        Macht Musik!

        Wie Musik uns ein Leben lang trägt und glücklich macht

        by Dr. Pop

        Dr. Pop füllt deutschlandweit Hallen und teilt sein geballtes Wissen in diesem unterhaltsamen Buch Der Musikwissenschaftler und Kabarettist Dr. Pop schreibt hinreißend unterhaltsam über die Wunderwaffe Musik, deren positive Wirkung immer noch viel zu wenig bekannt ist. Das Buch, das auf wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen beruht, bietet für jede Lebensphase den richtigen Soundtrack.  Wir alle haben oft den Blues und fragen uns, wie wir mit den vielen Problemen umgehen sollen. Doch es gibt ein Mittel, das das Leben nachhaltig verbessert, und das ganz ohne Risiken und Nebenwirkungen. Dr. Pop hat in diesem Buch die verblüffendsten Erkenntnisse gesammelt und beschreibt, wie Musik uns klüger, glücklicher und menschlicher macht, und das von der Zeugung bis zum Tod.  Wussten Sie beispielsweise, dass alte Menschen, die zum ersten Mal Klavier lernen, plötzlich besser einparken können, dass es in England Tanzkurse auf Rezept gibt, dass an Schulen, an denen mehr musiziert wird, weniger Mobbing vorkommt? Es ist wirklich so: Musik rettet Leben und macht das Leben leichter.

        Fragen Sie Dr. Sex!

        Ratgeberkommunikation und die mediale Konstruktion des Sexuellen

        by Peter-Paul Bänziger, Stefanie Duttweiler, Philipp Sarasin, Annika Wellmann

        »Soll ich meinem Freund sagen, daß ich bi bin?« – »Warum habe ich mit 17 keine Lust auf Sex?« – Michel Foucault wurde mit der These berühmt, die Moderne verlange von jedem, die eigene Sexualität zum Thema zu machen. Nirgendwo lassen sich dafür bessere Belege finden als auf den Webseiten einschlägiger Zeitschriften. Von den Antworten hängt es ab, ob sich die fragenden Subjekte als »Ladys oder Loser«, als »Prinzen oder Prolls«, als normal oder pathologisch konstituieren. Ein Vorläufer dieser Beratungsformate war die Kolumne »Liebe Marta«, das Schweizer Pendant zum deutschen »Dr.-Sommer-Team«. Die Analyse der Briefe, die die Kolumnistin in den letzten Jahrzehnten erhielt und persönlich beantwortete, steht im Mittelpunkt dieses Bandes. Sie wird ergänzt von Beiträgen zur Genealogie und Theorie der Sexratgeberkommunikation vom Schulmädchen- über den Kinsey-Report bis zu neuen Formen der Online-Beratung.

        The second half of your life - a manual

        Tips and strategies for successful ageing

        by Dr. Petra Kiedaisch

        In the middle of our lives, the cards are reshuffled: marriages are divorced, careers are questioned, friendships are ended, questions of meaning are asked, bodies change - and not just hormonally. At the same time, children leave home and parents become carers. From the age of 45, the majority of our population is at the centre of a second upheaval that affects all facets of our lives and leaves us at a loss in many ways. Not only in our daily lives, but also when it comes to planning for our own old age. This guide is designed to help us find our way. It presents the most important information from all areas relevant to a good life after 45. Leading experts from the fields of medicine, nutrition, philosophy, theology, psychology, care, law and finance give recommendations on what to look out for and what tools are needed to get through these challenging years unscathed. Useful checklists round off the articles. The book shows us the unique opportunity to see these challenges not as a crisis but as a source of strength. Not only can we come through this period of our lives healthy and happy, but we can also shape it so that the next age threshold is no longer frightening. During the second phase of adolescence, we lay the foundations for whether and how we will grow older. Be it in terms of health or living together with family and friends. With contributions from: Prof. Dr. Martin Gessmann (philosophy), Dipl. Psych. Claudia Kühner (psychology), Dr Suso Lederle (medicine), Dr Petra Forster (nutrition), Christian Hald, Anja Heine (law), Prof Dr Philipp Schreiber (finance), Prof Dr Thomas Klie (nursing care insurance), Georg Eberhardt (religion).

