Damiana
Native to South America and the southern regions of North America, damiana
is a small shrub with toothed, pale green leaves and reddish stems. It has
been used since ancient times for its purported aphrodisiac qualities by
the native peoples of Mexico. Damiana has also been used as a stimulant
for the nervous system, an energy tonic, and as a natural remedy to
address anxiety-related disorders. In vitro studies, as well as those
performed on mice, suggest a potentially positive benefit for use in
disorders of the urinary tract. Human clinical trials have yet to confirm
its efficacy in the area of sexual virility - that for which it is
renowned.

Mad,Bad and Dangerous: The Scientist and the Cinema, Vol. 1
Publisher's Notes Mad, Bad and Dangerous explores the portrayal of the scientist in the movies from the crazy and scheming weirdo to the hero. In different periods the scientist has been used to evoke the fears and phobias of the time, including the 1950s movies of atomic scientists creating radioactive zombies, and the 1970s preoccupation with scientists as "baddies." Fictional portrayals are examined by Frayling alongside bio-pics of real-life scientists, revealing the madman and the saint as two sides of the same Hollywood coin.
Christopher Frayling is Rector of the Royal College of Art, London, and well known as an historian, critic, and award-winning radio and tele-vision broadcaster. His books in-clude Spaghetti Westerns and Vampyres: Lord Byron to Count Dracula.
