ADHD Does not Exist
ADHD Does not Exist
Saul, Richard
¥88.56
A radical new response to a widely misunderstood conditionWe are witnessing a global epidemic of attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder. Millions are suffering from attention issues, while millions more are reliant on stimulant medication to perform at school and at work. Despite decades of advancements in neuroscience, the definition of ADHD has remained essentially unchanged since its introduction in 1980, and its prevalence in the population has skyrocketed.In this controversial and landmark work, Dr. Richard Saul draws from five decades as a practicing physician and researcher in the field to contend that the definition of ADHD as we know it is completely wrong. Instead, he argues that the "disorder" is a cluster of symptoms stemming from more than twenty other conditions, each requiring separate treatment. The detailed list ranges from mild problems like poor eyesight, sleep deprivation, and even boredom in the classroom, to more severe conditions like depression and bipolar disorder.Through the lens of history and into the present day, Dr. Saul examines "ADHD," exploring the rising cultural and medical trends that have birthed the stimulant epidemic. Both comprehensive and illuminative, ADHD Does Not Exist is essential reading for doctors, practitioners, educators, and individuals who are seeking an honest approach to understanding and treating this complex condition.

Moral Mind
Moral Mind
Haslam, Henry
¥63.67
The reality and validity of the moral sense - which ordinary people take for granted - took a battering in the last century. Materialist trends in philosophy, decline in religious faith, and a loosening of traditional moral constraints contributed to a shift in public attitudes, with many decent honest folk both aware of a questioning of moral claims and uneasy with a world that has no place for the moral dimension. Haslam shows how important the moral sense is to the human personality and exposes the weakness in much current thinking that suggests otherwise. His goal is to help the reader to a mature and confident understanding of the moral mind, which constitutes an essential part of what it is to be human.

Ever since the Big Uneasy, Dan Chambeaux worked as a human private investigator in the Unnatural Quarter. Even being murdered doesn't keep a good detective down, and zombie Dan "Shamble" is back from the dead and back on the case! And what strange cases they are. Shamble is faced with mummies suing their museums, living-undead political tensions, defending a mixed race couple (he's a vampire, she's a werewolf) from housing discrimination, a serial scalper targeting werwolves, and a standard lost dog case with a hellhound. And above all, he's got to figure out a very personal question: who killed him? Shamble must team up with his ghost girlfriend Sheyenne, a bleeding-heart human lawyer named Robin Deyer, and his BHF (Best Human Friend) Officer Toby McGoohan to seek justice for the denizens of the Unnatural Quarter. In these four volumes— Death Warmed Over, Unnatural Acts, Working Stiff, and Hair Raising —Dan Shamble puts the P.I. back into R.I.P.

这是一本帮助你用超级记忆法来提高学习效率和学习能力的书。 本书介绍的记忆方法与我在复旦大学教过朋友们的方法完全一样。当时别人问我怎么可能仅仅用考前一个晚上时间,记住了汉语课上数百个新单词,而且还记住了它们在课本里出现的位置。我可以轻松运用复杂的数学公式,终在考试中获得了高分。经过短暂的练习,他们也获得了这种一开始看来似乎不可能拥有的技能。我告诉他们,我并没有特异功能或者超凡天赋:轻松地记忆大量信息的能力关乎态度,而不是运气;技巧胜于天赋。如果这是一个技巧的问题,那么任何人都可以学习并使用它。 这本书里,你会学到比尔盖茨如何记住所有员工的车牌号,传教士利玛窦如何过目不忘背诵中国诗词。你们也会学会怎样快速学习英文和其他语言,学会快速记下复杂数学公式并熟练运用。 这本书里,你会遇到一些有趣的角色。从几十万年前生活在东亚的北京猿人到一位生活在泰国能每天读一本新书的美国人,从北京即兴戏剧的女演员到古希腊时期的诗人。这些角色中的每一个都呈现了我们的记忆如何工作以及如何有效地使用我们的记忆。 对中小学生、大学生,以及教育工作者和家长来说,它是一本简单易懂并寓教于乐的超级记忆法教科书。对有意提升自己学习能力和拓展思维方模式的年轻人来说,这也是一本既有实用价值又开阔眼界的自我进修读物。
