Mad, Bad, and Sad: A History of Women and the Mind DoctorsThis fascinating history of mind doctors and their patients probes the ways in which madness, badness, and sadness have been understood over the last two centuries. Lisa Appignanesi charts a story from the days when the mad were considered possessed to our own century when the official psychiatric manual lists some 350 mental disorders.

This fascinating history of mind doctors and their patients probes the ways in which madness, badness, and sadness have been understood over the last two centuries. Lisa Appignanesi charts a story from the days when the mad were considered possessed to our own century when the official psychiatric manual lists some 350 mental disorders. Women play a key role here, both as patients--among them Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath, and Marilyn Monroe--and as therapists. Controversially, Appignanesi argues that women have significantly changed the nature of mind-doctoring, but in the process they have also inadvertently highlighted new patterns of illness.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect Weight

Is a perfect liner. It’s not super thick or heavy. Easy to hang.

Good shower liner
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
Actually works! No soap scum or mildew. I have had this shower curtain up since December and all I do is rinse it off. No soap scum. Good item. Good value.

Too lightweight and flimsy, but it does the job
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
This shower liner works as expected, but it is a bit lightweight, and will drift around in the shower.
I will look at getting a more heavy duty one in the future. This one has the 3 magnets, and that isn't enough.
I would recommend getting one with double the magnets and a thicker plastic. I went cheap and regret it slightly, but at least these things are made to be disposable.
Other than that, the durability seems good, and it looks and feels like you would expect, but as stated, the plastic is flimsy and flutters around. Seems fairly mold resistant vs other liners I've used from the store (like cheaper Walmart ones etc).

Keeps clothes on!
Color: Black, Size: Pack of 30
These hangers are fantastic! They save so much closet space, keep clothes from slipping, and feel sturdy and durable. Great quality for the price and make the closet look neat and organized!

Had to order more!
Color: Ivory/Rose Gold, Size: Pack of 50, Color: Ivory/Rose Gold, Size: Pack of 50
Such great hangers that save space and provide true non-slipping of clothing. They came in handy as I got rid of ye old plastic hangers. My closet looks so much more organized and a little bit more spacious. They are lightweight and hold up very well. I did notice some hangers had "peeling" to them but I honestly didn't care since they are doing the work they are intended for.
These are pretty versatile as I even have winter jackes hanging from them. The price is aslo very good in my opinion and on par with one of the big box companies my mom got hers from, but I like the fact that these come in various colors and finishes. The quantity options are also a blessing as I needed more than I initially opted for. Needless to say I liked them so much I had to order more. I also loved how well and neatly packed they came. 10/10 recommend!
