Par Emily Singler. 2024
Precautions often apply to pregnancy in any workplace, but being a vet in practice presents additional specific risks. There are…
concerns and uncertainty about potential hazards, from radiation and inhalant anesthesia exposure, to zoonoses, and the additional mental stress in a profession that already carries high suicide risk. This book reviews considerations for professionals in clinical veterinary medicine (large and small animal) while pregnant and after giving birth. Veterinarian and veterinary writer, consultant, and mentor Dr Emily Singler speaks directly to veterinary team members (veterinarians, technicians, CSRs, assistants, students) who are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. She delivers scientific information on the specific risks to the mother and baby that may be encountered during pregnancy while working in veterinary medicine, with some of her own and others’ experiences to add perspective and humor. The book also covers topics related to mental health challenges, announcing a pregnancy and planning for parental leave, navigating the fourth trimester, and returning to work. We hope that having read this book, veterinary professionals – whether pregnant or working with pregnant colleagues – will feel better supported and empowered to make informed decisions.Big Witch Energy: Power Spells for Modern Witches

Par Michael Jackson, Kathryn Rountree, Nigel Rapport, Banu Senay, Max Harwood, Gil Hizi, Muhammad Kavesh, Gisella Orsini, Jaap Timmer. 2024
Many of us feel a pressing desire to be different—to be other than who we are. Self-conscious, we anxiously perceive…
our shortcomings or insufficiencies, wondering why we are how we are and whether we might be different. Often, we wish to alter ourselves, to change our relationships, and to transform the person we are in those relationships. Not only a philosophical question about how other people change, self-alteration is also a practical care—can I change, and how? Self-Alteration: How People Change Themselves across Cultures explores and analyzes these apparently universal hopes and their related existential dilemmas. The essays here come at the subject of the self and its becoming through case studies of modes of transformation of the self. They do this with social processes and projects that reveal how the self acquires a non-trivial new meaning in and through its very process of alteration. By focusing on ways we are allowed to change ourselves, including through religious and spiritual traditions and innovations, embodied participation in therapeutic programs like psychoanalysis and gendered care services, and political activism or relationships with animals, the authors in this volume create a model for cross-cultural or global analysis of social-self change that leads to fresh ways of addressing the 'self' itself.Google Discover verstehen und nutzen: Ein Leitfaden für Publisher (essentials)

Par Fumio Sasaki. 2018
Del autor del bestseller internacional Goodbye, Things, llega un nuevo fenómeno: una guía que nos ayudará a adoptar nuevos hábitos…
y a convertirnos en la mejor versión de nosotros mismos. Fumio Sasaki cambió su vida cuando se convirtió en minimalista, pero antes que nada tuvo que convertirlo en un hábito. Todos nosotros vivimos nuestras vidas basándonos en los hábitos que hemos ido formando, desde el momentoen que nos levantamos por la mañana hasta lo que comemos y bebemos o la probabilidad de que lleguemos a ir o no al gimnasio. En Buenos hábitos, Sasaki nos explica cómo podemos adquirir los nuevos hábitos que queremos y, lo más importante, cómo deshacernos de aquellos que no nos hacen ningún bien. Basándose en las principales teorías sobre la ciencia de la formación de hábitos de la psicología cognitiva, la neurociencia y la sociología,junto con ejemplos de la cultura popular y las técnicas experimentadas por el propio autor, Fumio Sasaki desentraña las percepciones erróneas y comunes sobre conceptos como «fuerza de voluntad» y «talento», ofreciendo una guía paso a paso hacia el equilibrio y el éxito, una serie de principios para crear unos buenos hábitos para mejorar y cambiar nuestra vida. La crítica ha dicho...«Una guía práctica que ofrece una metodología para desarrollar hábitos útiles y saludables. A aquellos a los que se les haga difícil establecer una rutina les encantará el método Sasaki.»Publishers Weekly«Solo diré que hoy mismo comienzo con un par de hábitos que, después de reflexionar, creo que van a ser beneficiosos para mi vida. ¡Muy recomendado!»Aytaragc, BabelioSodoma: Poder y escándalo en el Vaticano
Par Frédéric Martel. 2019
Sodoma expone la decadencia y la corrupción en el corazón del Vaticano y de la actual Iglesia católica. Es un…
libro con un claro mensaje al Vaticano de parte de todos los que anhelan una Iglesia inspirada en el Evangelio, una Iglesia para los pobres, los marginados y los desposeídos. Este brillante y perturbador trabajo, basado en cinco años de investigación rigurosa, incluye extensas entrevistas a los más altos cargos que ostentan el poder en el Vaticano.El libro revela la existencia de una camarilla gay en el Vaticano, en la que Frédéric Martel argumenta que sus orígenes vienen del papado de Pablo VI (1963 – 1978). Martel describe al Vaticano como «el mayor armario de la ciudad» y da pruebas de que un alto número de cardenales son homosexuales. Aun cuando estos mismos cardenales están entre la gente proponiendo decretos en contra del matrimonio homosexual y muchos otros temas relacionados con la moralidad sexual.Pero este libro también habla sobre corrupción en otras esferas del clero: el choque entre oficiales de la iglesia con regímenes fascistas que persiguen y torturan a gente inocente; turbios negocios inmobiliarios; la hipocresía al defender y proteger a curas pederastas; y, por encima de todo, la predominante cultura del clericalismo, a través del cual muchos escándalos son ignorados y dejados de lado. La crítica ha dicho...