Bad Therapy: Why the Kids Aren´t Growing Up - Abigail Shrierová

In virtually every way that can be measured, Gen Z’s mental health is worse than that of previous generations. Youth suicide rates are climbing, antidepressant prescriptions for children are common, and the proliferation of mental health diagnoses has not helped the staggering number of kids who are lonely, lost, sad and fearful of growing up. What’s gone wrong with America’s youth?In Bad Therapy, bestselling investigative journalist Abigail Shrier argues that the problem isn’t the kids—it’s the mental health experts. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with child psychologists, parents, teachers, and young people, Shrier explores the ways the mental health industry has transformed the way we teach, treat, discipline, and even talk to our kids. She reveals that most of the therapeutic approaches have serious side effects and few proven benefits. Among her unsettling findings:Talk therapy can induce rumination, trapping children in cycles of anxiety and depressionSocial Emotional Learning handicaps our most vulnerable children, in both public schools and private“Gentle parenting” can encourage emotional turbulence—even violence—in children as they lash out, desperate for an adult in chargeMental health care can be lifesaving when properly applied to children with severe needs, but for the typical child, the cure can be worse than the disease. Bad Therapy is a must-listen for anyone questioning why our efforts to bolster America’s kids have backfired—and what it will take for parents to lead a turnaround.

Nevratné poškození - Jak naše dcery propadají transgenderové mánii - Abigail Shrierová

Dospívající dívky stále častěji užívají testosteron, ničí si těla a vydávají se na nevratnou cestu ke změně pohlaví. Co stojí za tímto jevem, o kterém se podle některých aktivistů vůbec nesmí mluvit? Odpověď na tuto otázku se snaží nalézt Nevratné poškození - kniha, jejíž vydání provázely v mnoha zemích výhrůžky a protesty. Zatímco ještě donedávna byla takzvaná genderová dysforie (identifikace jedince s jiným než se svým biologickým pohlavím) vzácným fenoménem, který se týkal téměř výhradně chlapců, v posledních deseti letech se jako "transgender" po celém světě identifikuje stále více dospívajících dívek. Americká novinářka Abigail Shrier se prostřednictvím šokujících statistik a příběhů ze skutečných rodin pokouší tento trend vysvětlit jako novodobou epidemii, která nemá nic společného se skutečnou genderovou dysforií, ale pramení zejména z křehkosti a pomíjivosti naší současné kultury. Autorka popisuje, jak "přiznání" transgenderové orientace okamžitě zvyšuje společenský status dívek a jak je těžké vrátit se zpět, jakmile jednou udělají první krok k tranzici. "Knihu doporučujeme rodičům, kteří se potřebují zorientovat v chaosu světa kolem svých dospívajících dětí, aby se pak dokázali vnitřně zpevnit a lépe rozpoznávali, co do jejich rodiny patří a co dovnitř nepustí."

Beyond the Wand: The Magic and Mayhem of Growing Up a Wizard (9781529149425)

Kniha - autor Tom Felton, 304 stran, anglicky, pevná bez přebalu matná They called for a break, and Gambon magicked up a cigarette from out of his beard. He and I were often to be found outside the stage door, having 'a breath of fresh air', as we referred to it. There would be painters and plasterers and chippies and sparks, and among them all would be me and Dumbledore having a crafty cigarette. From Borrower to wizard, Tom Felton's adolescence was anything but ordinary. His early rise to fame saw him catapulted into the limelight aged just twelve when he landed the iconic role of Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films. Speaking with candour and his own trademark humour, Tom shares his experience of growing up on screen and as part of the wizarding world for the very first time. He tells all about his big break, what filming was really like and the lasting friendships he made during ten years as part of the franchise, as well as the highs and lows of fame...

Why the Rich Are Getting Richer - Robert T. Kiyosaki

It's Robert Kiyosaki's position that, 'It is our educational system that causes the gap between the rich and everyone else.' He laid the foundation for many of his messages in the international best-seller Rich Dad Poor Dad - the #1 personal finance book of all time - and in Why the Rich Are Getting Richer, he makes his case... In this book, the reader will learn why the gap between the rich and everyone else grows wider; why savers are losers; why debt and taxes make the rich richer; why traditional education actually causes many highly educated people - such as Robert's poor dad - to live poorly. In this book, the reader will find out why going to school, working hard, saving money, buying a house, getting out of debt, and investing for the long term in the stock market is the worst financial advice for most people. In this book, the reader will find out why real financial education may never be taught in schools. In this book, Robert shares the answers found on his life-long search, after repeatedly asking the question, 'When will we learn about money?' In this book, the reader will find out 'What financial education is... really.'

