My vill inte bada. Inte idag, inte med kaninpuffar, inte alls. Men när hon går en bit bort från stranden träffar hon Fatou – en flicka med en magisk pinne, en vild fantasi och mod nog för dem båda. Snart förvandlas en liten bäck till rymdresor, tjuvjakter, brinnande polishus och farliga vattenvidunder. Mitt i leken hamnar My plötsligt där hon aldrig tänkt vara: i vattnet. Och kanske är det inte så farligt som hon trott.

En berättelse om fantasi, vänskap och att vara modig i precis sin egen takt.

"Starka färger och en oerhörd detaljrikedom i de uttrycksfulla illustrationerna präglar boken"

What if philosophy could solve the psychological puzzle of trauma? Embodied Trauma and Healing argues just that, suggesting that one might be needed in order to understand the other. The book demonstrates how the body-mind problem that haunted Descartes was addressed by phenomenologists, whilst also proposing that the human experience is lived subjectively as embodied consciousness.

Throughout this book, the author suggests that the phenomenological tools that are used to explore the body can also be an effective way to discuss the physical and mental aspects of embodied trauma. Drawing on the work of Paul Ricœur, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Emmanuel Lévinas, the book outlines a phenomenological approach to the embodied and relational subject. It offers a reading of embodied trauma that can connect it to wider conversations in psychological underpinnings of trauma through Peter Levine’s somatic research and Bessel van der Kolk’s embodied remembering. Connecting to the analytic tradition, the book suggests that phenomenology can unify both language-based and body-based therapeutic practice. It also presents a compelling discussion that ties the embodied experience of relation in trauma to the wider causal factors of social suffering and relational rupture, intergenerational trauma and the trauma of land, as informed by phenomenology.

Embodied Trauma and Healing is essential reading for researchers within the fields of philosophy, psychology and medical humanities for it actively engages with contemporary configurations of trauma theory and recent research developments in healing and mental disorder diagnosis.

Ella är med klassen på ett terrarium och får en traumatisk närkontakt med en stor spindel. När hon berättar det för pappa tycker han att hon allt är lite fånig. Ella blir sur och ledsen och när hon går över innergården ser hon plötsligt luckan till Tvillingvärlden öppnas igen. När Ella och Elliot upptäcker vad som har hänt ställs Ellas rädsla på sin spets. Jättespindlar håller på att breda ut sig i Tvillingvärlden. De fångar också människor och djur i sina klibbiga nät. Ella får verkligen kämpa med sin spindelskräck.

En femte bok i den populära serien om Tvillingvärlden. En färgsprakande portalfantasy med bilder på alla uppslag.

"Det här är perfekt nybörjarfantasy, där slaget om gott och ont och förtrollade världar vävs ihop med vardagliga ting som sorg, vänskap och mod."

Arising from the fourth Dagstuhl conference entitled Visualization and Processing of Tensors and Higher Order Descriptors for Multi-Valued Data (2011), this book offers a broad and vivid view of current work in this emerging field. Topics covered range from applications of the analysis of tensor fields to research on their mathematical and analytical properties.

Part I, Tensor Data Visualization, surveys techniques for visualization of tensors and tensor fields in engineering, discusses the current state of the art and challenges, and examines tensor invariants and glyph design, including an overview of common glyphs.

The second Part, Representation and Processing of Higher-order Descriptors, describes a matrix representation of local phase, outlines mathematical morphological operations techniques, extended for use in vector images, and generalizes erosion to the space of diffusion weighted MRI.

Part III, Higher Order Tensors and Riemannian-Finsler Geometry, offers powerful mathematical language to model and analyze large and complex diffusion data such as High Angular Resolution Diffusion Imaging (HARDI) and Diffusion Kurtosis Imaging (DKI).

A Part entitled Tensor Signal Processing presents new methods for processing tensor-valued data, including a novel perspective on performing voxel-wise morphometry of diffusion tensor data using kernel-based approach, explores the free-water diffusion model, and reviews proposed approaches for computing fabric tensors, emphasizing trabecular bone research.

The last Part, Applications of Tensor Processing, discusses metric and curvature tensors, two of the most studied tensors in geometry processing. Also covered is a technique for diagnostic prediction of first-episode schizophrenia patients based on brain diffusion MRI data. The last chapter presents an interactive system integrating the visual analysis of diffusion MRI tractography with data from electroencephalography.