«La originalidad de su investigación es que establece la homosexualidad — una homosexualidad callada y mezclada de homofobia— como núcleo del sistema eclesiástico. [...] Es la llave que permite entender muchos de sus problemas.»El País «Un colosal ensayo fruto de cuatro años de investigación que revela la presencia mayoritaria de homosexuales en el clero, la jerarquía de la Iglesiacatólica y, sobre todo, en el Vaticano, hasta el punto de estructurar esa institución y de definirla.»El Mundo «Una bomba periodística que promete sacudir los cimientos de la Iglesia Católica y a la gran mayoría de sus representantes.»El Confidencial «Lo que era meramente anecdóticoadquiere por fin una visibilidad sociológica. Ya era hora.»Artículo de James Alison, uno de los sacerdotes entrevistados por Martel, en Jot Down «Cambiar la estructura es, honestamente, muy complejo. El papa no tiene realmente la capacidad para hacerlo solo.»Entrevista a Frédéric Martel a elDiario.es a través de EFE«No tengan miedo a su extensión porque estas páginas valen mucho la pena.»JNSP «Sexo, secretos y mentiras en el armario del Vaticano.»The Times «En Sodoma, Frédéric Martel describe un verdadero "sistema gay" en las altas esferas de la Iglesia. Su investigación será un hito.»Le PointThe Real Hergé: The Inspiration Behind Tintin
Par Sian Lye. 2020
&“If you are looking to understand a bit more about the circumstances that inspired The Adventures of Tintin—this book will provide…
a good snapshot.&” —The BookBuff Review Hergé created only twenty-four Tintin books which have been translated into more than seventy languages and sold 230 million copies worldwide.The Real Hergé: The Inspiration Behind Tintin takes an in-depth look at the man behind the cultural phenomenon and the history that helped shape these books. As well as focusing on the controversies that engulfed Hergé, this biography will also look at his personal life, as well as the relationships and experiences that influenced him.&“Tintin is more famous now than when Hergé was actually writing and illustrating his adventures. Sian Mye&’s book is another in the excellent series about the real lives of our most famous authors, and is well worth a look. Brilliant!&” —Books Monthly&“It is certainly possible to enjoy the Tintin books without knowing Hergé. But they are more interesting after learning about this complex, sometimes frustrating, man. We can learn from him, even if we learn from his mistakes.&” —Rose City ReaderNadie se arrepiente de ser valiente
Par Virginia Torrecilla. 2023
UNA VERDADERA LECCIÓN DE PASIÓN Y CORAJE DE UNA DE LAS FUTBOLISTAS MÁS QUERIDAS DE ESTE PAÍS «¿Qué es un…
tumor en el cerebelo? ¿Qué tengo que hacer? ¿Volveré a jugar?». Esas fueron las primeras preguntas que se le pasaron por la mente a la exitosa futbolista Virginia Torrecilla al recibir los resultados de las pruebas que le habían realizado a raíz de un persistente dolor de cabeza. Era el año 2020 y, aunque ella entonces no lo sabía, su vida acababa de cambiar para siempre.Desde sus primeros años en Mallorca, cuando su abuela la tenía que sacar a la fuerza del campo de fútbol en el que destacaba por encima de cualquier niño, hasta los momentos que marcaron el principio de una nueva era en el fútbol femenino en España o el día en que le detectaron un tumor cerebral que debía ser operado con urgencia, en este libro Virginia Torrecilla nos habla con el corazón en la mano de los sueños, de la incertidumbre, del cáncer, de la importancia del compañerismo, del miedo a la muerte, del regalo de estar viva… Y, principalmente, nos habla de superación, de esa capacidad que tiene el ser humano para seguir adelante día tras día pese a las mayores dificultades. Porque, como dice la propia Virginia, no nacemos valientes, el valiente se construye ante la adversidad. Reseñas: «Este libro que tienes en las manos no es un libro cualquiera, es más bien una sumade momentos que te harán reír, pensar, recordar, sentir e incluso llorar».DEL PRÓLOGO DE ALEXIA PUTELLAS «En estas páginas habéis descubierto el relatode unapersona que no ha tenido problema en plantarle cara a lavida una y otra vez, en reinventarse y seguir adelante».DEL EPÍLOGO DE NAHIKARI GARCÍA PÉREZA Matter of Appearance: A Memoir
Par Emily Wells. 2023
A dazzling memoir of chronic illness that explores the fraught intersection between pain, language, and gender, by a debut author.Emily…
Wells spent her childhood dancing through intense pain she assumed was normal for a ballerina pushing her body to its limits. For years, no doctor could tell Wells what was wrong with her, or they told her it was all in her head.In A Matter of Appearance, Wells traces her journey as she tries to understand and define the chronic pain she has lived with all her life. She draws on the critical works of Freud, Sontag, and others to explore the intersection between gender, pain, and language, and she traces a direct line from the &“hysteria patients&” at the Salpêtrière Hospital in nineteenth-century Paris to the contemporary New Age healers in Los Angeles, her stomping ground. At the crux of Wells&’ literary project is the dilemma of how to diagnose an experience that is both private and public, subjective and quantifiable, and how to express all this in words.&“Gorgeously written and brilliantly argued, A Matter of Appearance uses chronic illness as a lever to investigate the life of a body. It&’s complex, inconclusive, and incredibly clear-eyed. Moving fluidly between histories of psychoanalysis, desire, ambition, pathology, Wells reminds us of the liminal state we all live in between sickness and health.&”—Chris Kraus, author of Aliens & Anorexia and Summer of Hate
