Heal Me: In Search of a Cure
By Julia Buckley. 2017
Julia Buckley needs a miracle. Like a third of the UK population, she has a chronic pain condition. According to…
her doctors, it can't be cured. She doesn't believe them. She does believe in miracles, though. It's just a question of tracking one down.Julia's search for a cure takes her on a global quest, exploring the boundaries between science, psychology and faith with practitioners on the fringes of conventional, traditional and alternative medicine. From neuroplastic brain rewiring in San Francisco to medical marijuana in Colorado, Haitian vodou rituals to Brazilian 'spiritual surgery', she's willing to try anything. Can miracles happen? And more importantly, what happens next if they do?Raising vital questions about the modern medical system, this is also a story about identity in a system historically skewed against 'hysterical' female patients, and the struggle to retain a sense of self under the medical gaze. Heal Me explains why modern medicine's current approach to chronic pain is failing patients. It explores the importance of faith, hope and cynicism, and examines our relationships with our doctors, our beliefs and ourselves.(p) 2017 Orion Publishing Group with Audible Ltd

How to be well: Navigating our self-care epidemic, one dubious cure at a time
By Amy Larocca. 2025
A deeply researched, lively, and personal exploration of the multibillion-dollar wellness industry — about why women are feeling so un-well…
and how this trend has shaped our thinking about health and self-care Peloton. Pilates. Biohacking. Colonics. Ashwagandha. Today, the wellness industry is a $3.7 trillion behemoth that touches us all. In this timely and clear-eyed book, journalist Amy Larocca peels back the layers behind the wellness movement and reckons with its promises and profits. How did we get here and how did the idea of wellness become integrated with women's lives? And how did we end up spending so much money on products that may not work at all? Amy Larocca takes readers into the communities that swear by their activated charcoal toothpaste and green juice enemas, explaining what each of these practices really is—and what the science says. Larocca holds a magnifying glass to alternative medicine and nouveau lifestyle prescriptions — and tries a lot herself along the way — ultimately delivering an assessment of how the wellness industry embodies our (gendered, class-based, racialized) perceptions of care and self-improvement, and how it preys on our unshakable fear of the unknown. She traces the history of how the beauty and fashion industries have peddled snake oil to women for decades—and why we keep coming back for more. A clear-eyed and honest portrait of the weird world of wellness, How to Be Well lays bare the ways in which the simple notion of caring for oneself has become a seriously big business

Lettres biologiques: recherches sur la sexualité humaine
By Marie-Victorin. 2018
" Un ensemble de textes inédits du frère Marie-Victorin. Ces textes, que le scientifique nommait lui-même ses lettres biologiques ,…
sont tirés d'une correspondance qu'il a entretenue pendant plus de dix ans, de 1933 à 1944, avec celle qui était son assistante à l'Institut et au Jardin botaniques de Montréal, Marcelle Gauvreau. Formant un tout cohérent, ils contiennent ses réflexions et enquêtes sur la sexualité. On y voit Marie-Victorin aborder un champ d'études nouveau à une époque où la morale dominante rendait impensable toute discussion publique sur le sujet. La publication de ces lettres s'imposait, car elles représentent une contribution importante à l'histoire de la sexualité au Québec et à celle de la vie religieuse. En effet, les sources sur la vie intime des religieux sont rares, et tout ce qui touche à la sexualité est resté tabou jusqu'aux années 1960, au Québec comme ailleurs en Occident. Si ces lettres risquent encore de choquer de nos jours, c'est parce qu'elles présentent une vision de la vie sexuelle et du célibat bien éloignée de celle d'aujourd'hui. Elles nous rappellent la grande noirceur qui entourait alors les questions sexuelles et nous permettent de mesurer le chemin parcouru depuis. Ces lettres intéresseront autant l'historien que le psychologue ou le psychanalyste, car elles nous font découvrir une amitié profonde et spirituelle entre un homme et une femme, fondée sur une relation à Dieu qui barre la route à une relation physique que les deux savent impossible. Elles intéresseront également un public plus vaste, en ce qu'elles permettent de poser des jalons essentiels dans la trajectoire d'un intellectuel qui a profondément influencé la société québécoise par sa liberté d'esprit et de parole ainsi que son désir de secouer les conventions.
