Fingernail Biting by N.H. Hadley Pdf

Everyone exhibits styles of movement and speech, traits and habits which are characteristic of them as people but do not contribute dir ectly to their purposeful activity at anyone time. Many of these will be expressions of personality of which the individual may be unaware or even cherish and which evoke a favorable or neutral response from others. Conversely, displays such as gross involuntary tics or compul sive rituals are a burden to the sufferer and are socially embarrassing or obnoxious. These may be manifestations of a more fundamental neurotic disorder or the product of deep-seated maladaptive learning. Nail-biting occupies a central position along such a spectrum. Al though it may serve as a tension-reducing or other functional device, few nail-biters would not wish to be rid of the habit but find it as difficult to eliminate as, say, an addiction to smoking. Even so, it cannot be considered abnormal in a psychiatric sense in that many nail-biters exhibit none of the traits and symptoms characteristic of mental disorder.

Dan Nails It! the End of Nail Biting by Vered Kaminsky Pdf

"Dan had been biting his nails for as long as he could remember. It began at night time with his mother saying goodnight to him and turning off the light; he felt alone in his big, darkroom.As he grew older and he felt a little nervous or agitated, like at the beginning of the school year, his nails would always make their way into his mouth. In the beginning, Dan's thumbnail was his favorite to chew. However, once he was finished chewing that nail and there was nothing left of it, he would move onto the rest of his fingernails. Slowly but surely, he would bite another fingernail, or even two. By the time he was 10-years old, every single fingernail of his had been completely bitten off. One day Dan realized that his habit was a vicious circle that he was not able to break. He did not want to bite his nails, yet it provided him with comfort and soothed him. Feeling disappointed and discouraged with himself, he turned to his mother for help....""...Dan's mother knew that the first step to helping Dan break his habit was for him to really want it himself. "First, in order for you to stop biting your fingernails, you have to really, really want to break the habit, and then we can start to build a plan. When you really, truly want to, let me know!" she told Dan, walking away. Dan said, "I have made up my mind. I want to get rid of this bad habit of mine. I want to. I really want to!" And so together, Dan and his mother decided on a special plan to help Dan break his nail-biting habit. Dan's mother suggested, "We will divide the next two weeks into a plan of action, just as if you were training for a running competition. The first step is for you to define what your goal is and write it down.""Ok, well my goal is simple. I want to stop biting my fingernails," Dan explained to his mother, and she grinned. Seeing her grin, Dan added, "Ok, well maybe it's not so simple, but I can do it... but I can do it."The story leads the readers to Dan's world, where he is dealing with a nail-biting habit. The story gives the children and the parents an operative way to get rid of the nail-biting habit.

This new edition brings together five leading authorities in nail surgery in this well established and definitive textbook. The entire text is extended in this edition, and particular emphasis is placed on the advances in treatments that have taken place in recent years. Considerable strides have been made in the treatment of fungal diseases (onychomycoses) with the appearance of new therapeutic agents. There is also much greater coverage of nail surgery to reflect the increasing involvement of the dermatologist in this field. The section on nail tumours has also been expanded. Drs Baran and Dawber have been joined by David de Berker, Eckhart Haneke and Antonella Tosti on the editorial team. This move is representative of the major European contribution to the field of nail surgery in recent years. Significant contribution has come from Dr Elvin Zook, the eminent American hand surgeon, who has helped to ensure that the book is as relevant in North America as it is in Europe.

Noblebranch by Caylee Dean Pdf

Catherine No-Surname lost everything in 1899: her surname, her home, her best friend, and her father--the last of which, murdered. And on the small island of Ablington, hidden deep in the Bermuda Triangle, royal oligarchs refuse to investigate any of Catherine's losses, even the bloodiest kinds. Two years later, come of age, Catherine assembles a plot. It's christened "The Pearl Plot," and it includes five other members. Each Pearl Plot member has their own goal and reason for joining. Some want to live up to their family legacy. Some want to defend those they love. Some join the Pearl Plot for the sake of having an adventure. Others do it to escape fate... The Pearl Plot's goal is to solve Ablington murders, as well as more pressing mysteries. But there's always a catch: the Pearl Plot must be solved within a year and a half. If left unresolved, its members flee to opposite ends of the earth, never to speak of one another or their past lives again. Because if the Pearl Plot members can't find the murderers in a year and a half, they know they'll be murdered themselves. Despite her father's death, the most serious of Catherine's losses has to be a corpse--a corpse buried on her old property, untouched and unidentified. But the day she picked up a shovel and prepared to dig her first clue, she only found yet another mystery: the mystery of the empty grave.
