The purpose of Psychology for Better Living is to present material that can be utilized by the young adult in meeting the problems of everyday life. This book was written for those college students who are interested in learning some of the fundamentals of psychology, as well as those who wish to know more about mental hygiene. I have tried to keep in mind others, such as the policeman, the nurse, and the fireman, who are attending classes with the nineteen- and twenty-year-olds. In Psychology for Better Living, special consideration has been given to the information desired by lower-division college students about man's emotions, behavior, and values, as well as making material available for more effective methods of dealing with others. It is said that courses available to college students frequently do not offer them the help necessary to form an understanding of human values and what makes the good life. With today's educational emphasis on scientific and technological advances, the social and interpersonal values have been neglected. This need was considered and the problem was approached with a variety of currently accepted procedures. It is hoped this book will help to foster the building of appropriate behavior patterns that will promote social compatibility". (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).

The purpose of this Special Issue, "Egg Consumption and Human Health," is two-fold: 1. to address the lack of effect of eggs in increasing heart disease risk (this discussion will be based on what is known from epidemiological analysis and clinical interventions) and 2. to focus on the role of eggs in protecting against chronic disease. Eggs are more than just a cholesterol-containing food. They possess numerous nutritional benefits. This Special Issue will discuss eggs as a source of high-quality protein for individuals across the life spectrum, as a substantial source of choline (a known neurotransmitter involved in cognitive function), and as a source of highly bioavailable lutein and zeaxanthin (two carotenoids well-recognized for their major role in protecting against age-related macular degeneration and cataracts, as well as for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties). Finally, the potential of incorporating eggs for weight loss interventions, due to their low glycemic index and their satiety effects, will also be discussed.

Que puis-je faire pour éviter la maladie d'Alzheimer ? Est-ce héréditaire ? Quels sont les signes précurseurs ? Et les facteurs de risques ? C'est pour répondre à ces questions que le Dr Marwan Sabbagh, médecin et chercheur mondialement reconnu, a écrit ce livre à la fois instructif et pratique. Ses 20 ans de recherches l'ont convaincu : oui, il est possible de prévenir la maladie d'Alzheimer, pourvu qu'on adopte les bons réflexes de vie : • choisir des aliments qui boostent le cerveau • surveiller son taux de cholestérol • ajuster (voire augmenter !) sa consommation d'alcool • bouger, mais aussi faire marcher ses neurones • prendre les vitamines et les suppléments qui font la différence Il expose également de façon limpide : • les complications possibles • les dernières percées médicales • les traitements les plus prometteurs Message d'espoir à l'attention de ceux qui redoutent la maladie ou dont un proche est atteint, Ma stratégie anti-Alzheimer donne des moyens concrets pour lutter contre l'apparition et l'évolution des symptômes à tout âge, et nous prouve qu'il n'est jamais trop tard pour prendre soin de son cerveau.
