Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce nouveau Dictionnaire de lithothérapie a pour objectif de rassembler les informations sur les pierres et les cristaux en puisant à toutes les sources gréco-latines, médiévales, de la Renaissance, ainsi que celles de la médecine anthroposophique, de la médecine ayurvédique, la médecine traditionnelle chinoise et enfin aux données scientifiques modernes (techniques homéopathiques et lithothérapie déchélatrice). Les informations étoffées et documentées sur les pierres de Provence constituent un apport neuf et original dans l'histoire de la lithothérapie. Bien évidemment ce sont les minéraux les plus anciennement utilisés qui bénéficient des notices les plus fournies. Divers textes d'accompagnement, évoquent les diverses sources, les problèmes posés par les différentes pratiques relevant de la lithothérapie (port en contact avec la peau, élixirs, formes galéniques relevant de l'homéopathie etc), la question des chakras et des couleurs associées. Une division est réservée aux éléments chimiques (oligothérapie) et l'ouvrage s'achève par un index à vocation thérapeutique très précieux (sans préconiser pour autant une auto-médication qui pourrait s'avérer fatale en cas de maladie grave). Le but de l'ouvrage consiste à démontrer que l'usage des minéraux a sa place dans les thérapies alternatives car on ne peut pas tenir pour nulles et non avenues les traditions concordantes à cet égard. Il s'agit donc d'un ouvrage avant tout "culturel" destiné à toute personne, particulier ou médecin, désireux d'embrasser, autant que faire se peut, la totalité du champ de la lithothérapie.

Book excerpt: De tous temps, le monde minéral a fasciné l'être humain. Sur le plan thérapeutique comme dans le domaine spirituel, les pierres, dans toutes les traditions, demeurent des clés incontournables de notre épanouissement. Parce qu'elles peuvent contribuer au processus de guérison et l'accélérer dans de considérables proportions, mais également dynamiser notre processus d'évolution, elles peuvent nous apporter beaucoup, à condition que nous sachions quand et comment les utiliser. Les médecines alternatives ont su mettre en évidence le caractère thérapeutique de certaines pierres et déceler la part de vérité essentielle dans nombre d'enseignements initiatiques. Mais d'autres usages, plus propices à l'expansion de notre conscience, sont souvent passés sous silence. Sans juger, en se basant exclusivement sur son expérience concrète, Florence Mégemont explore toutes les dimensions du monde minéral. Les chercheurs d'absolu, les magnétiseurs en puissance, les curieux y trouveront leur compte au même titre que les passionnés des gemmes. Chaque pierre précieuse et semi-précieuse est ici soigneusement répertoriée par ordre alphabétique et fait l'objet d'une " fiche signalétique " des plus complètes. Ses gisements principaux ; l'origine de son nom ; dans quelles circonstances y avoir recours ; ses correspondances zodiacales : chaque aspect est mis en lumière et nous apparaît sous un jour nouveau. Vous saurez, de manière précise, quelles affections peuvent être soulagées et guéries par l'usage des minéraux, et quels sont ceux auxquels il vous est nécessaire d'avoir recours. La thérapie par les pierres ne prétend en aucun cas se substituer à un traitement allopathique ; mais elle en est bien souvent un fort utile complément. Elle peut, de plus, agir à titre préventif, dynamisant au maximum notre capital santé. Mais l'auteur ne s'arrête pas là et nous révèle une méthode fiable, qui peut être pratiquée en toute sécurité, pour augmenter notre potentiel spirituel. Car les gemmes possèdent bien d'autres vertus que la régénération du corps : elles ouvrent notre esprit en agissant sur les chakras, ces fameux centres énergétiques au travers desquels peut s'exprimer la Force de Vie universelle. Un livre précieux et rare, en une langue fluide, qui conjugue avec bonheur le pratique, le didactique et satisfera les lecteurs et lectrices les plus exigeants.

Download or read book Madame Bovary New Edition written by Gustave Flaubert and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Madame Bovary is the French writer Gustave Flaubert's debut novel. The story focuses on a doctor's wife, Emma Bovary, who has adulterous affairs and lives beyond her means in order to escape the banalities and emptiness of provincial life. Though the basic plot is rather simple, even archetypal, the novel's true art lies in its details and hidden patterns. Flaubert was a notorious perfectionist and claimed always to be searching for le mot juste ("the precise word"). Long established as one of the greatest novels ever written, the book has often been described as a "perfect" work of fiction. Henry James writes: "Madame Bovary has a perfection that not only stamps it, but that makes it stand almost alone; it holds itself with such a supreme unapproachable assurance as both excites and defies judgment." Giorgio de Chirico said that in his opinion "from the narrative point of view, the most perfect book is Madame Bovary by Flaubert".

