauma, discover ways to build transformative therapeutic postures via the BIOME and PRIDE models, and make use of actionable methods to support clients. By practicing critical consciousness, prioritizing the lived experiences of clients, and moving delicately through the imbalance of power inherent in the therapeutic relationship, clinicians will gain a better understanding of their clients' intimate relationship experiences, and how best to serve them. 
     
    Practitioners are invited to become active agents of change, making this not only a practical guide but also a call to action for fostering a more just and equitable world in which intimacy flourishes for all.
