  Genetics in the Madhouse - The...

  “Porter has unearthed a radically new history of human genetics, one that evokes not the double helix but the humble filing cabinet.” —Emily M. Kern, ScienceIn the early 1800s, a century before there was any concept of the gene, physicians in insane asylums began to record causes of madness in their admission books. Almost from the beginning, they pointed to heredity as the most important of these causes. As doctors and state officials steadily lost faith in the capacity of asylum care to stem the terrible increase of insanity, they began emphasizing the need to curb the reproduction of the insane. They became obsessed with identifying weak or tainted families and anticipating the outcomes of their marriages. Genetics in the Madhouse is the untold story of how the collection and sorting of hereditary data in mental hospitals, schools for “feebleminded” children, and prisons gave rise to a new science of human heredity.In this compelling book, Theodore Porter draws on untapped archival evidence from across Europe and North America to bring to light the hidden history behind modern genetics. He looks at the institutional use of pedigree charts, censuses of mental illness, medical-social surveys, and other data techniques—innovative quantitative practices that were worked out in the madhouse long before the manipulation of DNA became possible in the lab. Porter argues that asylum doctors developed many of the ideologies and methods of what would come to be known as eugenics, and deepens our appreciation of the moral issues at stake in data work conducted on the border of subjectivity and science.

  Do you spend most of your nights staring at the ceiling and wake up with no energy? If yes, this is the right audio-book for you. 
  Hypnosis is a technique that can be used to promote better sleep by inducing a state of deep relaxation and heightened suggestibility. 
  Here’s how it works:relaxation: the process typically begins with the individual being guided into a relaxed state, often through deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation. This helps reduce stress and tension;focused attention: once relaxed, the hypnotist or the individual focuses on calming imagery or soothing words. This concentration helps to quiet the mind and block out distractions;positive suggestions: in this relaxed state, positive suggestions related to sleep are introduced. These might include affirmations like "I am relaxed and ready for sleep" or visualizations of a peaceful sleeping environment;reinforcement: the suggestions can be repeated or reinforced during the session, helping to create a mental association between the relaxed state and the ability to fall asleep easily;awakening: after the session, the individual is gently brought back to full awareness, often feeling refreshed and more open to the suggestions made during hypnosis. 
  By incorporating these techniques, hypnosis can help alleviate insomnia, reduce anxiety, and promote a more restful sleep. 
  This book deals with:The Importance of SleepingInsomnia and its TreatmentBenefits of Hypnosis 
  ...And much more! 
  If you want to change your life, you need to focus on thoughts and strengthen your mind.  
  Hypnosis, dreams, subconscious, and the right tools give power to the brain!

  Ring of Fire - High-Stakes...

  A valuable discovery under the world's second-largest temperate wetland and in the traditional lands of the Cree and Ojibway casts light on the growing conflict among resource development, environmental stewardship, and Indigenous rights 
   
   
   
  When prospectors discovered a gigantic crescent of metal deposits under the James Bay Lowlands of northern Canada in 2007, the find touched off a mining rush, lured a major American company to spend fortunes in the remote swamp, and forced politicians to confront their legal duty to consult Indigenous Peoples about development on their traditional territories. But the multibillion-dollar Ring of Fire was all but abandoned when stakeholders failed to reach a consensus on how to develop the cache despite years of negotiations and hundreds of millions of dollars in spending. Now plans for an all-weather road to connect the region to the highway network are reigniting the fireworks. 
   
   
   
  In this colorful tale, Virginia Heffernan draws on her bush and newsroom experiences to illustrate the complexities of resource development at a time when Indigenous rights are becoming enshrined globally. The Ring of Fire presents an opportunity for Canada to leave behind centuries of plunder and set the global standard for responsible development of minerals critical to the green energy revolution.
