Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern day psychiatry is doing a disservice to humanity. It is not dealing with the epidemic of unhappiness. It is configured as such that it unable to and incapable of helping mankind by reducing its suffering from unhappiness. Most psychiatric diagnoses are arbitrarily 'operationalised' into 'clinical' and 'non-clinical' syndromes. Unless it is clinical, it is non clinical, regardless of someone's subjective suffering. This book challenges these constructs and calls for remedies to address this artificial distortion. This book challenges modern medicine and contemporary psychiatry to unshackle psychiatrists from artificially restricted roles as 'scientific' medical men. Psychiatrists are invited to review thier roles and explore if they are able to become locality healers of emotional pain and suffering; using effective modern medicines freely and as first-line treatments, alongside all types of social, traditional, alternative, spiritual, psychological and medicinal interventions as local 'elders', 'gurus' ' and 'wise men and wise women'. Unhappiness is widespread that this restrictive role for psychiatrists, who are completely different from other physicians and surgeons, makes them limit their potential benefit to society. They are different by virtue of dealing with the whole human, yet they are not really 'whole-istic'. They cannot ever imagine to be 'Holistic' when they are shackled in this artificially restrictive professional bind of wanting to be 'scientific'. This book challenges psychiatrist to see their role as far bigger, far more artistic and humanistic than solely scientific.

Book excerpt: 'An excellent book, the most objective short account I know of all the various approaches to depression.' Anthony Storr Several years ago, Lewis Wolpert had a severe episode of depression. Despite a happy marriage and successful scientific career, he could think only of suicide. When he did recover, he became aware of the stigma attached to depression - and just how difficult it was to get reliable information. With characteristic candour and determination he set about writing this book, an acclaimed investigation into the causes and treatments of depression, which formed the basis for a BBC TV series. This paperback edition features a new introduction, in which Wolpert discusses the reaction to his book and BBC series, and recounts his own recurring struggle with depression.

Book Synopsis Treatment-Resistant Depression by : Siegfried Kasper
Download or read book Treatment-Resistant Depression written by Siegfried Kasper and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-06 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treatment-resistant Depress Successful management of patients with treatment-resistant depression requires a thorough understanding of the biological basis for both the depression and its failure to respond to standard treatments. This book clearly and succinctly summarizes the latest scientific research and its applications in clinical practice. A first step is a clear definition of what constitutes treatment-resistant depression so that clinical trials and other studies are using common criteria, enabling comparison and meta-analysis of their outcomes. The opening chapter reviews definitions and predictors of treatment-resistant depression originating from different fields and discusses their usefulness in clinical practice and clinical research. The next chapter proposes a new definition, adapting terminology from medicine. Biological classification requires identification of genetic risk factors and gene variants have been identified as accounting for 50% of the variance in the clinical outcomes of antidepressant treatments. Chapter 3 describes several genes already associated with treatment-resistant depression and, while further work is needed to translate findings into clinical recommendations, suggests that genetic prediction of treatment resistance could become a widespread clinical reality within a few years. Most patients with treatment-resistant depression will be treated pharmacologically, so three chapters review the latest evidence for pharmacological best practice in switching strategies for antidepressants, the role of antipsychotics and augmentation strategies to complement lithium. There are two major alternatives to pharmacotherapy: neuromodulation and psychotherapy. The brain intervention chapter summarizes clinical research and experience with electroconvulsive therapy, transcranial magnetic stimulation, vagus nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation and magnetic seizure therapy. The final chapter reviews the literature pertaining to the effectiveness of various forms of psychotherapy in patients who have not responded to antidepressant pharmacotherapy, explaining that patients who have not responded to one or two trials of antidepressant medication have a 30%-50% chance of responding to a focused psychotherapy. It proposes indications for psychotherapy in treatment-resistant depression and summarizes general therapeutic principles. Essential reading for all psychiatrists managing patients with this distressing disorder.
Download or read book Depression written by B. Mahendra and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to acknowledge the universality of depression, to throw some light on those aspects of depression which are neglected in the more conventional treatments of the subject and also to attempt to provide a synthesis between the biological and socio-environmental factors which lead to the onset of depression and modify its course. A book devoted to depression has the advantage that it has the space at its disposal to explain and clarify concepts and promising ideas that a chapter in even a comprehensive textbook does not have. A single author writing about all the relevant aspects of a subject brings with him the merit of uniformity, continuity and lack of repetition. He is also more fallible in some areas than others, which finds an exact parallel in the experience of clinicians in their practice. A multi-author, multi-specialist work portrays an air of omniscience and omnicompetence which many clinicians find dispiriting. It is likely a considerable number of practising clinicians will have a greater knowledge and experience in some areas of the subject of this book. than I have and will feel emboldened to approach others. The entire work is informed by historical considerations. The lesson of history is to be open-minded and not to judge too harshly those that have gone before.

Book excerpt: Kismet is a state of being and living. For too long humans have forgotten how to exist with true wisdom. Instead of being connected with this divine force and engaging our intrinsic wisdom to guide our lives, we have created a detached reality void of connectedness. We have surrendered our power and knowledge to others and become a homogenized society through brainwashing, mistruth, chemicals, propaganda and fear mongering. As a benevolent race it is time for humanity to reclaim the greatest gift bestowed to us, love and wisdom. It is time to realign with the Christ Consciousness through Kismet.

Book Synopsis Transforming Depression by : David H. Rosen
Download or read book Transforming Depression written by David H. Rosen and published by Nicolas-Hays, Inc.. This book was released on 2002-05-01 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking book, David H. Rosen, M.D., offers depressed individuals, their families, and therapists a lifesaving course in healing the soul through creativity. This is a book about transforming depression and its powerful pull toward suicide into a meaningful alternative. In Transforming Depression, Dr. Rosen applies Carl Jung's method of active imagination to treating depressed and suicidal individuals. Having dealt with depression in his own life and the suicides of loved ones, Dr. Rosen shows that when people learn to confront the rich images and symbols that emerge from their struggles, they can turn their despair into a fountain of creative energy. He details the paths of four patients whose work in painting, pottery, and dance -- in conjunction with psychotherapy -- led them from depression to a more meaningful life. Their dramatic paintings illustrate the text. Part One presents an overview of the biological, psychological, sociological, and spiritual factors involved in the diagnosis of depression. Part Two provides a new therapeutic approach to treating depression, focusing on the symbolic death and rebirth of the ego (ego-cide) as an alternative to suicide. Part Three presents in-depth case studies from Dr. Rosen's practice. Part Four discusses how we can recognize crisis points and how creativity can transform depression. The author pays particular attention to the problem of teen suicide.

Book Synopsis Harry Potter’s World Wide Influence by : Diana Patterson
Download or read book Harry Potter’s World Wide Influence written by Diana Patterson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10-02 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Harry Potter series forms a single epic story that has been published in nearly 70 languages, and has been examined in a large number of disciplines. This collection of essays contributes to the scholarly discourse that forms Potter Studies. These essays take on the consideration of Rowling's work as being worthy of study as a phenomenon and influence, as well as a work of literary value. They add genuine statistical information about the reasons for the books' popularity, consider their effects on child readers, and examine some deep-rooted reasons for their having been manipulated in American publishing, in film adaptations, in musical complements, and in their thingification in popular culture around the world. Some of these essays take on the critics of the books' religion and considerations of psychological, as well as philosophical good and evil, and well as some stylistic anomalies. The fact that scholars from China, Germany, Poland, Romania, and Israel, in addition to English-speaking nations, have felt compelled to examine these books in detail testifies in part to Harry Potter's world-wide influence.
