Synopsis

In his groundbreaking book "NAP for Success," author Kevin B DiBacco reveals the hidden key to elevating performance and productivity - the strategic power nap. Drawing on scientific research, DiBacco illuminates how brief naps can boost brain function, enhance memory and learning, spur creativity, improve mood, reduce stress and boost immunity.

Napping is an ancient habit that predates modern society by thousands of years. Records show that midday rest periods were the norm across numerous ancient cultures, from Egypt to Rome. Siestas remain ingrained in European, Latin and Mediterranean lifestyles. Though America diverged from this tradition in the 20th century, the benefits of napping are once again acknowledged. Brief midday rest breaks appear innately aligned with our natural circadian rhythms. The enduring practice of napping throughout history speaks to its value in energizing the mind and body.

    Worst Cases - Terror and...

    Al Qaeda detonates a nuclear weapon in Times Square during rush hour, wiping out half of Manhattan and killing 500,000 people. A virulent strain of bird flu jumps to humans in Thailand, sweeps across Asia, and claims more than fifty million lives. A single freight car of chlorine derails on the outskirts of Los Angeles, spilling its contents and killing seven million. An asteroid ten kilometers wide slams into the Atlantic Ocean, unleashing a tsunami that renders life on the planet as we know it extinct. 
     
    We consider the few who live in fear of such scenarios to be alarmist or even paranoid. But Worst Cases shows that such individuals—like Cassandra foreseeing the fall of Troy—are more reasonable and prescient than you might think. In this book, Lee Clarke surveys the full range of possible catastrophes that animate and dominate the popular imagination, from toxic spills and terrorism to plane crashes and pandemics. Along the way, he explores how the ubiquity of worst cases in everyday life has rendered them ordinary and mundane. Fear and dread, Clarke argues, have actually become too rare: only when the public has more substantial information and more credible warnings will it take worst cases as seriously as it should. 
     
    A timely and necessary look into how we think about the unthinkable, Worst Cases will be must reading for anyone attuned to our current climate of threat and fear.

    This book takes listeners on Dr. Mark Christian’s journey as he tries to prove to himself that Islam is the true religion. It shows the horror he feels as he faces the truth, and it leads to his greatest discovery: Jesus is love, and Jesus is the God he was searching for his entire life. Having now lived and ministered in America for years, he also has a message for America about the dangers we are headed toward based on his intimate knowledge of life in a dictatorial country (Egypt) and what he sees here.

    How do people talk about words? This work explores naming constructions such as This formation is called a "coral reef" that are used to introduce lexicalized concepts like coral reef through metalinguistic reference. Drawing on the theoretical foundations in philosophy of language as well as recent work in semantics and pragmatics, experimental evidence from corpus analyses and psycholinguistic experiments-including self-paced reading and eye-tracking data-uncover the linguistic and cognitive processes behind these naming constructions. Special attention is given to the use and processing of quotational constructions during reading. Bridging (psycho)linguistics and philosophy of language, this interdisciplinary work offers new insights into how people use quotational constructions to talk about language, and how readers interpret and process naming constructions with and without quotation marks.
