Love Shouldn't Hurt

Experiencing domestic violence is a reality some people live in on a day to day basis. Understanding the root of why this issue exists can be traced back to understanding the important components necessary for healthy relationships. Creating a healthy relationship involves, having self-love first and foremost, practicing self-development habits on a consistent basis, engaging in effective communication, setting boundaries, and respecting the boundaries set by those you desire to build a relationship with. Respect in general is a huge component of building a healthy relationship. When you care about someone you show them respect, in fact respect is even higher than love on the list of importa...

The Extraordinary Biology of the Naked Mole-Rat

This volume focuses on the huge advances in the last 25 years on the use of this animal model for biomedical research (cancer, heart disease and neurodegeneration), fundamental neuroscience and basic subterranean biology. In 2013, Science magazine named the naked mole-rat as the Vertebrate of the Year. This was partly due to research carried out documenting its extreme longevity, negligible senescence, and prolonged maintenance of cancer free, good health well into old age as well as seminal work on mechanisms involved in these processes, pain and hypoxia resistance. In addition to this research focus on longevity and chronic diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular disease, the naked mole-rat has also made a substantial contribution to the fields of ecophysiology, neuroscience and behavior. With international contributions, this book provides a valuable text for zoological students, behavioral scientists and biomedical researchers.

Gender and Sexuality Development

This book showcases a wealth of knowledge and insight on gender and sexuality development. With contributions from leading researchers, it covers a comprehensive set of topics at the forefront of the field and strikes a balance between traditional and emerging areas of study. Given that gender and sexuality are shaped by myriad influences, this book is modelled on an interdisciplinary perspective and delves into biological, comparative, psychological, cognitive, social, cultural, and clinical approaches. In so doing, this collection conveys the rich tapestry of gender and sexuality science and will hold value for many. For those already in the field, this book provides an excellent resource for brushing up on the latest and for inspiring the next phases of scientific investigation. Those who are newer to the field, including undergraduate and graduate students, stand to gain tremendously from not only the thoughtful and informative content, but also from the interdisciplinary approach modelled throughout the book. Beyond academia, this book is a valuable resource for clinicians and policy makers who deal with child and adolescent issues.

Perhaps the greatest gift of this monumental book, full of facts and full of feelings, is that it constantly makes one think, and think again.âe(tm) Philip Gourevitch In this seminal new study of family, Andrew Solomon tells the stories of parents who learn to deal with their exceptional children and find profound meaning in doing so. He introduces us to families coping with deafness, dwarfism, Down syndrome, autism, schizophrenia, disability, with children who are p...

Langt fra stammen

Over en periode på ti år dybdeintervjuet Andrew Solomon over 300 familier som alle på helt konkret vis har måttet konfrontere forskjellighet: familier med barn som har Downs, er døve eller er autister, familier med vidunderbarn, barn som er unnfanget i voldtekt eller barn som har blitt kriminelle.

Adult Neurogenesis: Beyond Rats and Mice

Researchers working on adult neurogenesis have focused largely on inbred laboratory rodents. While this provides a strong advantage of restricting genetic variation in the group, it also narrows our perspective on adult neurogenesis as a biological phenomenon. Many unsolved issues and open questions cannot be resolved without the contribution of comparative studies spanning through widely different species: how did adult neurogenesis evolve, what is the link between adult neurogenesis and brain complexity, how do adult neurogenesis and animal behavior influence each other, how does adult neurogenesis contribute to brain plasticity, cognition and, possibly, repair, and how do experimental conditions affect adult neurogenesis. The main message from the comparative approach to adult neurogenesis is that the relative exclusive focus on laboratory rodents can result in a bias on how we think about this biological process.

背離親緣(下)

「生命因困苦而豐富,愛則因為必須努力而深刻。」 「珍貴的並不是苦難本身,而是我們對苦難如同珍珠般的包容。」 西方有個諺語:「蘋果落地,離樹不遠」,也就是「有其父必有其子」。但事實卻是,世上有許多孩子都落到了別處,可能是幾座園子外,也可能落到世界的另一端,完全背離父母的預期和想像,而這些家庭也因此走入完全不同的人生。 這些離樹甚遠的果子與父母毫不相像,沒有從垂直的血緣遺傳到相同的外型、能力、智商、性向及價值觀,因此也無法從父母傳下的「垂直身分」獲得身分認同。他們 必須從...
