At the beginning of the chapter, a woman who suffers from schizophrenia described her story in her own words. What analogy did she use to describe how this disorder affects her life?
 
  a) She says she lives in an invisible closet where the walls are imprisoning and the darkness is terrifying.
   b) She feels as if there is a dark cloud following her everywhere, and like
   rain clouds she never knows when it will rain on her.
   c) Every day she struggles to live her life as normally as she can but she feels like a car with a failing battery, never knowing when she can't get started.
   d) The overwhelming feeling of dread she feels is similar to riding a roller
   coaster every day; she never knows whether she is in for a slow ride up
   or a wild ride down.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
