This fully illustrated study assesses the origins, development, and combat record of the legendary Tiger and Churchill Tanks during World War II. The Tiger and the Churchill are two of the most recognizable heavily armoured tanks of World War II. Both were designed hastily in the early years of the war, and both witnessed inauspicious debuts in battle in August 1942 (the Churchill in the disaster at Dieppe, the Tiger near Leningrad). Despite their heavy weight, both tanks had surprisingly good tactical mobility, and were intended to serve in breakthrough operations. Yet there were key differences between them too, chiefly in the effectiveness of their main armament. This fascinating and detailed work explores the design and development of these famous tanks and the influence this had on their head-to-head encounters, the support services each tank relied upon, and the skills and experiences of the crews that fought in them. The specific battlefield conditions of Normandy in June and July 1944 are also examined, exploring the effect they had on the duels between these two heavyweight AFVs. .

Nejrůznější terapeutické školy se shodují v tom, že člověk trpící např. depresemi, fobiemi, obsesemi a jinými poruchami, je obětí sil, nad kterými nemá vládu. Renomovaný autor na poli kognitivní terapie nabízí perspektivu, ve které emoční problémy člověka souvisejí do značné míry s pokřivením reality, založeným na chybných předpokladech a závěrech. V průběhu kognitivní terapie pomáhá terapeut pacientovi objasnit tato pokřivení a naučit se alternativní, realističtější způsoby, jak formulovat vlastní zkušenosti. Ve své knize se A. T. Beck konkrétněji zabývá nejčastějšími typy emočních poruch a jejich kognitivním obsahem a následně předkládá principy a techniky kognitivní terapie.
Part of a Growing International Movement to Change the Face of Mental Illness.Is madness purely a medical condition that can be treated with drugs? Is there really a clear dividing line between mental health and mental illness - or is it not so easy to classify who is sane and who is insane?In Madness Explained leading clinical psychologist Richard Bentall shatters the modern myths that surround psychosis. This groundbreaking work argues that we cannot define madness as an illness to be cured like any other; that labels such as 'schizophrenia' and 'manic depression' are meaningless, based on nineteenth-century classifications; and that experiences such as delusions and hearing voices are in fact exaggerations of the mental foibles to which we are all vulnerable.We need, Bentall argues, a radically new way of thinking about psychiatric problems - one that does not reduce madness to bain chemistry, but understands and accepts it as part of human nature.'Bentall destroys many of the foundations underlying psychiatric thinking' - Oliver James'A monumental study ... brave, well-researched and accessible' - Scotland on Sunday'Bental demystifies psychosis and restores the patient to a proper place with the rest of humankind' - Aaron T.
