Homöopathie neu gedacht
by Natalie GramsDer Versuch eines BrückenschlagsDieses viel diskutierte Buch hat die Debatte um die Homöopathie neu belebt. Die nun vorliegende Taschenbuchausgabe, in der auch die Erfahrungen der Autorin nach der Erstveröffentlichung Niederschlag gefunden haben, wird unentbehrlich bleiben für die weitere Diskussion.Die Homöopathie ist über 200 Jahre alt und erfährt auch heute noch einen ungebrochenen Zustrom. Viele Patienten und Therapeuten schwören auf die „alternative Heilmethode“, die mittlerweile auch von vielen Krankenkassen erstattet wird. Kritikern erscheint dies völlig unverständlich – ist für sie doch längst klar, dass die Homöopathie hoffnungslos unwissenschaftlich ist und allenfalls einen Placebo-Effekt zu bieten hat. Die Positionen von Befürwortern und Gegnern scheinen dabei ebenso unverrückbar wie unvereinbar. Das Buch beantwortet spannende Fragen: Was bleibt in einer Medizin des 21. Jahrhunderts übrig von dem Gedankengebäude der Homöopathie? Wie wirkt sie wirklich? Welche der ursprünglichen Theorien können wir auch heute noch guten Gewissens anwenden und zum Nutzen von Patienten und Gesundheitssystem einsetzen? Wo aber hat die Homöopathie Grenzen und muss in der Tat kritisch betrachtet und bewertet werden? Die Autorin hat sich über Jahre mit den Kritikpunkten auseinandergesetzt, nimmt aber gleichzeitig auch die Wünsche und Sorgen der Patienten ernst, die sich in der konventionellen Medizin oft nur unzureichend versorgt fühlen. Ihr Buch versucht einen (überfälligen) Brückenschlag zwischen zwei traditionell verfeindeten Lagern.Die AutorinNatalie Grams ist Ärztin, Autorin und Leiterin des Informations-Netzwerks Homöopathie. Ihr Buch und ihre kritische Einschätzung der Homöopathie haben ihr zahlreiche Interviews beschert und ein neues Nachdenken über diese Heilmethode befördert.

The Big Freeze: A Reporter's Personal Journey into the World of Egg Freezing and the Quest to Control Our Fertility
by Natalie LampertA fascinating investigation into the lucrative, minimally regulated, fast-growing industry of egg freezing, from a young reporter on a personal journey into the world of cutting-edge reproductive medicine&“An engaging and groundbreaking book.&”—Toni Weschler, MPH, author of Taking Charge of Your FertilityOvaries. Most women have two; journalist Natalie Lampert has only one. Then, in her early twenties, she almost lost it, along with her ability to ever have biological children. Doctors urged her to freeze her eggs, and Lampert started asking questions. The Big Freeze is the story of Lampert&’s personal quest to investigate egg freezing, as well as the multibillion-dollar femtech industry, in order to decide the best way to preserve her own fertility. She attended flashy egg-freezing parties, visited high-priced fertility clinics, talked to dozens of women who froze their eggs, toured the facility in Italy where the technology was developed, and even attended a memorial service for thousands of accidentally destroyed embryos. What was once science fiction is now simply science: Fertility can be frozen in time. Between 2009 and 2022, more than 100,000 women in the United States opted to freeze their eggs. Along with in vitro fertilization, egg freezing is touted as a way for women to &“have it all&” by conquering their biological clocks, in line with the global trend of delaying childbirth. A generation after the Pill, this revolutionary technology offers a new kind of freedom for women. But does egg freezing give women real agency or just the illusion of it?A personal and deeply researched guide to the pros, cons, and many facets of this wildly popular technology, The Big Freeze is a page-turning exploration of the quest to control fertility, with invaluable information that answers the questions women have been afraid to ask—or didn&’t know they should ask in the first place.
Distraction: Problems of Attention in Eighteenth-Century Literature
by Natalie M. PhillipsEnlightenment writers fiercely debated the nature of distraction in literature.Early novel reading typically conjures images of rapt readers in quiet rooms, but commentators at the time described reading as a fraught activity, one occurring amidst a distracting cacophony that included sloshing chamber pots and wailing street vendors. Auditory distractions were compounded by literary ones as falling paper costs led to an explosion of print material, forcing prose fiction to compete with a dizzying array of essays, poems, sermons, and histories. In Distraction, Natalie M. Phillips argues that prominent Enlightenment authors—from Jane Austen and William Godwin to Eliza Haywood and Samuel Johnson—were deeply engaged with debates about the wandering mind, even if they were not equally concerned about the problem of distractibility.Phillips explains that some novelists in the 1700s—viewing distraction as a dangerous wandering from singular attention that could lead to sin or even madness—attempted to reform diverted readers. Johnson and Haywood, for example, worried that contemporary readers would only focus long enough to "look into the first pages" of essays and novels; Austen offered wry commentary on the issue through the creation of the daft Lydia Bennet, a character with an attention span so short she could listen only "half-a-minute." Other authors radically redefined distraction as an excellent quality of mind, aligning the multiplicity of divided focus with the spontaneous creation of new thought. Laurence Sterne’s Tristram Shandy, for example, won audiences with its comically distracted narrator and uniquely digressive form.Using cognitive science as a framework to explore the intertwined history of mental states, philosophy, science, and literary forms, Phillips explains how arguments about the diverted mind made their way into the century’s most celebrated literature. She also draws a direct link between the disparate theories of focus articulated in eighteenth-century literature and modern experiments in neuroscience, revealing that contemporary questions surrounding short attention spans are grounded in long conversations over the nature and limits of focus.

