Etika a komunikace v medicině


Kniha představuje výběr 25 nejzávažnějších textů z monografií na téma Etika a komunikace v medicíně, které vycházely v nakladatelství Grada v letech 2011–2024 v návaznosti na stejnojmenný cyklus konferencí České lékařské komory. Každá z konferencí/monografií byla vždy zaměřena na konkrétní, užší téma, například na vztah lékaře a pacienta, lege artis v medicíně, eutanazii, spravedlnost, soucit, naději, důstojnost či bolest v medicíně. Celý projekt konferencí/monografií byl realizován v rámci celoživotního vzdělávání lékařů z iniciativy prof. PhDr. et PhDr. Radka Ptáčka, Ph.D., MBA. Publikace je rozdělena na tři oddíly: Aspekty lékařské etiky, Aspekty komunikace v medicíně a Právní aspekty. Na textech se podílelo 22 autorů – etiků, filozofů, teologů, psychologů, právníků a lékařů. Většina z nich své příspěvky pro potřeby této nové publikace revidovala a aktualizovala. Vícečetné zastoupení textů prof. Radka Ptáčka pak odráží mimořádný přínos zakladatele edice a cyklu konferencí Etika a komunikace v medicíně této problematice, kterou by si měl osvojit každý lékař.

Sensory Pathways to Healing from Trauma


This forward-thinking book explores the impact of psychological trauma on the brain's sensory pathways and demonstrates the crucial role sensory-based interventions can play in recovery. Ruth A. Lanius and associates interweave neurobiological research with evocative case examples and narratives from survivors. The book shines a spotlight on the brain–body disconnect that is part of the lived experience of trauma, and traces what happens in all eight sensory systems when an individual is under threat. Featuring "Bridging to Practice" sections in each chapter, the book reveals how working with sensory pathways can engage the whole brain, promote neuroplasticity, and optimize the effectiveness of standard psychotherapies. Illustrations include eight pages in full color.

The Freedom of Words


The Freedom of Words is for anyone interested in understanding the role of body and language in cognition and how humans developed the sophisticated ability to use abstract concepts like 'freedom' and 'thinking'. This volume adopts a transdisciplinary perspective, including philosophy, semiotics, psychology, and neuroscience, to show how language, as a tool, shapes our minds and influences our interaction with the physical and social environment. It develops a theory showing how abstract concepts in their different varieties enhance cognition and profoundly influence our social and affective life. It addresses how children learn such abstract concepts, details how they vary across languages and cultures, and outlines the link between abstractness and the capability to detect inner bodily signals. Overall, the book shows how words – abstract words in particular, because of their indeterminate and open character – grant us freedom.

The Great Nerve


Your health and happiness depend on a bundle of 200,000 nerve fibres that holds the secrets to life itself 'Comprehensive and compelling' - New Scientist 'The Great Nerve is altogether a masterpiece and a timeless document for those who want to see what science is all about: faith, focus, patience and hard work' Wim Hof, bestselling author of The Wim Hof Method ___________ The vagus nerve is often referred to as the 'superhighway' which connects every organ of the body to the brain, and vice versa, but it is so much more than just traffic. The 'great nerve' vibrates in tune with your health like the instruments of an orchestra: when your vagus nerve is healthy, so are you. When it isn't, you experience everything from poor sleep to low mood, pain, suffering and chronic illness. Recent scientific developments, including Dr Kevin Tracey's research showing how the vagus nerve is linked to the immune system, have brought the nerve to the attention of everyone from neuroscientists to TikTok influencers. In The Great Nerve Dr Tracey shares the science of how the vagus nerve operates to regulate our health, how we can help it, and the truth behind popular 'vagus nerve stimulating' strategies such as ice baths, meditation, exercise and breathwork. He reveals the extraordinary new science that promises to revolutionise healthcare, where computer chips may regulate your blood sugar, and electrical implants may replace your medications forever. Trailblazing vagus nerve stimulation therapy, pioneered by Dr Tracey, is demonstrating potential to reverse life-altering diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, lupus, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, obesity, stroke, depression, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. The Great Nerve not only revolutionises how we will understand and treat disease, it gives us unprecedented hope for our health.

Mechanisms of Change and Creativity in Nature and Culture


This Element is about change. Specifically, it''s about the underlying mechanisms that cause change to happen, both in nature and in culture; what types there are, how they work, where they can be found, and when they come into play. The ultimate aim is to shed light on two barbed issues. First, what kind of system of change is culture and, second, what kind of change in that system counts as creativity; that is, what are the properties of the mechanisms of change when we explore unknown regions of the cultural realm. To that end, a novel theoretical framework is proposed that is based on the concept of a sightedness continuum. A sightedness framework for the mechanisms of change can integrate the three mechanisms causing gradual, adaptive, and cumulative change ? evolution, learning, and development ? into a single dimension and provide a clear view of how they cause change.
