Maximiliaan de Hénin-Liétard, graaf van Boussu (1542-1578)
Het leven van de graaf van Boussu (1542-1578) kende een merkwaardig verloop. Na de vlucht van de prins van Oranje werd hij in 1567 door Margaretha van Parma in diens plaats benoemd tot stadhouder van Holland en Utrecht. Na het ontslag van de landvoogdes leverde hij in dienst van Alva een vergeefse strijd tegen de watergeuzen en de Oranjegezinde steden van Holland. In de slag op de Zuiderzee van 11 oktober 1573 delfde hij het onderspit tegen de rebellerende Waterlandse en Westfriese steden. Na een driejarige gevangenschap in Hoorn herkreeg Boussu zijn vrijheid volgens artikel 9 van de Pacificatie van Gent. Onder begeleiding in Middelburg aangekomen beloofde hij Oranje zich in dienst te stelle...

A Modern Epidemic
Obesity and diabetes are not just problems for the individual. They pose risks to the environmental, psychological and economic stability of the entire world.

Handbook of Psychocardiology
This handbook brings together the full weight of contemporary evidence bearing on what is now commonly termed “psycho-cardiology”. It focuses on the role of psycho-social factors in the genesis and clinical management of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The book constitutes a critically reviewed compendium of current knowledge in the area, coupled with guides to evidence-based best practice in the field of psycho-cardiology. The following categories are covered: Social/demographic risk for CVD, Personality and CVD risk, Stress and CVD risk, Psychopathology (particularly affective disorders) and CVD risk, The psychological management of those with clinical CVD, Psychology in the prevention of CVD. The book integrates the evidence into a compelling argument that clinicians, researchers and those in public health will discount the role of psychological factors in regard to CVD at their own peril. And importantly for clinicians charged with the care of patients with CVD, the book poses the argument that failure to recognize the links between psychological factors and CVD may well be at the considerable peril of those patients under their care.
Batavia's Graveyard
The true story of the mad heretic who led history's bloodiest mutiny - 'An adult version of LORD OF THE FLIES that is, moreover, entirely true' Evening Standard When the Dutch East Indiaman Batavia struck an uncharted reef off the new continent of Australia on her maiden voyage in 1629, 332 men, women and children were on board. While some headed off in a lifeboat to seek help, 250 of the survivors ended up on a tiny coral island less than half a mile long. A band of mutineers, whose motives were almost beyond comprehension, then started on a cold-blooded killing spree, leaving fewer than 80 people alive when the rescue boat arrived three months later. BATAVIA'S GRAVEYARD tells this strange ...
