The Age of Diagnosis
***THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER***A RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK A BEST BOOK OF 2025 IN THE TIMES, FINANCIAL TIMES, GUARDIAN, LONDON STANDARD, NEW STATESMAN AND IRISH TIMES ''Covers so many topics that have been troubling me but I hadn''t been able to resolve myself - as a parent and a clinician. An absolutely absorbing read'' - CHRIS VAN TULLEKEN''A brilliant study of the dangers of overdiagnosis'' - GUARDIAN''Compassionate and bracingly independent thinking'' - THE TIMESFrom autism to allergies, ADHD to long Covid, more people are being labelled with medical conditions than ever before. But can a diagnosis do us more harm than good? The boundaries between sickness and health are being redrawn. Mental health categories are shifting and expanding all the time, radically altering what we consider to be ''normal''. Genetic tests can now detect pathologies decades before people experience symptoms, and sometimes before they''re even born. And increased health screening draws more and more people into believing they are unwell.An accurate diagnosis can bring greater understanding and of course improved treatment. But many diagnoses aren''t as definitive as we think. And in some cases they risk turning healthy people into patients.Drawing on the stories of real people, as well as decades of clinical practice and the latest medical research, Dr Suzanne O''Sullivan overturns long held assumptions and reframes how we think about illness and health.*As heard on Good Morning Britain, Sky News, Radio 4 Today and more.*

Abeceda steroidních hormonů
Steroidní hormony mají klíčový význam napříč celou moderní medicínou, od endokrinologie přes hormonální antikoncepci až k autoimunitám či transplantačním technikám. Steroidy jsou standardní součásti farmakoterapie v kardiologii, dermatologii, gynekologii a porodnictví, imunologii, možnosti zákroku v akutních krizových stavech, oslabování pochodů stárnutí a v dalších lékařských i veterinárních oborech.
Porozumět problematice steroidních hormonů není lehkým úkolem. Pro lékaře-endokrinologa nejsou ve steroidní patologii takovým problémem nedostatečná produkce nebo nadprodukce některých steroidních hormonů, jako právě poruchy v oblasti steroidních enzymopatií, kde jsou indikátorem onemocnění různé sobě blízké steroidy a kdy lékař o diagnóze a léčbě má rozhodnout na základě analýzy spektra steroidů dodaného laboratoří.

On Dreams and the East
Jung’s landmark seminar on the symbolism of yoga and its applications to dream analysisIn the summer of 1933, C. G. Jung conducted a seminar in Berlin attended by a large audience of some 150 people, including several Jewish Jungians who would soon leave Germany. Hitler had begun consolidating his position as dictator and these students were distressed at Jung’s recent decision to accept the presidency of a German professional psychotherapy society that was rapidly becoming Nazified and purged of Jews. On Dreams and the East makes these seminar sessions widely available for the first time, offering tantalizing insights into Jung’s evolving understanding of yoga and the realization of the self. The seminar commences with a presentation on the psychology of yoga by noted Indologist and linguist Heinrich Zimmer, whose collaboration in these talks reflects Jung’s growing engagement with the Hindu tradition, particularly Tantric yoga. Jung analyzes a series of dreams of a middle-aged male patient, focusing on mandalas and the centering process. He reflects on related motifs in alchemical symbolism, Navaho healing drawings, Mithraism, baptism symbolism, the foundation of Rome, ecclesiastic dances, and labyrinths, drawing connections with the symbolism of yoga and Tantra. Featuring a richly documented introduction by Giovanni Sorge, On Dreams and the East opens a window on Jung’s deepening exploration of Eastern thought and the comparative study of the individuation process at a critical juncture in his life and work.
