Sinopsis

A “fascinating overview” of neurofeedback and its potential benefits for treating depression, autism, epilepsy, and other conditions (Discover).   Since A Symphony in the Brain was first published, the scientific understanding of our bodies, brains, and minds has taken remarkable leaps. From neurofeedback with functional magnetic resonance imaging equipment, to the use of radio waves, to biofeedback of the heart and breath and coverage of biofeedback by health insurance plans, this expanded and updated edition of the groundbreaking book traces the fascinating untold story of the development of biofeedback.   Discovered by a small corps of research scientists, this alternative treatment allows a patient to see real-time measurements of their bodily processes. Its advocates claim biofeedback can treat epilepsy, autism, attention deficit disorder, addictions, and depression with no drugs or side effects; bring patients out of vegetative states; and even improve golf scores or an opera singer’s voice. But biofeedback has faced battles for acceptance in the conservative medical world despite positive signs that it could revolutionize the way a diverse range of medical and psychological problems are treated. Offering case studies, accessible scientific explanations, and dramatic personal accounts, this book explores the possibilities for the future of our health.   “Robbins details the fascinating medical history of the therapy, tracing it back to French physician Paul Broca’s discovery of the region in the brain where speech originates. At the heart of this riveting story are the people whose lives have been transformed by neurofeedback, from the doctors and psychologists who employ it to the patients who have undergone treatment.” —Publishers Weekly

    "One day, we awaken and feel the discomfort in our comfort. We pull back the curtain and wonder if we caught a glimpse of bars across the window and we rise again." 
    In that moment, we decided to "Lead through Life". No longer will we aimlessly follow. No longer will we blindly accept the stories we are fed. We will strike our own path. 
    But what does that path look like? 
    In his conformity-breaking new book, Stew Darling provides a simple Framework empowering every reader to create their own path to leadership. 
    We all hold positions of leadership: mum, dad, partner, brother, sister, friend, colleague. But the word 'leader' has become tainted by some in power. As Stew explains, true leadership is based not in power, but in service. 
    When we harness that definition of leadership, the 'call to arms' of "Lead through Life" becomes a thrilling and life-changing endeavour. 
    Written with humour and vulnerability, "Lead through Life" takes you on Stew's journey from a traumatic childhood event, to the battlefields of the Middle East and on to entrepreneurship. These were the foundations upon which he came to create, and live by, the "Lead through Life" Framework. With twelve simple words, this Framework simplifies leadership and makes it accessible to all. 
    The "Lead through Life" Framework has already changed the lives of many. This book will enable every reader to join the growing number who have decided to take up their own challenge and "Lead through Life". 
    "Leadership is nothing more than an extension of the practices of being a good citizen."

    The Institutes of Justinian is a component of the Corpus Juris Civilis, the sixth-century codification of Roman law ordered by the Byzantine emperor Justinian I. It is largely based upon the Institutes of Gaius, a Roman jurist of the second century A.D. The other parts of the Corpus Juris Civilis are the Digest, the Codex Justinianus, and the Novellae Constitutiones ("New Constitutions" or "Novels"). Justinian's Institutes was one part of his effort to codify Roman law and to reform legal education, of which the Digest also was a part. Whereas the Digest was to be used by advanced law students, Justinian's Institutes was to be a textbook for new students. The Institutes of Justinian is arranged much like Gaius's work, being divided into three books covering "persons," "things,", and "actions." Unlike the Digest, the extracts do not provide inscriptions indicating from whom the original material was taken.
