David Sheff's story is a first: a teenager's addiction from the parent's point of view, a real-time chronicle of the shocking descent into substance abuse and the gradual emergence into hope.

Before meth, Sheff's son, Nic, was a varsity athlete, honor student, and award-winning journalist. After meth, he was a trembling wraith who stole money from his eight-year-old brother and lived on the streets. With haunting candor, Sheff traces the first warning signs, the attempts at rehabilitation, and, at last, the way past addiction. He shows us that, whatever an addict's fate, the rest of the family must care for one another, too, lest they become addicted to addiction.

"Sono passati trent'anni dalla prima pubblicazione sull'impresa di Franco Basaglia e del suo gruppo, impresa che avrebbe modificato - fra difficoltà, pregiudizi, inadempienze, ignoranza, fraintendimenti intenzionali e non - il panorama dell'assistenza psichiatrica in Italia e ben oltre i suoi confini. Che cos'è la psichiatria?, il primo dei volumi che ora si ristampano, è uscito nel '67 e fotografa una realtà in movimento: un manicomio tradizionale che sta aprendo porte, sbarre, cancelli; che ha eliminato contenzioni e violenza; che sta ragionando sulla propria storia, sulla qualità della terapia che offre.

La psichiatria è disciplina medica che si occupa della diagnosi, della comprensione e delle strategie terapeutiche necessarie per avvicinare ciò che convenzionalmente chiamiamo "disturbo psichico". Ma essa non può sfuggire a certe scelte etiche che richiamano i grandi temi del senso della vita, della libertà, della responsabilità verso le esistenze deboli ed emarginate. La psichiatria ha a che fare soprattutto con la cura, ma la cura non può essere soltanto farmacologica.

Lavarsi le mani continuamente, controllare il gas, verificare la chiusura di porte e finestre più del necessario, seguire un ordine preciso nel compiere banali azioni quotidiane. Sono i rituali più diffusi di chi soffre di ossessioni. A livello patologico esse possono portare forte disagio, ansia e disturbi dell'umore. Ma tali manie ci hanno accompagnato in tutto il corso dell'evoluzione? Da dove sorgono? Quali sono i farmaci e le terapie psicologiche efficaci se non per una totale guarigione almeno per un sostanziale sollievo?

"La cellulite è una malattia." "La cellulite non è una malattia." "La cellulite viene perché prendi la pillola." "La cellulite viene perché sei dell'Acquario con ascendente Vergine." "La cellulite non viene agli uomini ma a mio cugino sì." "Tutte hanno la cellulite." Potrei continuare all'infinito a elencarvi le sciocchezze che ho sentito dire in anni di luminosa carriera come "guerriera della cellulite".

The causes of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder range from severe neglect to monstrous abuse. Many survivors grew up in houses that were not homes-in families that were as loveless as orphanages and sometimes as dangerous. If you felt unwanted, unliked, rejected, hated, and/or despised for a lengthy portion of your childhood, trauma may be deeply engrained in your mind, soul, and body. This book is a practical guide to recovering from lingering childhood trauma. It is copiously illustrated with examples of the author's and his clients' journeys of recovering.

Come avviene che la mente si ammala? Il volume affronta il tema delle malattie della mente presentando le principali determinanti dei disagi psichici e i modelli di comprensione del loro insorgere, e chiarendo inoltre cosa si intenda per sviluppo normale. L'autore tiene conto sia del succedersi storico delle differenti teorie, sia del modello esplicativo più recente, qui definito "del disconoscimento e della dissintonia".

Oliver Sacks' The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat tells the stories of individuals afflicted with fantastic perceptual and intellectual aberrations: patients who have lost their memories and with them the greater part of their pasts; who are no longer able to recognize people and common objects; who are stricken with violent tics and grimaces or who shout involuntary obscenities; whose limbs have become alien; who have been dismissed as retarded yet are gifted with uncanny artistic or mathematical talents.
