Sinopse

The book "Placebo Effect" explores the fascinating intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and immunology to understand how our beliefs and expectations can trigger real physiological changes. It delves into the science behind the placebo effect, demonstrating how inert treatments can measurably improve a patient's condition simply because they believe it will work. One intriguing area explored is how placebo interventions can influence immune cell activity, illustrating the power of the mind-body connection. Another insight highlights how expectations can modulate brain activity, impacting pain modulation and emotional regulation. This book uniquely integrates findings from various fields to offer a comprehensive psychobiological model of the placebo effect, emphasizing the importance of patient-centered care. 

 
The book progresses by first defining the placebo effect and distinguishing it from other phenomena. Then it examines the neurobiological mechanisms and finally focuses on clinical applications and ethical considerations. By presenting detailed research and clinical applications, "Placebo Effect" challenges the traditional view of medicine and highlights the body's inherent capacity for self-healing.

Playful Materialities - The...

Gundolf S. Freyermuth, Benjamin...

Game culture and material culture have always been closely linked. Analog forms of rule-based play (ludus) would hardly be conceivable without dice, cards, and game boards. In the act of free play (paidia), children as well as adults transform simple objects into multifaceted toys in an almost magical way. Even digital play is suffused with material culture: Games are not only mediated by technical interfaces, which we access via hardware and tangible peripherals. They are also subject to material hybridization, paratextual framing, and processes of de-, and re-materialization.

The Poverty of Philosophy

Karl Marx

Marx started work on this book in January 1847, as can be judged from Engel's letter to Marx on January 15, 1847. By the beginning of April 1847, Marx's work was completed in the main and had gone to the press. On June 15, 1847, he wrote a short foreword.Published in Paris and Brussels in 1847, the book was not republished in full during Marx's lifetime. Excerpts from section five of Chapter Two appeared in different years, mostly between 1872 - 1875 in papers such as La Emancipacion, Der Volksstaat, Social-Demokrat, and others. In 1880 Marx attempted to publish the Poverty of Philosophy in the French socialist newspaper L'Égalité, the organ of the French Workers' Party, but only the foreword and section one of Chapter One were published.This translation is from the original 1847 French edition. It has been updated to also include the changes/corrections Marx made in the copy of the book he presented to N. Utina in 1876, as well as the corrections made by Frederick Engels in the second French edition and the German editions of 1885 and 1892. The first English edition of this work was published in 1900 by Twentieth Century Press.

Planta Sapiens - The New Science...

Paco Calvo, Natalie Lawrence

An astonishing window into the inner world of plants, and the cutting-edge science in plant intelligence. 
 
 
 
Decades of research document plants' impressive abilities: they communicate with one another, manipulate other species, and move in sophisticated ways. Lesser known, however, is the new evidence that plants may actually be sentient. Although plants may not have brains, their microscopic commerce exposes a system not unlike the neuronal networks running through our own bodies. They can learn and remember, possessing an intelligence that allows them to behave in adaptive, flexible, anticipatory, and goal-directed ways. 
 
 
 
A leading figure in the philosophy of plant signaling and behavior, Paco Calvo offers an entirely new perspective on plant biology. In Planta Sapiens, he shows for the first time how we can use tools developed in animal cognition studies in a quest to deeply understand plant intelligence. He illuminates how plants inspire technological advancements: from robotics and AI to tackling the ecological crisis. Most importantly, he demonstrates that plants are neither objects nor resources; they are agents in themselves, and for themselves.
