Sinopsis

"Stress and Skin Health" explores the profound connection between psychological stress and various skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and hives. It highlights how stress, a prevalent factor in modern life, can trigger or worsen these issues through complex biological pathways.

 
One key insight is the role of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, which, when dysregulated by chronic stress, leads to elevated cortisol levels, negatively impacting skin health. The book also investigates how stress activates inflammatory responses, contributing to skin irritation and impaired barrier function.

 
The book takes a holistic approach, integrating knowledge from psychology, dermatology, and endocrinology to provide a comprehensive view of the mind-body connection. It progresses logically, beginning with the fundamentals of stress physiology and skin structure, then delving into specific mechanisms by which cortisol and inflammation affect different skin conditions.

 
Ultimately, "Stress and Skin Health" emphasizes stress management, providing practical techniques like mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy to improve both psychological well-being and skin health. This approach offers a unique perspective, shifting the focus from solely dermatological treatments to a more integrated approach.

Panzergrenadier Aces - German...

Franz Kurowski

This WWII history sheds light on the operations and combat experiences of Hitler’s “armored infantry”. As the foot soldiers who went into battle alongside the Third Reich’s fearsome tanks, the panzergrenadiers occupied a unique position in the German war machine. Whether in the Wehrmacht or Waffen-SS, these troops endured all the horrors of infantry combat—fighting hand-to-hand, storming enemy positions, and rescuing fallen comrades—but they did so in the shadow of thundering armored fighting vehicles like the Tiger and Panther.   In Panzergrenadier Aces, Franz Kurowski vividly recounts many of these soldier’s most dramatic stories, offering a rare window into their role in the larger conflict while bringing them and their actions to life.

Witness

Louise Milligan

From the best-selling author of Cardinal comes a searing examination of the power imbalance in our legal system - where exposing the truth is never guaranteed and, for victims, justice is often elusive.

A masterful and deeply troubling expose, Witness is the culmination of five years' research for award-winning investigative journalist Louise Milligan.
Throughout her career charting the experiences of people who have the courage to come forward to police and then look to find justice in court, Milligan has watched how witnesses are treated (or, too frequently, mistreated) in the courtroom. They have described to her how they relive the associated trauma, often years later. Then, she saw this first-hand when she became a witness and was cross-examined herself in the trial of the decade, R v George Pell.
Never-before-published court transcripts expose widespread systemic flaws. And through a combination of extraordinarily candid interviews with defence counsel, prosecutors and even judges, and the heartbreaking stories of witnesses in a number of high-profile cases, the brutal reality of the system is laid bare.
Revealing the devastating effects of an adversarial legal system that can be sexist, callous and too often weighted towards the rich and powerful, Milligan also highlights its failure to protect the wellbeing of the most vulnerable. In detailing these flaws and the ongoing human cost, Witness is a compelling call for change.
