Book Description Here from Joseph Glenmullen, M D , author of the landmark study Prozac Backlash, is the essential guide to helping millions of patients overcome antidepressant "addiction," dependence, and withdrawal by using a five-step program to safely and effectively taper off the drugs More than twenty million Americans -- одъэх including over one million teens and children -- take one of today's popular antidepressants, such as Paxil, Zoloft, or Effexor Dr Glenmullen, a graduate of HarvardMedical School, recognizes the many benefits of antidepressants and prescribes them to his patients, but he has also led the way in warning the public of the dangers associated with overprescribing these drugs Now, in the wake of overwhelming evidence, the FDA has finally stepped forward and urged pharmaceutical companies to include warning labels on antidepressants to caution doctors and patients that the drugs -- and more important, withdrawal from them -- may cause agitation, anxiety, hostility, impulsivity, and even suicidal tendencies Dr Glenmullen's last book, Prozac Backlash, sounded the alarm about possible dangers Now, this new book provides the solution The Antidepressant Solution is the first book to call attention to the drugs' catch-22: Although many people are ready to go off these drugs, they continue to take them because either the patient or the doctor mistakes antidepressant withdrawal for depressive relapse Unfortunately, approximately 70 percent of prescriptions for these drugs are written by family doctors who may not be familiar with the safest procedures to wean patients off them Now, however, The Antidepressant Solution offers a step-by-step guide for patients and doctors alike, including: 1 Evaluating whether the patient is ready to taper off the drug 2 Making the initial dosage reduction 3 Monitoring withdrawal symptoms 4 Making additional dosage reductions 5 Completing the taper safely Written by the premier authority in the field, The Antidepressant Solution is an invaluable book for all those concerned with going through the process -- from friends and family members to doctors and patients themselves.  2004 г 272 стр ISBN 0743269721.

Amazon com's Best of 2001Aimed at nothing less than totally restructuring the diets of Americans, Eat, Drink, and Be Healthy may well accomplish its goal Dr Walter C Willett gets off to a roaring start by totally dismantling one of the largest icons in health today: the USDA Food Pyramid that we all learn in elementary school He blames many of the pyramid's одъэщ recommendations--6 to 11 servings of carbohydrates, all fats used sparingly--for much of the current wave of obesity At first this may read differently than any diet book, but Willett also makes a crucial, rarely mentioned point about this icon: "The thing to keep in mind about the USDA Pyramid is that it comes from the Department of Agriculture, the agency responsible for promoting American agriculture, not from the agencies established to monitor and protect our health " It's no wonder that dairy products and American-grown grains such as wheat and corn figure so prominently in the USDA's recommendations Willett's own simple pyramid has several benefits over the traditional format His information is up-to-date, and you won't find recommendations that come from special-interest groups His ideas are nothing radical--if we eat more vegetables and complex carbohydrates (no, potatoes are not complex), emphasize healthy fats, and enjoy small amounts of a tremendous variety of food, we will be healthier You'll find some surprises as well, such as doubts about the overall benefits of soy (unless you're willing to eat a pound and a half of tofu a day), and that nuts, with their "good" fat content, are a terrific snack Relying on research rather than anecdotes, this is a solidly written nutritional guide that will show you the real story behind how food is digested, from the glycemic index for carbs to the wisdom of adding a multivitamin to your diet Willett combines research with matter-of-fact language and a no-nonsense tone that turns academic studies into easily understandable suggestions for living --Jill Lightner Book Description As seen on the Today show! The National Bestseller Based on Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Public Health Research A Revolutionary Guide to Healthy Eating That Topples the USDA Food Pyramid In Eat, Drink, and Be Healthy, Dr Walter Willett explains why the USDA guidelines -- the famous food pyramid -- are not only wrong but also dangerous Debunking current dietary myths such as the evils of eggs and how high milk consumption does a body good, Dr Willett sets an all-new nutritional standard You'll discover: eye-opening new research on the healthiest carbohydrates, fats, and proteins why weight control is the single most important factor menu plans and recipes that make it easy to reinvent your daily diet.  2005 г 352 стр ISBN 0743266420.

Buddha Mind in Contemporary Art documents the growing presence of Buddhist perspectives in contemporary culture This shift began in the nineteenth century and is now pervasive in many aspects of everyday experience In the arts especially, the increasing importance of process over product has promoted a profound change in the relationship between одыас artist and audience But while artists have been among the most perceptive interpreters of Buddhism in the West, art historians and critics have been slow to develop the intellectual tools to analyze the impact of Buddhist concepts This timely, multi-faceted volume explores the relationships between Buddhist practice and the contemporary arts in lively essays by writers from a range of disciplines and in revealing interviews with some of the most influential artists of our time Elucidating the common ground between the creative mind, the perceiving mind, and the meditative mind, the contributors tackle essential questions about the relationship of art and life Among the writers are curators, art critics, educators, and Buddhist commentators in psychology, literature, and cognitive science They consider the many Western artists today who recognize the Buddhist notion of emptiness, achieved through focused meditation, as a place of great creative potential for the making and experiencing of art The artists featured in the interviews, all internationally recognized, include Bill Viola, and Ann Hamilton Extending earlier twentieth-century aesthetic interests in blurring the boundaries of art and life, the artists view art as a way of life, a daily practice, in ways parallel to that of the Buddhist practitioner Their works, woven throughout the book, richly convey how Buddhism has been both a source for and a lens through which we now perceive art.  2004 г Твердый переплет, 280 стр ISBN 0520243463.

One of the most intriguing and little studied forms of nineteenth-century photography is the tintype Introduced in 1856 as a low-cost alternative to the daguerreotype and the albumen print, the tintype was widely marketed from the 1860s through the first decades of the twentieth century as the most popular photographic medium The picture-making одыах preference of the people, it was almost never used for celebrity portraiture: It was affordable, portable, unique and available almost everywhere Because of its ubiquity, the tintype provides a startlingly candid record of the political upheavals that rocked the four decades following the American Civil War-and the personal anxieties they induced As this book's author, Steven Kasher, argues, the tintype studio became a kind of performance space in which sitters could act out their personal identities Sitters brought to the tintype studio not just their family and friends but also the tools of their trade, costumes, toys, stuffed animals and other such props Often they would enact stereotypes and fantasies that reflected or challenged conventional gender, race and class roles Surprisingly, the tintype was almost exclusively an American phenomenon, rarely used in other countries, and this book demonstrates how this modest form of photography provides extraordinary insight into the development of national attitudes and characteristics in the formative years of the early Modern era Featured in this book are more than 200 remarkable examples of tintypes, mostly drawn from the Permanent Collection of the International Center of Photography in New York Steven Kasher is a gallery owner, writer, curator and publisher His gallery specializes in (but is not limited to) social, historical and art photography from the 1950s through the 1980s He is the author of Abbeville's The Civil Rights Movement: A Photographic History, 1954-68 (1996) and has curated exhibitions about the Movement for more than 20 institutions worldwide Over the past four years, he has made numerous critically acclaimed books with Steidl, among them Mike Disfarmer: Original Disfarmer Photographs (2005), Least Wanted: A Century of American Mugshots (2006), A Maysles Scrapbook: Photographs/Cinemagraphs/Documents (2007) and Chauncey Hare: Protest Photographs (2008).  2008 г Твердый переплет, 242 стр ISBN 3865216862.
