Sinossi

"Raven Prophets" explores the deep-seated connections between ravens, other birds, and human understanding of prophecy, mortality, and knowledge across cultures and history. It examines how these avian creatures have shaped our spiritual and intellectual landscapes, diving into the confluence of science, mythology, and literature.

 
A key insight reveals how birds have been used in divination, with ancient Roman augurs interpreting flight patterns and Norse legends featuring Odin's ravens, Huginn and Muninn, as conduits to the divine. Furthermore, the book uncovers the pervasive association of ravens with death, exploring their role as psychopomps or symbols of decay and transformation in various cultures.

 
This study uniquely blends scientific research, including ornithology, with historical accounts and anthropological studies to trace the evolution of avian symbolism. The book's approach progresses from introducing core concepts of bird symbolism to examining specific topics such as avian divination, the raven's role in death rituals, and the portrayal of birds as symbols of knowledge.

 
By examining folklore, literature, and art, "Raven Prophets" argues that the enduring presence of birds in our stories reflects our need to find meaning in the natural world, offering insights into human cognition and cultural development.

    Scalpels, Egos, Libidos. Is anybody in this hospital under control? 
    In surgery, every cut changes a body forever. But what do you really know about the person holding the knife? Are their bodies betraying them and their desires distracting them? Does doubt haunt them and pride destroy them? 
    This is the story of the surgeons who stole a leg and saved a life. They are  the ones falling apart in the tearoom afterwards. The aging consultant who can feel his hands betraying him. The single mother questioning every 
    cut she's ever made. The brilliant surgeon whose ego writes cheques 
    his marriage can't cash. The trainee left holding the blame when a surgeon decides his reputation matters more than the truth. Two women torn apart by a lascivious outsider. And a woman who holds them all together.

    Medically unexplained symptoms account for 40 percent of primary care visits in the United States, yet a "biological" cause is discovered only 25 percent of the time, leaving both patients and their providers frustrated.People who experience medically unexplained symptoms often feel unheard, marginalized, or even dismissed by their medical providers. Physicians strive to help people, yet the difficulty they face trying to determine the causes of symptoms that do not easily fit into neat diagnostic boxes can lead to frustration and helplessness. Diagnosing cases of medically unexplained symptoms can lead to an overuse of an already overburdened health system as patients are referred from one specialist to another in an attempt to find answers to their puzzling constellations of symptoms.Dr. Susan Trachman, a specialist in psychosomatic medicine and the writer of the immensely popular Psychology Today blog It's Not Just in Your Head, has seen firsthand her patients' frustration. Her book, It's Not Just in Your Head, goes in depth and offers answers and workable solutions by teaching listeners about different types of symptoms and how to explain them. Divided into major illness groups, this book will empower listeners to be their own Sherlock Holmes by giving them the tools they need.
