Behind the Burqa

Advance Praise for Behind the Burqa "Whenever and wherever adults make war, children die and women are subjected to fear and humiliation. This is true of Afghanistan too. Read this harrowing book. The tragic yet heroic tale of two women is told with great simplicity. They will haunt you." -Elie Wiesel, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate "The stories of Sulima and Hala achingly articulate the twin and enduring legacies of misogyny and violence. A critical historical document, Behind the Burqa ultimately reveals the unbreakable strength of Afghan women." -Eve Ensler, author of The Vagina Monologues Founder and Artistic Director, V-Day "Behind the Burqa provides important information about conditions i...

A proven program to prevent, treat, and reverse cardiovascular disease and risk factors naturally, using diet, exercise, nutritional supplementation, and relaxation techniques-and without the use of pharmaceutical drugs. Americans are obsessed with heart health, yet most of us don't do the most basic things to take care of ours. In The All-Natural Cardio Cure, Dr. Allan Magaziner outlines a program for heart health that works to prevent, treat, and reverse the causes of cardiovascular problems, rather than merely treating them once they arise. Developed in clinical practice, Magaziner's comprehensive approach can help to: * lower blood cholesterol and triglycerides; * inhibit the inflammatory processes that lead to hardening of the arteries; * reduce blood pressure; * decrease the risk of heart attack and stroke; and * improve overall health. The All-Natural Cardio Curehas actually helped many people to eliminate or reduce their need for medication. The keys to this strategy are specific elements of diet, exercise, nutritional supplementation, and relaxation techniques, integrated in a clearly delineated way that is easy to follow and, most important, proven effective.

While featuring enough death and deception to keep the detective protagonists on their toes, each story presents the uncertainties that are a part of contemporary Jewish identity—inviting us all to confront our own mysteries of being. Throughout the stories' tangled puzzles and suspenseful adventures, the characters solve not only the "whodunit"-type mysteries, but also struggle to solve the mystery of their spiritual lives.

The Madness of Fear

What are the real disease entities in psychiatry? This is a question that has bedeviled the study of the mind for more than a century yet it is low on the research agenda of psychiatry. Basic science issues such as neuroimaging, neurochemistry, and genetics carry the day instead. There is nothing wrong with basic science research, but before studying the role of brain circuits or cerebral chemistry, shouldn't we be able to specify how the various diseases present clinically? Catatonia is a human behavioral syndrome that for almost a century was buried in the poorly designated psychiatric concept of schizophrenia. Its symptoms are well-know, and some of them are serious. Catatonic patients ma...
