Описание: A new way of thinking about depression. By 2030 depression will be the single biggest cause of disability in the world. And yet the treatment for it has not changed in the past 30 years. In the world of psychiatry, time has apparently stood still... Until now. In this book, Cambridge University Professor Edward Bullmore reveals that depression is not just a disease of the mind or the brain, but of the whole body. It explains the link between depression and the immune system. New science shows that a dysfunctional immune system can be responsible for a whole host of psychological issues.
Описание: The third volume of a collection of weird tales by a Victorian master of the gothic and occult In his time, the aristocratic Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1st Baron Lytton) was one of the most popular and prolific writers in the English language as well as a notable administrator who held the post of secretary of state for the colonies under Derby's government during the Victorian era. Today, few remember his works or indeed how he has left his mark on the language. For example we owe him acknowledgement for the expressions, 'the pen is mightier than the sword, ' 'the great unwashed' and for the infamous opening line of his novel, Paul Clifford, 'It was a dark and stormy night.' This last contribution has inspired humorists for decades and even a writing competition. However, it would be unfair to Bulwer-Lytton to consider him solely by these diversions. Here was a well regarded writer of poetry and stage plays, of historical novels, mysteries, romances, science fiction and of excellently crafted tales of the supernatural and the occult-the subject of this special four volume collection from Leonaur. Several of his works were converted into operas and Bulwer-Lytton was also the editor of popular magazines, The New Monthly and The Monthly Chronicle. It is not uncommon for prolific writers to turn their talents to a variety of genres and in any event Bulwer-Lytton belonged to the golden age of gothic and supernatural writing in which there were several highly regarded authors whose contributions remain cherished to this day. In his retrospective view of the very finest writers of ghost stories, the author M. R. James (widely accepted as a master of the genre himself) made special note of Bulwer-Lytton's, 'The Haunters and the Haunted.' However, the author's particular interest in the occult found expression in his writings on the bizarre and many of his most chilling tales have this at their core. The third volume of this Leonaur four volume collection includes a novel Zanoni, four short stories and two ballads of the strange and unusual. This substantial collection is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket for collectors.

Описание:
In Newman and History, Edward Short shows how important history was to all aspects of the life and work of Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman. There are essays here on Newman and Edward Gibbon; Newman and the Whig historians; and Newman and the law, especially the infamous Achilli trial of 1851, which pitted him against a Protestant Establishment still smarting from the restoration of the Catholic hierarchy ̶ disparagingly referred to by many Victorians as "papal aggression". Readers interested in Newman's history-laden conversion will enjoy "Newman, C. S. Lewis, and the Reality of Conversion"; those interested in Tractarianism will find a piece that looks at what became of the Oxford Movement after Newman abandoned the via media and seceded to Rome. The chapter entitled "Newman and the Liberals" charts his life-long critique of liberalism. Edward Short also examines Newman's letters and his writings as a unified whole, concludes with a far-ranging essay "Newman, History and Hagiography", which shows how Newman was attuned to and appreciative of the faith of ordinary Catholics.

Описание: Lord Dunsany was one of Ireland's finest writers. At the peak of his career he was a true literary celebrity, spending time with authors such as W. B. Yeats and Rudyard Kipling, and publishing over sixty books. Arthur C. Clarke called him "one of the greatest writers of the 20th] century," and H. P. Lovecraft described him as being "unexcelled in the sorcery of crystalline singing prose, and supreme in the creation of a gorgeous and languorous world of incandescently exotic vision." Collected here are some of Dunsany's greatest tales, including 'The Magician', 'The Field Where the Satyrs Dance' and more.
