Sinossi

Strange Time Perceptions explores the subjective experience of time, revealing how our brains construct this fundamental aspect of reality. The book highlights that our perception isn't fixed but is shaped by emotions, attention, and cognitive processes, such as how moments of crisis can seem to stretch on, demonstrating temporal distortion. It delves into the neuroscience behind our internal chronometer, examining brain regions like the basal ganglia and prefrontal cortex that contribute to our sense of timing.

 
The book progresses by first establishing the psychological and neurological basis of time perception. It then investigates specific phenomena like time dilation and the influence of memory, offering insights into how daily routines affect our subjective experience. Finally, the book explores practical applications, such as stress management and improved cognitive performance.

 
By synthesizing findings from psychology, neuroscience, and biology, Strange Time Perceptions provides a comprehensive understanding of this complex phenomenon, making it valuable to anyone interested in the workings of the human mind.

    We broke our new series on learning Spanish down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Spanish.  
    In Unit 1 you will hear Spanish decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
    Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Spanish speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Spanish. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Spanish at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Spanish, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
    In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with. 
    Topics covered in this book: 
    1. Asking about family 
    2. Asking about relationship status 
    3. Expressing frequency 
    4. Talking about spare time activities and hobbies

    Read by the author, Tiffany Jenkins'Brilliantly original . . . endlessly fascinating and full of surprises' – Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen'It is refreshing - and empowering - to read such a nuanced, thoughtful history of this slippery concept' – Kate Fox, author of Watching the EnglishA Financial Times 'What to read in 2025' BookFrom ancient times to our digital present, Strangers and Intimates traces the dramatic emergence of private life, and argues that it is now in mortal danger.In this sweeping history, acclaimed cultural historian Tiffany Jenkins takes readers on an epic journey, from the strict separations of public and private in ancient Athens to the moral rigidity of the Victorian home, and from the feminists of the 1970s who declared that ‘the personal is political’ to the boundary-blurring demands of our digital age.Strangers and Intimates is both a celebration of the private realm and a warning: as social media, surveillance and the expectations of constant openness reshape our lives, Jenkins asks a timely question: can private life survive the demands of the twenty-first century?
