Beschreibung

Brain Chemistry explores the biological basis of addiction, revealing how addictive substances fundamentally alter neural pathways and impair rational decision-making. Addiction isn't simply a matter of willpower; instead, it's a complex interplay of biological vulnerabilities and environmental influences that rewire the brain. Understanding the brain's reward system, including the roles of dopamine and serotonin, is crucial for comprehending addiction. The book delves into the neurochemical changes caused by addictive substances, the impairment of cognitive functions like impulse control and risk assessment, and the long-term effects on brain structure and function.

 
It progresses by first introducing basic principles of brain chemistry, followed by sections focused on specific neurochemical changes, cognitive impairments, and structural changes. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of how addiction impacts the brain.

 
This book is unique in its accessible yet rigorous exploration of addiction's neurobiology, bridging biology, psychology, and social science. It integrates molecular-level details with cognitive and behavioral manifestations, offering valuable insights for students, healthcare professionals, and anyone seeking to understand the science behind addiction.

    Perhaps you have heard about Gilgamesh, or perhaps you know what he was but would like to know more about him. 
    Gilgamesh was an age-old Mesopotamian hero and the lead character of the Impressive of Gilgamesh, a legendary poem written in Akkadian throughout the late 2nd millennium BC. He could have been a posthumously deified historic emperor of the Sumerian city-state of Uruk. Despite the fact that he ended up being a crucial figure in Sumerian legend throughout the Third Dynasty of Ur (from 2112 to 2004 BC), his rule was more than likely throughout the start of the Early Dynastic Period (Mesopotamia) (henceforth ED), from 2900 to 2350 BC. 
    Gilgamesh's famous deeds are stated in 5 Sumerian poems that have endured. The earliest of these is most likely "Gilgamesh, Enkidu, and the Netherworld," in which Gilgamesh saves the goddess Inanna from the satanic forces that have plagued her huluppu tree. 
    These stories were later weaved into a meaningful story in Babylonian times.

    A lively collection of essays that re-examines the extraordinary legacies of the four Canadian women who dominated ’90s music and changed the industry forever
    		 
    Fully revised and updated, with a foreword by Vivek Shraya
    		 
    “A fascinating, fun, and infuriating read.” — Tegan Quin, Tegan and Sara 
    		 
    In this of-the-moment essay collection, celebrated music journalist Andrea Warner explores the ways in which Céline Dion, Shania Twain, Alanis Morissette, and Sarah McLachlan became bonafide global superstars while revolutionizing ’90s music. In an era when male-fronted musical acts dominated radio and were given serious critical consideration, these four women were reduced, mocked, and disparaged by the media and became pop culture jokes, even as their albums were topping the charts and demolishing sales records.
    		 
    With empathy, humor, and reflections on her own teenaged perceptions of Céline, Shania, Alanis, and Sarah, Andrea offers us a revised and expanded edition of her 2015 book, providing a new perspective on the legacies of the four Canadian women who dominated the ’90s airwaves and influenced an entire generation of current day popstars with their voices, fashion, and advocacy. As the world is now reconsidering the treatment and reputations of key women in ’90s entertainment, We Oughta Know is definitively entering the chat.

    As complex in their own way as their Mitford cousins, Winston and Clementine Churchill’s daughters each had a unique relationship with their famous father. Rachel Trethewey's biography, The Churchill Sisters, tells their story.Bright, attractive and well-connected, in any other family the Churchill girls – Diana, Sarah, Marigold and Mary – would have shone. But they were not in another family, they were Churchills, and neither they nor anyone else could ever forget it. From their father – ‘the greatest Englishman’ – to their brother, golden boy Randolph, to their eccentric and exciting cousins, the Mitford Girls, they were surrounded by a clan of larger-than-life characters which often saw them overlooked. While Marigold died too young to achieve her potential, the other daughters lived lives full of passion, drama and tragedy.Diana, intense and diffident; Sarah, glamorous and stubborn; Mary, dependable yet determined – each so different but each imbued with a sense of responsibility toward each other and their country. Far from being cosseted debutantes, these women were eyewitnesses at some of the most important events in world history, at Tehran, Yalta and Potsdam. Yet this is not a story set on the battlefields or in Parliament; it is an intimate saga that sheds light on the complex dynamics of family set against the backdrop of a tumultuous century.Drawing on previously unpublished family letters from the Churchill archives, The Churchill Sisters brings Winston’s daughters out of the shadows and tells their remarkable stories for the first time.
