“ Street Without A Name” is a wry, vivid & honest recollection of, & reflection on, modern Bulgaria from poet & travel writer Kapka Kassabova. An irreverent & revealing personal portrait of a little-known country perched on the eastern edge of Europe
- captured by one of its most eloquent & engaging expats. After years on the outside, Bulgaria has finally made it into the EU club, but beyond the clichés about undrinkable plonk, cheap property, & assassins with poison-tipped umbrellas, the country remains a largely unknown quantity. Born on the muddy outskirts of Sofia, Kapka Kassabova grew up under Communism in the 1980s, got out just as soon as she could, & has loved & hated her homeland in equal measure ever since. In this darkly comic & unflinchingly honest memoir, Kapka revisits Bulgaria & her own muddled relationship to it, travelling back to the scenes of her childhood, sampling its bizarre tourist sites, uncovering its centuries’ old history of bloodshed & blurred borders, & trying to understand the absurdities & idiosyncrasies of her own & her country’s past.

With a history going back 2000 years it is hardly surprising that so many of London`s streets are known throughout the globe. Even today, several Roman roads pass through the capital & London`s financial centre, The City of London is full of winding alleys & ancient ways with names from times gone by. Over the years the City`s streets have become less familiar than roads in & around the West End & for this reason The Streets of London: The story behind London`s most famous streets is primarily about roads in the City of Westminster & the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea. ...

200 countries; one street each; seven years of travelling & collecting photos, stories, facts & figures about each country. This is not just another photography book. It reveals everything that a street means to society: education, wisdom, youth, experience, happiness, stories, food, & so much more. This is the raw material of life, drawn directly from the experiences of the Belgian photographer Jeroen Swolfs. Seeing the street as a unifying theme, he travelled in search of that one street in each place
- sometimes by a harbour or a railway station
- that comprised the country as a whole. Each stunning image conveys culture, colours, rituals, even the history of the city & country where he found them. Swolfs sees the street as a universal meeting place, a platform of crowds, a centre of news & gossip, a place of work, & a playground for children. Swolfs`s streets are a matrix for community; his photographs are published at a time when the unique insularity of local communities everywhere has never been more under threat.

Can traumatic life events cause depression? Studies generally point to a connection between adverse life events & depression. However, establishing a causal rather than associative connection, the key concern of this 2004 book, is more problematic.

The authors structure their examination around three major themes: the pathophysiological role of stress in depression; whether or not a subtype of depression exists that is particularly stress-inducible; &, finally, how best to diagnose & treat depression in relation to its biological underpinnings. ...
