      Suicide, Second Edition

      by Ron Salomon, M.D. and Christine Adamec

      Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people and the 11th leading cause of death for people of all ages. Family conflicts, legal or work problems, difficulty in school or social situations, and other stressful life events can all contribute to someone's choice to commit suicide. Physical or mental illnesses can also be significant factors. But the reasons behind suicide never justify the act. With treatment and help, allthese problems can be faced and overcome. Suicide explores the root causes of suicidal behavior, how to recognize it, and how those at risk can be aided. Chapters include: Suicide Case Studies Impulses, Emotions, and Suicide Anxiety and Suicide Mood Disorders and Suicide Suicide and Feeling "Different" in Teens Suicide

      Picturing the Western Front

      Photography, practices and experiences in First World War France

      by Beatriz Pichel

      Between 1914 and 1918, military, press and amateur photographers produced thousands of pictures. Either classified in military archives specially created with this purpose in 1915, collected in personal albums or circulated in illustrated magazines, photographs were supposed to tell the story of the war. Picturing the Western Front argues that photographic practices also shaped combatants and civilians' war experiences. Doing photography (taking pictures, posing for them, exhibiting, cataloguing and looking at them) allowed combatants and civilians to make sense of what they were living through. Photography mattered because it enabled combatants and civilians to record events, establish or reinforce bonds with one another, represent bodies, place people and events in imaginative geographies and making things visible, while making others, such as suicide, invisible. Photographic practices became, thus, frames of experience.

      The independent man

      Citizenship and gender politics in Georgian England

      by Matthew McCormack, Pamela Sharpe, Penny Summerfield, Lynn Abrams, Cordelia Beattie

      'Independence' was an important ideal for men in Georgian England. In this period, however, the word meant much more than simply the virtues of self-sufficiency and impartiality. Most people believed that obligations absolutely compromised freedom and conscience, whereas 'independence' was associated with manly virtue and physical vigour. Fundamentally, the political world was thought to consist of 'independent men', exercising their consciences and standing up for the general good. As such, Georgians thought about political action and masculine virtue very differently to the ways in which we do today. In study, newly available in paperback, Matthew McCormack establishes the links between the histories of masculinity and politics, highlighting the centrality of 'manly' ideals in the political world and - conversely - the role of politics in the operation of gender ideology. ;

      Gedanken über die Lebenskunst

      by Giacomo Casanova, Eckart Kleßmann, Eckart Kleßmann

In die Weltliteratur eingegangen ist er mit seinen Lebenserinnerungen (Histoire de ma vie), die erst 30 Jahre nach seinem Tod gedruckt wurden.Gedanken über die Zeitläufte und das menschliche Verhalten, über die Liebe, die Lust und das Laster, über die Frauen, Gott und die Welt, die sich in seinem ganzen Werk verstreut finden, sind hier zu einem Lesebuch zusammengefaßt und enthalten die praktische Lebensphilosophie eines Mannes, der im Bewußtsein vieler – zu Unrecht – nur noch als der große Verführer und Liebhaber weiterlebt

      Critical theory and Independent Living

      by Teodor Mladenov

      Critical theory and Independent Living explores intersections between contemporary critical theory and disabled people's struggle for self-determination. The book highlights the affinities between the Independent Living movement and studies of epistemic injustice, biopower, and psychopower. It discusses in depth the activists' critical engagement with welfare-state paternalism, neoliberal marketisation, and familialism. This helps develop a pioneering comparison between various welfare regimes grounded in Independent Living advocacy. The book draws on the activism of disabled people from the European Network on Independent Living (ENIL) by developing case studies of the ENIL's campaigning for deinstitutionalisation and personal assistance. It is argued that this work helps rethink independence as a form of interdependence, and that this reframing is pivotal for critical theorising in the twenty-first century.

      The Complete Collection of Modern Chinese Prints by Lu Xun

      by Editorial Board of the Complete Works of Modern Chinese Prints Collected by Lu Xun

      This series contains about 1,800 modern prints collected by Lu Xun at that time, which authored by nearly 200 domestic printmakers and currently in the Lu Xun Memorial Hall in Shanghai and the Lu Xun Museum in Beijing. It is showcasing the glorious history of modern Chinese woodcut art: In the 1920s and 1930s, in order to guide the artistic direction of Chinese literary youth, smashed the KMT’s counter-revolutionary cultural " encirclement and suppression", Mr. Lu Xun held a "woodcut workshop" in Shanghai, and cultivated a group of emerging woodcut backbone. These backbones led young artists in various regions of the country to create a large number of realistic works reflecting the suffering and tragic fate of the people at the bottom of the society at that time. They cruelly lashed the dark reality of society and called for national salvation and survival. These young woodcutters sent their woodcut works to Lu Xun, who not only guided their creation personally, but also spared no effort to collect, publicize and promote them to the public. With the active advocacy and support of Mr. Lu Xun, the emerging woodcut movement in China has developed vigorously, driving the modernization of Chinese art and leaving an indelible glorious footprint in the history of Chinese modern culture and art. This complete collection is a companion to the The Complete Collection of Foreign Prints by Lu Xun published in 2014.

