Product Description
A Broken Existence: The Journey of a Bipolar is an autobiographical work based on the author’s constant struggle with manic-depressive disorder. Mr Wright examines himself and shares his struggles with the disorder. Wright mentions his two-and-a-half-month stay and four-month stay in the Wyoming State Hospital after suicide attempts. Wayne sheds light on his constant struggle to fit into society. This work is designed to enlighten the reader about the realities of people who struggle with bipolar disorder. It should also appeal to the reader who struggles with the disorder, those with a loved one who suffers, or those who seek insight into the depths of this illness. It is the intention of the author to not only educate the public, but to dispel the stigma concerning the mentally ill.

Description:
An outline is presented of five main psychological models of the bipolar disorders. These approaches include the Behavioural Activation/Inhibition Systems model, the Cognitive Therapy model, the Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy model, the Interacting Cognitive Subsystems model, and the SPAARS model. Strengths and weaknesses are highlighted for each approach. It is concluded that although there is no model that can adequately account for even the key features of the bipolar disorders (such as periodicity, shifts in the valence of the self-concept, mixed affective states, and patterns of recovery and relapse), nevertheless, more recently developed multi-level approaches to emotion offer more sophisticated possibilities for modeling these complex disorders.

Following on the heels of Kidd’s successful stageshow and award winning book / CD Sea Peach , which she has toured to the Edinburgh Fringe among other locales, comes her new book / DVD bipolar bear. Featuring almost all new material, it contains a story about meerkats, imaginary numbers and counting sheep, blue orbs, an iguana’s flying leap from a window which provokes police intervention and choice, and the illogical and suicidal tendencies of human commerce as told by a philosophizing polar bear. Part Dr. Seuss for adults and part spiritual quest, Catherine Kidd’s unique brand of performance literature has impressed audiences across the globe. Catherine Kidd’s writing has been published in three other conundrum press releases: everything I know about love I learned from taxidermy, psittacine flute, and Sea Peach . She has performed her writing all over the globe: from New York to the Edinburgh Fringe, from Bavaria to Singapore to the Toronto Harbourfront World Stage, from Volapük Oslo to Ladyfest Bristol and many points in between. To make ends meet her voice can be heard on numerous commercials, including back up for Celine Dion. She has written jingles for Maybeline and once spent eleven hours in a shower with Halle Berry.

Product Description
Losing a Hand was written by Ed over the past thirty years. It documents how he first came in contact with amputee friends, and then tells of how he chose amputation for himself and then with the aid of a powersaw removed his own hand.
The book follows with stories of his adaptation — and success — into amputee life. The lessons he learned and how they learned them should be inspiring to all, but especially to those people who know amputees or are amputees themselves, either by choice or by fate.
The book also contains many case studies of others who lost one or more hands. It’s written in a wonderful (and easy to read) down-to-earth style and comes highly recommended.

Description:
This work elucidates the mechanism of electric-field-enhanced water dissociation. Particular attention has been given to the influences of water electrotransport and monolayer asymmetry on the water dissociation process. A simple model was proposed with consideration of these two factors and mathematically analyzed in term of thickness ratio, fixed group concentration ratio and water diffusivity ratio of the anion selective layer to the cation selective layer on typical current density curves of bipolar membranes. The results suggest that for practical applications, an asymmetric bipolar membrane with proper ion-exchange capacity and high permeability to water is more effective than a symmetric one. Theoretical simulation values were compared with both the theoretically calculated data by a model without consideration of water electrotransport and the experimental current voltage curves. It is shown that the calculated potential across a bipolar membrane is higher at given current density, which permits a more precise prediction of experimental I-V curves for the case of a bipolar membrane with high water permeability. However, for a bipolar membrane with poorer water permeability, it seems that the calculated value with the model without consideration of water electrotransport is closer to the experimental values, but the model with consideration of water electrotransport can effectively predict the over-limiting current density.
