Book Description
The purpose of this book is to shed light on the rather unexplored "English facet" of Fernando Pessoa, considered one of the major Portuguese poets of the twentieth century. The originality of this study also lies in its extensive use of unpublished documents. Out of the bulk of Pessoa's English writings, The Mad Fiddler has been selected; it offers not only poems of better quality than most of his writings in English but it also has the advantage of being a complete and coherent suite of " mystical " poems. A systematic comparative study of the themes in The Mad Fiddler and in the poems by the four Portuguese heteronyms reveals a claer continuity and shows that Pessoa's bilingual Poetry is based on his main ontological quest, which he tried to solve by means of his dramatic scattering into " masks ". After this comparative analysis, the individuality of The Mad Fiddler is defined. Following an overwiew of the unpublished English writings found in the Pessoan legacy, The Mad Fiddler is analysed by means of Pessoa's own unpublished comments. An investigation of Pessoa's private French library and of his un published Literary Appreciations proves how fully he understood the impact of Symbolism on the evolution of Modern Art. The Mad Fiddler could indeed be viewed as an English echo of Pessoa's interest in modern trends in Literature and as a kind of " English microcosm " of Pessoa's aesthetic theory.

Book Description
Hoy día muchos científicos comparten el punto de vista platónico de las matemáticas, y se ha llegado a proponer que la realidad que experimentamos no es otra cosa que matemáticas o información. Wigner expresó su asombro ante "la casi irrazonable efectividad de las matemáticas en la descripción del mundo físico", y John Wheller, cuando se le preguntó sobre cual creía que finalmente resultaría ser el elemento fundamental de la realidad, acuñó la famosa frase: "It from bit", para referirse al hecho de que la "información" es el fundamento de la realidad. Hasta algo tan complejo como un ser humano, con cerebro incluido, podría ser descrito por unas relaciones matemáticas muy complicadas y elaboradas, pues estamos hechos de las entidades más fundamentales que tienen naturaleza matemática, y que son descritas por relaciones matemáticas. Por supuesto, al crecer en complejidad las estructuras matemáticas, aparecen nuevas capacidades y propiedades emergentes, que no parecen tener los entes más fundamentales; resulta sorprendente pensar que pudiéramos ser estructuras matemáticas que habitan en el mundo platónico, abstracto e intemporal que concibieron Parménides, Platón y otros filósofos posteriores, pero eso es lo que están considerando algunos científicos de hoy, sumamente impresionados por el poder de las relaciones matemáticas, por su potencia para describir el "mundo físico", lo que inspira una sensación de que tienen poder generador, y que su misma existencia, que parece ser una necesidad lógica, y el hecho de que describan con tanta precisión tal "mundo físico", podría estar realmente diciéndonos que este no es otra cosa que la mismísima manifestación del "mundo matemático", y que por lógica debe contener estructuras de tan alto nivel de complejidad que llegan a ser autoconscientes. Si es realmente así, cabe preguntarse por qué el Universo parece tener una "historia", y nosotros mismos no tenemos consciencia de haber existido siempre; pero eso podría estar relacionado con los "recuerdos". En este libro consideramos este tema a la luz de las ideas y los descubrimientos que se han hecho a lo largo de los siglos hasta nuestros días. Eso nos llevará a tratar temas tan interesantes como la relación entre el tiempo y la eternidad, el origen del tiempo desde una realidad subyacente intemporal, el "libre albedrío", y hasta la mismísima cuestión de la existencia de Dios. Veremos que los descubrimientos de la ciencia podrían encajar perfectamente con el punto de vista que a lo largo de la historia han mantenido las personas creyentes.

