Summary

"Addiction Science Facts" delivers a groundbreaking exploration of addiction through an integrated scientific approach, combining neuroscience, behavioral research, and environmental studies. The book revolutionizes our understanding of addiction by presenting it as a complex interplay of biological mechanisms, psychological factors, and environmental influences, moving beyond traditional single-dimensional explanations.

 
Through three comprehensive sections, the book first delves into addiction's neurobiological foundations, examining brain circuit modifications and genetic predispositions through cutting-edge neuroimaging studies. The narrative then transitions to psychological components, exploring how trauma and stress responses shape addictive behaviors, before concluding with an analysis of environmental factors that influence addiction patterns. This multifaceted approach provides readers with a thorough understanding of how various elements contribute to both addiction development and recovery.

 
What sets this work apart is its ability to translate complex scientific concepts into accessible language while maintaining academic rigor. The book incorporates practical applications throughout, featuring evidence-based recovery strategies that leverage neuroplasticity and psychological coping techniques. Healthcare professionals, counselors, and individuals seeking evidence-based information will find valuable insights into current addiction science, complete with discussions of emerging research areas like technological dependencies and new substance use patterns.

    Hear a recorded interview between Donald H. Kirkley and H.L. Mencken, American journalist, essayist, satirist, cultural critic, and scholar of American English. Henry Louis Mencken (September 12, 1880 - January 29, 1956) was an American journalist, essayist, satirist, cultural critic, and scholar of American English. He commented widely on the social scene, literature, music, prominent politicians, and contemporary movements. His satirical reporting on the Scopes Trial, which he dubbed the "Monkey Trial", also gained him attention. The term "Menckenian" has entered multiple dictionaries to describe anything of or pertaining to Mencken, including his combative rhetorical and prose style.

    Father Charles Coughlin was a controversial Canadian-American Catholic priest based in Michigan. Calling for monetary reforms, the nationalization of major industries and railroads, and protection of the rights of labor, Coughlin used weekly radio broadcasts to reach a mass audience of up to thirty million listeners during the 1930s. 
    An early supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal, Coughlin later became a harsh critic. Coughlin’s commentary also became more anti-semitic, and he supported some of the fascist policies of Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito. As a result, many American Catholic leaders, as well as the Vatican, wanted Coughlin silenced. After the outbreak of World War II in 1939, the Roosevelt administration finally forced the cancellation of his radio program and forbade the dissemination of his newspaper, Social Justice. 
    In this recording, Coughlin first discusses Franklin D. Roosevelt, and then the consequences of World War I twenty years after.

    Imagine a war without battlefields. There are no uniforms. Civilians and combatants are indistinguishable. Homes, schools, hospitals, and religious buildings are used as command and communication centers, and for the warehousing of weapons. Apartment rooftops are launching pads; the civilians who live inside . . . human shields. There are over 300 miles of reinforced tunnels, all outfitted with weapons and passageways for terrorists to take hostages and travel freely. 
     
     
     
    Beyond Proportionality examines Israel's battles against Hamas and Hezbollah under the laws of war and concludes that its wartime conduct was based on military necessity and fought justly. The targets are terrorists, weapons, and tunnels—not civilians. Israel relies upon verifiable intelligence, deploys precise weapons, and endangers its own soldiers in order to minimize civilian death. 
     
     
     
    The bombings over Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and Dresden, and the urban warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan, produced large numbers of civilian dead that were not considered acts of genocide; the war in Gaza was no different.

    Foreword by Dr Andy Daly-Smith.
    We already know that increased physical activity and a reduction in the sedentary time spent sitting at desks have wide-ranging benefits (including to brain function), so what if there were also evidence that using movement in the learning process improves outcomes for children? What if we could then map out ways to support teachers in adapting their practice to make this a reality?
    In How to Move & Learn Bryn Llewellyn, Ian Holmes and Richard Allman do just that - sharing the latest research from around the world and providing teachers with the means and motivation to identify opportunities to integrate movement purposefully into the teaching and learning process.
    The links between health and education are paramount, and this book explores these connections and presents a wealth of ideas, activities and resources to help teachers unlock the potential of the school and outdoor environments for learning across all curriculum subjects.
    Suitable for all primary school teachers and leaders.