Seeking Attention
A book depicting the intimate complicity between attention and identity. . . "You are what you pay attention to."Simone Weil famously stated: "Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity." But what, in fact, counts as attention? Especially in our discombobulated ag? eeking Attention contributes to the burgeoning discussion around "attention studies," in a novel format - one that seeks to be as accessible as it is thought-provoking. The book presents a series of short "portraits" of different archetypal figures - the detective, the fan, the shrink, the parent, the lover, and others - with a focus on the specific ways in which they pay attention (to themselves, to others, to the world, and so forth). Using this frame allows the reader to reconsider the ways in which they themselves have likely been taking their own attention for granted. The figures featured in the book share certain traits, but also exhibit their own idiosyncratic relationship to the situations and contexts in which they find themselves. In this sense, the book is a somewhat mischievous phenomenology. Each "type" represents a different relationship to attention, and thus reframes its many failures, compromises, blind-spots, and discontents. (As well as its occasional triumphs.)By paying attention to attention, this book offers a rogue's gallery of customary ways in which we not only navigate the world, but help co-create it. These thirty portraits aim to inspire readers from diverse backgrounds to think more carefully, and in a more textured way, about precisely why it is so difficult these days for us to pay attention in a sustained way. As such, the book offers some models - traditional and emerging - for practicing multi-sensual ways of being truly present: ones that potentially embody the collective will to work effectively against all the insidious avatars of the Industrial-Distraction Complex.
Operationism in Psychology
Analyzes psychological research to offer insights into how methodological and ontological questions are intertwined. Psychology has seen an intense debate about the lack of replicability of results in recent years. Uljana Feest uses history and philosophy of science to shed light on the nature of experiment in psychology in general, but her aim reaches beyond debates about replication to provide a novel and comprehensive analysis of the investigative process in experimental psychology. She shows that the central unit of analysis for our epistemological considerations of psychological research should be not theories but, rather, concepts. Her guiding question is: How do psychological concepts figure in the experimental exploration of the objects of psychological research? For Feest, this question has two intertwined aspects: What role do concepts play in the design of experiments and the production of data, and how can concepts be revised or adapted in response to experimental results. Following the historical trajectory of debates about operationism in psychology, she argues that this debate was not concerned with philosophical theories of meaning but, instead, closely connected to the investigative practices of experimental psychologists. The book offers a broad analytical framework for thinking philosophically about the investigative process in psychology, including analyses of the relationship between data and phenomena in psychology, the relationship between folk- and scientific psychological concepts, the relationship between genuine results and experimental artifacts, and the nature and exploration of psychological kinds.
Beating Burnout
A comprehensive guide to the reasons behind burnout, with effective, practical ways to manage and prevent burnout to create a more balanced future.Burnout is a phenomenon that can happen to anyone, yet it is most often found in high-pressured workplaces, especially those where promotions and target achievement are valued. In this timely book, clinical psychologist Mike McKinney takes an informed look at the features of burnout, why and how burnout happens, and the signs it might be about to strike. After noticing an increase in patients struggling with burnout in their work roles, Mike McKinney used his extensive experience to gain a better understanding behind the reasons for this growth. What he found was that there are common underlying personality traits in an individual that can result in an increased vulnerability towards the development of burnout.While workplace changes are often touted as the answer to burnout, the author draws on his clinical experience over more than 25 years to show the reader what is within their power to change about themselves, so they can create greater resilience to burnout and a better balance in life. He deftly demonstrates how particular personality traits can contribute towards burnout, such as: the quest for perfection fear of failure beliefs around personal performancehaving an ‘all-or-nothing’ approachholding impossibly high personal expectations.The author then provides options and answers, along with suggestions for positive changes that can be sustained, and offers ways to help the reader consider a wider (and possibly new) purpose in life that is underpinned by ways to enhance resilience.Beating Burnout is an insightful, practical book for professionals and anyone experiencing burnout, as well as those who would like to help someone in burnout.

Autismus a raný vývoj
V novém tisíciletí se mění směr uvažování o autismu; otevřeně se mluví o možnosti „úzdravy“ v případě včasného zahájení intervence. Česká republika se přijetím plošného včasného záchytu batolat dotazníkem M-CHAT-R dostala na světovou úroveň v detekci poruch autistického spektra (PAS) v raném věku.
