Sinopsis

Hippocrates of Kos (c. 460 - c. 370 BC) was a Greek physician of the classical period who is considered one of the most outstanding figures in the history of medicine. He is traditionally referred to as the “Father of Medicine” and the Hippocratic school of medicine revolutionized ancient Greek medicine, establishing it as a discipline distinct from other fields with which it had traditionally been associated (theurgy and philosophy), thus establishing medicine as a profession.
Our publishing house brings to the attention of readers the Aphorisms of Hippocrates, in the translation from ancient Greek into English made in the nineteenth century by Francis Adams, a Scottish medical doctor and translator of many Greek, Roman and Arabic ancient medical works.

    For more than thirty years, investigative journalist and New York Times bestselling author Craig Pittman has chronicled the wildest stories Florida has to offer. Featuring a selection of columns that have appeared in the Tampa Bay Times and other outlets throughout Pittman's career, this book highlights just how strange and wonderful Florida can be. 
     
     
     
    With a folksy style, an eye for the absurd, and a passion for the history and environment of his home state, Pittman describes some of Florida's oddest wildlife as well as its quirkiest people. The State You're In includes a love story involving the most tattooed woman in the world, a deep dive into the state's professional mermaid industry, and an investigation of a battle between residents of a nudist resort and the U.S. Postal Service. Pittman introduces listeners to a who's who of Florida crime fiction, a what's what of exotic animals, and an array of beloved places he's seen change rapidly in his lifetime. 
     
     
     
    Many of these stories are funny, some are serious, and several offer rare insights into the heart of the Sunshine State. For Pittman, Florida is both inspiring and dangerous—an "evolutionary test" for those who live in it. Together these pieces paint a complex picture of a fascinating state longing for an identity beyond palm trees and punchlines.

    The key to feeling good "down there" is understanding causes and solutions—there is relief from pelvic pain. 
     
     
     
    One in fifteen people report experiencing chronic pelvic pain, while many more suffer in silence. It's time to put aside the stigmatization and misdiagnosis! Dr. Sonia Bahlani has helped thousands of patients reclaim their lives at her New York City practice. With dual expertise in the fields of gynecology and urology—sought purposefully because she was interested in helping patients with pelvic pain—Bahlani is the doctor to address this common yet often-untreated condition. 
     
     
     
    In this book, Bahlani helps readers in multiple ways: she provides detailed information on what might be causing pain—from endometriosis to fibroids to prostate inflammation—through descriptions, questions, and case studies; and she reviews treatments, from what readers can expect in a doctor's office to what they can do at home. Her sympathetic bedside manner and extensive knowledge will help empower readers and give them renewed control over their own bodies.

    We live in a world where information takes on a life of its own and spreads rapidly. Faster than ever before. For some people, their lives depend on obtaining a steady stream of information as it affects their lives in the most telling ways. The daily news is the simplest example of this phenomenon. It is truly the lifeblood of society and helps us evolve into better informed individuals with every passing day. As one can tell, information on the whole comes at us from every direction. Its influence on business, politics, and government, banking, the STEM fields, and even the social sciences cannot be understated. But its journey begins with raw data being compiled by means of an experiment or study. In saying that, this book should serve as a reference guide for those who wish to go beyond the basics into territory that requires a solid understanding of advanced statistical concepts. Still, as a beginner, it will be wise to move forward with care so that you solidify your understanding before you begin to use these advanced methods. Finally, even if the subject matter is a bit deep, don’t be so serious that you forget to have fun with both the SPSS tool and the study of statistics on the whole. Having said that, let’s get to crunching numbers without any further delay!

    The running joke in Europe for centuries was that anyone in a hurry to die should call the doctor. As far back as ancient Greece, physicians were notorious for administering painful and often fatal treatments—and charging for the privilege. For the most effective treatment, the ill and injured went to the women in their lives. This system lasted hundreds of years. It was gone in less than a century. 
     
     
     
    Contrary to the familiar story, medication did not improve during the Scientific Revolution. Yet somehow, between 1650 and 1740, the domestic female and the physician switched places in the cultural consciousness: she became the ineffective, potentially dangerous quack, he the knowledgeable, trustworthy expert. The professionals normalized the idea of paying them for what people already got at home without charge, laying the foundation for Big Pharma and today's global for-profit medication system. A revelatory history of medicine, The Apothecary's Wife challenges the myths of the triumph of science and instead uncovers the fascinating truth. Drawing on a vast body of archival material, Karen Bloom Gevirtz depicts the extraordinary cast of characters who brought about this transformation. She also explores domestic medicine's values in responses to modern health crises, such as the eradication of smallpox, and what benefits we can learn from these events.

    To Everything a Season is a beautifully crafted personal and reflective account of many years of the changing seasons, from autumn    to autumn, in and around a village on the edge of the Cambridge Fenland. It is an uplifting reflection about change: what was, what is, what will be.   
    It is about the miracle of the rich gift of life. It is also about death, loss, and the rebirth of the old into something rich and strange.   
    But it is also a book suffused with a gentle humour, with a deep love and sympathy for our fellow creatures. Charles Moseley tackles what we have done to the world of which we are not owners or masters but stewards, not only for our children but for the whole web of life on which everything depends.
