Pat Krause
Acts of Love: A Memoir

2007 y.
Publisher: Coteau Books
Description: An award-winning personal memoir of enduring love and painful loss throughout an eventful life, told in a series of vignettes by an exceptional journalist. Using writing that ensnares one with its lively candor and its unrestrained intimacy, veteran writer and broadcast journalist Pat Krause draws her readers into a journey that few would choose but even fewer will escape - the experience of living through the illness and eventual death of her lifelong partner. Like the pages of a cherished photo album, the 19 `stories` in Acts of Love present snapshots of these interwoven lives. Around the details of their common front in the daily battle with disease, Pat arranges her recollections of their life together - their family, their travels, their many friends, and the love that endured through it all. One such memory is of the life and death of her famous father, Dr. Allan Blair, a pioneer in cancer research. The result of it all is a powerful love story which reveals a great sense of… [detailed...]

Jerome Bruner
Actual Minds, Possible Worlds

1987 y.
Publisher: Harvard University Press
Description: If gaining maturity means being adept at seeing the same set of events from multiple perspectives and contemplating alternative futures, then this concept of adulthood says something about the way our minds work. Bruner`s `constructivist` approach holds that we create our own realities through our interaction with our social world and with symbols. This collection of challenging, often difficult essays takes us beyond his popular On Knowing: Essays for the Left Hand, as he explores controversies in the theory of literature, linguistics, cognitive psychology and education. His argument that characters, setting and action are inseparable elements in fiction helps explain why great novels have emotional power. Literature is seen as a vehicle that opens us to dilemmas. Bruner`s outlook illuminates sundry topics, from the way a teacher`s stance toward the curriculum affects the learning process to the idea of culture as `semiconnected knowledge of the world` that enables people to arrive… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionAddressing acupuncture form a unique perspective, Acupuncture: An Anatomical-Based Approach abandons the traditional oriental medicine approach in favor of a carefully analytic scientific presentation. The tightly-focused book describes the progression of chronic pain in the peripheral nervous system, demonstrating that points conducting pain impulses through the peripheral nerves become more tender to palpation throughout life in response to episodes of pain, and they do this in a predictable sequence. This sequence, expressed as a `pain quantification,` has important prognostic significance to the person`s response, not just to acupuncture, but also to any other intervention. [detailed...]

2008 y.

The books intention is to highlight the practical aspects of management and establish straightforward management plans.
