Fashion After Fifty - A Guide to...

Kaaren Hale

The trouble with being over fifty is that everything starts to change. By sixty, gravity has started to pull hard and by seventy there is an urgent need to cover up some of the wobbly bits. The female ageing process has not been helped by society’s worship of youth and airbrushed beauty. Yet despite the youth-obsessed society of which the fashion industry is only one reflection, women continue to need to feel good about themselves, to nurture their self-confidence; to re-educate themselves about what works and why, to seek new doyennes of style and to retain beauty that is attainable past the first blush of youth.
In this timely new edition of her tongue-in-cheek look at the fashion world, Kaaren Hale gives us her take on the industry and how to confidently find your own style in an ever-changing and confusing landscape.The women of her generation are the product of the conservative Fifties, the Swinging Sixties, the boom-boom Eighties and sober Nineties. They have enjoyed many heydays and aren’t ready to give up just yet. So why is it that the fashion industry, with few exceptions, directs all its ideas to the very young?
Although the lack of style mentors and fashion choices is disheartening, women do not have to fill their wardrobes with dreary clothes, insensitive to the high-spirited girl inside them who still craves fashion adventure. They may not have Donna Karan to guide them personally through the minefield of middle age, but they can learn from their peers who already know how to do it – and enjoy the ride. This is a book for a generation of women that has done it all, seen it all and still wants to look – and feel – good.

Affective Neuroscience - The...

Jaak Panksepp

Some investigators have argued that emotions, especially animal emotions, are illusory concepts outside the realm of scientific inquiry. However, with advances in neurobiology and neuroscience, researchers are demonstrating that this position is wrong as they move closer to a lasting understanding of the biology and psychology of emotion. In Affective Neuroscience, Jaak Panksepp provides the most up-to-date information about the brain-operating systems that organize the fundamental emotional tendencies of all mammals. Presenting complex material in a readable manner, the book offers a comprehensive summary of the fundamental neural sources of human and animal feelings, as well as a conceptual framework for studying emotional systems of the brain. Panksepp approaches emotions from the perspective of basic emotion theory but does not fail to address the complex issues raised by constructionist approaches. These issues include relations to human consciousness and the psychiatric implications of this knowledge. The book includes chapters on sleep and arousal, pleasure and fear systems, the sources of rage and anger, and the neural control of sexuality, as well as the more subtle emotions related to maternal care, social loss, and playfulness. Representing a synthetic integration of vast amounts of neurobehavioral knowledge, including relevant neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neurochemistry, this book will be one of the most important contributions to understanding the biology of emotions since Darwin's The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals.
