Sinopse

Head Impact explores the serious consequences of repeated head trauma, extending beyond professional athletes to anyone in contact sports. It reveals how even seemingly minor blows can contribute to long-term neurological damage.

 
The book highlights the link between these impacts and conditions like chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), Parkinson's disease, and dementia, emphasizing that cumulative subconcussive impacts, not just concussions, pose a significant threat.

 
The book starts with the basic science of head trauma, then analyzes specific neurological disorders linked to repeated impacts, and presents preventive measures, including helmet technology and rule changes in sports. It draws from clinical studies, neuropathological analyses, and biomechanical modeling to provide a comprehensive view.

 
One intriguing fact is that the cumulative effect of numerous small head impacts may be more damaging than single, severe concussions.

 
This book uniquely integrates medical science with practical applications, written in an accessible style for a broad audience, including athletes, coaches, and healthcare professionals. It shifts the narrative to prioritize cumulative impact prevention, providing valuable insights for making informed decisions about participation in contact sports and protecting brain health.

    In Their Names - The Untold...

    When twenty-six-year-old recent college graduate Aswad Thomas was days away from starting a professional basketball career in 2009, he was shot twice while buying juice at a convenience store. The trauma left him in excruciating pain, with mounting medical debt, and struggling to cope with deep anxiety and fear. That was the same year the national incarceration rate peaked. Yet, despite thousands of new tough-on-crime policies and billions of new dollars pumped into "justice," Aswad never received victim compensation, support, or even basic levels of concern. In the name of victims, justice bureaucracies ballooned while most victims remained on their own. 
     
     
     
    In In Their Names, Lenore Anderson offers a close look at how the political call to help victims in the 1980s morphed into a demand for bigger bureaucracies and more incarceration, and cemented the long-standing chasm that exists between most victims and the justice system. She argues that the powerful myth that mass incarceration benefits victims obscures recognition of what most victims actually need, including addressing their trauma, which is a leading cause of subsequent violent crime. 
     
     
     
    A solutions-oriented, paradigm-shifting book, In Their Names argues persuasively for closing the gap between our public safety systems and crime survivors.

The characters include Anna, an orphan in Constantinople; Omeir, a village boy conscripted into an invading army; Zeno, a Korean war veteran and translator; Seymour, a troubled teenager; and Konstance, a girl on an interstellar ship. Their lives become interwoven through the discovery, translation, and interpretation of the fictional Cloud Cuckoo Land. The book also explores how stories and libraries act as sanctuaries and preserves of knowledge. The main theme of the story revolves around the search for meaning and the universal human need for belonging and a place to call home.

    Once, humans were what they believed. Now, the modern person is determined by data exhaust—an invisible anthropocentric ether of ones and zeros that is a product of our digitally monitored age. Author Mark Jarzombek argues that the world has become redesigned to fuse the algorithmic with the ontological, and the discussion of ontology must be updated to rethink the question of Being. In Digital Stockholm Syndrome in the Post-Ontological Age, Jarzombek provocatively studies the new interrelationship between human and algorithm. 
    Forerunners is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital works. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship.
