Time Perception Science

Summary

Time Perception Science explores the fascinating ways our brains construct our subjective experience of time. It examines how neural mechanisms and cognitive processes work together, influencing everything from planning to social interactions. One intriguing fact is that our perception of time isn't passive; it's actively shaped by factors like attention and emotion. This book uniquely emphasizes the dynamic interplay of various brain regions, rather than pinpointing a single "time center."

 
The book progresses systematically, first laying the groundwork with historical and philosophical perspectives. It then delves into the neuroscience of time perception, exploring brain regions and neural oscillations. Next, it examines cognitive and psychological influences, such as how conditions like Parkinson's disease can alter time perception. By integrating findings from neuroscience, psychology, and cognitive science, Time Perception Science offers a comprehensive understanding of how we experience time, including how our brains process temporal information.

The War of Words - How America’s...

Molly Guptill Manning

From New York Times bestselling author Molly Guptill Manning comes The War of Words, the captivating story of how American troops in World War II wielded pens to tell their own stories as they made history.At a time when civilian periodicals faced strict censorship, US Army Chief of Staff George Marshall won the support of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to create an expansive troop-newspaper program. Both Marshall and FDR recognized that there was a second struggle taking place outside the battlefields of World War II—the war of words. While Hitler inundated the globe with propaganda, morale across the US Army dwindled. As the Axis blurred the lines between truth and fiction, the best defense was for American troops to bring the truth into focus by writing it down and disseminating it themselves.By war’s end, over 4,600 unique GI publications had been printed around the world. In newsprint, troops made sense of their hardships, losses, and reasons for fighting. These newspapers—by and for the troops—became the heart and soul of a unit.From Normandy to the shores of Japan, American soldiers exercised a level of free speech the military had never known nor would again. It was an extraordinary chapter in American democracy and military history. In the war for “four freedoms,” it was remarkably fitting that troops fought not only with guns but with their pens. This stunning volume includes fourteen pages of photographs and illustrations.

The Clark Kent Chronicles - A...

PF Hutchins

Pamela takes readers on a heart-wrenching and hilarious road trip from toddler to adulthood with Clark Kent and his family, sharing their collective wisdom and empathy along the way.
Are you one of "those" parents? If so, pour a cup of coffee, grab a tissue, and stay for a while. You're in the company of a good friend.
A Mother's Tale Of Life With Her ADHD And Asperger's Son
They’re the parents who other people secretly believe must be doing a crappy job, the ones whose children don lacrosse gloves to weed the flowerbed, won’t turn in their homework, and throw age-inappropriate tantrums in public. They’re the parents one frayed nerve short of a breakdown as they scrub off the giant perceived “L” for Loser from their foreheads, turning for help to every source they can think of, because their kids just don’t respond like other kids, because their kids aren’t like other kids. The very brains of their children are wired differently, and the disciplines, motivators, and strategies that are supposed to work on them, according to conventional wisdom, don’t.
These are the parents of children on the ADHD Spectrum, and most of them have used up their Phone a Friend Lifeline and just want a little understanding and the hope of shared knowledge from someone else who has survived a life like theirs. They are parents like Pamela Fagan Hutchins, whose son, dubbed “Clark Kent the WonderKid,” has ADHD and Asperger’s Syndrome.
Pamela takes readers on a heart-wrenching and hilarious road trip from toddler to adulthood with Clark Kent and his family, sharing their collective wisdom and empathy along the way.
*** "Clark Kent and his Momma are my kind of heroes."
"Survivor's guide for parents like me."
"Great read."
"I now know I am not alone."
"Sweet, funny, and endearing."
*** See why Hutchins is called an "up-and-coming powerhouse writer" and "the Erma Bombeck of her generation."

The Virus and the Host - Protect...

Dr. Chris Chlebowski

There will almost certainly be more pandemics in our future. Yet, during the coronavirus crisis, not a single major public-health official took the simple step of telling Americans what we all need to hear: robust good health?healthy immunity, low inflammation, low toxic burden, and freedom from stealth infection and chronic disease?is our best defense against infectious viral disease. The way our bodies interact with infectious disease is complicated?both a function of the “germ” and the “terrain”?the virus and the host. In The Virus and the Host, Dr. Chlebowski succinctly describes emerging science on the virome and how toxic exposure, chronic inflammation, infections, and chronic diseases interact and predispose us to poor outcomes from acute viral infection. He then clearly outlines the tools needed for better health, including these: -The best nutrients to supercharge your immunity -How to harness the power of botanical medicine -How to detoxify simply and safely at home -Valuable information on simple treatment and recommended diagnostic tests for given conditions As we move forward from the tragedy of COVID-19, it is essential that we come together to learn from our mistakes and work hard?and work together?to prevent a similar crisis in the future. When the next pandemic hits, we need to be better prepared. Now is the time to do something, and it is the best investment we can make so that when the next one hits we can keep our loved ones and ourselves safe and healthy.