Copeland's Cure: Homeopathy and the War Between Conventional and Alternative Medicine
by Natalie RobinsToday, one out of every three Americans uses some form of alternative medicine, either along with their conventional ("standard,""traditional") medications or in place of them. One of the most controversial-as well as one of the most popular-alternatives is homeopathy, a wholly Western invention brought to America from Germany in 1827, nearly forty years before the discovery that germs cause disease. Homeopathy is a therapy that uses minute doses of natural substances-minerals, such as mercury or phosphorus; various plants, mushrooms, or bark; and insect, shellfish, and other animal products, such as Oscillococcinum. These remedies mimic the symptoms of the sick person and are said to bring about relief by "entering" the body's "vital force. " Many homeopaths believe that the greater the dilution, the greater the medical benefit, even though often not a single molecule of the original substance remains in the solution. In Copeland's Cure,Natalie Robins tells the fascinating story of homeopathy in this country; how it came to be accepted because of the gentleness of its approach-Nathaniel Hawthorne and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow were outspoken advocates, as were Louisa May Alcott, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Daniel Webster. We find out about the unusual war between alternative and conventional medicine that began in 1847, after the AMA banned homeopaths from membership even though their medical training was identical to that of doctors practicing traditional medicine. We learn how homeopaths were increasingly considered not to be "real" doctors, and how "real" doctors risked expulsion from the AMA if they even consulted with a homeopath. At the center of Copeland's Cure is Royal Samuel Copeland, the now-forgotten maverick senator from New York who served from 1923 to 1938. Copeland was a student of both conventional and homeopathic medicine, an eye surgeon who became president of the American Institute of Homeopathy, dean of the New York Homeopathic Medical College, and health commissioner of New York City from 1918 to 1923 (he instituted unique approaches to the deadly flu pandemic). We see how Copeland straddled the worlds of politics (he befriended Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, and Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, among others) and medicine (as senator, he helped get rid of medical "diploma mills"). His crowning achievement was to give homeopathy lasting legitimacy by including all its remedies in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938. Finally, the author brings the story of clashing medical beliefs into the present, and describes the role of homeopathy today and how some of its practitioners are now adhering to the strictest standards of scientific research-controlled, randomized, double-blind clinical studies.

Gefährlich Leben - Gefährlich Denken: Eine Untersuchung von Nietzsches Philosophie
by Natalie SchulteNietzsche gilt als faszinierender Philosoph, der das Denken zu einer gefährlichen Sache, zu einem Abenteuer erklärt und der den/die Leser*in verlockt, sich auf das Wagnis seines Denkens einzulassen. Philosophie erscheint nicht als abstrakte Angelegenheit, sondern als eine zutiefst persönliche Auseinandersetzung, die das Leben des/der Einzelnen verwandeln soll, selbst um den Preis seiner möglichen Zerstörung. Welche Bedeutung aber hat das gefährliche Moment innerhalb von Nietzsches Philosophie für den/die Einzelne*n – und welche für die Gesellschaft? Und wie weit darf man in Selbst- und Fremdgefährdung gehen? Diesen Fragen geht die vorliegende Arbeit nach, wobei die Interpretation von Nietzsches Denken eingerahmt wird von zwei rezeptionsgeschichtlichen Untersuchungen: Von Beginn seiner Wirkung bis heute wurde Nietzsche als der gefährliche Philosoph par excellence verstanden. Inwieweit er glorifiziert, vereinnahmt oder verurteilt wird, sagt aber nicht zuletzt einiges über die Rezipierenden selbst aus und gibt Antwort auf die Frage, wieviel gefährliches Denken wir in einer Gesellschaft für zumutbar halten. Ein Einblick in die frühe und späte Nietzscherezeption zeigt dem/der Leser*in die Bandbreite an Reaktionen von Verherrlichung bis Verdammung, die Nietzsches Philosophie bis heute provoziert.

Animal Ethics and the Autonomous Animal Self (The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series)
by Natalie ThomasThis book presents a radical and intuitive argument against the notion that intentional action, agency and autonomy are features belonging only to humans. Using evidence from research into the minds of non-human animals, it explores the ways in which animals can be understood as individuals who are aware of themselves, and the consequent basis of our moral obligations towards them. The first part of this book argues for a conception of agency in animals that admits to degrees among individuals and across species. It explores self-awareness and its various levels of complexity which depend on an animals’ other mental capacities. The author offers an overview of some established theories in animal ethics including those of Peter Singer, Tom Regan, Bernard Rollin and Lori Gruen, and the ways these theories serve to extend moral consideration towards animals based on various capacities that both animals and humans have in common. The book concludes by challenging traditional Kantian notions of rationality and what it means to be an autonomous individual, and discussing the problems that still remain in the study of animal ethics.
