Download or read book Unlearning Migraine written by Inés Goicoechea and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-16 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 15% of the world's population suffers from migraine. Experts say that it is a genetic brain disease, of unclear origin, and irreversible. To alleviate the suffering and disability, they propose to lead an orderly life, identify and avoid triggers and put oneself in the hands of a neurologist, who will prescribe painkillers and sometimes preventive treatment. Neurologist Arturo Goicoechea puts forward a novel and contrasting hypothesis, based on research in Neuroscience and Biology: migraine is not transmitted by genes, but the consequence of the Neuroimmune System's learning process. And if it can be learned, it can be unlearned. It is not an alternative therapy, but an alternative to therapies. Many sufferers of migraine and other chronic pains have already benefited from this approach. The author encourages you to discover the proposal of Know pain, no pain, which is biologically correct -and politically incorrect-: understanding pain puts you on the path to getting rid of it. It is not necessarily easy to apply, but it is simple: migraine and other chronic pains occur in a completely healthy organism, that the organism itself protects in a disproportionate way. Ten years later, after the success of "Migraña, una pesadilla cerebral" (Migraine, a Brain Nightmare), this new book aims to be a script and practical support for dealing with migraine, accompanying the reader in the advances and successes on pain and discomfort and encouraging the reader to continue, in the setbacks and complications of the journey. It is possible to deconstruct, unlearn migraine, and that is what this book is all about. Reviews from "Migraine, a brain nightmare" on Amazon: "Dr. Goicoechea is a genius. I've had migraines for over 35 years, getting worse and worse, and I found this book by chance. (...) It has changed me completely, now I understand how migraines work. I've been training my brain for days, talking to it and it works. (...) Thank you Doctor, millions of thanks." "(...) what I can say is that the intensity of the attacks has been reduced up to 80% and what is better, I have not taken any triptan or other analgesic for more than a month. The fundamental thing is to believe in what the book explains and that it is possible to control and even eradicate migraine attacks." "Magnificent. This is how chronic pain should be tackled. More education in pain neurobiology and fewer pills. Knowing pain, understanding it, helps to overturn false beliefs about pain and injuries and this in many cases affects the perception of pain. Go Arturo Goicoechea!" Arturo Goicoechea Uriarte Neurologist. Born in Mondragón, Guipúzcoa, in 1946.

Download or read book The Promise of Happiness written by Sara Ahmed and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Promise of Happiness is a provocative cultural critique of the imperative to be happy. It asks what follows when we make our desires and even our own happiness conditional on the happiness of others: “I just want you to be happy”; “I’m happy if you’re happy.” Combining philosophy and feminist cultural studies, Sara Ahmed reveals the affective and moral work performed by the “happiness duty,” the expectation that we will be made happy by taking part in that which is deemed good, and that by being happy ourselves, we will make others happy. Ahmed maintains that happiness is a promise that directs us toward certain life choices and away from others. Happiness is promised to those willing to live their lives in the right way. Ahmed draws on the intellectual history of happiness, from classical accounts of ethics as the good life, through seventeenth-century writings on affect and the passions, eighteenth-century debates on virtue and education, and nineteenth-century utilitarianism. She engages with feminist, antiracist, and queer critics who have shown how happiness is used to justify social oppression, and how challenging oppression causes unhappiness. Reading novels and films including Mrs. Dalloway, The Well of Loneliness, Bend It Like Beckham, and Children of Men, Ahmed considers the plight of the figures who challenge and are challenged by the attribution of happiness to particular objects or social ideals: the feminist killjoy, the unhappy queer, the angry black woman, and the melancholic migrant. Through her readings she raises critical questions about the moral order imposed by the injunction to be happy.

Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of State Sponsored History After 1945 written by Berber Bevernage and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 868 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides the first systematic integrated analysis of the role that states or state actors play in the construction of history and public memory after 1945. The book focuses on many different forms of state-sponsored history, including memory laws, monuments and memorials, state-archives, science policies, history in schools, truth commissions, historical expert commissions, the use of history in courts and tribunals etc. The handbook contributes to the study of history and public memory by combining elements of state-focused research in separate fields of study. By looking at the state’s memorialising capacities the book introduces an analytical perspective that is not often found in classical studies of the state. The handbook has a broad geographical focus and analyses cases from different regions around the world. The volume mainly tackles democratic contexts, although dictatorial regimes are not excluded.

Book excerpt: What does it mean to publish today? In the face of a changing media landscape, institutional upheavals, and discursive shifts in the legal, artistic, and political fields, concepts of ownership, authorship, work, accessibility, and publicity are being renegotiated. The field of publishing not only stands at the intersection of these developments but is also introducing new ruptures. How the traditional publishing framework has been cast adrift, and which opportunities are surfacing in its stead, is discussed here by artists, publishers, and scholars through the examination of recent publishing concepts emerging from the experimental literature and art scene, where publishing is often part of an encompassing artistic practice. The number and diversity of projects among the artists, writers, and publishers concerned with these matters show that it is time to move the question of publishing from the margin to the center of aesthetic and academic discourse.

Download or read book Breaking the Surface written by Douglass Whitfield Bailey and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Breaking the Surface, Doug Bailey offers a radical alternative for understanding Neolithic houses, providing much-needed insight not just into prehistoric practice, but into another way of doing archaeology. Using his years of fieldwork experience excavating the early Neolithic pit-houses of southeastern Europe, Bailey exposes and elucidates a previously under-theorized aspect of prehistoric pit construction: the actions and consequences of digging defined as breaking the surface of the ground. Breaking the Surface works through the consequences of this redefinition in order to redirect scholarship on the excavation and interpretation of pit-houses in Neolithic Europe, offering detailed critiques of current interpretations of these earliest European architectural constructions. The work of the book is performed by juxtaposing richly detailed discussions of archaeological sites (Etton and The Wilsford Shaft in the UK, and Magura in Romania), with the work of three artists-who-cut (Ron Athey, Gordon Matta-Clark, Lucio Fontana), with deep and detailed examinations of the philosophy of holes, the perceptual psychology of shapes, and the linguistic anthropology of cutting and breaking words, as well as with cultural diversity in framing spatial reference and through an examination of pre-modern ungrounded ways of living. Breaking the Surface is as much a creative act on its own-in its mixture of work from disparate periods and regions, its use of radical text interruption, and its juxtaposition of text and imagery-as it is an interpretive statement about prehistoric architecture. Unflinching and exhilarating, it is a major development in the growing subdiscipline of art/archaeology.
