ARGENTINA ANSIOLITICA, LA (EBOOK)
by Valeria M. ShapiraISTORIAS COTIDIANAS SOBRE LA MEDICALIZACIÓN DE LA VIDA Un hombre que llega a la guardia de una clínica con síntomas de ataque de pánico, una abuela que discute con el cura de la iglesia sobre su necesidad de visitar a un psiquiatra, un ejecutivo que odia las pastillas y prefiere el diván, una mujer fóbica a los aviones que nunca viaja sin su pastilla "mágica" o una chica que logró terminar su carrera con la ayuda de ansiolíticos son algunos de los personajes anónimos que transitan las páginas de este libro. Durante los últimos años, en ese sector de la población que todavía llamamos "clase media" se instaló una costumbre cada vez más difundida: la de salir a la calle con un ansiolítico en el bolsillo. Si bien se trata de un fenómeno que se repite en otras grandes capitales, la forma en que nos relacionamos con estas pastillas presenta sus particularidades a nivel local. La Argentina ansiolítica recoge historias de vida de argentinos que tienen o tuvieron un vínculo con esos medicamentos que la ciencia consiguió mejorar desde los años 70, y cuyo uso suele vincularse con la denominada "medicalización de la vida cotidiana". Con una prosa ágil, directa y nunca exenta de humor, Valeria Shapira abre las puertas a esa realidad que pasa delante de nuestros ojos, sin pretender planteos técnicos o cientificistas en torno de estas drogas que hoy se cuentan entre las más vendidas. Más que entregar fórmulas, la autora abre preguntas: por qué todavía estigmatizamos a quienes toman ansiolíticos? Es necesario enfrentar las pastillas y el diván, en un país con tradición psicoanalítica tan fuerte? Pretendemos tratar las crisis nacionales con remedios, en lugar de buscar soluciones políticas o económicas? Quién se atreve a negar que vivimos automedicados? La Argentina ansiolítica invita a conocer, sin prejuicios, los caminos que cada uno busca para lidiar con su ansiedad en este rincón del mundo donde la angustia y la incertidumbre cotidianas son parte de nuestra marca país.
ARGENTINA BIPOLAR, LA (EBOOK)
by M. MORA Y ARAUJOEl título de este libro sugiere un diagnóstico. Los síntomas básicos de la bipolaridad son fuertes cambios en un corto período. Esta es la "enfermedad" de la sociedad argentina y la hipótesis de la que se vale Manuel Mora y Araujo para encarar esta valiosa investigación, que recorre y analiza el comportamiento pendular de la opinión pública desde el regreso de la democracia hasta la actualidad. La sociedad argentina ha apoyado entusiastamente a gobiernos que poco después ha odiado; ha proyectado sus inseguridades en líderes políticos fuertes y, pasado algún tiempo, ha elegido personalidades débiles. En esta suerte de bipolaridad, un estado de ánimo sigue al otro exhibiendo cierta circularidad. De la euforia a la depresión, de la manía al pesimismo. Con los datos de las investigaciones de opinión pública realizadas en nuestro país en los últimos veinticinco años, La Argentina bipolar muestra una aguda aproximación a la realidad contemporánea, independiente de las preferencias de quien observa. Un ensayo indispensable para entender los procesos políticos que han tenido lugar desde 1983.

AUXILIO, SOMOS PADRES! (EBOOK)
by I. Fainboim BeckLa sala de espera de un pediatra es un cuadro dantesco. Ese lugar al que llegamos luego de un arduo casting para encontrar al pediatra ideal es el caldo de cultivo de piojos, mocos y virus en todas sus variedades. Es el lugar al que llegamos con nuestras ojeras, bolsos, ropa manchada, asientos de bebé, mamaderas y a veces también con lo que queda de quien supo ser nuestra pareja. Y, por último, es el lugar donde está él o ella. Nuestra salvación: el pediatra. El hombre o la mujer que nos quitará todos los miedos, todas nuestras angustias, que nos ayudará a criar al niño o niña y que nos dirá qué hacer, cuándo y cómo. Nos dirá si está flaco o está gordo, si tiene que dejar la teta, si tiene que dejar el pañal, si ya debería decir más de diez palabras, si ya debería caminar, si ya debería dormir solo de un tirón, qué hacemos si se cae de cabeza, si se corta, si tiene fiebre, en fin, que nos confirme que somos pésimos padres y que la culpa es el motor de nuestras vidas. El pediatra es todo, por eso este libro también es para ellos, que podrán reírse de las insólitas preguntas que les hacemos los padres, en el consultorio o por teléfono a las cuatro de la madrugada porque el nene tiene tanto catarro que parece un cantor de tango. Ingrid Beck vuelve con todo el humor que ya mostró en la Guía (inútil) para madres primerizas 1 y 2. Y, esta vez, embarca en su locura a Alejandro Fainboim, el pediatra de sus hijos.

