Marcel van Roosmalen over zijn dementerende moeder in het verpleegtehuis ten tijde van de coronapandemie - ontroerend eerlijk, droogkomisch en actueel. Wanneer de moeder van Marcel van Roosmalen na een val niet terug kan keren naar het ouderlijk huis, en onderdak vindt in een verpleegtehuis in Velp, lijkt een rustige periode voor haar en haar kinderen aan te breken. Totdat in maart 2020 de coronapandemie om zich heen grijpt. Het verpleegtehuis wordt ontruimd vanwege de vele positief geteste bewoners en moeder Van Roosmalen wordt getransporteerd naar de bossen bij Groesbeek.

El trabajo de la doctora Kübler-Ross nos confirma que la muerte es un pasaje hacia otra forma de vida y nos hace comprender que la experiencia de la muerte es casi idéntica a la del nacimiento, puesto que se trata del inicio de otra existencia, el paso a un nuevo estado de conciencia en el que se continúa experimentando, viendo y oyendo, comprendiendo y riendo, y en el que se tiene la posibilidad de perseverar en el crecimiento espiritual.

Herrschaft der Kindsköpfe – über das Unbehagen in Kultur und Politik. Gefühl ist Trumpf, Argumente stören, und Diskretion war gestern. Wir haben uns in eine Gesellschaft der Kindsköpfe verwandelt, das infantile Prinzip herrscht: Zu diesem Ergebnis kommt der bekannte Publizist Alexander Kissler in seinem neuen Buch.

Sie spielen Meerjungfrau, Teddybär und Peter Pan und finden nichts dabei.

Questo saggio vuole fornire alcune indicazioni su come affrontare i problemi della vecchiaia con serenità e sicurezza. L'autrice non parte da considerazioni etiche, sociologiche o psicologiche, bensì scientifiche, con le quali dimostra che il cervello umano invecchiando perde alcune prerogative, ma le sostituisce con altre che in parte compensano e superano quelle perdute. L'autrice accompagna la sua dimostrazione con una serie di esempi di personalità attive fino alla vecchiaia, come Michelangelo, Galileo Galilei, Bertrand Russell e Pablo Picasso.
