Drawn from Dr. Bob Wendorf's 36-year career as a clinical psychologist, the book examines the lives of some of his most troubled patients in a project that aims to both educate and fascinate the listener. Clinical syndromes are described and dramatized by real-life case examples (altered only as necessary to protect patient confidentiality).

Stigmatizing
Revisado: 01-14-23
This book is awful. I wish I had never heard it. The author is frank about his personal thoughts about the patients he describes, lifting the veil on the relationship between patient and therapist. He describes laughing at patients with his colleagues, and brags about his "one shot wonders". When describing his young patients, you can hear the affection as he describes them with respect. But his adult patients who suffer from debilitating severe mental illness are treated like a circus sideshow in a chapter called "The Truly Crazies". In a chapter on suicide he is flippant and dismissive through much of it, informing us that most suicide attempts are by naive young people who have been dumped. There is no mention of the long lasting, deep psychic pain suffered by some with severe depression where every day can be a struggle to NOT end your life. I do not recommend this book to anyone.

How is it possible for the disciplines of cosmology, geology, anthropology, biology, and history to fit together? These 48 lectures answer that question by weaving a single story from accounts of the past developed by a variety of scholarly disciplines. The result is a story stretching from the origins of the universe to the present day and beyond, in which human history is seen as part of the history of our Earth and biosphere, and the Earth's history, in turn, is seen as part of the history of the universe.

A History Course Like None You've Ever Taken
- De Tommy D'Angelo en 02-05-17
Excellent introduction to Big History
Revisado: 01-05-23
Since the publication of this course, advances in physics, astronomy, and genetics have added greatly to the story of us. This course is an excellent place to start. Recently publushed audio books are available to travel further along the road and deeper into the forest of reality. Never stop being curious, never stop learning!

To have been alive during the last 60 years is to have lived with the music of Paul Simon. The boy from Queens scored his first hit record in 1957, just months after Elvis Presley ignited the rock era. As the songwriting half of Simon & Garfunkel, his work helped define the youth movement of the '60s. On his own in the '70s, Simon made radio-dominating hits. He kicked off the '80s by reuniting with Garfunkel to perform for half a million New Yorkers in Central Park. Five years later Simon's album Graceland sold millions. And it doesn't stop there.

If you love Paul Simon, you won't be disappointed
Revisado: 02-03-17
This is a complete biography of Simon's artistic work. At times triumphant, at others heartbreaking. The author doesn't shy away from Simon's weaknesses, either. This book will be greatly appreciated by his fans.
