Seventeen year old Leah Clark once roamed Whetstones halls without direction, as a loner against ludicrous lifestyles. While other students rehearsed their roles living ritualistic reputations, she often acted on impulses by skipping lines, and rebelling against the rubric. Unfortunately, a passion for politics wasn’t enough when it came to scholastic survival. Before the high school senior’s grades reached rock bottom, her mother flipped frantically through the yellow pages, seeking professional help. Luckily a local shrink was able to diagnose her psychological symptoms, and pinpoint a probable solution. However, Leah couldn’t help feeling skeptical as an unknown antidote was filled in her name. Never in her wildest dreams did she expect a few tablets to pave her rocky path from the inside out. From that point on, ingesting every dose was a breath of fresh air as Leah rejoiced in relaxation after unlocking an open minds initiative using a prince’s philosophy. Just as things were beginning to turn around, the magical medication falls into the wrong hands, putting Leah’s entire alter existence in jeopardy. As if chances for survival weren’t slim enough, rations were running short as doctors decided to discontinue further distribution behind enemy lines. Despite disadvantages, the teen continues to fight alongside her prince, putting newfound knowledge to the test in attempt to save an unwritten realm from realities destruction.

A distinguished political philosopher with years of experience teaching in undergraduate liberal arts programs, Anderson shows how the ideal of practical reason can reconcile academia’s research aims with public expectations for universities: the preparation of citizens, the training of professionals, the communication of a cultural inheritance. It is not good enough, he contends, to simply say that the university should stick to the great books of the classic tradition, or to denounce this tradition and declare that all important questions are a matter of personal or cultural choice.  By applying the methods of practical reason, instead, teachers and students will think critically about the essential purposes of any human activity and the underlying arguments of any text.

Emotional, behavioral, and neuropsychiatric conditions are common in individuals with intellectual disabilities (IDs), most notably epilepsy, aggression, self-injurious behaviors, and bipolar and other mood disorders. Despite the prevalence of such problems, there is a scarcity in the literature of reliable information on medical treatments for those with IDs. A Practitioner's Guide to Prescribing Antiepileptics and Mood Stabilizers for Adults with Intellectual Disabilities provides a detailed framework for prescribing for this challenging population. Featuring the most up-to-date information on factors that inform prescribing, the Guide addresses basic issues and controversies (e.g., the rift between evidence-based and personalized medicine) in treating adults with cognitive deficits. Clients' specific needs are emphasized in developing appropriate and effective pharmacological intervention for improved outcomes and quality of life. Drugs discussed in the Guide include carbamazepine, clonazepam, diazepam, ethosuximide, felbamate, gabapentin, lacosamide, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, lithium, lorazepam, oxcarbazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, pregabalin, primidone, rufinamide, tiagabine, topiramate, valproate, and zonisamide. For each of these compounds, the guidelines cover: Indications for use; relative and absolute contraindications.Assessment during treatment; therapeutic drug monitoring; warning signs and symptoms for caretakers.Dosage: administration; initial and maximum recommended dosage; modifications associated with drug-drug interactions, personal characteristics, and (where appropriate) genetic variations.Adverse drug reactions: common, relatively uncommon, and potentially lethal, plus risk of metabolic syndrome.Guidelines for discontinuation.References, tables, and drug utilization reviews.A Practitioner's Guide to Prescribing Antiepileptics and Mood Stabilizers for Adults with Intellectual Disabilities is an indispensable decision-making reference for psychiatrists, neuropsychologists, psychopharmacologists, neurologists, internists, and clinical psychologists.

An innovative new book prescribing the path to a better way of life for people with Alzheimer s disease and other forms of dementia. Written by Randy L. Griffin, a recognized expert in the field of dementia care, the book examines why people with dementia are often misunderstood by their families, by their caregivers and by society as a whole.

