La felicidad no es fruto del azar: es una conquista.Ser feliz no consiste en tener una existencia perfecta que llene todos nuestros anhelos psíquicos, espirituales y materiales. No: ser feliz es algo aparentemente más simple, pero que sólo se puede alcanzar con voluntad, esfuerzo y las herramientas adecuadas. Es reconocer que vale la pena vivir, a pesar de todos los retos, pérdidas y frustraciones que hallamos en el camino. Es dejar de sucumbir ante los problemas y escribir nuestra propia historia.El exitoso psiquiatra Augusto Cury presenta en estas páginas diez claves para hallar esperanza en el dolor, fuerza en el miedo, amor en los desencuentros cotidianos. El cuidado de la salud, la gestión de las emociones y los pensamientos, la apertura ante la belleza y el asombro ante lo nuevo son algunas de las armas que nos ayudarán a transitar el maravilloso camino a una vida más plena.

Plague of Corruption
By Mikovits, Judy
Dr. Judy Mikovits is a modern-day Rosalind Franklin, a brilliant researcher shaking up the old boys' club of science with her groundbreaking discoveries. And like many women who have trespassed into the world of men, she uncovered decades-old secrets that many would prefer to stay buried.From her doctoral thesis, which changed the treatment of HIV-AIDS, saving the lives of millions, including basketball great Magic Johnson, to her spectacular discovery of a new family of human retroviruses, and her latest research which points to a new golden age of health, Dr. Mikovits has always been on the leading edge of science.With the brilliant wit one might expect if Erin Brockovich had a doctorate in molecular biology, Dr. Mikovits has seen the best and worst of science.

Lifelines
By Wen, Leana
'"Public health saved your life today -- you just don't know it," is a phrase that Dr. Leana Wen likes to use. You don't know it because good public health is invisible. It becomes visible only in its absence, when it is underfunded and ignored, a bitter truth laid bare as never before by the devastation of COVID-19.Leana Wen -- emergency physician, former Baltimore health commissioner, CNN medical analyst, and Washington Post contributing columnist -- has lived on the front lines of public health, leading the fight against the opioid epidemic, outbreaks of infectious disease, maternal and infant mortality, and COVID-19 disinformation. Here, in gripping detail, Wen lays bare the lifesaving work of public health and its innovative approach to social ills, treating gun violence as a contagious disease, for example, and racism as a threat to health.

The People's Hospital
By Nuila, Ricardo
Where does one go without health insurance, when turned away by hospitals, clinics, and doctors? In The People's Hospital, physician Ricardo Nuila's stunning debut, we follow the lives of five uninsured Houstonians as their struggle for survival leads them to a hospital where insurance comes second to genuine care.. First, we meet Stephen, the restaurant franchise manager who signed up for his company's lowest priced plan, only to find himself facing insurmountable costs after a cancer diagnosis. Then Christian - a young college student and retail worker who can't seem to get an accurate diagnosis, let alone treatment, for his debilitating knee pain. Geronimo, thirty-six years old, has liver failure, but his meager disability check disqualifies him for Medicaid - and puts a life-saving transplant just out of reach.

Clutter
By Howard, Jennifer
"I'm sitting on the floor in my mother's house, surrounded by stuff." So begins Jennifer Howard's Clutter, an expansive assessment of our relationship to the things that share and shape our lives. Sparked by the painful two-year process of cleaning out her mother's house in the wake of a devastating physical and emotional collapse, Howard sets her own personal struggle with clutter against a meticulously researched history of just how the developed world came to drown in material goods. With sharp prose and an eye for telling detail, she connects the dots between the Industrial Revolution, the Sears & Roebuck catalog, and the Container Store, and shines unsparing light on clutter's darker connections to environmental devastation and hoarding disorder.
