Als die Beziehung zu ihrem Freund zerbricht, will Stephanie nur noch eins: möglichst weit weg von Hamburg, von den Erinnerungen und ihrem alten Leben. Da kommt ihr die Stellenanzeige aus dem südlichsten Zipfel Deutschlands ganz recht. Kurze Zeit später findet sich die junge Krankenschwester in einem völlig neuen Leben wieder. Beschauliche Kleinstadt im Voralpenland statt Millionenstadt an der Elbe, ein gewöhnungsbedürftiger Dialekt der Menschen dort und der Mangel an Freunden und Bekannten machen ihr den Einstieg nicht leicht. Erst die sich langsam entwickelnde Freundschaft zu einer gleichaltrigen Kollegin beginnt dies zu ändern. Doch als Britta sie in einen Hauskreis einlädt, ist Stephanie irritiert. Was – um alles in der Welt – ist nun das wieder? Auch ihr Vorsatz, von Männern so schnell nichts mehr wissen zu wollen, wird auf die Probe gestellt. Wird einer ihrer neuen Bekannten es schaffen, ihr Herz zu erobern? Der Leser begleitet Stephanie etwa ein Jahr lang auf der spannenden Reise in ihr ganz persönliches neues Leben.
Die 30 Impulse in diesem kleinen Buch sollen den Leser anregen, sich Gedanken zu machen sowohl über den persönlichen geistlichen Zustand als auch über die Verfassung, in der die Gemeinde sich befindet.

Erschreckend, weil offenbar wird, wie viele "Dinge", die wir entwickelt und etabliert haben, keinen Bestand haben und keineswegs so stabil und sicher sind, wie wir uns das eingebildet haben. Andererseits ist die Erschütterung die Chance darauf, eben das zu erkennen und unser Leben, unseren Glauben, unsere Liebe und Hoffnung auf den Felsen zu gründen, der unerschütterlich ist und ewig bleibt.
This new volume in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology presents a comprehensive review of the fundamental science and clinical treatment of psychiatric disorders. Advances in neuroscience have allowed for dramatic advances in the understanding of psychiatric disorders and treatment. Brain disorders, such as depression and schizophrenia, are the leading cause of disability worldwide. It is estimated that over 25% of the adult population in North America are diagnosed yearly with at least one mental disorder and similar results hold for Europe. Now that neurology and psychiatry agree that all mental disorders are in fact, "brain diseases," this volume provides a foundational introduction to the...
An informative and comprehensive review from the leading researchers in the field, this book provides a complete one-stop guide to neuroimaging techniques and their application to a wide range of neuropsychiatric disorders. For each disorder or group of disorders, separate chapters review the most up-to-date findings from structural imaging, functional imaging and/or molecular imaging. Each section ends with an overview from a internationally-renowned luminary in the field, addressing the question of 'What do we know and where are we going?' Richly illustrated throughout, each chapter includes a 'summary box', providing readers with explicit take-home messages. This is an essential resource for clinicians, researchers and trainees who want to learn how neuroimaging tools lead to new discoveries about brain and behaviour associations in neuropsychiatric disorders.
One of the major neuroscience publications of the past few years, Cingulate Neurobiology and Disease presents the definitive review of the cingulate cortex, explaining its critical role in a host of diseases and illnesses.
Recognized as the definitive reference, this handbook brings together leading experts from multiple psychological subdisciplines to examine one of today's most dynamic areas of research. Coverage encompasses the biological and neuroscientific underpinnings of emotions, as well as developmental, social and personality, cognitive, and clinical perspectives. The volume probes how people understand, experience, express, and perceive affective phenomena and explores connections to behavior and health across the lifespan. Concluding chapters present cutting-edge work on a range of specific emotions. Illustrations include 10 color plates. New to This Edition *Chapters on the mechanisms, processes, and influences that contribute to emotions (such as genetics, the brain, neuroendocrine processes, language, the senses of taste and smell). *Chapters on emotion in adolescence and older age, and in neurodegenerative dementias. *Chapters on facial expressions and emotional body language. *Chapters on stress, health, gratitude, love, and empathy. *Many new authors and topics; extensively revised with the latest theoretical and methodological innovations.
