 The Stories of the North Complete Collection【電子書籍】[ Jack London ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "The Stories of the North," Jack London invites readers into the harsh and compelling wilderness of the Yukon Territory, weaving together a tapestry of adventure, survival, and the elemental struggle against nature. The collection showcases London's vivid prose, characterized by his mastery of naturalism and a deep understanding of the human condition when faced with insurmountable odds. Each tale, steeped in the realities of the Gold Rush era, offers a raw portrayal of both the opportunism and desperation that defined that period, reflecting not only the physical challenges of the environment but also the psychological battles of individuals molded by their experiences. Jack London, an influential American writer known for his rugged narratives and socialist themes, drew from his own experiences in the Klondike Gold Rush to inform these stories. His early life, characterized by poverty and a relentless quest for adventure, instilled in him a profound appreciation for the interplay between humanity and nature, which is exquisitely articulated in this collection. It is through his unique lens as a participant and observer that London was able to infuse his narratives with authenticity and philosophical depth. For readers fascinated by the intersection of man and nature, "The Stories of the North" is an essential exploration that transcends its time. London's ability to evoke the ferocity of the elements and the tenacity of the human spirit makes this collection not only a gripping read but also a poignant reflection on resilience. It is a must-read for those who seek to understand the depths of human ambition and the relentless forces of the natural world.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 310円 |

 The Deadly Dinner Party: and Other Medical Detective Stories【電子書籍】[ Jonathan A. Edlow ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜P＞Picking up where Berton Rouech?’s ＜I＞The Medical Detectives＜/I＞ left off, ＜I＞The Deadly Dinner Party＜/I＞ presents fifteen edge-of-your-seat, real-life?medical detective stories written by a practicing physician.

 What Becomes of the Broken-hearted Broken-heart syndrome (aka takotsubo cardiomyopathy), my mother's suicide and other stories【電子書籍】[ Juliet Sullivan ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞A practical, sometimes humorous, sometimes devastating, guide to the little-known, poorly understood but increasingly prevalent health problem, broken-heart syndrome, also known as takotsubo cardiomyopathy. This is a condition in which the heart muscle becomes suddenly and severely weakened, often as a result of great emotional and/or physical stress, causing the heart's left ventricle (main pumping chamber) to become significantly enlarged, resembling a Japanese octopus trap (a tako-tsubo). Correctly diagnosed and treated, the condition is thought to be fully reversible. Based around her own experience of this syndrome following a close friend's sudden death and her mother's suicide, the Author explains the risks, the signs to look out for, the Dos and Don'ts and the best ways to promote recovery. She includes a selection of other patients' stories that show the diversity of happenings that can lead to a takotsubo event, as well as input from two cardiogists/heart specialistis who share the difficulties of identifying and treating the condition.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,760円 |
 Cycle of Lives 15 People's Stories, 5,000 Miles, and a Journey Through the Emotional Chaos of Cancer【電子書籍】[ David Richman ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Have you ever been forced to consider the fact of your mortality? If confronted with cancer, how would you feel? What would you say to the people you love? What would they say to you?＜/p＞ ＜p＞No two people have the same answers to these questions, a lesson I learned well during a solo six-week, 5,000-mile cross-country bike ride I called Cycle of Lives. The trip started as a fundraiser in honor of my sister, June, who died of brain cancer. But long before I even set out on my endurance ride from L.A. to Florida to N.Y., I exhaustively interviewed fifteen people across the country whose lives had also been irrevocably changed by cancerーeither as patients, survivors, loved ones, or caregivers.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hearing their moving stories, which were influenced by many different forms of past and present trauma, transformed my cycling odyssey into a journey of emotional self-discovery as I relived the chaos and emotional upheaval of cancer through them: from the man who found true love after losing his soulmate to cancer, to the elite athlete who had to reckon with his all-star body finally letting him down, to the medical oncologist who cares as much ＜em＞about＜/em＞ her patients as she cares ＜em＞for＜/em＞ them.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Whether you or someone you care about is going through cancer or some other major trauma, I hope this thought-provoking collection of astonishing stories can help you, too.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,288円 |
 Psychoanalysis, Neuroscience and the Stories of Our Lives The Relational Roots of Mental Health【電子書籍】[ Sarah Sutton ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜em＞Psychoanalysis, Neuroscience and the Stories of Our Lives: The Relational Roots of Mental Health＜/em＞ offers a new understanding of identity and mental health, shining the light of twenty-first century neurobiology on the core tenets of psychoanalysis. Accessibly written, it outlines the great leaps forward in neuroscience over the past three decades, and the consequent implications for understanding mental health symptoms today.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Central to the book is the idea that the seeds of mental illness are discovered not in the individual’s own fallibilities, but in the complex relationships we experience from our very first moments. Integrating the latest neuroscientific research, it depicts the individual as inherently interdependent with their environment, their neurobiological and emotional foundations framed by the context in which they are raised. Integrating traditional psychoanalytic ideas with findings from neurobiology and neuroscience, it reframes the oedipal set up, examines clinical depression as the presence of absence, and revisits resistance and the neurobiology of denial. Weaving narratives drawn from clinical practice, and highlighting implications for contemporary lives, the book is a tour de force, smashing the myth that our minds develop separately from the world around us.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This clear, lucid book, providing a timely overview of emotional and neurobiological development, will appeal to both psychologists and psychoanalysts. It will be also be a key reference work for mental health professionals, particularly those working in early years services.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 6,447円 |

 On Neurogenic Communication Disorders: Original Short Stories and Case Studies Second Edition【電子書籍】[ Dennis C. Tanner ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞On Neurogenic Communication Disorders: Original Short Stories and Case Studies is a unique book. It is a collection of short stories and case studies about persons with neurogenic communication disorders. The short stories are based on people I have known as friends, acquaintances, or patients. The characters in the short stories are based on one person or a composite of several individuals. I have placed these characters in interesting fictional situations which provide a vehicle for showing their mettle in dealing with their communication disorders and life challenges. The case studies are based on actual clinical cases and situations, but literary license has been taken to make them reader-friendly and interesting. This book of short stories and case studies is not a scholarly clinical treatise on neurogenic communication disorders, nor does it aspire to be one. While I believe it provides accurate information about neurogenic communication disorders, it is a work of fiction and simply a different vehicle for understanding these complex and often devastating medical conditions.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 468円 |
