There are many guides available that focus on dealing with stress, but virtually all the advice concentrates on responding to the results and symptoms of stress, rather than its causes. No wonder everyone continues to suffer from the devastating consequences of being stressed out. Author Manuel Antonio Lopez, a professional mechanical engineer, seeks to fill this void in knowledge by sharing stress alleviators that he has discovered over a lifetime. In this practical guidebook to understanding the causes of stress-related hair loss and illness, you can discover how to reverse harmful effects. Lopez looks back on his own battles with stress and how he went form being hyperactive and stressed out to relaxed and carefree. As a result of dealing with his stress, he went from being balding and overweight to being trim and sporting a head of thick, lustrous hair. Get a better night's sleep, prevent depression, keep your hair, and, most importantly, boost your chances of living a long and healthy life with A Guide to Winning Mind Games.
This monograph discusses the role of political parties in Paraguay’s legislature. Using Paraguay as a case study, the author analyzes the phenomenon of legislative chaos. While chaos has been expected to exist in legislatures since at least 1785 (Arrow 1951; Condorcet 1785), this phenomenon has not been observable in real-world legislatures for much of history (Tullock 1967; Tullock and Brennan 1981). By showing that chaos exists in Paraguay, and by then proposing a way to incorporate chaos into existing legislative theories, this volume creates a model that is more generalizable to different legislative contexts than what currently exists. Providing a robust theoretical contribution to the study of both legislative politics and Paraguay’s political system, this book will appeal to researchers and students studying legislative behavior and Latin American politics.
