Paperback. Etat : New. This groundbreaking book explains why tens of millions of Americans with persistent headaches, toothaches, jaw pain, and other debilitating facial pain can't find relief-even after seeing many doctors in search of a solution. The problem is that most physicians and dentists look for injury or disease to explain the pain but ignore the connection between emotions and muscles-which compose most of the face. While the intimate connection between mind and body has long been studied and applied to treat back, heart, skin, and gastrointestinal system pain, this is the first book to clearly explain how the mind can initiate changes in the body that result in persistent pain in the mouth, ears, jaw, forehead, and other facial areas. Detailed case studies clearly describe the relief from pain that patients finally feel, either through an understanding of the "brain-pain" connection alone or in combination with traditional pain-relieving medications and technologies. This book will not only benefit people who suffer from persistent facial pain, but also physicians and dentists insufficiently trained to recognize and diagnose facial pain problems or unable to explain to patients why stressful life challenges and emotions have fueled their suffering.

Paperback. Etat : New. Each year tens of thousands of professors confront over a million students required to take statistics courses in almost every discipline, from anthropology to zoology. Because they did not choose to take "stat" courses, most students lack the motivation to learn and use statistics and, therefore, experience statistics as a "grunt" subject to pass at all costs. Professors try to overcome this problem by giving interesting lectures and assigning good textbooks and websites, but these literary and electronic resources are not meant to inspire students to want to learn and use statistics. This important gap is filled by Dancing on the Tails of the Bell Curve-a unique anthology designed to supplement the technical resources professors assign in their classrooms-which has one goal: to inspire or motivate students to want to learn and use statistics. Through carefully selected readings, this book provides role models for students to identify with who have experienced joy from their use of statistics and concrete examples of how statistics shape almost every decision in society that involves our laws, medications, food supply, interest rates, educational programs, sporting events, mass media, and entitlement programs, to name only a few.In addition to professors, this reader is ideal for parents of children underachieving in their statistics courses and students who want to gain motivation to learn and use statistics.

Paperback. Etat : New. Lars Noren, generally considered Sweden's greatest playwright since August Strindberg, has written about 75 plays. While they are regularly performed in Nordic and European countries and have been translated into several languages, English-language readers were deprived of his major works until 2013, when Chaucer Press Books published Two Plays: And Give Us the Shadows and Autumn and Winter, followed by Three Plays: Demons, Act, and Terminal 3 (2014). This volume presents two more of Noren's major plays in English, including: * Blood (1994), about a wife and husband tormented over their missing son and the husband's male lover, who are eventually brought together in a heartrending denouement as the unbearable truth of their lives is revealed; and * War (2005), a raw depiction of a family reduced to mere survival, set in an unnamed war-torn country. Their world explodes when the mother and her daughters must confront the unexpected return of her husband-who was presumed to be killed in action-and is now blind and virtually devoid of any humanity.Praise for Lars Noren "Lars Noren, regarded by many as the greatest Swedish playwright since Strindberg, has dealt with the love-hate relationships of modern dysfunctional families in emotionally powerful and sombre plays spiced with absurd humour." -Encyclopedia Britannica Online "He has made the present time our home and exposed the anxiety beneath the surface of the welfare state." -Per Wastberg, former chairman of International PEN and editor-in-chief of Sweden's largest daily newspaper.

Paperback. Etat : New. Lars Noren, generally considered Sweden's greatest playwright since August Strindberg, had his first play produced in 1973 at the Royal Dramatic Theater in Stockholm, when he was about 30. His breakthrough came in 1982 with Night Is Mother to the Day. Noren has since written about 75 plays that combine humor with powerful emotional impact and feature his dynamic search for new forms of expression. His work has been translated into several languages and regularly performed in Nordic and European countries. Two Plays: And Give Us the Shadows and Autumn and Winter is the first book to present Noren's plays in English. And Give Us the Shadows is a fictional work based on Eugene O'Neill's life, set in Marblehead, MA, on O'Neill's 61st birthday, when he and his wife, Carlotta, are expecting a visit from his two sons. Autumn and Winter centers on parents and their two grownup daughters who reveal family secrets during one of their regular monthly dinners. .

Paperback. Etat : New. The writings of Harriet Martineau and W.E.B. Du Bois-generally known as the first woman and black founders of sociology-bookend this rich collection of pioneering works that created "the science of society." The sixteen writings in this anthology originally appeared in articles and books published from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. They are, therefore, primary source documents that allow modern readers to see how the authors introduced their paradigm-changing concepts that shattered earlier perceptions of society-concepts such as "culture lag," "collective bargaining," "human ecology," "iron law of oligarchy," and "class conflict," which still largely influence the way twenty-first century social scientists think about and study human relationships, institutions, societies, and cultures. Along with the writings of Martineau and Du Bois, this volume features original works by other major founders of sociology, including Beatrice Webb, Vilfredo Pareto, Jane Addams, Robert Michels, William F. Ogburn, Robert E. Park, Friedrich Engels, Henry Sumner Maine, Walter Bagehot, Ludwig Gumplowicz, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Albion Small, Gustav Ratzenhofer, Ernest Burgess, and Franz Oppenheimer. The groundbreaking writings in this anthology, which is a companion volume to Seminal Sociological Writings: From Auguste Comte to Max Weber (2010), can serve as either a primary or ancillary text in courses on the history of sociology and sociological theory. It will also enlighten all individuals interested in the birth and development of the social sciences.
