Synopsis

"Brain Function Essentials" explores the fascinating world of neuroscience, revealing how our brains shape our thoughts, emotions, and memories. The book focuses on core aspects of brain function like information processing, memory, and the neural basis of emotions, using clear explanations accessible to anyone with a basic science interest.

 
Did you know understanding how the hippocampus functions enhances our understanding of memory formation? Or that the amygdala influences how we process and react to emotional stimuli?

 
The book uniquely integrates findings from diverse fields like psychology and education, presenting them cohesively and avoiding overly technical jargon. It begins by establishing a foundation in neurobiology, then delves into how our brains receive and process sensory information. From there, it navigates the complexities of memory, and unravels the neural circuits behind our emotions. Practical applications of neuroscience, such as improving cognitive function and managing mood, are also explored. Understanding these essential brain functions is crucial for personal development and societal progress.

    Celebrated leadership expert and political scientist Gautam Mukunda provides a comprehensive, objective, and non-partisan method for answering the most important question in the world: is someone up to the job of president of the United States? 
     
     
      
    In Picking Presidents, Gautam Mukunda sets his sights on presidential candidates, proposing a tested method to assess whether they will succeed or fail if they win the White House. Combining political science, psychology, organizational behavior, and economics, Picking Presidents will enable every American to cast an informed vote. 
     
     
      
    In his 2012 book Indispensable, which all but predicted the Trump presidency, Mukunda explained how both the very best and very worst leaders are "unfiltered"—outsiders who take power without the understanding or support of traditional elites. Picking Presidents provides deep analysis of filtered and unfiltered presidents alike, from failed haberdasher and skillful president Harry Truman, to the exceptionally well-qualified—and ultimately reviled—James Buchanan; from Andrew Johnson, who set civil rights back by a century, to Theodore Roosevelt, who evaded party opposition to transform American society. Picking Presidents lays out a clear framework that anyone can use to judge a candidate and answer the all-important question: are they up to the job?

    "The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind," written by Gustave Le Bon and first published in 1895, is a seminal work in the field of social psychology and the study of mass behavior. Le Bon explores the psychological underpinnings of crowd behavior, arguing that individuals, when part of a crowd, often lose their sense of personal responsibility and individuality. This transformation leads to collective behavior that is fundamentally different from the behavior of the individuals that constitute the crowd.Le Bon identifies several key characteristics of crowds: they are highly suggestible, prone to emotional contagion, and can be easily manipulated by leaders or prevailing ideas. He suggests that crowds operate on a more primitive and instinctual level, where rational thought is often overridden by emotion and a herd mentality. This, he argues, results in behaviors that are often irrational, impulsive, and sometimes violent.The book discusses various types of crowds, including anonymous crowds, organized crowds, and even criminal crowds, examining how their dynamics and psychological profiles differ. Le Bon's work also delves into the historical and social implications of crowd behavior, analyzing how mass movements have shaped political and social landscapes. He uses historical examples to illustrate his points, making connections between his theoretical insights and real-world events."The Crowd" has had a lasting impact on various fields, including sociology, psychology, political science, and even marketing and propaganda. Le Bon's ideas about the power of leaders to influence and control crowds have been both influential and controversial, sparking debates about the nature of mass behavior and the role of individual agency within it. Despite being over a century old, the book's insights remain relevant, offering a profound understanding of the dynamics of group behavior and the psychological mechanisms that drive collective actions.
