Beschreibung

Oddest Human Phobias explores the intriguing world of irrational fears, delving into phobias so unique they might seem unbelievable. It investigates the science behind these anxieties, aiming to help readers understand how and why such specific fears develop. For instance, the book highlights conditions like chromophobia (fear of colors), nomophobia (fear of being without a mobile device), and globophobia (fear of balloons), illustrating their impact on daily life through detailed case studies.

 
These unusual phobias, though seemingly bizarre, are rooted in identifiable psychological and neurological processes. The book progresses logically, starting with the fundamental concepts of phobias, distinguishing between fear, anxiety, and phobia. It then examines specific categories of unusual phobias, providing research findings and case studies. Finally, it explores available treatments such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure therapy.

 
Readers will gain insights into the psychological mechanisms underpinning phobias, from evolutionary origins to learned responses. Understanding phobias is key to destigmatizing mental health conditions and promoting empathy. The book emphasizes empirical evidence while avoiding jargon, making it accessible to anyone curious about psychology and mental health.

Planet Earth Is Conscious - And...

Martin K. Ettington

This book explores the concepts of our planet Earth being a conscious entity, and all of the incredible places life has been found, around, on, and inside our planet. 
I believe that planet Earth (also known as Gaia) is a conscious being in its own right. Many of the ancients also believed the same thing. 
Even metaphysical philosophies like Theosophy talk about the Gaia consciousness and that there are even higher level beings like the Solar Logos. 
There is an amazing amount of life on Earth—much of which has only been discovered in recent decades. 
For example: did you know that life penetrates the Earth’s crust down to at least seven miles beneath the Ocean’s seabed, and possibly much deeper. 
That life exists in Lake Vostok beneath the Antarctic Ice which hasn’t been in contact with the surface for many thousands of years? 
There has also been new bacteria found on the International Space Station and in meteorites which have hit the Earth. 
Life exists on our planet in many unusual and amazing places and you will be amazed at its diversity.

Six Not-So-Easy Pieces -...

Richard P. Feynman

Learn about Einstein's theory of relativity from a physics Nobel laureate and "one of the greatest minds of the twentieth century" (New York Review of Books) in six memorable lessons It was Richard Feynman's outrageous and scintillating method of teaching that earned him legendary status among students and professors of physics. From 1961 to 1963, Feynman delivered a series of lectures at the California Institute of Technology that revolutionized the teaching of physics. In Six Not-So-Easy Pieces, taken from these famous Lectures on Physics, Feynman delves into one of the most revolutionary discoveries in twentieth-century physics: Einstein's theory of relativity. The idea that the flow of time is not a constant, that the mass of an object depends on its velocity, and that the speed of light is a constant no matter what the motion of the observer, at first seemed shocking to scientists and laymen alike. But as Feynman shows, these tricky ideas are not merely dry principles of physics, but things of beauty and elegance. No one — not even Einstein himself — explained these difficult, anti-intuitive concepts more clearly, or with more verve and gusto, than Feynman. Filled with wonderful examples and clever illustrations, Six Not-So-Easy Pieces is the ideal introduction to the fundamentals of physics by one of the most admired and accessible physicists of all time. “There is no better explanation for the scientifically literate layman.” –Washington Post Book World
