Confronting Chronic Pain
A trusted, updated guide to understanding chronic pain and reclaiming your quality of life. Confronting Chronic Pain is a clear, compassionate, and up-to-date guide to understanding and managing one of the most common and complex health challenges: long-term, persistent pain. Written by two leading pain specialists, this trusted resource distills decades of clinical expertise into an accessible, practical handbook for individuals living with pain and those who care for them. This revised edition reflects major changes in the medical understanding of pain and its treatment. Readers will find insights on conditions such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, back pain, neuropathy, chronic headaches, and cancer-related pain, along with the latest options for relief. The authors explore traditional therapies and emerging treatments, including new minimally invasive procedures, improved migraine medications, and advances in neurostimulation. While examining the evolving role, risks, and best practices for opioid use, they also highlight promising non-opioid alternatives—from physical therapy and anti-inflammatory strategies to antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and innovative topical or injectable treatments. Beyond the physical manifestations of pain in the body, Confronting Chronic Pain explores the psychological, social, and spiritual aspects of pain. Chapters on family dynamics, emotional resilience, and communication with health care providers help readers take an active role in their care and reclaim their quality of life.
Behind White Picket Fences
Fusing page-turning suspense with keenly observed humor, this homage to female friendship explores the hamster wheel of modern motherhood, and the consequences for jumping off. Kiersten Cleaver feels like she’s flunking Motherhood 101. Exhausted by travel sports, homework, and her son’s dyslexia, she joins forces with her neighbors, Rosamund and Piper, to drop out of the scholastic rat race for one year. Together, they start the Beaverbrook Academy for Inquiring Minds in Kiersten’s kitchen, embarking on a journey back to the idyllic life they experienced as children, when phones were attached to the wall and kids played outside until the streetlights came on at dusk. But the women quickly realize fractions aren’t their only problem. A sixty-year-old diary discovered in Kiersten’s basement raises unsettling questions about their neighborhood, their safety, and the seemingly simpler past. Their picture-perfect suburb disguises deadly secrets—and someone wants to keep them hidden. As unsettling events rattle their fragile utopia, Kiersten, Rosamund, and Piper face an impossible choice. And if they expose the truth, they put everything at risk: their children, their friendship, and their newfound community.

Three Screenplays
How can I help you, traveller? Let me guide you out of the woods."Cornerstones of modern British folk horror, Ben Wheatley and Amy Jump’s Kill List, A Field in England, and In the Earth together form a singular body of work, revealing England,past and present, as a landscape shaped by history, power, and the occult. Kill List follows two ex-military hitmen on a routine contract that draws them into a nightmarish world of cult practice and conspiracy, with devastating consequences. A Field in England, widely regarded as one of the most important British films of the past fifty years, is a hallucinatory journey into the seventeenth-century English Civil War, drawing on the psychedelic legacy of British magical and visionary traditions. In the Earth, conceived during the COVID pandemic, explores isolation, ecology, and belief as a researcher ventures into the wilderness in search of a colleague lost while pursuing a cure for a deadly disease. Three Screenplays collects the shooting scripts for all three films, available to read together for the first time. With a preface by Ben Wheatley and an introduction by Tariq Goddard, this volume offers a rare insight into one of the most distinctive collaborations in contemporary British cinema.

Za hranice komfortu, 2. vydání
Máme všeho dostatek. Žijeme v klimatizovaných prostorech, jídlo máme na dosah jednoho kliknutí a největší fyzickou výzvou dne bývá cesta k autu. Přesto jsme často unavení, úzkostní a nespokojení. Je to náhoda? Michael Easter ukazuje, že nikoliv.
V tomto provokativním bestselleru se vydáte z aljašské divočiny až do špičkových neurovědeckých laboratoří, abyste zjistili, že moderní pohodlí nás sice chrání před nepříjemnostmi, ale zároveň oslabuje tělo, otupuje pozornost a snižuje naši odolnost vůči stresu, nejistotě a námaze.
Zjistíte:
• Proč může být misogi (extrémní výzva) účinnou odpovědí
na moderní vyhoření.
• Jak nuda a ticho dokážou restartovat kreativitu.
• Proč tělo i mysl potřebují občasný chlad, námahu a nepohodlí,
aby správně fungovaly.
Za hranice komfortu není jen kniha o přežití v divočině. Je to manuál na přežití v moderním světě.
Acquired Taste
A startling, witty and downright terrifying collection of 25 short stories from the "21st century's Richard Matheson" (Richard Chizmar, Chasing the Boogeyman.), including the Shirley Jackson award-nominated Stay on the Line. Perfect for fans of Paul Tremblay, Rachel Harrison and Eric LaRocca. They're feeding on you too. A father returns from serving in Vietnam with a strange and terrifying addiction; a man removes something horrifying from his fireplace, and becomes desperate to return it; and a right-wing news channel has its hooks in people in more ways than one. From department store Santas to ghost boyfriends and salamander-worshipping nuns, from the claustrophobia of the COVID-19 pandemic to small-town Chesapeake USA, Clay McLeod Chapman takes universal fears of parenthood, addiction and political divisions and makes them uniquely his own. Packed full of humanity, humour and, above all, relentless creeping dread, Acquired Taste is a timely descent into the mind of one of modern horror's finest authors.

Perfection Campaign
Born with a cleft lip into an upper-middle-class, conservative family obsessed with image and success, Jill Vanneman was subjected early to a ''perfection campaign'' aimed at erasing flaws. Told with unflinching honesty, moments of wit, and emotional depth, this coming-of-age story unfolds against the backdrop of 1980s America - a time and place where being a lesbian could cost you your job, your family, and your sense of self. As she grows into adolescence, college, and early adulthood, Jill begins to question not only her place in her family but also her sexual identity. Her journey leads her through turbulent relationships, professional achievements shadowed by internalized shame, and a heartbreaking attempt to reconcile with disapproving parents. Gradually, through therapy, spiritual exploration, and painful introspection, Jill learns that healing doesn''t come from perfection but from embracing the flawed, fierce truth of who she is. A raw, deeply personal memoir of family expectations, social shame, and a relentless drive for perfection, The Perfection Campaign is a compelling testament to resilience, identity, and the high cost - and ultimate liberation - of living authentically.
