ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
How to Stop Time by Matt Haig follows the life of Tom Hazard, a man born in 1581 who suffers from a rare condition that causes him to age very slowly, living through centuries while appearing to be in his forties. As he navigates life, he reflects on love, loss, and the burden of immortality. The novel explores themes of time, identity, the passage of history, and the pain of watching loved ones age and die. It delves into existential questions about living forever and finding meaning in life when time seems both a gift and a curse.

Don't Upset ooMalume - A Guide...

Hombakazi Mercy Nqandeka

'Eli linge libaluleke kakhulu kumzi ontsundu olahlekileyo. Xa sivuselela izinto zenkcubeko yethu esalahlekana nazo ngonoquku, mhla kwafika iintlanga zasemzini.' – Dr Loyiso Nqevu
Returning to the family homestead in the Eastern Cape for the holidays, and worried that your city ways and less than perfect knowledge of Xhosa culture will get you a wagging finger in the face from ooMalume – the uncles?
No need to fret. Don't Upset ooMalume! captures the essence of Xhosa heritage and culture, and explores different aspects of village life. It covers a range of topics, from major Xhosa life ceremonies and traditional clothing, to the significance of uronta (the rondavel) and ubuhlanti (the kraal). Not forgetting the importance of traditional food, the author describes popular dishes, edible forage and even medicinal plants.
This book was born from writer and agriculturalist Hombakazki Mercy Nqandeka's concern that aspects of Xhosa heritage will be lost to future generations. By interweaving her guide to Xhosa culture with stories from her daily life at Mqele and Bulungula villages, and lessons taught to her by her mother and her late grandmothers, she hopes to help reconnect Xhosa people to their roots.
Akukho nto imnandi ngathi kukungeqiwa ziindaba xa kuncokolwa ngesiXhosa esintsokothileyo nesineziqhulo. Bathi bezincokolela abantu abadala bexuba nakwintetho yokuhlonipha ube usiva yonke into abayithethayo. Oko kubonisa ukuzingca nokuzingomba isifuba ngolwimi lakho lesiXhosa.
Le ncwadi yenzelwe abantu abasithandayo isiXhosa nabafuna ukufunda nzulu ngolwimi nenkcubeko yesiXhosa. Ungabadanisi ooMalume, lola isiXhosa sakho ngale ncwadi.

Neuropsychology

Miguel Vaquero

This book contains two topics, which are the following:1 - Memory Improvement: The ability for the brain to encode, store, and recall information is known as memory. Experience serves as a roadmap for future action.Memory includes both consciously recalled facts and experienced details as well as deeply embedded knowledge that pops up without thought or even awareness. It serves as both a temporary information storage space and a more lasting record of what has been learned.2 - The study of the anatomy and operation of the nervous system and the brain is known as neuroscience. To map the brain mechanistically, neuroscientists draw on cellular and molecular biology, anatomy and physiology, human behavior and cognition, and other fields.Each neuron, or brain cell, in an adult human has an estimated 100 billion connections to other neurons. The mapping of all the cell-to-cell communication networks—the brain circuits that process all ideas, feelings, and behaviors—remains one of the major difficulties of contemporary neuroscience. The resulting image that gradually forms is referred described as "the connectome." All learning is based on the brain's capacity to build new neural circuits and connections, or neuroplasticity.
