If a mysterious stranger offered you a life of adventure traveling in a time machine, would you take it? Would you leave behind the family and life you knew for the unknown?The adventure-seeking Vicki knew her answer when Mr. Smith, an odd time traveler, showed her an incredible metal machine, and asked, "Would you like to fly away?" Journeying through time and to other planets, she never regretted saying "yes." However, that choice is tested when Mr. Smith leaves her on an alien moon near the forbidden planet Fensgsele. More questions are raised when a passing ship discovers her, and Vicki meets Captain Carol, a militant, composed woman who harbors hidden motives and an arcane agenda.When secrets and pasts emerge, Vicki questions the one aspect of her travels she never wanted to: why did Mr. Smith choose her? And more importantly, what wickedness lies beneath the surface of Fensgsele? When an adventure turns into danger and worlds are hunted by an ancient evil, sacrifices must be made. Can the universe live with the consequences? Can they?With every decision comes a price, and sometimes, an ultimate sacrifice.

En Narcisismo traumático: Sistemas relacionales de subyugación, Daniel Shaw presenta una forma de entender cómo el narcisismo se engendra en el desarrollo y cómo su impacto se escenifica relacionalmente. Centrándose en las dinámicas narcisistas en las relaciones interpersonales, Shaw describe el sistema relacional de lo que él denomina el 'narcisista traumatizante' como un sistema de subyugación: la cosificación de una persona en una relación como una imponer el dominio de la subjetividad del otro. Daniel Shaw ilustra el funcionamiento de este sistema relacional de subyugación en una variedad de contextos, teoriza el narcisismo traumático como un trauma relacional/de desarrollo transmitido intergeneracionalmente y explora su trabajo como clínico con los hijos ya adultos de narcisistas traumatizantes. Él explora la relación entre líderes de cultos y sus seguidores, y examina cómo vestigios del narcisismo traumático persisten en algunos aspectos de la profesión psicoanalítica. Integrando las teorías del trauma y del apego, la intersubjetividad y la complementariedad, así como la valiosa sensibilidad clínica del psicoanálisis relacional, Shaw demuestra que se puede entender el narcisismo no solo como un rasgo de carácter, sino como el resultado de un trauma de subyugación, en el que se le exige a una persona que se convierta en el objeto para otro que resulta ser la subjetividad hegemónica. Narcisismo traumático presenta oportunidades clínicas y terapéuticas para todos los profesionales de la salud mental que trabajan en distintos ámbitos. Aunque inicialmente estaba pensado para psicoanalistas y psicoterapeutas profesionales, este libro también resultará interesante y esclarecedor para los pacientes y para el público en general.

A porcupine has more than one point to make about how climate reality impacts his new fish friends, a Rio Grande silvery minnow and a razorback sucker. Together they trek across the desert southwest meeting other animals endangered by human-caused changes. Those other animals have information to share, but some of them, like a grumpy Bald eagle, consider turning the fish into breakfast. Dodging hungry predators and figuring out that rising carbon dioxide levels both pose a threat to these animals is just part of their adventure. Yet their journey includes some stories of hope, like when they meet Elaine, a young community scientist who tracks environmental change and cares for land and water with kids from her school. It might be hard to be a fish in a desert, but it's not impossible.

This book focuses on Stanley Cavell's account of what makes Hollywood movies so magical, which proposes the remarkable thesis that most truly great Hollywood films reflect the struggle to become who we are that is foregrounded in the characteristically American theory of Emersonian perfectionism.

You might not expect to find a fish in the desert, but if you look, find them you will. In this book a nationally honoured science teacher tells true stories about real young people who study and care for water, fish, and other creatures in and around desert streams, ponds, lakes, and rivers.
