    In Saving Normal, Allen Frances, one of the world's most influential psychiatrists, warns that mislabeling everyday problems as mental illness has shocking implications for individuals and society: stigmatizing a healthy person as mentally ill leads to unnecessary, harmful medications, the narrowing of horizons, misallocation of medical resources, and draining of the budgets of families and the nation. We also shift responsibility for our mental well-being away from our own naturally resilient and self-healing brains, which have kept us sane for hundreds of thousands of years, and into the hands of "Big Pharma," who are reaping multi-billion-dollar profits. 
    Masterfully charting the history of psychiatric fads throughout history, Frances argues that whenever we arbitrarily label another aspect of the human condition a "disease," we further chip away at our human adaptability and diversity, dulling the full palette of what is normal and losing something fundamental of ourselves in the process. Saving Normal is a call to all of us to reclaim the full measure of our humanity.

    This volume covering North Carolina’s Civil War–era flags tells the story of the Confederate State through its banners of pride, battle, and rebellion. Throughout the 1860s, the Confederate State of North Carolina flew scores of flags over its government, cavalry, and navy. Symbolizing the way of life those men sought to protect, these flags provide a unique index to the history of the Civil War in this southern coastal state.  This comprehensive study of North Carolina’s Civil War–era flags presents a wide-ranging collection of these banners, along with information on their origins and meanings. From the flags of the Guilford Greys to the Buncombe Riflemen, this collection is a fascinating portrait of the state’s ill-fated battle for independence.
