Quando o mundo ocidental caiu na escuridão, ela ousou defender a luz. Nascida em 355 EC, após o reinado de… Constantino, Hipátia de Alexandria viveu em um império romano em colapso, um mundo onde a obediência às autoridades religiosas superava a ciência, onde razão e lógica ameaçavam a nova ordem mundial. Era um mundo à beira da Idade das Trevas, um mundo decidindo a questão da ciência versos religião, versos liberdade ortodoxia, versos de tolerância ódio. Por mais de 40 anos, Hipátia ficou entre a idade das trevas e a luz da filosofia clássica, das artes e das ciências. Embora nenhum de seus livros tenha sobrevivido às agressivas queimadas de livros de fanáticos religiosos, seu legado continua sendo o de um dos maiores cientistas de todos os tempos. Esta é a sua história verdadeira e fascinante. Inclui bibliografia, um cronograma detalhado e coordenadas de latitude e longitude para as principais cidades do Império Romano, para que você possa explorar as maravilhas dos céus com Hypatia.

Richard Carlson Jr. foi diagnosticado com esquizofrenia paranoica quando tinha vinte e um anos de idade. Sua doença manifestou-se pela… primeira vez quando ele era um adolescente precoce. A psiquiatria moderna fracassou muito em Richard por mais de uma década. Então, após um incidente envolvendo a polícia, ele realmente entendeu que seu diagnóstico era real e finalmente iniciou o longo processo de recuperação. Mais de dez anos depois, sua vida melhorou muito. No curso de seu tratamento, Richard também se recuperou de depressão, transtorno obsessivo-compulsivo e letargia. Não deixe acontecer o que aconteceu com Richard a você, a um ente querido ou a um paciente que esteja lidando com uma doença mental grave. Seja sempre sincero um com o outro e com o seu psiquiatra.
