Una mirada compasiva y valiente a la forma en que nos hablamos en los momentos difíciles.


Seleccionado por The New York Times como uno de los mejores títulos del año. Finalista del National Book Critics Circle. Estremecedor, real y, al mismo tiempo, esperanzador. Un acercamiento lúcido y tremendamente original a los abismos de la mente humana.


Cuando Rachel Aviv tenía tan solo 6 años, sus padres recibieron un demoledor diagnóstico para su hija: era anoréxica. Rachel, quien ni siquiera sabía lo que significaba la palabra, descubrió que probablemente era la persona que había sido etiquetada con ese trastorno a una edad más temprana.


A partir de esa experiencia, esta prestigiosa y combativa periodista cuestiona el beneficio o el perjuicio del diagnóstico en salud mental y se sumerge en cuatro casos reales, cada uno más impactante y revelador, para repasar cómo las etiquetas han determinado las décadas más recientes de la psiquiatría en el mundo occidental.


El ensayo de Rachel Aviv recoge una investigación fascinante y minuciosa sobre los abusos de esta rama de la medicina en cualquiera de sus disciplinas, y también pone énfasis en la importancia del entorno y de los otros en el proceso de curación. Es, además, un canto a la esperanza de superación de los trastornos mentales.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


A compassionate and brave look at how we talk to ourselves during difficult times.


Selected by The New York Times as one of the best titles of the year. Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. Stirring, real, and at the same time, hopeful. A lucid and tremendously original approach to the depths of the human mind.


When Rachel Aviv was just 6 years old, her parents received a devastating diagnosis for their daughter: she was anorexic. Rachel, who didn't even know what the word meant, discovered that she was probably the youngest person to be labeled with this disorder.


From that experience, this prestigious and combative journalist questions the benefit or harm of mental health diagnoses and delves into four real cases, each more impactful and revealing, to review how labels have determined recent decades of psychiatry in the Western world.


Rachel Aviv's essay presents a fascinating and thorough investigation into the abuses of this branch of medicine in any of its disciplines, and also emphasizes the importance of the environment and others in the healing process. It is, furthermore, a hymn to the hope of overcoming mental disorders.

Very comfy
Size: X-Large, Color: White
I'm a size US Mens 14 with huge calves. Finding comfortable crew socks can be somewhat difficult. These are extremely comfortable, very stretchy and soft. Very worth the price.

I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling and walking ( exercising )
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
5.7.2019 Update: I have probably five packs of 3 of these socks. Can't explain it but recent pairs I've been using have lasted longer than previous two packs ( 6 socks )... So I'm going to get some more... They are my #1 go to sock for cycling, hiking, climbing, walking ( serious, training, speed, distance )... 10.30.19: I use these exclusively for when I'm hiking, cycling anqd walking ( exeqrcising )... They are light, comfortable, keep feet dry, cool & comfortable... They don't shift around on feet. They stay put once put on and running, climbing or cycling shoes are put on and laced up or ratched... I do a lot of hill climbing and also use on terrain where there's lots of long periods ( hours ) going up & hours going down... They don't appear to be very durable, get holes in toe or holes in heels, but 3 pack is relatively inexpensive so I continue to buy them. I do not use them for everyday casual wear because they would wear out very quickly compared to other similar sockets...

These socks are just OK. One arrived with a hole (easily sewn up, but kind of bummed about that). I prefer the Under Armour Resistor socks - they have support built into the socks that you actually can feel, and they were same price for 6 pairs!
