It's no wonder you close up and want to become invisible. That's until Carl, my eternal crush, breaks up with his cheerleader girlfriend. I finally have a chance to seduce him, and there's a ball coming up that's the perfect place for a first romantic date. But going through a makeover turns to be an impossible task that makes me the target of more bullying. Looking for a bit of comfort in the fairytale items that my parents guard with their own lives, I try on the glass slippers they claim belonged to Cinderella.

Neurologic-Psychiatric Syndromes in Focus - Part I
Author: J. Bogousslavsky
Publisher: Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers
ISBN: 3318058599
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
After a period in which neurology and psychiatry have become more and more defined, neurologists' interest in psychiatric topics, and vice versa, has increased. This book provides readers with an overview of the most representative neuropsychiatric syndromes such as Ganser and Capgras syndromes. It fills an existing gap in current literature and reintroduces a clinical approach. Additionally, there is a historical perspective throughout time with a focus on the most relevant clinical syndromes, offering distinct value to readers. With this approach, the book serves as a useful and stimulating guide on the diagnosis and management of neurologic psychiatric syndromes. It is for neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychiatrists, and all others interested in neuropsychiatric topics because these syndromes also called 'uncommon' may in fact be more frequent than the literature suggests.
