WHAT IS ADDICTION by Don Ross (Editor); Peter Collins (Editor); Harold Kincaid (Editor); David Spurrett (Editor)

$112.00 AUD

Category: Health and Emotional Development

Leading addiction researchers survey the latest findings in addiction science, countering the simplistic cultural stereotypes of the addict. The image of the addict in popular culture combines victimhood and moral failure; we sympathize with addicts in films and novels because of their suffering and the ir hard-won knowledge. And yet actual scientific knowledge about addiction tends to undermine this cultural construct. In What Is Addiction?, leading addiction researchers from neuroscience, psychology, genetics, philosophy, economics, and other fields survey the latest findings in addiction science. They discuss such questions as whether addiction is one kind of condition, or several; if addiction is neurophysiological, psychological, or social, or incorporates aspects of all of these; to what extent addicts are responsible for their problems, and how this affects health and regulatory policies; and whether addiction is determined by inheritance or environment or both. The chapter authors discuss the possibility of a unifying basis for different addictions (considering both substance addiction and pathological gambling), offering both neurally and neuroscientifically grounded accounts as well as discussions of the social context of addiction. There can be no definitive answer yet to the question posed by the title of this book; but these essays demonstrate a sweeping advance over the simplistic conception embedded in popular culture.

Life Without Ed: How One Woman Declared Independence from Her Eating Disorder and How You Can Too by Jenni Schaefer

$26.95 AUD

Category: Health and Emotional Development

This book provides a unique new approach to treating eating disorders. Eight million women in the United States suffer from anorexia nervosa and/or bulimia. For these women, the road to recovery is a rocky one. Many succumb to their eating disorders. "Life Without Ed" offers hope to all those who suffer from these often deadly disorders. For years, author Jennifer Schaefer lived with both anorexia and bulimia. She credits her successful recovery to the technique she learned from her psychologist, Thom Rutledge. This groundbreaking book illustrates Rutledge's technique. As in the author's case, readers are encouraged to think of an eating disorder as if it were a distinct being with a personality of its own. Further, they are encouraged to treat the disorder as a relationship rather than as a condition. Schaefer named her eating disorder Ed; her recovery involved "breaking up" with Ed. She shares the points of view of both patient and therapist in this approach to treatment; helps people see the disease as a relationship from which they can distance themselves; and techniques to defeat negative thoughts that plague eating disorder patients. ...Show more

The Fix by Damian Thompson

$19.99 AUD

Category: Health and Emotional Development

Obsessed with your iphone/crackberry? Does your day only start when you grip your second morning skinny cappuccino tightly in hand? Are your social life and your nightly large glasses of wine prompted more by habit than by pleasure? Drugs, food, alcohol, sex and technology are all obsessions that consu me our lives and that are moving beyond our control as they multiply. But how do you know whether your habits are turning a darker shade of healthy, and are you in control of them? Damian Thompson, who has himself struggled with a range of addictions, argues that human desire is in the process of being reshaped. Shunning the widely accepted model of addiction as disease, the acceleration of scientific development is producing more and more substances, objects and experiences that we learn to like too much for our own good and addictive behaviour is becoming a substitute for family and work bonds that are being swept away by globalisation and urbanisation. THE FIX explains how capitalism and organised crime are producing a dizzying range of substances, ranging from slickly marketed iPads and blueberry muffins to illegally manufactured opiate painkillers, that are supplementing the traditional addictions to alcohol and heroin. This battle to control addiction will soon overshadow familiar ideological debates about how to run the economy, and as whole societies set about "fixing" themselves, the architecture of human relations will come under strain as never before. The Fix offers a truly frightening glimpse of the future. ...Show more