        Formularium paediatricum

        Prescriptions for children in paediatric practice

        by Edited by Dr. Andreas S. Ziegler, Nadine Metzger and Prof. Dr. Dagmar Fischer. In collaboration with Prof. Dr. Peter Langguth, Dr. Stefan Seyferth and Dr. Norbert Ohem

        When children are ill, there is often a lack of suitable proprietary medicines. With experience and expertise, pharmacies close this gap. In the process, they are often confronted with complex questions before preparing a medicine: Is the dosage right? Which dosage form will be accepted by the child? How do I process the active ingredient in a child-friendly way? Which excipients are suitable? Formularium paediatricum provides answers to these and numerous other questions: ■ 70 monographs on tested standard formulations describe the preparation process step-by-step and explain paediatric specifics in terms of formulation. ■ an annotated list of common paediatric excipients as well as comprehensive explanations for evaluating children‘s formulations help to assess unknown, non-standardised formulations. Whenever it is a case of extemporaneous medicines for children: the Formularium paediatricum assists in the preparation in the pharmacy to succeed safely and confidently.

        Textbook of Korean Medicine

        Medicinal drugs and formulations

        by Dr. Kenny Kuchta, Prof. Dr. Hans Wilhelm Rauwald, Hans Rausch and Dr. Raimund Royer

        The consistent and evidence-based development of Korean medicine in many clinical application areas has significantly improved its international status in recent years. The basis for this development is one of the most important medical books in Korea, the „Donguibogam“, a clinical lexicon of applications compiled about 400 years ago; at that time the traditional work also enjoyed the highest recognition in China. In 2009 it was included in the „Memory of the World“ register of UNESCO. Even now after 400 years, it still serves as a manual for writing prescriptions for many physicians in Korea, and testifies that the understanding of nature and human disease patterns is still current and clinically applicable even in the modern industrialised world. This work provides ■ understanding for Korean medicine, ■ many selected medicinal formulations and their fields of application, ■ the description and evaluation of important traditional single remedies, ■ the corresponding drug monographs with information on analytical testing

        The Eco-Balance on the Plate

        How What We Eat Can Protect the Climate

        by Dr. Malte Rubach

        How much CO₂ is emitted by one serving of spaghetti bolognese? About 1.5 kilograms! This example shows what the meat industry and food logistics mean for the eco-balance of our food. But is it enough to switch to meat-free and dairy-free alternatives or local specialities? Dr. Malte Rubach takes a closer look and reviews our food regime and its impact on our climate. We live in a society influenced by technology and the rising consumption of resources. Rubach argues for a sensible attitude to food and shows what we can still eat with a clear conscience.

        Cannabis has been used as a drug since antiquity – but only recently has it progressed to become one of the most exciting medical-pharmaceutical topics of our times. In scarcely any other area of pharmacotherapy has the state of knowledge recently developed at comparable speed. Experts from a variety of fields are constantly working to generate new scientific evidence for the therapeutic use of cannabis and/or cannabinoids and to provide patients with quality-assured medicinal cannabis. This book is the first to give representatives of all relevant areas of expertise the chance to speak. Alongside medical-therapeutic aspects, they address such questions as cultivation, quality assurance, patient care practices and patient counselling. The result of this accumulated knowledge and skill is a unique overall picture that, for the first time, combines and consolidates the current legal and scientific framework of medicinal cannabis provision! All facts have been painstakingly researched and checked. The result is a scientifically valid work, which sets the standard. This excellent compendium is indispensable for everyone who comes into contact with cannabis for professional or personal reasons.

        Integrative Oncology

        A consultation manual for physicians and pharmacists

        by Prof. Dr. Harald Matthes, Dr. Friedemann Schad and Prof. Dr. Ralf-Dieter Hofheinz

        Conventional oncological treatment regimens predominantly target the pathogenesis of the disease and are thereby often deficient – a multidimensional view of the whole person and the therapeutic relationship opens up new, complementary treatment options. Scientific data and sound experience of a meaningful holistic concept are now available. 39 experts in their specialist disciplines present the principles of integrative oncology: - Carcinogenesis, what it means to be human, deficiencies of conventional therapy - Integrative therapy systems, scientific confirmation - Specialised drugs, evaluation of specific disease situations - Common malignancies, treatment - Oncological guidelines Conventional and complementary medicine can draw inspiration from each other – we broaden the view.
