"Both a grief book that doesn't read like a clinician's notes and a memoir wrapped around a bigger subject, All My Dead Cats takes grief from the taboo to the universal." — BooklistHave you suffered a loss? How was your life changed by the grief you experienced? Mourning is a personal experience and shouldn't be judged. There are no do-overs in death, but there are do-betters.All My Dead Cats is not a book about pet loss. You will meet award-winning journalist and debut author s.e. smith’s cats and read small slices of their stories. Their vignettes serve as an opening to scary conversations about loss, so grief can feel less intimidating and more relatable.This is a book about grief and mourning as collective activities best undertaken in community. S.e. interviews dozens of experts—from death doulas to funeral home directors to therapists and psychologists—and discusses the different stages of grief. The shared perspectives help us understand that grief is not fixable but it can be livable. They teach us that if we have the courage, which begins with honest conversations about how we navigate grief, then we can learn how to do better.After reading you'll better understand: <ul><li>Disenfranchised grief and how you can be part of the solution and not the problem</li><li>How to be an advocate for people subjected to trauma and violence</li><li>The stages of grief and how to process your experiences</li></ul> Grief is not over once the body is neatly disposed of, the rubble of the house has been taken away in dumpsters, the final fit on the prosthesis is done, the law is passed and withstands legal challenges, or when the permanent peace is brokered. It is an ongoing shift in our relationship to the world, and one that deserves attention and care as well as time and space to be amongst fellow mourners, to whom we do not need to justify or explain, because they understand where we are.Readers will feel seen rather than being chastised for how they grieve and better understand how to process mourning--and how to help others. All My Dead Cats provides an entry point, by beginning the conversation about a beloved pet, so readers can think about the larger stakes of death and live a more fulfilled life.

Practicing Good Grief in a Culture That Fears Mourning

All My Dead Cats and Other Losses

“A profound work of true beauty and mystery” ––Luis Alberto Urrea A fearless work from the prize-winning acclaimed author, composed over a period of some twenty years, Gravity is Elizabeth Rosner's profoundly searching account of her experience as the daughter of Holocaust survivors Composed over a period of some twenty years, Gravity is Elizabeth Rosner's profoundly searching account of her experience as the daughter of Holocaust survivors. In an extraordinarily powerful mix of poetry and prose, Rosner traces the earliest remembered resonances of her parents' past and her dawning awareness of the war history that colored her family home during her youth in Schenectady, New York. She recounts her false starts in raising the subject with her father (a survivor of Buchenwald concentration camp), his piecemeal revelations, and their eventual travels together to the sites of the nightmare in Germany. And she evokes, courageously and heart-wrenchingly, her search for identity against the gravitational pull of her parents' experience and the traditional upbringing they've given her. Like Rosner's celebrated novels, Gravity plumbs the deep complexities of inherited grief, but here the author discloses, with breathtaking candor and sensitivity, "what it felt like to grow up inside my family." Also featuring spellbinding artwork by Lola Fraknoi, these astonishing pages remind us that history happens at home and that the past is something we all embody, knowingly or not.

A Debutiful and She Reads "Most Anticipated" * A People "Must-Read Book" * A Good Housekeeping "Books Everyone Will Be Talking About This Summer""In the tradition of Gabrielle Zevin’s Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, Meg Charlton’s Voyagers is a finely written and propulsive novel about the enduring power of friendship. It takes on big issues: the reliability of memory, the price of childhood fame, the ways adults use children for their own purposes. It’s also a book about aliens, geared for terrestrials. Which is to say it’s complex and human, anchored by a beating heart.”—Joshua HenkinWhen the Signal—a mysterious transmission pulsing from the edge of the solar system— arrives, the world changes overnight. Planes are grounded, satellites fail, and speculation abounds. With many believing this could be first contact with extraterrestrial life, humanity holds its breath. But for Alex, a thirtysomething lawyer who’s spent years distancing himself from the unexplainable, the Signal feels deeply personal—the opening of an old wound.Decades ago, Alex and a girl named Ana both vanished for thirty-six hours while on vacation near Palm Springs. When they returned, dazed but unharmed, the six-year-olds’ account of their experience had all the hallmarks of an alien abduction. The media frenzy that followed made them famous, and the long months of child stardom, of talk shows and sitcom cameos, forged a seemingly unbreakable bond between them—until the mystery behind their disappearance began to tear them apart.Now, with the world on edge and the Signal growing stronger, Alex is drawn back to the one person who might have answers. Ana—now a professional advocate for experiencers of extraterrestrial contact—is leading a retreat near Palm Springs, a stone’s throw from the site of their childhood disappearance. As the former best friends tentatively reunite, what starts as a quest to confront the reality of their original experience becomes a larger reckoning with friendship, faith, family, and truth itself—what it means to see the stories we tell ourselves for what they really are.With the imaginative scope and propulsive storytelling of Station Eleven and The Ministry of Time, Voyagers is a thrillingly original and brilliantly ambitious literary debut about friendship at the end of the world.

