Sinossi

The book "Placebo Effect" explores the fascinating intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and immunology to understand how our beliefs and expectations can trigger real physiological changes. It delves into the science behind the placebo effect, demonstrating how inert treatments can measurably improve a patient's condition simply because they believe it will work. One intriguing area explored is how placebo interventions can influence immune cell activity, illustrating the power of the mind-body connection. Another insight highlights how expectations can modulate brain activity, impacting pain modulation and emotional regulation. This book uniquely integrates findings from various fields to offer a comprehensive psychobiological model of the placebo effect, emphasizing the importance of patient-centered care. 

 
The book progresses by first defining the placebo effect and distinguishing it from other phenomena. Then it examines the neurobiological mechanisms and finally focuses on clinical applications and ethical considerations. By presenting detailed research and clinical applications, "Placebo Effect" challenges the traditional view of medicine and highlights the body's inherent capacity for self-healing.

Stalking the Great Killer -...

Larry C. Floyd, Joseph H. Bates

Stalking the Great Killer is the story of Arkansas's struggle to control tuberculosis, and how the state became a model in its treatment of the disease. 
 
 
 
To place the story of tuberculosis in Arkansas in historical perspective, the authors trace the origins of the disease. Arkansas suffered some of the worst ravages of the disease, and the authors argue that many of the improvements in the state's medical infrastructure grew out of the desperate need to control it. 
 
 
 
In the early twentieth century, Arkansas established a sanatorium and thirty years later, the segregated Black sanitorium. These institutions helped slow the disease but at a cost: removed from families and communities, patients suffered from the isolation. Joseph Bates saw this when he delivered an uncle to the sanitorium in the 1940s. In the 1960s, Bates, now a physician, and his colleague Paul Reagan overcame a resistant medical-political system to develop a new approach to treating the disease. 
 
 
 
In the age of Covid-19, this history offers valuable lessons about community involvement in public health, the potential efficacy of public-private partnerships, and the importance of leadership in the battle to eradicate disease.

Mysterious Ball Lightning - Also...

Martin K Ettington

Ball Lightning — one of nature’s most astonishing enigmas is a phenomena which definitely exists. One European study counted over 5,000 sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity of these weird balls. 
It also seems to be similar to old tales of the “Will O the Wisp” and World War Two Foo Fighters. 
St. Elmos Fire also has similar observations so data on this phenomenon that dazzles scientists, baffled yet intrigued and mystics alike are included too. 
There are many potential explanations but none are confirmed. Although most seem to appear around thunderstorms this is not always the case. 
My own belief is that these objects are controlled by some type of intelligence and we will discuss reasons for this later in the book. 
In this book you will read a lot of background information and sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity stories by persons for the last hundreds of years. 
This is just another mystery in our strange world which cries out for more investigation.
