  You’ve probably heard of mind maps before. In school you surely had teachers create them more than once, with a main idea in the middle, and the branches that popped out in all directions, with sub-themes, which looked like a giant spider on the blackboard. You probably didn’t give much thought to them back then, and you’ve probably even forgotten about them in general by now. 
  	The thing is, though they might bring you back to thoughts of elementary-level learning, Mind Maps can be an excellent visual tool for pretty much everything you can imagine. It’s been argued that the type of memory people use the most is visual. Mind Maps are great for exploiting this memory because they have the additional benefit of working similar to the way our mind does. 
  	We have grown used to note-taking and list-making, but our brain does not work in a linear way; it actually functions by making free associations between ideas that branch from one onto the other. Mind Maps are the same. You part from a main idea, which then opens onto more sub-topics that are related directly to it. This helps structure the information you will be working with, which in turn helps you analyze, understand, and compress the data correctly, which then makes it easier for you to remember it and create new ideas parting from that point. 
  	Mind Maps are a very simple way to arrange your thoughts in an analytical, but also artistic way, something that makes more than one area of your brain work on it, making it engage various cognitive functions, so that you can learn or organize your ideas better. This book will teach you mind mapping techniques from A to Z. Get it Now!

  Talking Down The Clock - and...

  Talking Down The Clock is Seamus Cashman's fifth volume of poetry. It follows his 2015 ekphrastic book-length poem, The Sistine Gaze, from which this following quotation is taken: 
  "We are lovers of the earth, not its spouses bound or bought. We are siblings of the stars, sating history's well. Lovers live in beauty's orbit, bypassing time. We change words to love all over again; we mould our shadows with pigments; we make alternatives." (Verse 130, The Sistine Gaze) 
  Cashman Appreciated that TIME was the key challenge, and ventured two poetic sequences, intending to follow where they might lead. These sequences, 'Notebook Exits' and 'Daily Breaks', find time becoming a circus master and cracking the whip daily. Between these sequences are poems for young readersm and lyrics of people, places and sorrow each reflecting Palestine's endurance. 
  In his early collections there was a focis on village life and personal mythologies, the poet found 'fire crackling faggots / at my feet / I inhaled it's fragrance / and forgave myself. / I still could see.'. Now he seeks within, threading the ordinary through the abstract, linking the human via buttonholes of experience, philosophy and the uncertain, clearly enjoying what is encountered enroute. He relishes experiment, as in 'To The Naked Women In The Far Window', 'Be Still', 'Owl', 'Composition', 'Fractalities', 'Catastrophe Turnings' and others. 
  This collection's title poem is a spiral of excitement and image, leading readers through time's impositions and confusions – seeking to seize and to size it, facing the impossibility of ignoring it. We taste how to 'Just Be' as we observe time abseiling life within us to its own rhythms.

  20 Myths about Religion and...

  Ryan P. Burge

  The way most people think about religion and politics is only loosely linked to empirical reality, argues Ryan P. Burge in 20 Myths about Religion and Politics in America. Instead, our thinking is based on anecdotes, a quick scan of news headlines, or worse, flat-out lies told by voices trying to push a religious or political agenda on a distracted public. 
   
   
   
  Burge sees this fundamentally flawed understanding of the world around us and our misperceptions about where we fit into the larger fabric of society as caustic for the future of American politics and religion. Without an accurate picture of our society, when we subscribe to only caricatures of what our country looks like, we never really address the problems facing us. 
   
   
   
  Striving to be an impartial referee, Burge describes with accessible and engaging prose what the data says. Step by step, he debunks twenty myths, using rigorous data analysis and straightforward explanations. He gives listeners the resources to adopt an empirical view of the world that can help all of us, religious and nonreligious alike, get past at least some of the unsupported beliefs that divide us.
