2007 y.

S. Nassir Ghaemi
The Concepts of Psychiatry: A Pluralistic Approach to the Mind and Mental Illness

2007 y.
Publisher: The Johns Hopkins University Press
Description: Because most psychiatric illnesses are complex phenomena, no single method or approach is sufficient to explain them or the experiences of persons who suffer from them. In The Concepts of Psychiatry S. Nassir Ghaemi, M.D. argues that the discipline of psychiatry can therefore be understood best from a pluralistic perspective. Grounding his approach in the works of Paul McHugh, Phillip Slavney, Leston Havens, and others, Ghaemi incorporates a more explicitly philosophical discussion of the strengths of a pluralistic model and the weaknesses of other approaches, such as biological or psychoanalytic theories, the biopsychosocial model, or eclecticism. Ghaemi`s methodology is twofold: on the one hand, he applies philosophical ideas, such as utilitarian versus duty-based ethical models, to psychiatric practice. On the other hand, he subjects clinical psychiatric phenomena, such as psychosis or the Kraepelin nosology, to a conceptual analysis that is philosophically informed. This… [detailed...]

The Concise Pepys

1997 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Editions Limited
Description: Samuel Pepys began his celebrated diary on 1st January 1660 immediately prior to the Restoration of Charles II to the throne and the subsequent loosening of the rigid moral and social code enforced during the Puritan Commonwealth. As variously Clerk to the Council, a Member of Parliament, a prisoner in the Tower of London, twice Secretary to the Admiralty and President of the Royal Society, Pepys was in a unique position to observe and record in detail a fascinating ten-year period of English history which included not only the Restoration, but the Great Plague of 1665 and the Fire of London the following year. However, it was not only affairs of State which took up the great diarist`s interest, for he was a regular attendant at the King`s Theatre, was a hearty eater and drinker and delighted in recording his fondness for women, especially his own and his friends` young servant girls.

The Condominium Specialist

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: For many young Americans, the traditional `American Dream` may be out-of-reach financially, but they can take their first steps toward a home of their own by buying a less expensive condominium. For licensed real estate agents, this fact represents another opportunity to increase their annual incomes. However, listing and selling condominiums successfully (and keeping their clients satisfied with their services) is not the same as dealing with the single-family home. It requires specialized knowledge without which many agents elect to bypass this phase of home-selling. In `The Condominium Specialist`, P.J. Thompson provides a fact-packed handbook to enable any real estate agent to confidently help condominium buyers and sellers. Insodoing agents not only open their horizons to increasing their annual income by working with young Americans but also the older generation who may be ready to give up the responsibilities of a large home and enjoy the freedom of the condominium… [detailed...]

Description: Pride and Prejudice told from a delightfully different point of view. `The Holy Grail of P&,P sequels.` (Austenblog) Originally published in the U.K., Mary Street`s ingenious retelling of Jane Austen`s classic story now makes its .S. debut-to the delight of the fans of Austen`s comic masterpiece of divine romance. In Fitzwilliam Darcy, Austen created the ultimate romantic hero. Yet Pride and Prejudice reveals little of Darcy`s innermost thoughts. Here, Street unveils the true moties and mysteries of Elizabeth Bennet`s enigmatic suitor. Through Darcy`s eyes we discover the reality of his relationships with his sister Georgiana, his cousin Colonel Fitzwilliam, the dastardly Wickham, his friend Bingley, and his formidable aunt, Lady atherine. And of course, all his memorable encounters with Elizabeth, from that first view of her fine eyes to his disastrous proposal, and then to a pride and arrogance tempered by an unquenchable love.

Description: `A wild ride through the 19th Century Irish countryside.` This is the first of Charles Lever`s rollicking military novels. It involves a dashing young British Army officer, who is transferred to Cork with his regiment. While there, he undergoes what Lever calls `a mass of incongruous adventures`, or, to put it in the words of the hero of the story: `Such was our life in Cork-dining, drinking, dancing, riding steeplechases, pigeon shooting, and tandem driving-filling up any little interval that was found to exist between a late breakfast, and the time to dress for dinner…` The book is filled with hilarious stories and anecdotes, and all sorts of interesting Irish characters-including some penetrating sketches of Catholic clerical life. In the later part of the book, the story ventures to Europe where we meet Arthur O`Leary, who becomes a main character in a later volume. Lever was astonished at the success of Harry Lorrequer, and once remarked: `If this sort of thing… [detailed...]
