In Pain Almost In Vain

In Pain Almost In Vain is a real-life account of a nervous disorder patient from the moment he was diagnosed, through his journey finding the cure, not curing, up till rehabilitation. His disorder affects his sensory, muscle motors and digestive system. He is still in continuous pain due to his skin hypersensitiveness, burning sensation, muscle cramps, stiffness, numbness, imbalance and a slightly improved digestive system. He writes about how his disorder brought him to meet different practitioners and people who have changed his outlook towards life. He approached his predicament as a normal human with remorse, anger, frustration and he didn't hide his real feelings. He expressed what he sees and experienced in a casual, sincere and slightly humorous manner. In Pain Almost In Vain shows how all problems should be faced in a child-like attitude, trying everything possible, listen to suggestions and do it without worrying about the results because we are not the one determining it. He realized from his ailment that out there, people are readily willing to help him, not individualistic as he perceived. He has learned that being with other patients is an education. It is a book about appreciation, love and hope.

George Orwell set out ‘to make political writing into an art’, and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature – his descriptions of authoritarian regimes helped to form a new vocabulary that is fundamental to understanding totalitarianism. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels in the English language, this new series of Orwell’s essays seeks to bring a wider selection of his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. In Why I Write, the first in the Orwell’s Essays series, Orwell describes his journey to becoming a writer, and his movement from writing poems to short stories to the essays, fiction and non-fiction we remember him for. He also discusses what he sees as the ‘four great motives for writing’ – ‘sheer egoism’, ‘aesthetic enthusiasm’, ‘historical impulse’ and ‘political purpose’ – and considers the importance of keeping these in balance. Why I Write is a unique opportunity to look into Orwell’s mind, and it grants the reader an entirely different vantage point from which to consider the rest of the great writer’s oeuvre.

In order to cope with the demands of the future society, people may be more overburdened with mental activities. A heavy burden of mental activity may lead to an increased risk of related diseases. Among these diseases, the most painful experience for patients is trigeminal neuralgia. Therefore, the study of trigeminal neuralgia has a very important position for future human development. To this day, the pathogenesis of primary trigeminal neuralgia remains unclear. Only a physical structure is known to compress the trigeminal nerve, causing severe pain. If doctors only know the symptoms of this disease, but do not know the cause, they can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. The thesis is the author's four-year quest to fight trigeminal neuralgia. The author continuously tried and observed potential pathogenic factors in the environment. And he also assessed their level of risk. It is impossible for the average researcher to follow a case of trigeminal neuralgia for so long. Most of the researchers in this area are doctors. They are naturally unlikely to ask patients to take risks in order to study the pathogenic mechanism. It is against medical ethics to put patients in severe pain in order to study the pathogenic factors. But this is also a key reason preventing researchers from exploring pathogenic factors. Therefore, the author himself tested which environmental conditions were more likely to cause disease. Eventually, this study establishes a clearer pathogenic mechanism for primary trigeminal neuralgia. The disease is related to factors such as mental activity and blood viscosity. This study also established a set of massage method to effectively inhibit trigeminal neuralgia.

This comprehensive, up-to-date textbook offers detailed coverage of venous anatomy, pathophysiology, imaging, and management of venous pathology, leading the practitioner through all aspects of care of the venous patient. The various techniques that have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of venous disease during the past decade are all discussed, with clear guidance on their indications and performance. The book is exceptional in being based entirely on the curriculum designed for board certification by the American College of Phlebology. A further unique aspect of the text is the integration of ultrasound, which now plays a fundamental role in diagnosis and management. The authors come from a wide range of specialties and the book will accordingly serve the needs of vascular and general surgeons, interventional radiologists, phlebologists, ultrasonographers, and other practitioners, as well as those preparing for board examinations.​

Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" is considered to be one of the most important treatises on ethics ever written. In an incredibly detailed study of virtue and vice in man, Aristotle examines one of the most central themes to man, the nature of goodness itself. In Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics," he asserts that virtue is essential to happiness and that man must live in accordance with the "doctrine of the mean" (the balance between excess and deficiency) to achieve such happiness.
