Summary

Cognitive Techniques for Learning explores how targeted cognitive training can significantly enhance learning abilities, especially for individuals with cognitive disabilities. Challenging the assumption that cognitive limitations are fixed, the book demonstrates how techniques rooted in cognitive psychology can improve memory enhancement, attention regulation, and problem-solving strategies, which are all essential for effective and inclusive learning experiences. Did you know that structured cognitive training, when tailored to individual needs, can lead to measurable improvements in cognitive abilities? Or that personalized cognitive training allows for the tailoring of training programs to meet specific needs?

The book begins with foundational knowledge of cognitive disabilities and relevant cognitive psychology theories. Progressing through chapters dedicated to attention, memory, and executive functions, it examines specific training techniques, like mnemonic strategies and errorless learning. It culminates in integrative approaches for comprehensive learning programs and guidance for educators, therapists, and caregivers.

This book uniquely emphasizes personalized cognitive training and a data-driven approach to identifying individual cognitive strengths and weaknesses. Drawing upon extensive research and case studies, the book provides a rigorous, evidence-based foundation for its recommendations. The material connects to education, rehabilitation science, and neuroscience, providing insights into inclusive teaching practices and how the brain adapts to targeted interventions.

By focusing on practical, evidence-based strategies, Cognitive Techniques for Learning aims to empower educators and caregivers with tools to improve learning outcomes.

The Invisible Machine - The...

MD Eugene Lipov, Jamie Mustard,...

Despite its prevalence, post-traumatic stress, PTSD, is often seen as an unbeatable lifelong mental disorder. Leading trauma doctors and neuroscientists now understand that the result of trauma is not a disorder, but rather a physical injury to the body—invisible but tangible, and most importantly, treatable. 
 
 
 
Meet Dr. Eugene Lipov. His research and partnerships have led to an amazing discovery that all trauma has at its root a single piece of human hardware: the stellate ganglion. The symptoms of post-traumatic stress are the same for all of us, whether from childhood poverty or abandonment, the ravages of war, or the brutality of sexual assault. Dr. Lipov's pioneering procedure appears to treat injury to the stellate ganglion, relieving even the worst symptoms of PTSD—irritability, hypervigilance, insomnia, and more—in a fifteen-minute treatment. 
 
  
 
Weaving hard science with moving human stories, The Invisible Machine reveals how this treatment was developed. It also tells the incredible story of the unlikely team, including the doctor, an artist, Special Forces leadership, and a sheriff, who are working together to change our understanding of post-traumatic stress and why it matters to society.
