Paperback. Condition: Good. Depression has been your experience for so long that you've begun to believe it is what you are. But it is something you have -- just as, for example, one has heart disease. Like heart disease, says psychotherapist Richard O'Connor, depression is fueled by complex and interrelated factors: genetic, biochemical, environmental. In this refreshingly sensible book, O'Connor focuses on an additional factor often overlooked: our own habits. Unwittingly, we get good at depression. We learn how to hide it, how to work around it. We may even achieve great things, but with constant struggle rather than satisfaction, and so we deprive ourselves of true recovery, of deep joy and healthy emotion. Undoing Depression teaches us how to replace depressive patterns of thinking, relating, and behaving with a new and more effective set of skills. O'Connor also provides new information on medications, stress-related afflictions, the benefits of meditation and exercise, and the link between depression and attention disorders. With a truly holistic approach that synthesizes the best of the many schools of thought about this painful disease, O'Connor offers new hope -- and new life -- for sufferers of depression. Full of dependable and inspiring information. The intelligence in this book is deeply satisfying. -- Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul and Dark Nights of the Soul This up-to-date, clearly written, and illuminating book about the nature and treatment of depression is just plain wonderful. I view it as a gift to us all. -- Maggie Scarf, author of Unfinished Business and Intimate Partners.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The New York Times bestselling account of the real-life murder that inspired the birth of modern detective fiction. In June of 1860 three-year-old Saville Kent was found at the bottom of an outdoor privy with his throat slit. The crime horrified all England and led to a national obsession with detection, ironically destroying, in the process, the career of perhaps the greatest detective in the land. At the time, the detective was a relatively new invention; there were only eight detectives in all of England and rarely were they called out of London, but this crime was so shocking, as Kate Summerscale relates in her scintillating new book, that Scotland Yard sent its best man to investigate, Inspector Jonathan Whicher. Whicher quickly believed the unbelievable--that someone within the family was responsible for the murder of young Saville Kent. Without sufficient evidence or a confession, though, his case was circumstantial and he returned to London a broken man. Though he would be vindicated five years later, the real legacy of Jonathan Whicher lives on in fiction: the tough, quirky, knowing, and all-seeing detective that we know and love today . . . from the cryptic Sgt. Cuff in Wilkie Collins's The Moonstone to Dashiell Hammett's Sam Spade. The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher is a provocative work of nonfiction that reads like a Victorian thriller, and in it Kate Summerscale has fashioned a brilliant, multilayered narrative that is as cleverly constructed as it is beautifully written.…
