Sound-Rage: A Primer of the Neurobiology and Psychology of a Little Known Anger Disorder

Sound-Rage: A Primer of the Neurobiology and Psychology of a Little Known Anger Disorder

Judith T. Krauthamer

Judith Krauthamer
2013
nidottu
Sound-Rage, commonly known as "Misophonia," is a little known disorder characterized by an anger response to certain sounds. Gum popping, food chewing, nose sniffing, pen clicking... fingers pointing, legs swinging, hair twirling.... For the vast majority of people, these sounds and sights are meaningless. For a small minority of the population, these sounds and sights are triggers that lead to instant rage and set off a physiological urge to flee. The primer presents groundbreaking research on the neurobiology and psychology of the disorder, and provides compelling evidence that "Sound-Rage" is a neurological, developmental disorder that alters neural processes in the brain. It discusses why cognitive behavior therapy is the most effective treatment for reducing symptoms.

Longing to Be Free

Judith T Guskin

Wonder Spirit Press
2018

This novel is set in tumultuous times 1630-1677 in colonial New England and London. In the beginning there was peaceful co-existence between the English colonists and the Native American Nations. Comfort Bradford, the daughter of the Governor of Plymouth, is friends with her Wampanoag neighbors; she speaks their language and respects their culture. Decades later her friend Metacom leads his people and other tribes in a united effort against the colonies. It was a war that almost destroyed all New England towns and native villages. Why did this war happen? Was it a just war?Inspired by true events, this richly-detailed novel brings to life the leaders - Native Americans, colonists and members of the London Parliament - whose beliefs and actions shaped history for generations. Comfort's dreams, fears, passions and daring actions are woven throughout this historical novel of friendship, love, religious conflicts, politics and war.

Part 1 consists of biographical interviews and personal observations on Maier and his work by Herman Berlinski, David Berlinski, Geoffrey Lloyd, Enrique Krauze and Aaron W. Warner.

Immigrants on the Threshold

Immigrants on the Threshold

Judith T. Shuval

Routledge
2017
sidottu
This first large-scale empirical work on the adjustment problems of immigrants in Israel is now updated with a new introduction by the author and a preface by Alex Weingrod. The extraordinary phenomenon of worldwide immigration to Israel has made this searching study of people in transit possible. "Immigrants on the Threshold" reports on the attitudes and behaviors of almost 2,000 people from twenty countries during their first year in Israel during the early years of mass migration. It is of particular interest as the phenomenon of integration becomes an issue for concern in many other parts of the world. "Immigrants on the Threshold" by Judith Shuval presents a theoretical framework closely intermeshed with rich empirical findings. No other work in this field approaches this study in either depth of theoretical analysis or in design and execution of data collection performed by conducting in-depth interviews and then using statistical analysis to quantify results in exacting and objective detail. It attempts to answer a number of critical questions: What factors in the immigrants' past and present condition their responses to the strain of transit? What is the role of commitment to the goal of the new society into which they must incorporate? What is the role of different social and economic backgrounds in determining patterns of acculturation? What factors affect the aspirations and mobility patterns of immigrants? The answers to these questions - the hypotheses formulated and the conclusions reached in "Immigrants on the Threshold" - contribute substantially to the fields of both sociology and social psychology. These answers, and the methods used to reach them, should be of interest to anyone in these fields and the field of applied social research, as well as those interested in Israel and questions of immigrant integration.

Alternative and Bio-Medicine in Israel

Alternative and Bio-Medicine in Israel

Judith T. Shuval; Emma Averbuch

Academic Studies Press
2012
sidottu
This book explores the macro and micro social contexts in which alternative and biomedicine coexist in Israel. It includes a history of alternative health care in Israel and analysis of current policies and dilemmas regarding different forms of health care. It provides an in-depth analysis of medical professionals who have added alternative health care to their repertoire of professional skills in their practice settings in hospitals and community clinics. The heterogeneity of patient populations in Israel makes it possible to explore attitudes of different cultural groups toward alternative health care: these include Jewish immigrants from different countries as well as Bedouin and other Arab groups. Since alternative medicine is a growing part of the overall health care system in many countries, the book provides insights gained from the Israeli experience regarding its coexistence along with conventional medicine - to a broad spectrum of health professionals, policy makers and laypersons.

Judith T. Walenta had just begun her new career as a nurse practitioner in Manhattan when she is diagnosed with stage one breast cancer. Having avoided conventional medicine for years in her own care, she suddenly finds herself diagnosed with a serious-potentially fatal-disease. At first her unwavering faith in holistic healing seems to abandon her and she resigns herself to accepting traditional treatment. But when her search begins to uncover alternatives, she rejects surgery and chemo and chooses therapies that heal her mind and spirit, as well as her body. In the end, she not only wins her battle against breast cancer, but is also shown that it's possible to live a richer, fuller, more joyous life-even after receiving a life-altering diagnosis. In this memoir set in 1990 and 1991, the author shares both her very personal journey as she seeks to eradicate the cancer threatening to kill her and a historical perspective on the growth and development of what is commonly called "alternative medicine" today. Join the author on her journey of spiritual, emotional, and physical healing after the biopsy that changed her life forever.

Alternative Health Care in Israel

Alternative Health Care in Israel

Judith T Shuval

Hakodesh Press
2016
pokkari
More and more people in Western countries - and in Israel - turn to alternative health care as a complement or a substitute for conventional health care. Some visit alternative practitioners even before they see a family doctor. And for many people these methods work Alternative health care in Israel, like in other Western countries, is a growing phenomenon which changes over time. The book captures its dynamism showing its development from the late 1980s to the present by describing its place in the health care scene against the background of cultural, political and social forces in Israel. The book is based on 15 years of research which included over 100 in-depth interviews with alternative practitioners, conventional practitioners, patients and policy makers from different health care organization in Israel. There are many lively quotations from these interviews which bring the narrative close to real life. The book shows that in Israel there are many mainstream doctors, nurses, midwives, physiotherapists and others who practice integrative medicine which combines alternative and conventional approaches in order to reinvigorate medicine's overall orientation to care and cure.
