My Autistic Daughter
“My Autistic Daughter” was written to fill an important gap in books about autism: the lack of a human and practical approach to the daily challenges faced by families. Although many technical books offer scientific information and data about the disorder, this book goes beyond the cold manuals. It delves into the emotional and real aspects that are part of the lives of those who live with autism, offering an intimate and direct view of what it really means to live this reality on a daily basis. The author uses her personal experience to help other families who are looking for answers about the first steps within the autistic universe. The book explores how to face daily situations, how ...

The Overlook Film Encyclopedia
Since the initial publication of the first three groundbreaking volumes -- Horror, Science Fiction, and The Western -- The Overlook Film Encyclopedia series has been deemed the most authoritative, stylish, and compulsively readable film reference series ever. In The Gangster Film, series editor Phil Hardy has created yet again a landmark in film reference. Included in this lavish volume are critical entries on more than 1,500 gangster films, complete with plot synapses and credits, and 650 black and white photographs to capture the look of this exciting genre. Arranged chronologically, The Gangster Film offers deliciously opinionated and detailed descriptions, statistical information, credits and trivia from early classics such as Public Enemy, Key Largo, Dragnet, and On the Waterfront to contemporary blockbusters such as The Grifters, Chinatown, The Godfather, and Pulp Fiction. Essential, authoritative, and entertaining, The Gangster Film is the guide for serious students of film, film buffs, and home viewers.

O Brasil Phantastiko no Cinema
A coletânea de ensaios O Brasil Phantastiko no Cinema possui um foco na produção contemporânea dos gêneros fantasia, horror e ficção cientifica, com 9 autores que abordam a filmografia recente analisando obras como Bacurau, Nó do Diabo, Medida Provisória, e estabelecendo seus vínculos com a cultura brasileira e com a história do nosso cinema, em que a classificação de gêneros cinematográficos similares é sempre relegada a segundo plano, de forma discriminatória como parte do folclore ou apenas como obra de crítica social. O cinema de gênero brasileiro tem configurações próprias, e uma história que é relativamente recente, e que se faz presente em Reverberações do fa...
