Resetting the Alarm - PTSD The...

Dr Murli Krishna

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is not a sign of weakness. It is a real condition rooted in how the nervous system responds to threat, trauma, and prolonged stress.
This audiobook offers a clear, compassionate, and evidence-informed explanation of PTSD through the lens of nervous system physiology. Designed for individuals with PTSD, their loved ones, clinicians, veterans, first responders, and anyone seeking understanding, it explains why symptoms such as hyperarousal, intrusive memories, emotional numbing, sleep disturbance, and physical tension can persist long after the original trauma has passed.
Drawing on clinical experience and current scientific understanding, the audiobook explores how trauma can lead to persistent activation of the body’s stress response system. These symptoms are described as real, involuntary, and biologically driven — protective in origin, not signs of personal failure or psychological weakness.
Current management approaches are discussed, including trauma-focused psychological therapies, medication, lifestyle strategies, and emerging biological interventions aimed at calming the nervous system. One such intervention explored is the stellate ganglion block (SGB), a targeted procedure acting on the sympathetic nervous system that has shown promising results in some individuals with PTSD, particularly in reducing hyperarousal, sleep disruption, and anxiety symptoms.
SGB is presented cautiously and responsibly — as a potential adjunct, not a cure. Responses vary between individuals, long-term data are still evolving, and recovery from PTSD is often gradual, non-linear, and multi-faceted. The aim of this audiobook is to reduce shame, provide clarity, set realistic expectations, and support informed conversations with healthcare providers.

Sauvage - My fight to end animal...

Jérôme Pensu

A passionate animal lover, Jérôme Pensu denounces the trafficking of wild animals in France, which is worth hundreds of millions of euros every year; he explains the mechanisms at play, the scale of the problem and the techniques used by criminals to make their business prosper; he points out, with specific cases to back it up, the incredible impunity enjoyed by fraudsters; and he lists a series of proposals to put an end, at last, to this scandal that endangers biodiversity - in other words, us.
Sauvage! tells of pink flamingos atrophied to enrich zoos, macaques sent to their deaths in the name of environmental preservation, reptiles tortured for the needs of unscrupulous pet shops. He also talks about massive laundering, unashamed regularization and euthanasia of felines... All wild animals are concerned. He also talks about concrete, precise, immediate solutions that could put a stop to this massacre. 
Because wildlife trafficking in France is not inevitable. It's up to each and every citizen to take part in the public debate to put an end to this scandal, which is almost as profitable as dealing hard drugs, and even more harmful in the long term for our planet and the human species. This book is also here to explain that anything is still possible, if citizens, families and children become aware of the uncontrolled traffic.