Kniha provází problematikou autismu s otevřeností potřebnou ke změně uvažování nad jednotlivci s PAS. Rozšiřuje pohled na poruchu, která byla mnoho let nahlížena pouze optikou behaviorálního syndromu a u které byly behaviorální přístupy upřednostňovány, o další aspekty. Představuje vývojový model rodičovské intervence O.T.A.®, který může, při včasné indikaci v batolecím věku, znamenat efektivní cestu ke snížení dopadů na dítě, jeho rodinu, ale také snížení nákladů na následnou péči. Tím odpovídá na celosvětově deklarované výzvy v oblasti intervencí u dětí s PAS (National Research Council, 2001).
Kniha v první části seznamuje čtenáře s novými poznatky vědy z dětské psychiatrie, neurologie, genetiky, klinické logopedie, psychologie. PAS je zasazena do kontextu neurovývojových poruch, které se často vzájemně překrývají a ovlivňují diferenciálnědiagnostický proces. Představena je časná diagnostika i genetika u PAS. Další kapitoly přibližují nejčastější komorbidity u autismu (ADHD, epilepsie, vývojovou poruchu jazyka). Pozornost je věnována jak rodičovství dítěte s PAS, tak důležitým milníkům vývoje dítěte. Druhá a třetí část publikace představuje světově unikátní intervenční program O.T.A.® u batolat.

Může se stát užitečným průvodcem i rodičům, prarodičům a dalším vychovatelům.
Mortal Secrets
A lively and accessible portrait of a major figure - Sigmund Freud - and the unprecedented era of creativity that shaped his ideasSome cities are like stars. When the conditions are right, they ignite, and they burn with such fierce intensity that they outshine all their rivals. From 1890 and through the early years of the 20th century, Vienna became a dazzling beacon. The city was powered by an unprecedented number of extraordinary people - artists Klimt and Schiele, thinkers such as Theodor Herzl, and fashion icons like the glamorous Empress Sisi. Conversations in coffee houses and salons spurred advances in almost every area of human endeavour: science, politics, philosophy, and the arts. The influence of early 20th century Vienna is still detectable all around us - but the place where it is at its strongest is in our heads. The way we think about ourselves has been largely determined by Vienna's most celebrated resident: Sigmund Freud. Mortal Secrets is the story of Freud's life, Vienna's golden age, and an essential reappraisal of Freud's legacy. 'Tallis' clear-eyed judicious analysis is the best I've read - about the city and the man' William Boyd'Brilliantly rich and vivid' The Times, Books of the Year'Fascinating... the best book I have read on Freud and Vienne' TLS, Books of the Year'Excellent and entertaining' Amanda Craig
Written Exposure Therapy for PTSD
This second edition provides readers with valuable tools and strategies to use in their clinical practice with trauma survivors with PTSD. Written exposure therapy (WET) is an effective, evidence-based treatment for PTSD that is easy to implement, affordable, and has lower dropout rates than other trauma interventions. In Denise Sloan and Brian Marx's unique approach, the client writes about a single traumatic event, and the therapist focuses on the client's experiences while writing about the trauma, rather than the event itself. This comprehensive manual provides step-by-step instructions for conducting WET with clients who suffer from PTSD. It contains a scripted protocol for WET, along with detailed guidance for conducting each session. Since publication of the first edition, the authors have modified several important aspects of their protocol based on updated research and evidence. In this edition, the authors describe how to deliver WET over telehealth, in a group format, in primary care settings that typically only permit 3 -minute sessions, and when using a language translator. New content shows how providers can manage difficult situations that sometimes arise when delivering WET, with valuable case examples that demonstrate key principles and potential outcomes of the WET protocol. This is an essential resource for trauma care providers, as well as graduate students in clinical psychology, counseling, and social work.
