Hacking of the American Mind - Robert H. Lustig

"Explores how industry has manipulated our most deep-seated survival instincts."—David Perlmutter, MD, Author, #1 New York Times bestseller, Grain Brain and Brain MakerThe New York Times–bestselling author of Fat Chance reveals the corporate scheme to sell pleasure, driving the international epidemic of addiction, depression, and chronic disease. While researching the toxic and addictive properties of sugar for his New York Times bestseller Fat Chance, Robert Lustig made an alarming discovery—our pursuit of happiness is being subverted by a culture of addiction and depression from which we may never recover. Dopamine is the “reward” neurotransmitter that tells our brains we want more; yet every substance or behavior that releases dopamine in the extreme leads to addiction. Serotonin is the “contentment” neurotransmitter that tells our brains we don’t need any more; yet its deficiency leads to depression. Ideally, both are in optimal supply. Yet dopamine evolved to overwhelm serotonin—because our ancestors were more likely to survive if they were constantly motivated—with the result that constant desire can chemically destroy our ability to feel happiness, while sending us down the slippery slope to addiction. In the last forty years, government legislation and subsidies have promoted ever-available temptation (sugar, drugs, social media, porn) combined ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Zlý začátek - Lemony Snicket - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Zajisté jste někdy prožili nějakou událost, která vás přiměla k pláči. Pokud ne, v tom případě nevíte, že po pořádném, dlouhém pláči se obvykle cítíte lépe, a to dokonce i tehdy, když se vaše situace ani trochu nezmění. Že jste o sirotcích Baudelairových ještě nikdy neslyšeli? Pak než si poslechnete byť jen jedinou větu, měli byste vědět toto: Violet, Klaus a Sunny jsou dobrosrdeční, ale jejich život je plný smůly a utrpení. Všechny příběhy těchto tří dětí jsou nešťastné a ubohé a nejspíš vás naplní hlubokým zoufalstvím. Pokud se vám, milí čtenáři, líbí příběhy se šťastným koncem, pak si raději poslechněte nějakou jinou audioknihu. V téhle nejenže nenajdete šťastný konec, ale ani šťastný začátek a jen velmi málo šťastných událostí mezi tím. Je to proto, že v životě tří sourozenců Baudelairových se přihodilo jen málo šťastných věcí. Violet, Klaus a Sunny byli chytré děti, milé a bystré, ale byli nesmírně nešťastné. Téměř všechno, co se jim přihodilo, přinášelo smůlu, trápení, zoufalství a beznaděj. Dalo by se říci, že útrapy přitahují jako magnet: zničující požár, škaredé oblečení, studená ovesná kaše k snídani, chladnokrevný zlosyn a úklady, které je mají připravit o majetek. Mrzí mě a omlouvám se, že vám to ... Unknown localization key: "more"

U strýčka se mají všichni tři dobře, ale bohužel jen do té doby, než se objeví nový pomocník. Sourozencům Baudelairovým je okamžitě jasné, kdo se za jménem Stephano skrývá.

The Classic Horror Stories - Howard P. Lovecraft

''Loathsomeness waits and dreams in the deep, and decay spreads over the tottering cities of men. A time will come - but I must not and cannot think!'' H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) was a reclusive scribbler of horror stories for the American pulp magazines that specialized in Gothic and science fiction in the interwar years. He often published in Weird Tales and has since become the key figure in the slippery genre of ''weird fiction''. Lovecraft developed an extraordinary vision of feeble men driven to the edge of sanity by glimpses of malign beings that have survived from human prehistory or by malevolent extra-terrestrial visitations. The ornate language of his stories builds towards grotesque moments of revelation, quite unlike any other writer.This new selection brings together nine of his classic tales, focusing on the ''Cthulhu Mythos'', a cycle of stories that develops the mythology of the Old Ones, the monstrous creatures who predate human life on earth. It includes the Introduction from Lovecraft''s critical essay, ''Supernatural Horror in Literature'', in which he gave his own important definition of ''weird fiction''. In a fascinating contextual introduction, Roger Luckhurst gives Lovecraft the attention he deserves as a writer who used pulp fiction ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The American West - Stephen Aron

Part geographical location, part time period, and part state of mind, the American West is a concept often invoked but rarely defined. Though popular culture has carved out a short and specific time and place for the region, author and longtime Californian Stephen Aron tracks "the West" from the building of the Cahokia Mounds around 900 AD to the post-World War II migration to California. His Very Short Introduction stretches the chronology, enlarges the geography, and varies the casting, providing a history of the American West that is longer, larger, and more complicated than popular culture has previously suggested. It is a history of how portions of North America became Wests, how parts of these became American, and how ultimately American Wests became the American West.Aron begins by describing the expansion of Indian North America in the centuries before and during its early encounters with Europeans. He then explores the origins of American westward expansion from the Seven Years'' War to the 1830s, focusing on the western frontier at the time: the territory between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River. He traces the narrative - temporally and geographically - through the discovery of gold in California in the mid-nineteenth ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Object Relation - Lacan Jacques

"The unfulfilled and unsatisfied mother around whom the child ascends the upward slope of his narcissism is someone real. She is right there, and like all other unfulfilled creatures, she is in search of what she can devour, quaerens quem devoret. What the child once found as a means of quashing the symbolic unfulfilment is what he may possibly find across from him again as a wide-open maw [...] To be devoured is a grave danger that our fantasies reveal to us. We find it at the origin, and we find it again at this turn in the path where it yields us the essential form in which phobia presents. We find it again when we look at the fears of Little Hans [...] With the support of what I have shown you today, you will better see the relationships between phobia and perversion [...] I shall go so far as to say that you will interpret the case better than did Freud himself [...]"Extract from Chapter XI "[...] it's no accident that what has been perceived but dimly, yet perceived nevertheless, is that castration bears just as much relation to the mother as to the father.
