  In this powerful debut, Rebecca Dimyan details her experience with endometriosis, a chronic disease which effects one in ten women worldwide. This painful condition takes an average of seven years to be diagnosed and has no proven cure. Most women will undergo multiple surgeries, take countless painkillers and other drugs, and will still endure regular pain and other complications. With honesty, vulnerability, and sometimes humor, Dimyan explores the ways the condition has impacted her experiences, her body, her pain, and her joy. She takes her audience on an emotional journey through her teenage years, early twenties, and into her thirties as she becomes a professional woman, wife, and mother. Dimyan blends research, anecdotes, and advice as she shares the relief she's found through alternative treatments and holistic medicine. Chronic isn't just a story about one woman's illness—it is a memoir about all the pain, pleasure, heartbreak, friendship, love, and hope she experiences on her path to healing.

  Jim Morrison, the enigmatic frontman of the iconic rock band The Doors, lived a life filled with artistic expression, rebellion, and introspection. Born in 1943, Morrison's raw talent as a singer, songwriter, and poet was matched only by his charismatic stage presence and unconventional lifestyle. His music, poetry, and provocative persona continue to captivate audiences, making him an enduring figure in rock and roll history. 
   
  Morrison's legacy lies in his ability to push boundaries and challenge societal norms through his art. As the lyricist and vocalist of The Doors, he explored themes of love, darkness, freedom, and the human condition with profound intensity. Songs like "Light My Fire," "Break On Through (To the Other Side)," and "Riders on the Storm" showcased Morrison's poetic prowess and his willingness to delve into the depths of the human psyche. His performances were characterized by a raw, uninhibited energy that captivated audiences, establishing him as one of rock's most iconic and controversial figures. 
  In addition to his music, Morrison's poetry and writings reflected his profound introspection and artistic vision. He published two collections of poetry, "The Lords and the New Creatures" and "An American Prayer," which revealed his talent for blending vivid imagery, introspective musings, and social commentary. Morrison's exploration of themes such as identity, mortality, and spirituality added depth to his artistry and provided insight into his complex worldview. 
   
  Jim Morrison's life was cut tragically short when he passed away at the age of 27, joining the infamous "27 Club" alongside other legendary musicians. However, his impact on music, poetry, and the counterculture of the 1960s continues to resonate.

  Philosophies of Language and...

  This book bundle contains the following three titles:  
  - Derrida: Jacques Derrida, one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century, revolutionized the way we think about language, meaning, and interpretation. His development of the concept of deconstruction has left a profound impact on philosophy, literary theory, and critical thought. To understand Derrida's legacy, it is essential to explore the key elements of his intellectual journey and how his ideas continue to shape contemporary discourse. 
  - Deconstructionism: Deconstructionism emerged in the late 20th century as a philosophical and literary movement that fundamentally questioned the nature of meaning, language, and interpretation. It is primarily associated with the work of French philosopher Jacques Derrida, who, in the 1960s and 1970s, began to develop ideas that would challenge long-held assumptions in philosophy, literary theory, and critical thought. The movement was a response to structuralism, which sought to uncover the underlying structures that govern language and society. In contrast, deconstruction aimed to show that meaning is inherently unstable and that texts and concepts can never be fully fixed or understood in a singular, unchanging way. 
  - Michel Foucault: Michel Foucault, a French philosopher, historian, and social theorist, is renowned for his critical exploration of power, knowledge, and social institutions. Born in 1926, Foucault’s work spans a range of disciplines, from philosophy to sociology, psychology, and political science. His intellectual journey reflects a unique approach to understanding human societies, focusing not on abstract metaphysical systems but on the structures that shape human behavior, knowledge, and institutions.
