Synopsis

Unreasonable Hospitality By Will Guidara

Will Guidara had the opportunity to participate in a course called "Guest Chefs" while attending Cornell College. Every semester, a renowned chef would visit to prepare a dinner that the students in the course would independently manage. Guidara's team had the privilege of working with the famous chef Daniel Boulud. The dinner was successful, and they celebrated with a small party afterward. Guidara's experience with Boulud left a lasting impact, including a memory of Boulud making scrambled eggs for intoxicated college students.
However, tragedy struck when Guidara's mother passed away after a long battle with brain cancer. While he had plans to work in a kitchen in Spain, he was hesitant to rely solely on his father for financial support. Despite this, his father encouraged him to fulfill his commitment. Guidara later reached out to Boulud, requesting a special reservation for his father. Boulud generously provided a free meal in a reserved room, allowing Guidara and his father to share a special dinner together.
Guidara and his father found solace in the warm hospitality provided by Boulud and his team during their time of grief. The experience helped them overcome their sadness and brought comfort during a difficult period. From this, Guidara learned the value of using one's skills to positively impact the lives of others.

The History of Emotions - A Very...

Thomas Dixon

Emotions are complex mental states that resist reduction. They are visceral reactions but also beliefs about the world. They are spontaneous outbursts but also culturally learned performances. And just as our emotions in any given moment display this complex structure, so their history is plural rather than singular. The history of emotions is where the history of ideas meets the history of the body, and where the history of subjectivity meets social and cultural history. 
 
 
 
In this Very Short Introduction, Thomas Dixon traces the historical ancestries of feelings ranging from sorrow, melancholy, rage, and terror to cheerfulness, enthusiasm, sympathy, and love. The picture that emerges is a complex one, showing how the states we group together today as "the emotions" are the product of long and varied historical changes in language, culture, beliefs, and ways of life. 
 
 
 
With examples from ancient, medieval, and modern cultures, this Very Short Introduction sheds new light on our emotions in the present, by looking at what historians can tell us about their past. Dixon explains the key ideas of historians of emotions as they have developed in conversation with psychology and psychiatry, with attention paid especially to ideas about basic emotions, psychological construction, and affect theory.

Medieval Japan - Samurai and...

Harris Ropes

The rise of feudal Japan marked a significant turning point in the nation's political and social history. Beginning in the late 8th to early 9th centuries, the centralized power of the imperial court in Kyoto began to wane. As emperors became more ceremonial figures, real power shifted into the hands of powerful landowning families and military clans in the provinces. These regional lords, or daimyo, started to assert control over their own territories, gradually weakening the authority of the imperial government.
This period of decentralization gave birth to a new system where local warlords governed through a network of vassals and military retainers. In return for loyalty and service, these retainers were granted land or a share in the profits from agricultural production. This land-based reward system laid the foundation for the feudal structure that would define medieval Japan for centuries to come. Unlike in Europe, where feudalism was based on strict legal contracts, Japan’s version emphasized personal loyalty and honor, often backed by military strength.
The emergence of powerful clans such as the Minamoto and Taira further accelerated the move toward feudal governance. Their rivalry culminated in the Genpei War (1180–1185), a brutal conflict that ultimately led to the downfall of the Taira clan and the rise of the Minamoto. In 1192, Minamoto no Yoritomo was appointed Seii Taishogun, or Shogun, by the emperor, establishing the first shogunate in Kamakura. This event marked the formal beginning of military rule in Japan and the creation of a dual-government system, where the emperor remained as a symbolic figure while the shogun held actual power.

Elusive Cures - Why Neuroscience...

Nicole C. Rust

Brain research has been accelerating rapidly in recent decades, but the translation of our many discoveries into treatments and cures for brain disorders has not happened as many expected. We do not have cures for the vast majority of brain illnesses, and many medications we have to treat the brain are derived from drugs produced in the 1950s—before we knew much about the brain at all. Tackling brain disorders is one of the biggest challenges facing humanity today. What will it take to overcome it? Nicole Rust takes listeners along on her journey to answer this question. 
 
 
 
Drawing on decades of experience, Rust reflects on how far we have come in our quest to unlock the secrets of the brain and what remains to be discovered. She shows us that treating a brain disorder is more like redirecting a hurricane than fixing a domino chain of cause and effect, arguing that only once we embrace the idea of the brain as a complex system do we have any hope of finding cures. Rust profiles the pioneering ideas about the brain that are driving research at the cutting edge to illuminate exactly how much we know about disorders—and what it will take to eradicate these scourges. 
 
 
 
Elusive Cures sheds light on one of the most daunting challenges confronted by science while offering hope for revolutionary new treatments and cures for the brain.
