PTSD
Author: Allan V. Horwitz
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 1421426404
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
A comprehensive history of PTSD. Post-traumatic stress disorder—and its predecessor diagnoses, including soldier’s heart, railroad spine, and shell shock—was recognized as a psychiatric disorder in the latter part of the nineteenth century. The psychic impacts of train crashes, wars, and sexual shocks among children first drew psychiatric attention. Later, enormous numbers of soldiers suffering from battlefield traumas returned from the world wars. It was not until the 1980s that PTSD became a formal diagnosis, in part to recognize the intense psychic suffering of Vietnam War veterans and women with trauma-related personality disorders. PTSD now occupies a dominant place in not only the mental health professions but also major social institutions and mainstream culture, making it the signature mental disorder of the early twenty-first century. In PTSD, Allan V. Horwitz traces the fluctuations in definitions of and responses to traumatic psychic conditions. Arguing that PTSD, perhaps more than any other diagnostic category, is a lens for showing major historical changes in conceptions of mental illness, he surveys the conditions most likely to produce traumas, the results of those traumas, and how to evaluate the claims of trauma victims. Illuminating a number of central issues about psychic disturbances more generally—including the relative importance of external stressors and internal vulnerabilities in causing mental illness, the benefits and costs of mental illness labels, and the influence of gender on expressions of mental disturbance—PTSD is a compact yet comprehensive survey. The book will appeal to diverse audiences, including the educated public, students across the psychological and social sciences, and trauma victims who are interested in socio-historical approaches to their condition. Praise for Allan V. Horwitz’s Anxiety: A Short History “The definitive overview of the history of anxiety.”—Bulletin of the History of Medicine “A lucid, erudite and brisk intellectual history driven by a clear and persuasive central argument.”—Social History of Medicine “An enlightening tour of anxiety, set at a sensible pace, with an exceptional scholar and writer leading the way.”—Library Journal

A Dairy Farmer's Daughter
Author: E. D. Wott
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1477134603
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Growing up on a Dairy Farm in a small county in Ohio was not the easiest life. At most times it would become the enjoyment of times. I grew up watching birth, rebirth, death, and rebirth happen everyday in the first years of my life. The want to share to everyone and to let people know what kind of life I lived was a dream of mine. These poems represent my life. They're not your usual poetry reading material. Each one represents a day or week in my life whether I was strong, sad, happy, angry, delighted, or just feeling sexy. Over those years writing these poems became my diary. These tell the long nights, the deaths I encountered, and lives I helped. The love I shared for my family and animals I cared for hide within these pages. Written are words of my life, the Dairy Farmer's Daughter.

The Gene Factor
Author: M. J. Manley
Publisher: Strategic Book Publishing
ISBN: 1622120779
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
The Gene Factor by M. J. Manley portrays a "youthful" mission of the challenges to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that God manifests communications through the DNA of our very souls. The novel is a breakthrough scientifically, on how communications with a highly spiritual being - God - is manifest deep, deep down into the very soul of transmission genetic factors: the DNA cell. Scientific discoveries show how communications through gene factors are transmitted. The scripted discoveries in The Gene Factor tell how blessings, prayers, and having faith are communicated. Manley states that The Gene Factor is the most revolutionary novel ever written about how God communicates man. "I have written, I have researched, and I have documented all the information that is 'within, not without' that our heavenly father fulfills all the blessings, the prayers, and the hopes of all mankind and all religions from DNA." Deeply embedded in our DNA is where communications with God are sent, and where our heavenly father communicates back to us through the living cells and to answer our prayers. The Gene Factor is written so the layman can understand, but this concept is deeper than simply the story of genetic DNA. To fully understand, "I must present my theory and do presentations and promote my premises by giving lectures and appearances."

In the Midst of Pain
Author: Juanita R. McNeil
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1479730688
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
The reason why I wrote this book is that I am hoping that I can reachout to others who are in pain and hopefully help them persevere and cope through life's toughest battles. I want to encourage people who are in some type of pain in hopes that I can help them recover from it. Now, the first four chapters of this book is about my life as a child growing up in a vicious atmosphere and how this same vicious cycle always seems to repeat itself. This vicious cycle grew with me into my adulthood. This book also contains what reality is like for me and how it is for others. Reality is very different for each individual, and each individual deals with it differently. I will also tell you about how I dealt with the pain and how others can learn to deal with it too. Now, if there is someone out there who is in despair and thinks that death is the only answer to all their pain, well, please, I hope that you will continue to read this book. I do pray that it will help you or help you deal with someone you know who thinks that death is the only answer. Believe me when I say that death is not the answer, because it's not. So my purpose of my book is to help you change your perspective on life in THE MIDST OF PAIN. But it is only now that I have come to realize that after enduring some serious traumas in my life, life is good after all, and it is such a blessing to live for God. Just think how life can bring you understanding on how to use your pain as an opportunity to help others in need, who are right in the middle of a crisis. Just when you think you can't handle no more and that you feel like you are at the end of your rope, that is when God shows up, and God will show off his blessings in your life. Please believe me when I say that this is the most beautiful and wonderful feeling to ever have. No one can make you feel as good as God does. Now, not only will God make you feel good, but he will also change your life to the good. All you have to do is just reach out and take his hand, because he is waiting for you. This book is based on the facts and the truth about my life. Now, through the pain that I have endured, I have gained some insight for the purpose of my book. I am blessed to say that this book has changed my life, and I am in hopes that it will help change other people's lives too. The more I read my own book, the more I learn from it. I do hope that it will do the same for you too, for it is my desire to help all those who are in need of an answer. May God bless you as you read this book!
