Olatunji, "The Cambridge Handbook of Anxiety and Related Disorders " English | ISBN: 1107193060 | 2019 | 896 pages | PDF | 8 MB This Handbook surveys existing descriptive and experimental approaches to the study of anxiety and related disorders, emphasizing the provision of empirically-guided suggestions for treatment. Based upon the findings from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), the chapters collected here highlight contemporary approaches to the classification, presentation, etiology, assessment, and treatment of anxiety and related disorders. The collection also considers a biologically-informed framework for the understanding of mental disorders proposed by the National Institute of Mental Health's Research Domain Criteria (RDoC). The RDoC has begun to create a new kind of taxonomy for mental disorders by bringing the power of modern research approaches in genetics, neuroscience, and behavioral science to the problem of mental illness. The framework is a key focus for this book as an authoritative reference for researchers and clinicians. ![]() Free Download The Calabar Bean and its Alkaloids: From Magic, via Miracle, to Memory English | 2023 | ISBN: 9402411909 | 762 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 17 MB Investigations into Calabar beans (the dried ripe seeds of Physostigma venenosum) and their alkaloidal components compose a classical scientific journey throughout some one-and-a-half centuries and not only represent a fascinating aspect of the history of medicine but which is, moreover, still ongoing at the forefront of chemical and medical discovery. Those in particular involving its major such component, l-physostigmine, have led to an understanding of some of the fundamental mechanisms occurring in physiology, pharmacology and biochemistry and, either actually or potentially (by providing a template and thereby acting as a "lead compound") have provided a useful treatment for a variety of neurological disorders associated with irregularities in cholinergic transmission in which augmentation of cholinergic activity has proved to be beneficial. ![]() Free Download Barbara Katz Rothman, "The Biomedical Empire: Lessons Learned from the COVID-19 Pandemic" English | ISBN: 1503628817 | 2021 | 164 pages | PDF | 1113 KB We are all citizens of the Biomedical Empire, though few of us know it, and even fewer understand the extent of its power. In this book, Barbara Katz Rothman clarifies that critiques of biopower and the "medical industrial complex" have not gone far enough, and asserts that the medical industry is nothing short of an imperial power. Factors as fundamental as one's citizenship and sex identity-drivers of our access to basic goods and services-rely on approval and legitimation by biomedicine. Moreover, a vast and powerful global market has risen up around the empire, making it one of the largest economic forces in the world. Katz Rothman shows that biomedicine has the key elements of an imperial power: economic leverage, the faith of its citizens, and governmental rule. She investigates the Western colonial underpinnings of the empire and its rapid intrusion into everyday life, focusing on the realms of birth and death. This provides her with a powerful vantage point from which to critically examine the current moment, when the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the power structures of the empire in unprecedented ways while sparking the most visible resistance it has ever seen. ![]() Free Download Michael Livingston, "The Battle of Crécy: A Casebook " English | ISBN: 1781382700 | 2016 | 458 pages | PDF | 6 MB Winner of the Society for Military History Distinguished Book Award 2017 ![]() Free Download The Baby & Toddler Cookbook: Fresh, Homemade Foods for a Healthy Start by Karen Ansel, Charity Ferreira English | November 5th, 2021 | ISBN: 1740899806 | 176 pages | True EPUB | 6.17 MB More than ninety easy recipes for fresh, delicious foods designed to help children between three months and three years grow up healthy, happy, and strong. ![]() Free Download The Ancient State of Puyŏ in Northeast Asia: Archaeology and Historical Memory By Mark E. Byington 2016 | 414 Pages | ISBN: 0674737199 | PDF | 93 MB Mark E. Byington explores the formation, history, and legacy of the ancient state of Puyŏ, which existed in central Manchuria from the third century BCE until the late fifth century CE. As the earliest archaeologically attested state to arise in northeastern Asia, Puyŏ occupies an important place in the history of that region. Nevertheless, until now its history and culture have been rarely touched upon in scholarly works in any language. The present volume, utilizing recently discovered archaeological materials from Northeast China as well as a wide variety of historical records, explores the social and political processes associated with the formation and development of the Puyŏ state, and discusses how the historical legacy of Puyŏ its historical memory contributed to modes of statecraft of later northeast Asian states and provided a basis for a developing historiographical tradition on the Korean peninsula. Byington focuses on two major aspects of state formation: as a social process leading to the formation of a state-level polity called Puyŏ, and as a political process associated with a variety of devices intended to assure the stability and perpetuation of the inegalitarian social structures of several early states in the Korea-Manchuria region. ![]() Free Download The Analysis of Irregular Shaped Structures: Wood Diaphragms and Shear Walls, Second Edition by Terry R.