Abdominales con Balón: Aprovechando Pilates para construir Excelentes Abdominales
by Colleen CraigInnovative abdominal exercises to help tone the abdomen, improve posture, and build a strong back using the Swiss exercise ball • Offers a 15-minute and 30-minute workout for all levels of fitness • Shows how the mobility of the ball targets underutilized muscles• Shows how traditional sit-ups and “ab” machines limit how much abdominal muscles can be trained and also aggravate lower back pain and neck tensionThe exercise ball has long been recommended by doctors, physical therapists, and Olympic coaches for people suffering from back pain. Now Colleen Craig, author of the bestselling book Pilates on the Ball, reveals why the exercise ball is unmatched as a tool for building superb abdominal strength. She presents a selection of over 100 innovative exercises, including some of the key powerhouse-builders from the Pilates Method, all of which she has adapted specifically to the ball.Craig shows how traditional sit-ups and "ab" machines actually limit the degree to which abdominal muscles can be trained and can even aggravate lower back pain and neck tension. In contrast, the very mobility of the ball targets underutilized muscles, recruiting both deep and superficial abdominal muscle fibers to enhance results. Abdominales con Balón includes exercises for all ability levels and a 15- and 30-minute workout designed not only to build the abdominal core, but also to strengthen and train deep muscles in the back and hip in order to soothe lower back pain and increase overall body strength, balance, and coordination.
Abductions and Aliens: What's Really Going On
by Chris A. RutkowskiWe can’t escape them; aliens are everywhere. They sell us soft drinks and star in their own sitcoms. But to the many people who believe they have been abducted aboard strange crafts, aliens are a very serious reality. Stories of these encounters, taken from investigators’ files, have been vividly depicted in television specials and motion pictures. Despite their predominance as a cultural phenomenon, experts offer drastically conflicting opinions: aliens are harmless creatures whose aim is to better understand humans; aliens are angel-like entities here to enhance our spiritual awareness; aliens are conspiring with the government in a plot to enslave humans; and aliens are genetically breeding with humans to create a new race of hybrids. But, what is really going on? Are aliens abducting thousands of unsuspecting people each year? Are they then inserted with tracking devices and monitored? Based on his own investigative files and almost twenty-five years of research, science writer Chris Rutkowski asks hard questions, looking critically, yet compassionately, at the stories of abductees. He is an astronomer, educator and published commentator within the area of study known as "ufology." Rutowski presents case histories of many abductees, showing both their diversity and similarities, and examines how our understanding is shaped by media, by science, and by society itself.
Abhidhamma Studies
by Bhikkhu Bodhi Nyanaponika TheraThe Abhidhamma, the third great division of early Buddhist teaching, expounds a revolutionary system of philosophical psychology rooted in the twin Buddhist insights of selflessness and dependent origination. In keeping with the liberative thrust of early Buddhism, this system organizes the entire spectrum of human consciousness around the two poles of Buddhist doctrine - bondage and liberation, Samsara and Nirvana - the starting point and the final goal. It thereby maps out, with remarkable rigour and precision, the inner landscape of the mind to be crossed through the practical work of Buddhist meditation. In this book of groundbreaking essays, Venerable Nyanaponika Thera, one of our age's foremost exponents of Theravada Buddhism, attempts to penetrate beneath the formidable face of the Abhidhamma and to make its principles intelligible to the thoughtful reader of today. His point of focus is the Consciousness Chapter of the Dhammasangani, the first treatise of the Abhidhamma Pitaka. Basing his interpretation on the detailed list of mental factors that the Abhidhamma uses as a guide to psychological analysis, he launches into bold explorations in the multiple dimensions of conditionality, the nature of consciousness, the temporality of experience, and the psychological springs of spiritual transformation. Innovative and rich in insights, this book does not merely open up new avenues in the academic study of early Buddhism. By treating the Abhidhamma as a fountainhead of inspiration for philosophical and psychological inquiry, it demonstrates the continuing relevance of Buddhist thought to our most astute contemporary efforts to understand the elusive yet so intimate nature of the mind.
Abide
by Katherine ThompsonJust as grapes cannot grow without the grapevine, neither can we flourish and grow without God. He is the vine and we are his branches. Jesus often used everyday images and metaphors, including that of the grapevine, to help us understand more about God and the nature of our relationship with him. We are invited to abide (remain) in God. Of utmost importance in this process is learning how to listen deeply to what God is speaking into our hearts, through all of our senses. In the quietness that follows, our spirit is able to hear what God’s Spirit is saying to us. The exercises in 'Abide' are designed to help you to take time out of your busy life – to stop and deeply listen to God. Take some time out now, and learn how to abide in the presence of God.

Abnormal Psychology and Life: A Dimensional Approach
by Christopher A. Kearney Timothy J. TrullChris Kearney and Tim Trull's ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY AND LIFE: A DIMENSIONAL APPROACH provides students with a concise, contemporary, science-based view of psychopathology that emphasizes the individual first and the disorder second. Through consistent pedagogy featuring clinical cases and real first-person narratives, the text illuminates our understanding that abnormal behavior--rather than being either present or absent--exists in everyone to some degree on a continuum from normal to pathological. By highlighting this widely accepted dimensional view--which places the behavior of an individual at the forefront of clinical assessment, prevention, definition, and treatment--the text's goal is to encourage students to become intelligent consumers of mental health information. With its emphasis on assessment and treatment as well as prevention, the book gives students the tools necessary to understand the precursors of abnormal behavior, overcome the stigma associated with it, and identify the real people classified as exhibiting it.
