Sinopse

Brain Chemistry explores the biological basis of addiction, revealing how addictive substances fundamentally alter neural pathways and impair rational decision-making. Addiction isn't simply a matter of willpower; instead, it's a complex interplay of biological vulnerabilities and environmental influences that rewire the brain. Understanding the brain's reward system, including the roles of dopamine and serotonin, is crucial for comprehending addiction. The book delves into the neurochemical changes caused by addictive substances, the impairment of cognitive functions like impulse control and risk assessment, and the long-term effects on brain structure and function.

 
It progresses by first introducing basic principles of brain chemistry, followed by sections focused on specific neurochemical changes, cognitive impairments, and structural changes. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of how addiction impacts the brain.

 
This book is unique in its accessible yet rigorous exploration of addiction's neurobiology, bridging biology, psychology, and social science. It integrates molecular-level details with cognitive and behavioral manifestations, offering valuable insights for students, healthcare professionals, and anyone seeking to understand the science behind addiction.

    Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of eye diseases and disorders. It encompasses the care of the eyes, as well as vision, including conditions that affect the ability to see clearly. As one of the most specialized fields of healthcare, ophthalmology combines elements of surgery, medical diagnosis, and therapeutic care. The eye is an intricate organ that plays a crucial role in the way humans experience the world, and ophthalmology seeks to preserve and enhance vision by addressing a wide range of eye-related conditions. 
    The role of ophthalmologists, medical doctors specialized in eye care, is pivotal in maintaining visual health and addressing the complexities of eye diseases. Ophthalmologists undergo years of specialized education and training in both medical and surgical aspects of eye care. They are responsible for providing comprehensive services, ranging from routine eye examinations to advanced surgical procedures such as cataract surgery, glaucoma treatments, and retinal surgeries. Their expertise also extends to diagnosing and managing diseases that affect the entire eye, from the cornea and lens to the retina and optic nerve. 
    Over the centuries, the field of ophthalmology has evolved considerably. Ancient civilizations, including the Egyptians and Greeks, made early attempts to understand the anatomy and function of the eye. However, it was in the 19th and 20th centuries that modern ophthalmology truly began to take shape, with the invention of essential diagnostic tools and surgical techniques. The development of the ophthalmoscope, for example, revolutionized the ability to examine the interior of the eye, leading to more accurate diagnoses. In the following decades, innovations in surgical methods, such as cataract surgery, and advances in treatments for conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration have drastically improved patient outcomes.

    I’ve already written a couple of books on prophecy and premonitions including my own experiences. 
    But as an engineer I felt that I really had not fully communicated what I’ve learned about these abilities and how we can apply this knowledge to our lives. 
    Thus the purpose of this book is to be as detailed as I can be about what premonitions are and how you can use them to improve your life and change your probable futures. 
    As an engineer and experiencer of many modes of premonitions and prophecies I feel I have a lot to offer here and want you the reader to benefit from what I’ve learned. 
    Historical prophecies are also covered as are the real source of premonitional abilities, techniques to see your own futures, how far ahead people can see the future, how to use these techniques with a group of people, and much more on the importance of prophecy in our world. 
    The ability to change the direction of your fate is also discussed.

    Urban transportation plays a pivotal role in shaping the economic, social, and environmental landscapes of cities. As populations grow and urban areas expand, the movement of people and goods becomes increasingly critical to maintaining economic vitality and quality of life. Urban transportation economics is the study of the costs and benefits associated with transportation systems, focusing on the ways in which these systems contribute to or detract from urban development. 
    At its core, urban transportation economics examines the interplay between infrastructure investments, operational costs, and the benefits derived from mobility and accessibility. Transportation systems enable individuals to commute to work, access essential services, and engage in social activities, while also facilitating the movement of goods that support local businesses and global trade. However, these benefits often come with significant costs, including financial expenses, environmental impacts, and social inequalities. Understanding this balance is crucial for policymakers, urban planners, and stakeholders who aim to design systems that maximize positive outcomes while minimizing negative externalities. 
    One of the key challenges in urban transportation economics is addressing the concept of externalities. Transportation systems often generate unintended consequences, such as traffic congestion, air pollution, and noise, which affect the broader community. These externalities can lead to market failures, where the true costs of transportation are not fully reflected in the prices users pay. Conversely, transportation systems can also produce positive externalities, such as increased economic activity and improved social cohesion, which are not always adequately valued. Striking a balance between these opposing forces is an essential component of transportation planning and policy.

    The Book Of Earths

    This is a compendium of theories of the shape of the Earth, along with a great deal of 'Earth Mystery' lore. Richly illustrated, the Book of Earths includes many unusual theories, including Columbus' idea that the Earth is literally pear-shaped, modern theories that the Earth was originally tetrahedral, and so on. Kenton also covers many traditional theories including the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, Hindu and Buddhist cosmology, and those of the Peruvians, Aztecs and Mongols. She also discusses modern alternative theories such as that of Reed and Koresh. Strangely enough, she misses or ignores the modern flat earth theory of Rowbotham. This is the only apparent omission in this definitive study. Kenton has no apparent axe to grind: this is simply a very readable survey of the literature if you have any interest in 'Earth mysteries"
