Has your doctor lied to you? Eat low-fat and high-carb, including plenty of “healthy” whole grains—does that sound familiar? Perhaps this is what you were told at your last doctor’s appointment or visit with a nutritionist, or perhaps it is something you read online when searching for a healthy diet. And perhaps you’ve been misled. Dr. Ken Berry is here to dispel the myths and misinformation that have been perpetuated by the medical and food industries for decades. This updated and expanded edition of Dr. Berry’s bestseller Lies My Doctor Told Me exposes the truth behind all kinds of “lies” told by well-meaning but misinformed medical practitioners.

How can we think about identities in the wake of feminist critiques of identity and identity politics? In Identities and Freedom, Allison Weir rethinks conceptions of individual and collective identities in relation to freedom. Drawing on Taylor and Foucault, Butler, Zerilli, Mahmood, Mohanty, Young, and others, Weir develops a complex and nuanced account of identities that takes seriously the ways in which identity categories are bound up with power relations, with processes of subjection and exclusion, yet argues that identities are also sources of important values, and of freedom, for they are shaped and sustained by relations of interdependence and solidarity. Moving out of the paradox of identity and freedom requires understanding identities as effects of multiple contesting relations of power and relations of interdependence.
Viewed by some as the saviour of his nation, and by others as a racist imperialist, who was Winston Churchill really, and how has he become such a controversial figure? Combining the best of established scholarship with important new perspectives, this Companion places Churchill's life and legacy in a broader context. It highlights different aspects of his life and personality, examining his core beliefs, working practices, key relationships and the political issues and campaigns that he helped shape, and which in turn shaped him. Controversial subjects, such as area bombing, Ireland, India and Empire are addressed in full, to try and explain how Churchill has become such a deeply divisive figure. Through careful analysis, this book presents a full and rounded picture of Winston Churchill, providing much needed nuance and context to the debates about his life and legacy.
Das Delir zählt bei älteren Menschen zu den häufigsten Komplikationen während eines stationären Krankenhausaufenthaltes. Die Auswirkungen des akuten Verwirrtheitszustands, der bis mehrere Wochen andauern kann, betreffen nicht nur die Patient:innen selbst, sondern maßgeblich auch ihre Angehörigen, die sich plötzlich in einer herausfordernden Situation befinden. Dennoch wurden deren Erfahrungen, Belastungen und Bedürfnisse bislang nur in unzureichendem Maße wahrgenommen. Sonja Freyer nimmt sich diesem Missstand an, indem sie folgenden zentralen Fragen nachgeht, um aus deren Antworten Empfehlungen für die Pflegepraxis abzuleiten: • Welche Erfahrungen machen Angehörige von Menschen mit Delir während der stationären Behandlung im Akutkrankenhaus? • Welche belastenden Situationen beschreiben sie? • Was hat ihnen in dieser belastenden Situation geholfen? Was hätten sie sich gewünscht?

Thomas Easterling (d.1815) was possibly a son of John Easterling of North and South Carolina, and a possibly a grandson of Henry Easterling of Calvert County, Maryland. Thomas was married to Rebecca Vicars, and purchased land in 1798 in Russell (now Scott) County, Virginia. They had probably moved there from that part of North Carolina which later became Tennessee (their oldest son said he was born in Tennessee). Henry Easterling (1733-1800) was possibly a son of Henry Easterling Jr. and grandson of Henry Easterling of Calvert County, Maryland. Henry was born in or near New Bern, Craven County, North Carolina, and married Elizabeth Bennett in or near Dobbs or Duplin County, North Carolina in 1753/1754. They later moved to Anson County, North Carolina and then to Marlboro County, South Carolina. Descendants and relatives of Thomas and Henry lived in Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and elsewhere. Includes chapters about the Easterlings in colonial America.
