December 2018The Complete Collection of Modern Chinese Prints by Lu Xun
by Editorial Board of the Complete Works of Modern Chinese Prints Collected by Lu Xun
This series contains about 1,800 modern prints collected by Lu Xun at that time, which authored by nearly 200 domestic printmakers and currently in the Lu Xun Memorial Hall in Shanghai and the Lu Xun Museum in Beijing. It is showcasing the glorious history of modern Chinese woodcut art: In the 1920s and 1930s, in order to guide the artistic direction of Chinese literary youth, smashed the KMT’s counter-revolutionary cultural " encirclement and suppression", Mr. Lu Xun held a "woodcut workshop" in Shanghai, and cultivated a group of emerging woodcut backbone. These backbones led young artists in various regions of the country to create a large number of realistic works reflecting the suffering and tragic fate of the people at the bottom of the society at that time. They cruelly lashed the dark reality of society and called for national salvation and survival. These young woodcutters sent their woodcut works to Lu Xun, who not only guided their creation personally, but also spared no effort to collect, publicize and promote them to the public. With the active advocacy and support of Mr. Lu Xun, the emerging woodcut movement in China has developed vigorously, driving the modernization of Chinese art and leaving an indelible glorious footprint in the history of Chinese modern culture and art. This complete collection is a companion to the The Complete Collection of Foreign Prints by Lu Xun published in 2014.

January 2020Cutting and Self-Harm, Second Edition
by M. Foster Olive, Ph.D.
Intentional self-harm, often in the form of cutting one's self, is generally associated with emotional or mental distress, especially when observed among teens. When in pain, the human body releases calming endorphins, leading some to injure themselves to experience the endorphin euphoria. Self-harm is associated with mental health disorders such as borderline personality disorder, anorexia nervosa, and bulimia nervosa. And while those who engage in self-harm may not intend themselves any serious physical injury, such risky behavior can result in death. Cutting and Self-Harm discusses the most common types of self-injurious behavior, what they mean, how they can be treated, and how they can be prevented.Chapters include: What Is Self-Harm? Who Engages In Self-Harm? Self-Harm and Mental Illness Diagnosis and Treatment of Self-Harm Prevention of Self-Harm

2021Self-medication in Pregnancy and Breast-feeding
Counselling handbook
by Dr. Annette Abhau
Cough, hay fever or herpes are at least as troublesome during pregnancy and breast-feeding as under normal “conditions” - and yet everything is different. Physiological changes to the body in pregnancy and lactation, together with the vulnerability of the unborn baby or infant, set particular requirements when selecting the correct, safe medication. Especially in the area of self-medication, the needs of pregnant and breast-feeding women for information are great and call for competent advice! This comprehensive handbook is the key: General information about pharmacotherapy, supplementary measures, vaccinations, questions about diet and infections in pregnancy and lactation creates a broad knowledge base. The core feature of the book are the traffic light tables, with precise recommendations for medicinal products for all types of treatment. All the important indications for selfmedication in pregnancy and lactation are listed and the tables are supported by detailed explanations of the individual assessments. The sections “Advice from medical specialists” are particularly useful, with additional tips from gynaecologists and “Footnotes” with relevant information on the use of prescription- only medicines – and as the ultimate practical tool: the enclosed sales counter leaflets with all traffic light tables to enable quick reference for first-class advice!

SELF REMEMBERING
The Path to Non-Judgmental Love
by Red Hawk
Self Remembering: The Path to Non-Judgmental Love is a companion piece to the author’s previous book Self Observation: The Awakening of Conscience, also from Hohm Press, which is fast becoming a classic. Taken together, they present the most detailed examination of the practice available in English. Red Hawk clearly points out that self remembering is only one half of a foundational spiritual practice called “self observation/self remembering.” Where other authors/teachers have gone wrong in the past is to take only one half of this practice and consider it the whole, entire unto itself. There has not been a book-length study on self remembering that examines the practice from the many angles that Red Hawk’s does. His chapters cover such diverse yet integrated topics as: the Removal of Self Importance; Kaya Sadhana or the wisdom of the body; and Separation Grief, i.e., addressing the terror of our current situation without denial or dramatics.

Krav Maga : Les bases du Self-défense
by Imi Sdé-Or (Lichtenfeld) et Eyal Yanilov
Krav Maga : Les bases du Self-défense par le Grand-Maître Imi Sdé-Or (Lichtenfeld) et le Chef Instructeur Eyal Yanilov Voici deux volumes dans cette série de best-sellers Krav Maga, fondée sur le système renommé de combat à mains nues israélien : ces volumes se concentrent sur la façon de se défendre contre un assaillant non-armé, par exemple contre toutes sortes de coups de poing, coups de pied, saisies, maintiens, etc. Le Krav Maga, développé par le Grand-Maître Imi Sdé-Or (Lichtenfeld) depuis les années 1930, était autrefois une méthode de combat à mains nues strictement réservée aux agents de sécurité et aux membres du MOSSAD ou des unités d’élite de l’armée israélienne. La méthode a été adaptée pour les civils, de sorte que quiconque, quelque soit son âge ou son sexe, ou même sa capacité physique, peut l'utiliser efficacement. Sur la base des réactions naturelles du corps humain, la discipline est facile à apprendre et à exécuter, et pratique à utiliser. Le Krav Maga est rapidement devenu populaire et a obtenu la reconnaissance des experts du monde entier. Aux Etats-Unis, en Amérique du Sud, en Europe, en Australie et en Extrême-Orient, cette méthode unique d’autodéfense est déjà enseignée et utilisée par les forces de l’ordre, et aussi par de nombreux citoyens ordinaires. Ecrit par Imi Sdé-Or et son disciple distingué Eyal Yanilov dans le cadre de la Série du Fondateur, Krav Maga : Les bases du Self-défense présente, en deux volumes, les grands principes et les méthodes d'entraînement au combat non-armé. Conçu dans un format accessible, étape par étape, le livre traite des principes de base, de la sécurité à l'entraînement, de l'échauffement, de l’assouplissement et la flexibilité jusqu’aux principes d'attaques, de posture et de positions de départ. Les auteurs proposent des stratégies pour chaque scénario imaginable : la défense à coups de poing et à coups de pied, comment se libérer d’un étranglement, d’une prise de tête et d’une prise nelson, de saisies, de coups de poing, de projections, et plus encore. Cet ouvrage, soulignant également les fondements psychologiques de la discipline, complète son utilité en consacrant des sections à l'entraînement mental, aux points vulnérables, aux cas de multiples agresseurs et les problèmes d'auto-défense particuliers aux femmes. A propos des auteurs Eyal Yanilov a commence à s’entraîner en Krav Maga avec le Grand-Maître Imi Sdé-Or quand il avait 15 ans. Yanilov fur la première personne qui ait commencé à former des instructeurs de Krav Maga hors d’Israël, et il a entraîné des unités spéciales, des militaires et des civils dans plus de 18 pays. Le Grand-Maître Imi Sdé-Or, qui a inventé le Krav Maga, est décédé à 88 ans en 1998. Une édition en anglais pour l’Amérique du Nord devrait paraître en 2011. Chaque volume comprend 240 pages, avec plus de 800 photos et illustrations en noir et blanc ; 16.5 x 24