Download or read book Jean Baptiste Say and Political Economy written by Jean-Baptiste Say and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Baptiste Say (1767–1832) was one of the first great economists to have laid down the foundations of economic science. Author of the famous Treatise on Political Economy in 1803, which was revised and re-edited on several occasions, he published numerous other works including a voluminous Complete Course in Practical Political Economy in 1828–9. He also taught political economy successively from 1815 until his death in three Parisian establishments: the Athénée, the Conservatory of Arts and Trades, and the Collège de France. The texts in which Say exposes his approach to political economy have not been available in the English language until now except for the fourth edition of the ‘Preliminary Discourse’ which serves as an introduction to the Treatise. This book presents a translation which renders his works accessible to the English speaking world. For the first time, English readers will be able to become directly immersed in Say’s principal texts, where he develops his conception of political economy. Jean-Baptiste Say and Political Economy proposes a translation of a selection of eleven of Say’s texts. The first three are versions of the ‘Preliminary Discourse’ from the Treatise’s editions of 1803, 1814 and 1826 with the variations of the editions of 1817, 1819 and 1841. The following four texts are the opening discourses pronounced at the Conservatory in 1820 and 1828 and the Collège de France in 1831 and 1832. The eighth text is the ‘General Considerations’ which open the Complete Course in Practical Political Economy of 1828, with the variations of the 1840 re-edition. The final three texts are those Say devotes to ‘the progress of political economy’ in what is akin to a history of economic thought. This volume is of great importance to economic historians and people studying Jean-Baptiste Say, as well as those who are interested in economic theory and philosophy and political economy.
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Pakistan written by Shahid Javed Burki and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pakistan is unlike most other countries in the emerging world. It is one of the two nations – the other being the state of Israel – founded on the basis of religion. Although it was created to provide a homeland for the Muslim community of British India, in its original form it was able to accommodate only about half of the people of Islamic faith who lived in the subcontinent. Pakistan’s birth in 1947 resulted in one of the largest movements of people in human history when some 14 million people left their homes, with 8 million Muslims leaving India for what is now Pakistan and 6 million Hindus and Sikhs moving in the opposite direction. This was the first large-scale incidence of ethnic cleansing the world was to witness. --
Download or read book The Nature of Suffering and the Goals of Medicine written by Eric J. Cassell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-03-25 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a revised and expanded edtion of a classic in palliative medicine, originally published in 1991. With three added chapters and a new preface summarizing our progress in the area of pain management, this is a must-hve for those in palliative medicine and hospice care. The obligation of physicians to relieve human suffering stretches back into antiquity. But what exactly, is suffering? One patient with metastic cancer of the stomach, from which he knew he would shortly die, said he was not suffering. Another, someone who had been operated on for a mior problem--in little pain and not seemingly distressed--said that even coming into the hospital had been a source of pain and not suffering. With such varied responses to the problem of suffering, inevitable questions arise. Is it the doctor's responsibility to treat the disease or the patient? And what is the relationship between suffering and the goals of medicine? According to Dr. Eric Cassell, these are crucial questions, but unfortunately, have remained only queries void of adequate solutions. It is time for the sick person, Cassell believes, to be not merely an important concern for physicians but the central focus of medicine. With this in mind, Cassell argues for an understanding of what changes should be made in order to successfully treat the sick while alleviating suffering, and how to actually go about making these changes with the methods and training techniques firmly rooted in the doctor's relationship with the patient. Dr. Cassell offers an incisive critique of the approach of modern medicine. Drawing on a number of evocative patient narratives, he writes that the goal of medicine must be to treat an individual's suffering, and not just the disease. In addition, Cassell's thoughtful and incisive argument will appeal to psychologists and psychiatrists interested in the nature of pain and suffering.

Download or read book Sampling in Combinatorial and Geometric Set Systems written by Nabil H. Mustafa and published by American Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2022-01-14 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the behavior of basic sampling techniques and intrinsic geometric attributes of data is an invaluable skill that is in high demand for both graduate students and researchers in mathematics, machine learning, and theoretical computer science. The last ten years have seen significant progress in this area, with many open problems having been resolved during this time. These include optimal lower bounds for epsilon-nets for many geometric set systems, the use of shallow-cell complexity to unify proofs, simpler and more efficient algorithms, and the use of epsilon-approximations for construction of coresets, to name a few. This book presents a thorough treatment of these probabilistic, combinatorial, and geometric methods, as well as their combinatorial and algorithmic applications. It also revisits classical results, but with new and more elegant proofs. While mathematical maturity will certainly help in appreciating the ideas presented here, only a basic familiarity with discrete mathematics, probability, and combinatorics is required to understand the material.
