Sinopse

Mercury in Seafood unravels the complexities of mercury contamination in our food supply, focusing on the health risks associated with fish consumption. It highlights how industrial pollution and natural processes lead to mercury accumulation in aquatic ecosystems, transforming into methylmercury, which concentrates in larger fish. Understanding this process is crucial, as mercury exposure can lead to neurological and developmental issues, emphasizing the need for informed dietary choices. The book uniquely balances the nutritional benefits of seafood, such as omega-3 fatty acids, against the potential dangers of mercury poisoning.

 
The book begins by explaining the fundamentals of mercury chemistry and its journey through the environment. It then moves into the science of bioaccumulation, illustrating how mercury levels increase up the food chain. Subsequent chapters explore the health effects of methylmercury exposure, supported by research, and provide a guide to safer seafood selections. By presenting scientific data in an accessible way, Mercury in Seafood empowers readers to make informed decisions, understand government advisories, and appreciate the role of sustainable fishing.

    “I felt honoured to be involved in the production/proof reading of Simon’s 4th book, Parkinson’s - Take a Walk With Me. The book is written with humour on a subject which could very easily be melancholy, and whilst not avoiding the truth about this degenerative neurological condition, Simon takes you on a journey with earnest compassion. A great read for everyone, especially for anyone remotely connected to Parkinson’s Disease, this is an uplifting, supportive and reaffirming read; life is still to be enjoyed no matter what the adversity.” - Sharon Timms

    What is a delusion—and when does a fixed false belief become a disorder in its own right? Delusion Illness to Delusional Schizophrenia, Exploring Types and Characteristics offers the first comprehensive, integrative guide to delusional disorder, one of psychiatry’s most misunderstood conditions. Blending clinical expertise with lived experience, the book explores the full spectrum of delusion illness—from circumscribed paranoid beliefs to the overlap with delusional schizophrenia—and provides a clinical tour of the types of delusions that define this complex diagnosis.
     
    Drawing on best‑selling memoirs, pioneering research, and decades of clinical wisdom, this volume traces the history of diagnostic boundaries, from Kraepelin’s paranoia to today’s dimensional models. It details the characteristics of delusional disorder, including the non‑bizarre criterion, preserved functioning, and islands of insight, and offers practical guidance on pharmacotherapy, cognitive‑behavioral therapy, family intervention, and forensic considerations.
     
    Centering the voices of individuals like Elyn Saks and Esmé Weijun Wang, the book illuminates the terror, isolation, and hard‑won recovery of living with fixed false beliefs. It addresses families, cultural humility, and the ethical complexities of involuntary treatment—always returning to the person behind the delusion.
     
    For clinicians, trainees, families, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding, this book delivers rigorous science with deep humanity. Delusional disorder is real. But the person who holds it is always more.

    This book, a reprint of a successful English publication, has been so enlarged as to be to all intents and purposes new. It has been carefully revised by a Reverend gentleman, who for some time filled the chair of Physics and Chemistry in one of our colleges. Recent inventions and improvements are described in a simple, popular style, so as to be easily understood by all, and short notices are given of prominent inventors and scientists. The paragraphs relating to doctrinal matters conform in every respect to the teachings of the Church. A feature which will commend the book to every teacher is the definitions of difficult words and terms, following the paragraphs in which such words occur. (from the Preface)
