Building on wisdom from Hindu, Christian, and Kaballah traditions, this comprehensive guide to energy healing reveals the hidden stresses, beliefs, and attitudes that cause illness. Anatomy of the Spirit is the boldest presentation of energy medicine to date, written by one of its premier practitioners, internationally acclaimed medical intuitive Caroline Myss, who is amongst the "hottest new voices in the alternative health/spirituality scene" (Publishers Weekly).

With this model, Dr. Myss shows how you can develop your own latent powers of ...

Un hombre que ha matado a tiros al agresor de su esposa, la hermosa y provocativa Laura Manion, es detenido y acusado de asesinato en primer grado. La acción se desarrolla en un juzgado en una pequeña ciudad del Medio Oeste norteamericano, y los actores son los fiscales, los abogados defensores, el juez, el acusado, y el jurado, el cual decidirá el destino de un hombre.

Anatomía y fisiología humana

Autor: David Le Vay

Número de Páginas: 559

La palabra anatomía significa cortar el cuerpo para examinar sus partes. La fisiología es el estudio del comportamiento de los sistemas corporales. Si las funciones no se tienen en cuenta, el estudio de la forma es estéril; por esto, la fisiología se erige en complemento de la anatomía. La anatomía es una disciplina descriptiva y la fisiología, experimental. Este texto, excepcionalmente claro y bien ilustrado, proporciona una introducción ideal a la estructura y funcionamiento del cuerpo humano. La composición y las propiedades de los tejidos corporales se describen completamente, además de la anatomía del brazo, de la pierna, del abdomen, del tórax, de la cabeza, del cuello y de la columna vertebral. La segunda parte del libro se centra en la nutrición, las funciones de los diversos sistemas corporales y los procesos biofísicos y bioquímicos relacionados. Los términos técnicos se explican siempre de forma clara y sencilla. Éste es un libro especialmente útil para estudiantes de enfermería, medicina y profesiones geriátricas.

The Anatomy of Buzz

Autor: Emanuel Rosen

Número de Páginas: 322

A groundbreaking guide to creating the word-of-mouth magic that cuts through the skepticism and information overload of today's consumers, and drives sales-and profits-to new heights. What turns a "sleeper" into a box-office bonanza or catapults a just-released book to the top of bestseller lists? How do people decide which car to buy, which fashions fit the image they seek, and even which movie to see? Despite the daily assault of advertising and other traditional marketing strategies, statistics show that consumers are overwhelmingly persuaded by word of mouth-the recommendations of friends and the "buzz" that develops in the marketplace. As Newsweek recently proclaimed, "Buzz greases the great conveyor belt of culture and commerce, moving everything from movies to fashions of the body and mind faster and faster." In The Anatomy of Buzz, former marketing VP Emanuel Rosen pinpoints the products and services that benefit the most from buzz-a universe that embraces everything from high-tech equipment to books, various consumer and entertainment products to legal and other support services-and offers specific strategies for creating and sustaining effective word-of-mouth campaigns....

The Anatomy of Tort Law

Autor: Peter Cane

Número de Páginas: 263

Written to be accessible to all readers with a basic knowledge of tort law, this book adopts an approach which is both easily comprehended, yet also innovative and illuminating. It sets out a new and theoretically stimulating analysis of the law of tort, in which the subject is reconceived as a system of ethical rules and principles of personal responsibility. As such it can be viewed as a series of relationships between protected interests, sanctioned conduct and sanctions. These are the "building blocks" of tort law. Beyond affording a means of comprehending the fragmentary nature of tort law, the book, equally importantly, seeks to develop understanding of its relationship with other areas of the law of obligations. It also permits clearer understanding of the relationship between common law and statutory torts and throws fresh light on the links between tort law and its functions.

Anatomy Live

Autor: Maaike Bleeker

Número de Páginas: 271

Gross anatomy, the study of anatomical structures that can be seen by unassisted vision, has long been a subject of fascination for artists. For most modern viewers, however, the anatomy lesson—the technically precise province of clinical surgeons and medical faculties—hardly seems the proper breeding ground for the hybrid workings of art and theory. We forget that, in its early stages, anatomy pursued the highly theatrical spirit of Renaissance science, as painters such as Rembrandt and Da Vinci and medical instructors like Fabricius of Aquapendente shared audiences devoted to the workings of the human body. Anatomy Live: Performance and the Operating Theatre, a remarkable consideration of new developments on the stage, as well as in contemporary writings of theorists such as Donna Haraway and Brian Massumi, turns our modern notions of the dissecting table on its head—using anatomical theatre as a means of obtaining a fresh perspective on representations of the body, conceptions of subjectivity, and own knowledge about science and the stage. Critically dissecting well-known exhibitions like Body Worlds and The Visible Human Project and featuring contributions from a number...

One of the finest novels ever written, Jane Eyre is also one of the most misunderstood masterpieces of world literature.Whereas most modern teaching of the text misreads or misinterprets Charlotte Brontë’s devout and profoundly ingrained Christian faith and intentions, this critical edition emphasizes the semi-autobiographical dimension of the novel, exposing feminist critiques of the work as being woefully awry and illustrating Brontë’s belief in the hard-earned, hard-learned blessings of sanctity and reverence.
