A truly eclectic, psychological horror story collection, in which the true monsters are those that skulk about the darkest wrinkles and fissures of the human brain...Decades ago, the sciences of the brain were in their infancy. One such science was phrenology. Listening to triggers neural responses in the brain that mimic the stimuli of actual activities. Will you subject yourself to the cerebral storm? You’ll find no ghosts here. Only the tangling cobwebs and mildewed, dusty chambers of the one place mankind may never truly understand. Our own minds.

At trappe ud af psykofarmaka – eller psykiatrisk medicin – er ofte en sværere og mere krævende proces, end man forventer. Det gælder fx antidepressiv medicin, benzodiazepiner, antipsykotika og stemningsstabiliserende midler. Bogen er vigtig læsning for alle, der skal igennem et udtrapningsforløb, og for professionelle, der arbejder med mennesker, der er i udtrapning. Men dens nyskabende tilgang til psykofarmaka og psykisk lidelse gør også, at bogen kan læses bredere af enhver med interesse for psykisk lidelse, psykiatri og medicinfri behandling. Anders Sørensen, psykolog, ph.d.

I denne bog begiver antropologen Dennis Nørmark og filosoffen Anders Fogh Jensen sig ud på en rejse for at finde ud af, hvad vi laver i vores arbejdstid.
