When Dr. Tom More is released on parole from state prison, he returns to Feliciana, Louisiana, the parish where he was born and bred, where he practiced psychiatry before his arrest. He immediately notices something strange in almost everyone around him: unusual sexual behavior in women patients, a bizarre loss of inhibition, his own wife's extraordinary success as bridge tournaments, during which her mind seems to function like a computer. With the help of his attractive cousin, Dr. Lucy Lipscomb, Dr. More begins to uncover a criminal experimentto "improve" people's behavior by drugging the local water supply. But beyond this scheme are activities so sinister that Dr. More can only wonder if the whole world has gone crazy -- or he has . . .

Dr. Tom More investigates a sudden outbreak of unusual behavior in Feliciana, Louisiana, and uncovers a criminal experiment to "improve" behavior patterns through the secret use of drugs in the local water supply

Un doveroso omaggio a tre icone del sexy-thrilling all'italiana come Sergio Martino, Ernesto Gastaldi, Edwige Fenech (Lo strano vizio della signora Wardh, Perché quelle strane gocce di sangue sul corpo di Jennifer?, Tutti i colori del buio, Il tuo vizio è una stanza chiusa e solo io ne ho la chiave) e a due outsider del genere, Fernando Di Leo (La bestia uccide a sangue freddo) e Roberto Bianchi Montero (Rivelazioni di un maniaco sessuale al capo della squadra mobile). Sei gialli sadici e morbosi dei primi anni '70, che sono rimasti nella memoria di tutti gli appassionati del cinema-bis, rivivono in questo libro attraverso le scene più calde" ed emozionanti recuperate nella loro integrità grazie ai preziosi cineromanzi pubblicati all'epoca.

Varese, 2009; br., pp. 344, cm 15x21.(Grandi Direttori. 5). "Thomas Schippers era giovane anni fa, era l'angelo anni fa e niente è più malinconico della condizione d'un giovane ignorato dai giovani e prigioniero d'una cassetta così piccola e così leggera" (Giovanni Mosca). Un giovane, Schippers, certo: perché non ha mai conosciuto la vecchiaia, perché la gattopardiana "signora con la veletta", la Morte, l'ha ghermito anzitempo. Un direttore d'orchestra il cui battito - del cuore e del tempo - è ormai cenere chiusa in quella cassetta, incastonata nelle pietre di Piazza del Duomo, a Spoleto. Un musicista verso il quale la storiografia del podio e del golfo mistico non è reticente, ma che il nostro tempo va dimenticando, che i nostri giovani vanno ignorando, che l'attualità volubile pone nelle retrovie. Ricostruire la figura umana ed artistica di Schippers, è un atto criticamente urgente per poter dire, senza peccar d'omissione, l'appassionante racconto dell'opera e del concerto nella seconda metà del Novecento prima che il vento ne sperda le memorie. Il libro dedicato a Thomas Schippers è senz'altro "outsider" in questa collana, per estensione e per apparati critici. Insieme ad una biografia ricostruita sotto la duplice angolatura soggettiva e contestuale, vi sfilano, nel testo e fuori testo, "memorie", testimonianze piene d'interesse e d'affetto; e vi s'accodano una cronologia e una discografia minuziose: ché l'opinione non può andar disgiunta dal dato e viceversa.

This work offers a psychodynamic insight into Thanatic behaviours and considers the implications for organizational studies. To further inform organizational leadership theory and praxis there is a requirement to uncover the origins of these destructive behaviours, which the authors believe reside in the realm of the unconscious.

Eros and Thanatos converge in the story of a glorious youth, an untimely death, and an imperial love affair that gives rise to the last pagan god of antiquity. In this coming-of-age novel set in the second century AD, Antinous of Bithynia, a Greek youth from Asia Minor, recounts his seven-year affair with Hadrian, fourteenth emperor of Rome. In a partnership more intimate than Hadrian’s sanctioned political marriage to Sabina, Antinous captivates the most powerful ruler on earth both in life and after death. This version of the affair between the emperor and his beloved ephebe vindicates the youth scorned by early Christian church fathers as a “shameless and scandalous boy” and “sordid and loathsome instrument of his master’s lust.” EROMENOS envisions the personal history of the young man who achieved apotheosis as a pagan god of antiquity, whose cult of worship lasted for hundreds of years—far longer than the cult of the emperor Hadrian. In Eromenos, the young man Antinous, whose beautiful image still may be found in art museums around the world, finds a voice of his own at last.

Winner of the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. A wise and graceful new collection by one of our "major, indispensable poets" (Sidney Lea). The mysteries of Eros and Thanatos, the stubborn endurance of mind and body in the face of diminishment--these are the undercurrents of Stephen Dunn's eleventh volume. "I am interested in exploring the 'different' hours," he says, "not only of one's life, but also of the larger historical and philosophical life beyond the personal."

The nuptials of eros and thanatos unveil their irresistible attraction in Alban Bergs unfinished Lulu, based on the work of German playwright Frank Wedekind, considered one of the major works of the 20th c. in general, and of opera in particular. + Krzysztof Warlikowski delves the innermost depths of the human psyche and chooses to tackle "Lulu" as a deeply moving requiem to the memory of an angel. + Featured in the title role is Canadian soprano Barbara Hannigan. + Paul Daniel conducts the

The career of the greatest painter of the twentieth century was played out in the shadow of Eros -- and of Thanatos. At the age of eight, Picasso's first drawings already displayed a precocious interest in the female form, and in the days leading up to his death he was still working obsessively on sketches of the female sex.