Sie laden zum Innehalten ein, geben Anlass zum Gespräch und erinnern daran, dass selbst in herausfordernden Situationen Augenblicke der Nähe, des Verstehens und der Lebensfreude entstehen können.

¿ setzt Impulse zum Nachdenken - ohne erhobenen Zeigefinger.
¿ verbindet feinen Humor mit gesellschaftlicher Aufmerksamkeit.
¿ schafft Gesprächsanlässe zwischen Generationen und Lebenswelten.

The essential multimedia guide on the management of complex nerve injuries

Nerve surgery has fully come into its own as a complex, critical, and unique area in the broad field of surgery. Advancements in the management of complex nerve injuries that have occurred over the last three decades are reflected throughout the pages of Nerve Surgery, Second Edition. Edited by renowned nerve surgeon and professor Susan E. Mackinnon, the new edition features contributions from an impressive group of talented surgeons, clinicians, and scientists who are leaders in the field of nerve surgery.

The book features 22 chapters written by many new authors, with updates incorporated into practice in the last decade. Introductory chapters cover the history of nerve surgery and essential anatomy and physiology. The subsequent three chapters encompass patient evaluation, electrodiagnostic (EDX) examination of nerve injuries, and nerve repair and grafting principles. The core chapters discuss management of a full range of traumatic and idiopathic nerve syndromes, birth-related nerve injury, and peripheral nerve neoplasms. Technical aspects of nerve transfers, most defined by Mackinnon, are discussed in the updated chapters.

The classification of nerve injury has been clarified to recognize a Sunderland zero injury of ischemic block and the implication of immediate recovery of function with surgical decompression. Axonotmetic III as an indication for end to side nerve transfers is explained and the new concept of the critical plateau for functional recovery is introduced and its relationship to axonotmetic III EDX studies and surgical procedures is clarified. Understanding how to interpret EDX studies represents a paradigm shift in patient selection for nerve surgery. The EDX chapter in the second edition represents a unique collaboration between Mackinnon and neurology colleagues, Prof. Muhammad Al-Lozi and Prof. Robert C. Bucelli, over the last two decades on how to read EDX studies.

Key Highlights

- Seventy-eight online videos provide hands-on procedural guidance

- More than 1,100 high-quality illustrations and operative photographs enhance understanding of anatomy

- Basic to advanced techniques, including various nerve transfer procedures, processed allografts and conduits, and tendon transfers

- Completely new chapters focus on historical perspectives, postoperative rehabilitation of nerve transfers, and dissemination and implementation of science in nerve surgery

Like the acclaimed first edition, the updated publication is essential reading for all nerve surgeons, orthopedic, and plastic and reconstructive surgeons, while also providing a solid foundation of knowledge for neurosurgeons, neurologists, otolaryngologists, allied health specialists, and occupational and physical therapists treating patients with nerve injuries.

 

This print book includes a scratch off code to access a complimentary digital copy on MedOne.

The Grieving Body

From the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of Outlive comes a radical exploration of the science of heat adaptation and sweat therapy to tap into the evolutionary superpowers that we’ve forgotten we possess.What if the key to thriving in a hotter world isn’t avoiding the heat—but harnessing it?In Hotwired, bestselling author and science journalist Bill Gifford takes readers on a fascinating exploration of the power of heat to improve our performance and our health. Combining cutting-edge science, personal discovery, and practical insights, Gifford reveals how heat adaptation and heat therapy such as sauna can make us healthier, stronger, and even happier, by unlocking the body’s built-in tools to promote longevity and resilience.Through innovative research in evolutionary biology, physiology, and thermoregulation, Gifford uncovers how humans evolved to excel in sweltering conditions—and how we’ve lost touch with this ancient advantage. He plunges into the steamy world of Finnish saunas, serves as a test subject in cutting-edge heat labs, and tackles a grueling 100-mile bike ride under the blazing Texas sun—to show how temperature extremes can expand our physical and mental limits. He even explores how infrared sauna therapy may fight depression more effectively than medication—and how many people are rediscovering the power of communal wellness through the use of social sauna.Whether you’re looking to perform better, extend your healthy lifespan, adapt to a warming planet, or tap into the human connection that forms when we sweat together, Gifford reveals the incredible benefits of reawakening your body’s natural adaptability to heat and cold. You’ll discover how sweat is more than a cooling mechanism; it’s central to peak performance. We were born to sweat, and sweating makes us stronger.Hotwired shows how short-term discomfort transforms into long-term power. It’s a thrilling call to reimagine heat—not as a threat, but as a tool for survival and strength.
