Pages : 339
Book Description
"Warm and funny, and wonderful relief." Lev Parikian Simon Selwood is an academic expert on the mating behaviour of birds, but hopeless at finding human love. Then he meets Kim, and at last something is more important to him than ornithology. Kim doesn’t give a hoot about birds. And at first she isn’t very interested in Simon either. Relying on what he has gleaned from observing the opportunistic pied flycatcher and other species, plus the unorthodox advice of old friend Phil, Simon sets out on a mission to discover love for himself. But will he make the right choice? Odd Bird takes a light-hearted look at the battle of the sexes, drawing on the surprising parallels between the courtship behaviours of humans and birds. What people are saying about Odd Bird: "This quirky read is brimming with humour, endearing characters & references to our feathery friends." "Quirky, funny, uplifting and has a good pace – I’d happily recommend this." "A charmingly original read." "An unconventional love story, with a real feel of a Richard Curtis movie about it." "A rom-com from the male perspective and a refreshing change in the genre." "A heartwarming read, exactly what I need at the moment. If you liked The Rosie Project then you'll love this!" "A unique read with well-developed characters, witty and dry banter, great messages, and a lot of fascinating information about birds." "An enjoyable rollercoaster ride that’ll have you holding your breath till the very end." "Cleverly comic, beautiful crafted and sent this reader’s spirit soaring." "A treasure I intend to read again and again."

Body Of Winter

ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
In these exquisitely rendered poems, people fall in and out of love, in and out of religious belief and in and out of accepting the distance between their imagined lives and the lives they live. They look back as much as forward and pick mercilessly at the open wounds of failed relationships. They inhabit geographies that are both their emancipators and captors. And they find joy, or succumb to sorrow, amid life’s inescapable ephemerality and fragility. Breathtaking in its range of styles, Body of Winter, at its heart, is a vivid reflection of the best and worst of us all.

Neuropsychodynamic Psychiatry
Author: Heinz Boeker
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319751123
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 630
Book Description
This book presents a comprehensive neuropsychodynamic strategy for treating psychiatric disorders. Rather than pursuing an exclusively biological, psychological, or psychodynamic approach, it offers a methodology that links all three aspects in a unifying, integrative model. Central to this approach is the view of the brain as a bio-psychosocial organ in a neuro-ecological model, rather than the purely neuronal model often presupposed in current neuroscience and psychiatry. Moreover, the book views psychopathological symptoms as spatiotemporal disorders of the altered spatiotemporal structure spanning the brain and its surrounding world. The relation between one of the core symptoms and altered neuronal activity calls for the development of integrated, circular neuropsychodynamic models of psychopathological symptoms in severe psychiatric disorders and their treatment.