Good Strategy/Bad Strategy : The difference and why it matters - Rumelt Richard

When Richard Rumelt's Good Strategy/Bad Strategy was published in 2011, it immediately struck a chord, calling out as bad strategy the mish-mash of pop culture, motivational slogans and business buzz speak so often and misleadingly masquerading as the real thing. Since then, his original and pragmatic ideas have won fans around the world and continue to help readers to recognise and avoid the elements of bad strategy and adopt good, action-oriented strategies that honestly acknowledge the challenges being faced and offer straightforward approaches to overcoming them. Strategy should not be equated with ambition, leadership, vision or planning; rather, it is coherent action backed by an argument. For Rumelt, the heart of good strategy is insight into the hidden power in any situation, and into an appropriate response - whether launching a new product, fighting a war or putting a man on the moon. Drawing on examples of the good and the bad from across all sectors and all ages, he shows how this insight can be cultivated with a wide variety of tools that lead to better thinking and better strategy, strategy that cuts through the hype and gets results.

Why? The Purpose of the Universe - Philip Goff

Why are we here? What''s the point of existence? On the ''big questions'' of meaning and purpose, Western thought has been dominated by the dichotomy of traditional religion and secular atheism. In this pioneering work, Philip Goff argues that it is time to move on from both God and atheism. Through an exploration of contemporary cosmology and cutting-edge philosophical research on consciousness, Goff argues for cosmic purpose: the idea that the universe is directed towards certain goals, such as the emergence of life.In contrast to religious thinkers, Goff argues that the traditional God is a bad explanation of cosmic purpose. Instead, he explores a range of alternative possibilities for accounting for cosmic purpose, from the speculation that we live in a computer simulation to the hypothesis that the universe itself is a conscious mind. Goff scrutinizes these options with analytical rigour, laying the foundations for a new paradigm of philosophical enquiry into the middle ground between God and atheism. Ultimately, Goff outlines a way of living in hope that cosmic purpose is still unfolding, involving political engagement and a non-literalist interpretation of traditional religion.

The Book of Why: The New Science of Cause and Effect (0141982411)

Kniha - autor Judea Pearl; Dana Mackenzie, 432 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Correlation is not causation." This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohibition on causal talk. Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cut through a century of confusion and established causality -- the study of cause and effect -- on a firm scientific basis. His work explains how we can know easy things, like whether it was rain or a sprinkler that made a sidewalk wet; and how to answer hard questions, like whether a drug cured an illness. Pearl's work enables us to know not just whether one thing causes another: it lets us explore the world that is and the worlds that could have been. It shows us the essence of human thought and key to artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to understand either needs The Book of Why.

In order to find out we need to know: why has the West been so dominant for the past two hundred years?With flair and authority, historian and achaeologist Ian Morris draws uniquely on 15,000 years of history to offer fresh insights on what the future will bring.

The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for (0141986301)

Kniha - autor Jonathan Haidt; Grag Lukianoff, 352 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Have good intentions, over-parenting and the decline in unsupervised play led to the emergence of modern identity politics and hypersensitivity? In this book, free speech campaigner Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt investigate a new cultural phenomenon of "safetyism", beginning on American college campuses in 2014 and spreading throughout academic institutions in the English-speaking world. Looking at the consequences of paranoid parenting, the increase in anxiety and depression amongst students and the rise of new ideas about justice, Lukianoff and Haidt argue that well-intended but misguided attempts to protect young people are damaging their development and mental health, the functioning of educational systems and even democracy itself.

The Last of What I Am - Abigail Cutter

A haunting and beautifully written novel about a Confederate soldier whose own personal war follows him into the afterlife—until one fateful day when his encounters with a modern-day couple change everything. A ghost in his deserted childhood home in Virginia, Tom Smiley can’t forget the bloody war and its meaningless losses, nor can he shed his revulsion for his role in the Confederate defense of slavery. But when a young couple moves in and makes his home their own in the early twenty-first century, trouble erupts—and Tom is forced not only to face his own terrible secret but also to come to grips with his family’s hidden wartime history. He finds an unexpected ally in the house’s new owner, Phoebe Hunter, whose discoveries will have momentous consequences for them both. Readers who enjoy immersive historical fiction books featuring vivid depictions of the Civil War and its lingering impacts—or historical and literary ghost fiction like Lincoln in the Bardo and The Haunting of Hill House—as well as those interested in thought-provoking explorations of slavery, racism, morality, and humanity, will find much to appreciate in The Last of What I Am. A perfect book club pick for fans of Civil War books like Simon the Fiddler and The Sweetness of Water, or anyone else looking for an impactful, thought-provoking read that offers a unique viewpoint on the Civil War and its legacy.