Encuentros y desencuentros de los amantes o situaciones de crisis, de agonía, de violencia, la mayoría desde la perspectiva de las vidas de las mujeres en cuyas aristas se adivina un sello que separa y atrae a los protagonistas en una cotidianidad, que a veces pasa desapercibida. Por ello su rescate, análisis lúdico y a veces sensual para ofrecer al lector la posibilidad de reflexión sobre las situaciones que impiden o favorecen los cambios culturales, dado que estos moldean el comportamiento de los personajes, que en mucho se parecen a los de la vida real. The book is a literary proposal to make visible a gender perspective. Within the stories there are reflections with and without this tool, elapse at different times, with real or fictitious stories, stands out the yearning for the lost or still not found, is love, responsibility, response to controversies in relevant topics. Encounters and misunderstandings of lovers, or crisis situations, of agony, of violence, the majority from the perspective of the lives of women, whose edges guess a seal that separates and attracts players in an everyday life that sometimes goes unnoticed. Therefore their rescue, playful and sometimes sensual analysis to provide the reader the possibility of reflection on situations that prevent or favour cultural changes, given that they shape the behavior of the characters, that greatly resemble real life.

Book Description
The Enigma of Atlantida Andres Ruiz Tarazona English and Espanol With The Enigma of Atlantida, Spanish musicologist Andres Ruiz Tarazona, has written a book that envelops the reader in the captivating mystery of Atlantis. L'Atlantida, Jacint Verdaguer's poem, relates the mythological story of the submersion of Atlantis, which created the separation of Latin America from Spain by producing the Alantic Ocean. Subsequently, with the Spanish discovery of America, the two were again unified. Spanish composer Maneul De Falla was born in Cadiz in 1876. While living in Granada, he started work on a Cantata. Based on Verdaguer's text of the poem L'Atlantida, he set about creating a large scale orchestral piece, Atlantida. He considered it his most important work, continuing with it when he moved to Argentina. He had not finished the work when he died in 1946. Ernesto Halffter completed the orchestration after the composer's death.

Book Description
Substance use disorder is a legitimate medical disorder with its locus in the pleasure centers of the brain. People who have addictions frequently also have medical and psychiatric comorbidities that complicate their addictions. With perseverance, all of these challenging disorders can be prevented and treated. Prevention can be classified as primary, secondary, and tertiary. The sine qua non of treatment and prevention is the biopsychosocial model. Classification is crucial in science. As an example, the DSM-5 publication has been an important scientific achievement. In it, Substance- Related and Addictive Disorders can be diagnosed using the four Cs: craving, control (loss of), compulsion, and use despite negative consequences. Thanks to pharmacogenetics and epigenetics in the future, the high risk for different addictions can be clarified. Tragic cases of celebrities can be changed, and their triumphs celebrated instead of their deaths mourned from substance use disorders. Examples of tragic cases in the past are Ernest Hemingway, whose family also suffered five suicides (including Hemingway himself), and Eugene ONeill with three suicides in his family. On the other hand, Bob and Bill W., Betty Ford, and Robert Downey Jr. and Drew Barrymore all succeeded in their fights against addiction. As far as I know, Hemingway and ONeil were never told they had an alcohol use disorder and were never referred to AA. Although it is speculation, if both authors and their families were treated with lithium (used for mania first in Australia in 1949 and approved for the treatment of mood disorders in the United States in 1972) or, in the future, ketamine, their suicides could have been prevented. Bob Smith and Bill Watson, who experienced a spiritual transformation experience, were able to abstain from alcohol for the rest of their lives. Evidence-based studies can be used along with FDA-approved addiction medication as part of the biopsychosocial model. For alcohol use disorders, three medications are recommended: disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone. The key is determining which medication is indicated for a specific patient. For cocaine and stimulant use disorders, FDA-approved medications for the treatment of ADHD are an alternative for patients trying to self-medicate with cocaine. For opiate use disorders, three other medications are also FDA-approved: naltrexone, methadone and buprenorphine. I favor buprenorphine due to the fact that is a partial mu blocker (the mu receptor is the most important analgesic opiate receptor)the risk of respiratory depression in cases of overdosing is low, and the success rate is high. Buprenorphine can be paired with naloxone, which is an opiate blocker, to prevent the illegal distribution. Kits with naloxone, Evzio (brand name of naloxone 0.4-milligram auto-injector), are being distributed to patients and family members, making it a life-saving medication similar to EpiPen for the treatment of anaphylactic shock. In order to diminish the risk of diversion, many deterrent techniques are being developed by manufactures of opiates. All these precautions will be almost superfluous if an implantable version of buprenorphine becomes available. Effective and updated medical education is the best antidote against stigma. Above all, all patients with substance use disorders should be treated with respect and humane care.
