Bøger af Uwe Blesching

Uwe Blesching has distilled the spectacular art in his film "Cuba on Fire" in a book to grace any coffee table: "Cuba's Carnival - Origins of the Biggest party On Earth." The book explores the why in what compels millions of people from all around the world to party in the streets, today and all throughout recorded history. With Cuba as a visual guide, Blesching explores a hitherto unknown pattern common to all the carnivals of the world. As the story unfolds the vibrant photographs, image compilations and text invite the reader to explore ancient legend, long forgotten beginnings, and discoveries of mankind's origins. Insights gleaned from the carnival archetype unveil fascinating possibilities of human powers, talents and potentials yet to be fully realized. Here the secrets of carnival bring a potentially private exploration of the richness of the human psyche.

An evidence-based guide to using cannabis to enhance pain relief safely, effectively, and economically while reducing the risks of opioid addictionOpioid addiction has exploded to epidemic proportions in the U.S. Drug overdose is now the leading cause of accidental death. In 2012, 259 million prescriptions were written for opioids—more than enough to give every American adult their own bottle of pills. Uwe Blesching, author of The Cannabis Health Index, clearly and thoroughly lays out the overwhelming benefits of using cannabis—not only to reduce the nation’s dependence on opioids—but also to manage the craving and withdrawal symptoms of opioid addiction, and especially to address the pain that leads to drug use and addiction in the first place. Citing statistics showing that states allowing legal access to cannabis have seen a 25 percent drop in opioid-related deaths, Blesching explains how precision applications of cannabis can alleviate the mental and emotional aspects of pain by modulating numerous neurotransmitters and their emotional counterparts. He presents a convincing case for the powerful benefits of cannabis in reducing the risks of addiction and overdose, cutting monetary costs, and restoring a sense of balance and control to those who struggle with pain.
