Paperback. Condition: Good. How do you truly understand what it means to be a person, any person, a person struggling with mental illness? The author explores that difficult question in this autobiography of sorts, not only from his perspective as a psychiatrist, but as someone whose mother was afflicted with a long-standing severe mental illness, and as someone with dedicated interest in both the sciences and the humanities. Early in his career, Dr. Strauss contributed the multiaxial structure to a diagnostic manual for psychiatry in an effort to include the many aspects of human functioning in psychiatric thinking. He showed with his colleague William Carpenter that people with schizophrenia can get better, and he has written extensively on how people with severe psychiatric disorders experience their lives and act to contribute to the processes of their own improvement. Using the lens of his medical training and years spent treating patients, as well as stories and perspectives gained from the various experiences in his life more generally - such as time spent hitchhiking for three months and 9000 miles around the US, extended periods in Paris working and writing with French friends including noted psychiatrists and a clown who works in an adult palliative care center - this autobiography serves to combine these into an approach towards understanding people and mental health as a human science, an approach that uses the rigors of medicine along with an appreciation of the depth and complexity of everyday life.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. In 1960, when I first entered college, war was the furthest thing from my mind. John Kennedy had been elected President of the USA and I was focused on simply enjoying college and some day, perhaps, going to law school. Little did I realize on August 2, 1964, that the U.S. destroyer Maddox in exchanging shots with North Vietnamese torpedo boats in the Gulf of Tonkin would result in my being sent to Vietnam to support our war effort. How did I get there? What happened to me in that country? What followed thereafter? Read 50 short tales that tell the story.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Everybody likes Jesus. Don't they?We overlook that Jesus was Judgmental--preaching hellfire far more than the apostle Paul Uncompromising--telling people to hate their families Chauvinistic--excluding women from leadership Racist--insulting people from other ethnic groups Anti-environmental--cursing a fig tree and affirming animal sacrifice Angry--overturning tables and chasing moneychangers in the temple He demanded moral perfection,told people to cut off body parts, made prophecies that haven't come true, and defied religious and political authorities. While we tend to ignore this troubling behavior, the people around Jesus didn't. Some believed him so dangerous that they founda way to have him killed.The Jesus everybody likes, says Mark Strauss, is not the Jesus found in the Gospels.

Paperback. Condition: Good. This stunning novel combines fiction with astonishing fact to tell the story of history's most famous conjoined twins. Born in Siam in 1811--on a squalid houseboat on the Mekong River--Chang and Eng Bunker were international celebrities before the age of twenty. Touring the world's stages as a circus act, they settled in the American South just prior to the Civil War. They eventually married two sisters from North Carolina, fathering twenty-one children between them, and lived for more than six decades never more than seven inches apart, attached at the chest by a small band of skin and cartilage. Woven from the fabric of fact, myth, and imagination, Strauss's narrative gives poignant, articulate voice to these legendary brothers, and humanizes the freakish legend that grew up around them. Sweeping from the Far East and the court of the King of Siam to the shared intimacy of their lives in America, Chang and Eng rescues one of the nineteenth century's most fabled human oddities from the sideshow of history, drawing from their extraordinary lives a novel of exceptional power and beauty.…