Half of all prescribed medicines are used in a sub-optimal manner and clinicians struggle to find ways of improving the situation. There is a move towards greater partnership with patients, but concordance (shared decision making between patients and healthcare professionals) is a growing challenge for the profession. This practical book offers numerous real life case studies to demonstrate the way the patient-centered model, combined with other behavioural models, can result in a logical approach to prescribing for difficult clints, including >non-compliant' and other challenging patients. Patient-Centered Prescribing fully considers the very complex nature of the issues at hand, ethical questions, time restrictions and financial matters, to produce a realistic analysis of the difficulties to be overcome in achieving better practice. This book is ideal for doctors, nurses and pharmacists, and postgraduate students of medicine, pharmacy and nursing. It is also of great interest to medical educators, particularly those teaching primary care and communication skills, and to everyone involved in developing doctor-patient partnerships.

In Is This the One?, Steve Arterburn---an award-winning author and the founder and chairman of New Life Ministries, the largest faith-based broadcast counseling and treatment ministry---has created a 'how to' plan for happier, stronger marriages. He contends that living in a 'no regrets' relationship can be as simple following this spiritually solid and personally drawn plan before the first 'I do' is even spoken. Host of the number one Christian radio broadcast, 'New Life Live!, ' Arterburn draws a painfully personal portrait of the devastation divorce has on a family. Rather than aiming at marriages already in jeopardy, Arterburn focuses attention on the beginning of relationships---before the commitment, before the emotional investment, before the children. He prescribes three sets of ten carefully devised dates designed to help couples reveal their true colors and clarify whether or not they are a compatible match. This practical, personal, and positive plan can impact marriages---and ground the skyrocketing divorce rate---as no other book has. Is This the One? is a must read for engaged or dating couples, happy singles, concerned parents, and anyone who wants to make better decisions about who to marry and who to leave behind.

Caresse Crosby rejected the culturally prescribed roles for women of her era and background in search of an independent, creative, and socially responsible life. Poet, memoirist, advocate of women’s rights and the peace movement, Crosby published and promoted modern writers and artists such as Hart Crane, Dorothy Parker, Salvador Dalí, and Romare Bearden. She also earned a place in the world of fashion by patenting one of the earliest versions of the brassiere.Behind her public success was a chaotic life: three marriages, two divorces, the suicide of her husband Harry Crosby, strained relationships with her children, and legal confrontations over efforts to establish a center for world peace. As the first biographer to consider both the literary and social contexts of Crosby’s life, Linda Hamalian details Crosby’s professional accomplishments and her personal struggles. The Cramoisy Queen: A Life of Caresse Crosby also measures the impact of small presses on modernist literature and draws connections between key writers and artists of the era. In addition to securing a place for Crosby in modern literary and cultural history, The Cramoisy Queen: A Life of Caresse Crosby contributes to the field of textual studies, specifically the complexities of integrating autobiography and correspondence into biography. Enhanced by thirty-two illustrations, the volume appeals to a wide range of readers, including literary critics, cultural historians, biographers, and gender studies specialists.

Nobel Prize winner Nadine Gordimer follows the inner lives of characters confronted by unforeseen circumstances. Paul Bannerman, an ecologist in South Africa, believes he understands the trajectory of his life, with the usual markers of vocation and marriage. But when he's diagnosed with thyroid cancer and, after surgery, prescribed treatment that will leave him radioactive-and for a period a danger to others-he begins to question, as Auden wrote, "what Authority gives / existence its surprise." As Paul recuperates in the garden of his childhood home, he enters an unthinkable existence and another kind of illumination-a process that will irrevocably change not only his life but the lives of his wife and parents. BACKCOVER: "More profound, more searching, more accomplished than what she was writing earlier in her long and distinguished career." -Los Angeles Times "Nadine Gordimer's work is endowed with an emotional genius so palpable one experiences it like a finger pressing steadily upon the prose." -The Village Voice "A timely novel and a provocative one: a novel to enjoy and ponder, as its characters all do, the dizzying complications inherent in human choice." -The Washington Times "I will always be grateful for the presence in the world of Nadine Gordimer, who has delivered in literature a South Africa most of us could not have known without her." -Gail Caldwell, The Boston Globe
