A Manual Of Acupuncture
by Peter Deadman Mazin Al-KhafajiThis book is deeply rooted in the classical tradition of Chinese acupuncture. The practice of acupuncture has grown spectacularly in the Western world over the last three or four decades. During the early period of this expansion there was scanty source material available. China was firmly closed to access by students of Chinese medicine, few textbooks were available in translation, and even fewer translators were skilled in the difficult task of rendering the terminology of Chinese medicine into other languages.
A Manual on Adolescents and Adults with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome
by Ann Pytkowicz Streissguth Sandra P. RandelsFetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is a major concern in communities where women drink heavily. American Indian communities appear to be particularly at risk (1). While some information is available on younger children with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) and Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE), little was known about adolescents and adults with this disorder until the present project was undertaken. This report is based on information gained from the FAS Follow-Up Study which involved assessments of 61 adolescents and adults who previously had been given a diagnosis of FAS or FAE, and interviews with their families, school teachers, and social service personnel.This manual is directed toward those who are involved in giving care and providing services to adolescents and adults with FAS and FAE. These include both caretakers and physicians, as well as nurses, school teachers, social workers, court workers and tribal councils. While the majority of patients in the follow-up study are American Indian, the concerns regarding FAS and FAE transcend culture, race, gender, and socioeconomic status. It is our hope that the information contained herein will result in a better understanding of adolescents and adults with FAS and FAE and that this understanding of their special problems and needs will lead to more adequate planning by community agencies and better care for affected individuals. We hope that by demonstrating the lifelong impact of FAS, this manual will also encourage even more vigorous prevention and education efforts and a decrease in this preventable form of mental retardation and developmental disability.We begin with some background information, then describe the research project, and finally present general and specific recommendations for helping adolescents and adults with FAS and their families.

A Mark of the Mental: In Defense of Informational Teleosemantics (Life and Mind: Philosophical Issues in Biology and Psychology)
by Karen NeanderDrawing on insights from causal theories of reference, teleosemantics, and state space semantics, a theory of naturalized mental representation.In A Mark of the Mental, Karen Neander considers the representational power of mental states—described by the cognitive scientist Zenon Pylyshyn as the “second hardest puzzle” of philosophy of mind (the first being consciousness). The puzzle at the heart of the book is sometimes called “the problem of mental content,” “Brentano's problem,” or “the problem of intentionality.” Its motivating mystery is how neurobiological states can have semantic properties such as meaning or reference. Neander proposes a naturalistic account for sensory-perceptual (nonconceptual) representations. Neander draws on insights from state-space semantics (which appeals to relations of second-order similarity between representing and represented domains), causal theories of reference (which claim the reference relation is a causal one), and teleosemantic theories (which claim that semantic norms, at their simplest, depend on functional norms). She proposes and defends an intuitive, theoretically well-motivated but highly controversial thesis: sensory-perceptual systems have the function to produce inner state changes that are the analogs of as well as caused by their referents. Neander shows that the three main elements—functions, causal-information relations, and relations of second-order similarity—complement rather than conflict with each other. After developing an argument for teleosemantics by examining the nature of explanation in the mind and brain sciences, she develops a theory of mental content and defends it against six main content-determinacy challenges to a naturalized semantics.

A Matter of Appearance: A Memoir
by Emily WellsA dazzling memoir of chronic illness that explores the fraught intersection between pain, language, and gender, by a debut author.Emily Wells spent her childhood dancing through intense pain she assumed was normal for a ballerina pushing her body to its limits. For years, no doctor could tell Wells what was wrong with her, or they told her it was all in her head.In A Matter of Appearance, Wells traces her journey as she tries to understand and define the chronic pain she has lived with all her life. She draws on the critical works of Freud, Sontag, and others to explore the intersection between gender, pain, and language, and she traces a direct line from the &“hysteria patients&” at the Salpêtrière Hospital in nineteenth-century Paris to the contemporary New Age healers in Los Angeles, her stomping ground. At the crux of Wells&’ literary project is the dilemma of how to diagnose an experience that is both private and public, subjective and quantifiable, and how to express all this in words.&“Gorgeously written and brilliantly argued, A Matter of Appearance uses chronic illness as a lever to investigate the life of a body. It&’s complex, inconclusive, and incredibly clear-eyed. Moving fluidly between histories of psychoanalysis, desire, ambition, pathology, Wells reminds us of the liminal state we all live in between sickness and health.&”—Chris Kraus, author of Aliens & Anorexia and Summer of Hate

A Metaphysics of Psychopathology (Philosophical Psychopathology)
by Peter ZacharAn exploration of what it means to think about psychiatric disorders as “real,” “true,” and “objective” and the implications for classification and diagnosis.In psychiatry, few question the legitimacy of asking whether a given psychiatric disorder is real; similarly, in psychology, scholars debate the reality of such theoretical entities as general intelligence, superegos, and personality traits. And yet in both disciplines, little thought is given to what is meant by the rather abstract philosophical concept of “real.” Indeed, certain psychiatric disorders have passed from real to imaginary (as in the case of multiple personality disorder) and from imaginary to real (as in the case of post-traumatic stress disorder). In this book, Peter Zachar considers such terms as “real” and “reality”—invoked in psychiatry but often obscure and remote from their instances—as abstract philosophical concepts. He then examines the implications of his approach for psychiatric classification and psychopathology.Proposing what he calls a scientifically inspired pragmatism, Zachar considers such topics as the essentialist bias, diagnostic literalism, and the concepts of natural kind and social construct. Turning explicitly to psychiatric topics, he proposes a new model for the domain of psychiatric disorders, the imperfect community model, which avoids both relativism and essentialism. He uses this model to understand such recent controversies as the attempt to eliminate narcissistic personality disorder from the DSM-5. Returning to such concepts as real, true, and objective, Zachar argues that not only should we use these metaphysical concepts to think philosophically about other concepts, we should think philosophically about them.
