Public attention and scrutiny has dimmed following most of these notable, tragic and publicized events, deaths and murders. Each included historical profile spawns a secondary tale concerning the surviving victims, intimate family coping with loss and the consequential aftermath. The edition highlights sixty momentous and obscure calamities and their profound effect on those left behind. In some instances the immediate trauma and impact has become lethal. In other instances, the road towards recovery has generated a profound influence on others. These accompanying survivor biographies are equally compelling and represent an important continuity to a larger perspective of understanding. Volume One is a compilation of sixty combined well-documented and obscure biographies. They include: Jimi Hendrix’s Accidental Overdose and The Sole Witness James Dean’s Fatal Collision and the Two Survivors The Decadent Decline of Doors’ Lead Singer Jim Morrison and his companion Pam Courson The Zodiac Serial Killer: Taunting Authorities Lady Diana Spencer’s Fatal Paris Crash Ted Bundy: The Man Who Lived To Kill Women Singer Kurt Cobain’s Prelude and Final Act Actor Errol Flynn’s Final Debauchery Gangster Al Capone’s desperate venereal disease treatment and his Chicago Outfit gang The Washington D.C.

Download and read online ebook Trauma and Recovery write by Judith Lewis Herman. This book was released on 2015-07-07. Trauma and Recovery available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In this groundbreaking book, a leading clinical psychiatrist redefines how we think about and treat victims of trauma. A "stunning achievement" that remains a "classic for our generation." (Bessel van der Kolk, M.D., author of The Body Keeps the Score). Trauma and Recovery is revered as the seminal text on understanding trauma survivors. By placing individual experience in a broader political frame, Harvard psychiatrist Judith Herman argues that psychological trauma is inseparable from its social and political context. Drawing on her own research on incest, as well as a vast literature on combat veterans and victims of political terror, she shows surprising parallels between private horrors like child abuse and public horrors like war. Hailed by the New York Times as "one of the most important psychiatry works to be published since Freud," Trauma and Recovery is essential reading for anyone who seeks to understand how we heal and are healed.

From award-winning author Deborah Heiligman comes Torpedoed, a true account of the attack and sinking of the passenger ship SS City of Benares, which was evacuating children from England during WWII. Amid the constant rain of German bombs and the escalating violence of World War II, British parents by the thousands chose to send their children out of the country: the wealthy, independently; the poor, through a government relocation program called CORB. In September 1940, passenger liner SS City of Benares set sail for Canada with one hundred children on board. When the war ships escorting the Benares departed, a German submarine torpedoed what became known as the Children's Ship. Out of tragedy, ordinary people became heroes. This is their story. This title has Common Core connections.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The award-winning book that inspired an Apple Original series from Apple TV+ • A landmark investigation of patient deaths at a New Orleans hospital ravaged by Hurricane Katrina—and the suspenseful portrayal of the quest for truth and justice—from a Pulitzer Prize–winning physician and reporter “An amazing tale, as inexorable as a Greek tragedy and as gripping as a whodunit.”—Dallas Morning News After Hurricane Katrina struck and power failed, amid rising floodwaters and heat, exhausted staff at Memorial Medical Center designated certain patients last for rescue. Months later, a doctor and two nurses were arrested and accused of injecting some of those patients with life-ending drugs. Five Days at Memorial, the culmination of six years of reporting by Pulitzer Prize winner Sheri Fink, unspools the mystery, bringing us inside a hospital fighting for its life and into the most charged questions in health care: which patients should be prioritized, and can health care professionals ever be excused for hastening death? Transforming our understanding of human nature in crisis, Five Days at Memorial exposes the hidden dilemmas of end-of-life care and reveals how ill-prepared we are for large-scale disasters—and how we can do better.