      Giacomo Casanova über Glück, Liebe, Frauen

      by Giacomo Casanova, Ursula Voß

      Giacomo Casanova (1725 –1798) lebte sein ausschweifendes Liebesleben zum Genuß der lesenden Nachwelt. In der zwölfbändigen Histoire de ma vie, entstanden 1790, erzählt der berühmte Abenteurer und Frauenheld mit größter Offenheit aus seinem wechselvollen und ungewöhnlichen Leben, das ihn durch das Europa der Rokokozeit führte: Vom begabten Schüler zum Doktor beider Rechte, vom Kardinalsekretär in Rom zum Theatergeiger, Lotterieeinnehmer und Geheimagenten. In seinen Erinnerungen erweist sich Casanova als Kenner der Welt und des menschlichen Herzens, der die Frau nie zum Lustobjekt herabwürdigte, sondern als gleichwertige Partnerin schätzte und zum Dreh- und Angelpunkt mannigfacher Reflexionen macht. Casanova liebt die Frauen um ihrer selbst willen; nur in dem ekstatischen Glück, zu dem er sie »verführt«, kann er selbst höchste Seligkeit finden. Ursula Voß hat aus Casanovas Histoire de ma vie kurze, prägnante Textstellen über Glück, Liebe und Frauen ausgewählt und ihre Auswahl mit einem Nachwort versehen.

      The City of Melancholy

      The City of Melancholy

      by Zhang Min

      The novel has discussed the inherent complexity of human emotions. Yi Hong, a successful woman with perfect career and family, commits suicide for no reason, and she is also both the unforgettable first love and ex-fiancee of the protagonist. Driven by a series of suspense, the career development and emotional experience of the protagonist have gradually surfaced along with the rapid urbanization process since the beginning of 20th century and the restless desire in human life. Taking an objective perspective, the novel has depicted the intricate secular life and exposed the nature of emotions by taking away the excessive covers over life: in the end, the lost love, the possession and loss in life as well as the tangled cause-and-effect transmigration are a mirror that the middle-aged who are tempted by reality and desire fear to look into.

      Riceland Spiders of South and Southeast Asia

      by A T Barrion, Jim A Litsinger

      Spiders are among the most omnipresent and numerous predators in both agricultural and natural ecosystems, and without them insect pest populations would become out of control. Their potential as biological control agents can only be appreciated through a greater understanding of their abundance and species composition in different ecological systems. There is therefore a great need for literature providing guidance on spider identification. The spider fauna of several cultivated crops, in a number of regions of the world, has been well documented. There have been some previous attempts to record the spider fauna of rice in South and Southeast Asia, but these are scattered in the journal literature. This volume provides a comprehensive illustrated guide that can be used by specialists and novices to identify these spiders. The majority of the species covered were collected from a diversity of habitats in the Philippines. The bulk of the book consists of keys to the identification of families, genera and species of Philippine spiders, illustrated by more than 1000 line drawings and 100 colour photographs. A total of 339 species belonging to 134 genera within 26 families are recognized. Of these, 253 species and seven genera are new to science. Distribution maps for individual species and a classification scheme for Philippine riceland spiders are also provided. Overall, the work represents a major contribution to the literature for those interested in spiders or more generally in biological control and crop protection.

      The silence of Barbara Synge

      by Bill McCormack

      'The silence of Barbara Synge' provides a fascinating companion volume to Bill McCormack's acclaimed 'Fool of the family' (2000), a biography of the playwright J.M. Synge (1871-1909). Taking the alledged death of Mrs John Hatch (née Synge) in 1767 as a focal point, this book explores the varied strands of the Synge family tree in eighteenth and nineteenth century Ireland. Key events in the family's history are carefully documented, including a suicide in 1769 which is echoed in an early Synge play, the effects of the famine which influenced 'The playboy of the western world' in 1907, and the behaviour of Francis Synge at the time of the union. 'The silence of Barbara Synge' is a unique work of cultural enquiry, combining archival research, literary criticism, and religious and medical history to pull the strands together and relate them to the family's literary descendent J.M. Synge. ;

      Self-medication in Pregnancy and Breast-feeding

      Counselling handbook

      by Dr. Annette Abhau

      Cough, hay fever or herpes are at least as troublesome during pregnancy and breast-feeding as under normal “conditions” - and yet everything is different. Physiological changes to the body in pregnancy and lactation, together with the vulnerability of the unborn baby or infant, set particular requirements when selecting the correct, safe medication. Especially in the area of self-medication, the needs of pregnant and breast-feeding women for information are great and call for competent advice! This comprehensive handbook is the key: General information about pharmacotherapy, supplementary measures, vaccinations, questions about diet and infections in pregnancy and lactation creates a broad knowledge base. The core feature of the book are the traffic light tables, with precise recommendations for medicinal products for all types of treatment. All the important indications for selfmedication in pregnancy and lactation are listed and the tables are supported by detailed explanations of the individual assessments. The sections “Advice from medical specialists” are particularly useful, with additional tips from gynaecologists and “Footnotes” with relevant information on the use of prescription- only medicines – and as the ultimate practical tool: the enclosed sales counter leaflets with all traffic light tables to enable quick reference for first-class advice!
