Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Angst ist in Deutschland die häufigste seelische Störung, noch vor Alkoholismus und Depression. Scott Stossel führt uns anhand seiner eigenen Leidensgeschichte durch das Universum der Ängste, Phobien und Panikattacken. Ein humorvolles, empathisches und inspirierendes Buch, das dem Leser tiefe Einsichten in die biologischen, kulturellen und gesellschaftlichen Faktoren der Angst vermittelt. Schlotternd vor Angst, steht er vor dem Traualtar und möchte am liebsten im Erdboden versinken eine so schreckliche wie komische Situation, die man seinem ärgsten Feind nicht wünscht! Indem er seinen eigenen Kampf mit der Angst schildert, gelingt Scott Stossel eine so authentische wie sachkundige Geschichte der Anstrengungen, Angst unter medizinischen, kulturellen, philosophischen und empirischen Gesichtspunkten zu verstehen. Das Spektrum reicht von den ersten medizinischen Berichten bis zur neurowissenschaftlichen und genetischen Forschung unserer Tage. Stossel erzählt von berühmten Menschen, die zeitlebens mit der Angst kämpften, und von den erkrankten Angehörigen der eigenen Familie. Seine Biographie einer Krankheit berücksichtigt nicht nur die vielfältigen Spielarten der Angst, sondern ebenso die unzähligen Therapien und Pillen, die zu ihrer Bekämpfung entwickelt wurden. Stossel schildert die lähmende Wirkung von Angst, ihre paralysierende Macht und beschreibt die mutmachende Suche nach Wegen, sie zu beherrschen und mit ihr umzugehen. 416 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Anne Rice is back, with more werewolves, gothic mansions and epic battles between good and evilIt is the beginning of December and it is cold and grey outside. In the stately flickering hearths of the grand mansion of Nideck Point, oak fires are burning. The Morphenkinder are busy getting ready for the ancient pagan feast of midwinter. Everyone is invited, including some of their own who do not wish them well.Reuben Golding, the newest of the Morphenkinder, is struggling with his new existence as a Man Wolf, struggling to learn to control his desires and bloodthirsty urges. His pure, luminous girlfriend Laura seems all set to join him in this new way of life, but Reuben is not at all certain he will love her if she becomes as he is. Beyond the mansion, the forest echoes with howling winds, which carry with them tales of a strange nether world, and of spirits - centuries old - who possess their own fantastical ancient histories and taunt with their dark, magical powers. As preparations for the feast gather pace, destiny continues to hound Reuben, not least in the form of a strange, tormented ghost who appears at the window, unable to speak. But he is not alone: before the festivities are over, choices must be made - choices which will decide the fate of the Morphenkinder for ever.
