The Years of Alienation in Italy offers an interdisciplinary overview of the socio-political, psychological, philosophical, and cultural meanings that the notion of alienation took on in Italy between the 1960s and the 1970s. It addresses alienation as a social condition of estrangement, caused by the capitalist system, a pathological state of the mind and an ontological condition of subjectivity. Contributors to the edited volume explore the pervasive influence this multifarious concept had on literature, cinema, architecture, and photography in Italy. The collection also theoretically reassesses the notion of alienation from a novel perspective, employing Italy as a paradigmatic case study in its pioneering role in the revolution of mental health care and factory work during these two decades. Alessandra Diazzi is Lecturer in Italian at the University of Manchester, UK. Her work focuses primarily on the reception of psychoanalysis in Italian culture, with a particular focus on the relationship between psychoanalysis and impegno in Italy. She has published articles on contemporary Italian literature and cinema. Alvise Sforza Tarabochia is Lecturer in Italian at the University of Kent, UK. His research encompasses visual culture and psychiatry in Italy. He has published a monograph on the theoretical implications of Basaglia’s thought, as well as articles on Italian literature, biopolitics, visual culture and psychoanalysis.

From Aspirin to Viagra, insulin to penicillin, and vaccines to vitamin supplements, drugs have become part of our everyday lives. This staggering global industry wasn’t born overnight; advancements in pharmaceutical science have been happening for a long while, over the course of decades and even centuries. This book tells the history of ten prominent substances and how they came to be common household names. It shows how the creation of such influential drugs often began with the right person at the exactly right—or wrong!— time. The chapters tell the stories of geniuses and charlatans; scholars and amateurs; advances won through hard work or pure luck; and ultimately, the handful of resounding successes that revolutionized a global industry. Beyond the pioneers of the most famous drugs in our culture, the book analyzes how our perspective on medical treatment has shifted over the decades. Modern standards for testing and administering substances have created a new set of advantages, setbacks, and stigmas, all of which are discussed herein.

This book puts forth the theory that autism is congenital brain disorder not a "neuro-developmental disorder." Autistic humans are the defectives of nature's factory and are not wired right. They should be institutionalized if they show violent tendencies because they lack empathy for other human beings as their illness makes them think only of themselves as in the word auto. Automobile. Self Moving. These misfits have taken more lives in the mass shootings than any other group and it is time for the public to do something about it. This book examines the most gregarious cases one by one and demonstrates that if not for the Politically Correct BS generated by Obama's Department of Miseducation and Autism Speaks, a lobby group for mass murder, a lot of these attacks could have been prevented. It is not worth sacrificing the lives of normal young people so a bunch of miscreants can be accepted by society. Autistic people should NOT be allowed to own guns nor should they have access to others guns. Look what happened to Nancy Lanza. She let Adam have access to guns and he killed dozens of little children after killing this mother varmint with a varmint gun.