Stolen Focus : Why You Can´t Pay Attention - Johann Hari

In the United States, teenagers can focus on one task for only sixty-five seconds at a time, and office workers average only three minutes. Like so many of us, Johann Hari was finding that constantly switching from device to device and tab to tab was a diminishing and depressing way to live. He tried all sorts of self-help solutions—even abandoning his phone for three months—but nothing seemed to work. So Hari went on an epic journey across the world to interview the leading experts on human attention—and he discovered that everything we think we know about this crisis is wrong. We think our inability to focus is a personal failure to exert enough willpower over our devices. The truth is even more disturbing: our focus has been stolen by powerful external forces that have left us uniquely vulnerable to corporations determined to raid our attention for profit. Hari found that there are twelve deep causes of this crisis, from the decline of mind-wandering to rising pollution, all of which have robbed some of our attention. In Stolen Focus, he introduces readers to Silicon Valley dissidents who learned to hack human attention, and veterinarians who diagnose dogs with ADHD. He explores a favela in Rio de Janeiro where everyone lost their attention in a particularly surreal way, and an office in New Zealand that discovered a remarkable technique to restore workers’ productivity. Crucially, Hari learned how we can reclaim our focus—as individuals, and as a society—if we are determined to fight for it. Stolen Focus will transform the debate about attention and finally show us how to get it back.

ORGANIC OASIS LAB Probio Kids Therapy doplněk stravy 60 kapslí

Trápí vaše děti opakované nemoci a oslabená imunita? Podpořte jejich imunitu vnitřně díky kvalitním doplňkům stravy vyrobeným rodinnou společností na Slovensku. Výživový doplněk stravy Probio Kids Therapy obsahuje 8 cílených živých probiotických kmenů včetně prebiotik a patentované vlákniny Lynside® s betaglukanem pro podporu imunity, růstu a trávení dětí s jahodovou příchutí. Klíčové ingredience: Probiotické kmeny - 5vrstvé mikroenkapsulované živé probiotické kmeny, které jsou vyrobeny patentovanou technologií VPRO, která chrání probiotika před vnějšími vlivy, jako je kyslík, voda, žaludeční kyseliny a enzymy, a zajišťuje, že se probiotika dostanou do střev v neporušeném stavu. Jejich účinky jsou prokázány klinickými studiemi. Jedna denní dávka obsahuje 8 probiotických kmenů. Probiotické kmeny jsou určeny k posílení imunity, podpoře růstu, ochraně zdraví ústní dutiny a podpoře trávení. Lynside® - první patentovaná prebiotická vláknina z buněčných stěn kvasinek obsahující 1-3/1-6 betaglukan. Mají pozitivní vliv nejen na laktobacily a bifidobakterie, ale i na další zdraví prospěšné kmeny, např. z rodů Prevotella a Ruminococcus (zatímco jiné druhy prebiotické vlákniny stimulují pouze laktobacily a bifidobakterie), fermentace probíhá postupně během průchodu celým trávicím traktem a díky ní dochází k nízké nebo téměř nulové produkci plynů, které jsou příčinou nadýmání a střevních potíží. Betaglukany - mají imunomodulační účinky. Mohou stimulovat a aktivovat imunitní buňky v krvi (T-lymfocyty a makrofágy), takže jsou užitečné nejen při prevenci, ale i při léčbě virových nebo bakteriálních onemocnění. Vědecké studie potvrdily, že beta-glukany jsou vhodné také jako doplňková léčba alergií s projevy v dýchacím systému a také kožních projevů alergie. Betaglukany lze užívat dlouhodobě, zejména v případech snížené imunity a opakovaných infekcí dýchacích cest spojených s užíváním antibiotik. Prebiotická akáciová vláknina - vyživuje tělu prospěšné bakterie v celé délce střeva. Uvolňuje se po dobu 24 až 48 hodin, na rozdíl od jiných druhů vlákniny, které jsou zadržovány pouze v první třetině tenkého střeva a uvolňují se pouze 2 až 6 hodin, čímž se jejich účinek oslabuje. Jak používat? 1 x denně 3,8 g. Nasypte 3,8 g (1 zarovnaná odměrka) do sklenice, zalijte 100 ml neperlivé vody, dobře promíchejte a vypijte.

Why is the Negro Lynched? - Frederick Douglass - e-kniha

eBook: Written just a year before his death, ‘Why is the Negro Lynched?’ is one of Douglass’ most moving and passionate speeches. Still sadly-pertinent today, his skill as a wordsmith is captured in passages that discuss everything from law and respect for human life to religion and the necessity for belonging. An expert orator, Douglass presents his arguments as though they were part of a court case, deftly switching between the roles of prosecution and defence, before passing sentence against the white establishment of the time. An important book for anyone and everyone. Frederick Douglass (1818-1995) was an American abolitionist and author. Born into slavery in Maryland, he was of African, European, and Native American descent. He was separated from his mother at a young age and lived with his grandmother until he was moved to another plantation. Frederick was taught his alphabet by the wife of one of his owners, a knowledge he passed on to other slaves. In 1838, he successfully escaped slavery by jumping on a north-bound train. After less than 24 hours, he was in New York and free. The same year, he married the woman that had inspired his run for freedom and started working actively as a social reformer, orator, statesman, and women’s rights defender. He remains most known today for his 1845 autobiography \"Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave.\"
