Pečujeme v závěru života
Víme, že pečovat doma není snadné. Víme ale, že to může být dobré nejen pro nemocného, ale i pro nás ostatní: umožnit blízkému být mezi svými, přinést pocit naplnění, urovnat vztahy v rodině.
Publikace vychází z praktických zkušeností pečujících pracovníků Cesty domů, autorka Martina Tesařová několik let vedla tým terénních i pobytových odlehčovacích služeb. Najdete v ní srozumitelné obrázky, praktické rady a jednoduché postupy z praxe.
Tato publikace mapuje oblasti, ve kterých se můžeme na péči připravit, a to třeba uzpůsobením domácnosti a využitím dostupných zdrojů pomoci, ale i svým vnitřním nastavením. Je zaměřená na jednotlivé praktické oblasti péče o člověka v závěru života, např. jak zajistit hygienu u imobilního člověka, najdete zde tipy a triky při vyprazdňování na lůžku, rady pro přesuny nemocného z lůžka na vozík či toaletu. Ale také rady, jak můžete u nemocného podpořit pohyb nebo co může pomoct, či naopak uškodit při podávání potravy a tekutin.
Uvědomujeme si, že péče nekončí úmrtím, a proto přinášíme praktické rady, co můžete dělat bezprostředně poté. Zároveň prostředí, které jsme postupně přizpůsobovali péči, po ukončení péče opět adaptujeme na novou situaci. Zastavíme se krátce i u rituálů rozloučení a návratu do života, kdy už nebudeme muset být v neustálé pohotovosti.
Díky praktické kroužkové vazbě zůstává kniha otevřená přesně tam, kde ji potřebujete - na stole, na lince, vedle postele, a najdete jednoduše názorné obrázky, ověřené tipy a jasné postupy krok za krokem.
The Only Cure
'A scholarly masterpiece, written by the world's greatest living authority on Freud . . . There is so much to be learned in these pages'KARL J. FRISTON, the world's most cited neuroscientistOnce dismissed as unscientific, psychoanalytic therapy is proving to be among our most effective medical treatments of any kind - outperforming psychiatric drugs and rivalling vaccines in its power to prevent and heal. Why does it work so wel? erhaps because one of the most controversial figures in psychology was right all along. Neuroscience now confirms much of what Sigmund Freud conjectured over a century ago: our deepest struggles stem, not from chemical imbalances, but from buried memories and unconscious conflicts that no pill can touch. Using enthralling case studies and cutting-edge brain science, pioneering neuroscientist Mark Solms makes the case that psychoanalysis should resume its position as our master theory of the mind. Yet modern research also reveals where Freud got important things wrong. Could correcting these errors make therapy even more effectiv? s psychiatric diagnoses soar and standard treatments continue to fail many patients, The Only Cure offers a revolutionary hope: a real science of healing, rooted in the radical idea that our suffering arises from truths we haven't yet faced.

The Unfragile Mind
FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF ADVENTURES IN HUMAN BEING AND RECOVERY This book is about the contours and landscapes of mental health. We experience the world through the filter of our emotions, but those emotions can be fickle as well as misleading. As human beings we have power over them, and when your feelings are bad, it can be helpful to remember that your being is something quite separate from them entirely.Maps of the Mind traces some of the routes through mental health that Dr Gavin Francis''s patients have shown him over his decades as a physician. The twenty-first century has opened up vital conversations about ''mental weather'': moods that bring gusts of panic, others that bring freezing fogs of despondency. Now, we need a new model of healthcare which moves beyond diagnosis and offers robust shelters to take cover in until the worst storms pass. What would a framework of mental wellness look like instead, one which understands the different landscapes of mental health we continuously move in and out o? eaturing sensitive case studies from his own practice alongside conversations with therapists, psychiatrists and psychologists, Dr Gavin Francis examines the landscape of Western mental healthcare today and offers new perspectives on the maintenance of mental wellbeing.
The Revolution Will Be Internalised
Anouchka Grose, a leading psychotherapist specialising in climate anxiety, was in general happy with her London life which included a glamorous partner, a teenager, even a spare room. But, shaken by the apparent futility of Western activism in the face of inertia and corruption, she began to question her choices, both material and emotional. Instead of seeking outward answers she went inwards, creating an alternative Eat, Pray, Love for the polycrisis. Inner prepping, or altering your private, interior world as a form of civil resistance, is an oblique way of coming at the classic feminist idea that the personal is political. Grose takes us on an exhilarating, funny, erudite and ultimately uplifting tour of the practices she tried out, including ego-dismantling retreats, animal communication, and tantra, offering myriad ways to revolutionise ourselves and others.

