De una manera fluida, Sonia Giménes Bawden, apoyada en su experiencia clínica y testimonios de pacientes, dimensiona la alimentación más allá de su valor nutricional, resignificándola como modo de estar y contactar con el mundo e influida por el entrelazado de vínculos afectivos y sociales de la persona.

Diferenciando conducta alimentaria y digestión como dos vertientes de una misma realidad totalizadora, la obra aborda la relación con el ambiente y sus aspectos culturales, así como el papel de la familia en la construcción y efectos de las patol...

As the author makes explicit, this is not a book about the writing of Milton's great biblical epic; rather, it is a book about the formation of the mind that eventually ...

Though it is highly preventable, tooth decay is a common chronic disease both in the United States and worldwide.
