Lexington Books Narrative and Grief: Autoethnographies of Loss
Book SynopsisGrief and loss are fundamental aspects of the human experience. This book explores the desire to make sense out of the nonsensical by exploring specific loss and grief experiences. The autoethnographic essays reflect on the unique and individual experiences of each contributor’s story. Simultaneously, these experiences reveal that although their grief experience is unique, it is also cultural and collective, evoking broader cultural themes related to loss and grief. The chapters in this book represent a wide range of loss experiences ranging from the loss of a parent, child, or partner, loss within larger family systems, ambiguous and anticipatory loss to broader cultural aspects of grief. Scholars of communication, sociology, and family studies will find this book of particular interest. Trade Review“Narrative and Grief: Autoethnographies of Loss, edited by Deleasa Randall-Griffiths and Patricia English-Schneider, is thoughtful, provocative and vulnerable. The editors and authors capture the chaos of grief in various moments. This monograph has much to offer both lay and academic audiences dealing with grief. Through poignant autoethnographies, it addresses many thoughts and emotions that surface during grieving, but one never gives voice while providing insights into how we can heal in the grieving process.” -- Margaret M.

Book SynopsisThe B-complex vitamins are a family of nutrients that play multifaceted and essential roles in health and preventing disease. They are needed to make and repair DNA and increase energy levels-both key steps for slowing the aging process. Some B vitamins are needed to make mood-enhancing neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, and can have powerful antidepressant benefits. The B vitamin folic acid reduces blood levels of homocysteine, a known risk factor for heart disease, stroke, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease. Vitamin B12 is needed for normal mental function, and low levels can mimic senility. This book explores the remarkable benefits of these and the rest of the B-complex family of vitamins.

OR Books The Broken Boy
Book SynopsisIn this expanded edition of a widely praised book, now available for the first time in North America, the renowned journalist Patrick Cockburn looks at his experience of contracting polio as a child in the context of a new pandemic, that of COVID-19. The parallels between what happened 65 years ago and today’s crisis are both striking and salutary. Cockburn was just six when he woke up one day in the summer of 1956 with a headache and a sore throat. His parents, Claud and Patricia, had recently returned to Ireland, to their house in East Cork, careless of the fact that polio had broken out in Cork City. Patrick caught the disease and was taken to the fever hospital. The virus attacks the nerves of the brain and the spinal cord, leading to paralysis of the muscles. Patrick could no longer walk. The Broken Boy is at once a memoir of Patrick Cockburn’s own experience of polio, a portrait of his parents, both prominent radicals, and the story of the Cork epidemic, the last great polio epidemic in the world.Trade Review“Written with affection and insight.” — Maeve Binchy “Charming, interesting and moving by turn.” — Sunday Telegraph “Engrossing . . . an often perceptive genre-defying gem . . . engaging and entertaining.” — Scotland on Sunday “This is wonderful writing . . . Brilliant . . . Cockburn has pulled off something remarkable.” — Observer “The best journalist's autobiography to appear for years . . . This is a story of endurance and a hugely adventurous mind, elegantly told.” — Evening Standard “Sad and entertaining, and altogether evocative of a vanished Ireland.”— Sunday Times