Stahl's Deprescriber's Guide
For decades, psychiatry has focused on initiating treatment—which medication to prescribe, in what dose, and for how long. But what happens when treatment needs to stop? How a medication is stopped is just as important as how it is started, and abrupt discontinuation can lead to unnecessary suffering, relapse, and often preventable withdrawal symptoms. Based on the principles of the bestselling Stahl's Prescriber's Guide, this essential resource provides user-friendly guidance on deprescribing or switching psychotropic medications safely and effectively. 64 medications are presented in a consistent format to facilitate rapid access to deprescribing information. Divided into color coded sections, the book allows the reader to identify key details about when and why to deprescribe, the risks and mechanisms of withdrawal, tapering protocols, cross-titration strategies, and how to distinguish withdrawal symptoms from relapse. Evidence-based recommendations and expert clinical insights make this a must-have manual for all psychiatric prescribers.

Fundamentals of Biological Psychology
This undergraduate biological psychology textbook offers a critical introduction to brain and behavior. Psychology lectures open with 'the brain is the most complex and mysterious object in the universe', only to quickly reduce that complexity by teaching simplified models. This textbook challenges these narratives by focusing on the latest neurotechnological advances, to clarify the limits of current models, and to inspire the development of safe and accessible technologies for human use. Its central aim is to promote critical thinking and inspire students to pose novel research questions that build from current advances. It is an ideal textbook for instructors who are eager to push beyond a conventional introductory curriculum. Beautifully illustrated and full of practical applications, it is accompanied by teaching slides and a test bank.
Child and Adolescent Development
Only when we fully appreciate the origins and foundations of child and adolescent behaviors will we succeed in uncovering why they do what they do. By emphasizing evolutionary viewpoints of human psychological development, this textbook explains the fundamental underpinnings of young minds and how they grow. New chapters on the biological basis and cultural context of development introduce students to dynamic new debates in the field. The integrative, topical approach incorporates the perspectives that guide today's practitioners and gives students a holistic and up-to-date understanding of development. Box features highlight key debates, Section Reviews reinforce essential points, and “Ask Yourself” questions and end-of-chapter exercises encourage engagement and extend learning, supporting and enhancing student understanding. Revised and updated throughout, this comprehensive, topical textbook uniquely integrates the central themes of modern developmental theory – developmental contextualism, sociocultural perspective, and evolutionary theory – in a strong, theoretical introduction to child and adolescent development.
Moderní molekuly v onkologii, 2. vydání
Druhé, aktualizované a doplněné vydání velmi úspěšné knihy. Fundovaný, přehledný, kompletní a přitom koncizní průvodce novými léky, které se do klinické praxe v onkologii dostaly a dostávají v posledních letech. Větší část těchto látek je běžně řazena pod pojem biologická, resp. cílená léčba, kniha je však komplexnější a obsahuje také nová chemoterapeutika, resp. nová radiofarmaka.
Z nepřeberného množství údajů, které každou látku při vstupu na trh provázejí, vybral autor s ohledem na svou klinickou zkušenost prakticky významné minimum informací, které onkolog skutečně potřebuje pro rozhodování o volbě léku.
Text je doplněn schématy umožňujícími snadné pochopení mechanismu účinku.
Empathic Engagement in Clinical Practice
This guide for mental health professionals offers an insightful, conversational approach to mastering empathic communication with clients. Douglas Flemons invites readers to join him in a dialogue that incorporates voices from clinical research and practice, philosophy (both Eastern and Western), neuroscience, and the arts. He explains the nuts and bolts of empathy, and offers guidelines for how readers can make sense of the client’s thoughts, feelings, and choices from inside their worldview. He also shows how the clinician, with compassion, curiosity, and an empathic imagination, can create a heartfelt connection that allows the client to feel respected and understood and that opens the way for collaboration and therapeutic change. Innovative strategies for therapist self-care are thoroughly explored. Practitioners learn how to effectively engage in and safely disengage from close empathic relationships, even with clients who are deeply suffering or who present complex emotional challenges.
