Sinossi

Memory Boost Tips transforms cognitive science into practical tools for everyday life, arguing that memory isn’t fixed but a trainable skill. Blending neuroscience and psychology, the book reveals how techniques like spaced repetition—a learning method proven to boost retention by 35% compared to cramming—and the ancient method of loci (linking memories to visual landmarks) can reshape brain function. Central to its approach is neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to rewire itself, which readers harness through exercises grounded in decades of research, from Hermann Ebbinghaus’s memory decay studies to modern fMRI insights.

 
The book progresses from explaining core memory systems to actionable strategies, emphasizing why methods work. For instance, it links dopamine release during practice to stronger neural pathways, offering deeper motivation for habit change. Lifestyle factors like sleep’s role in memory consolidation and omega-3s’ cognitive benefits are woven into the science, avoiding quick fixes for sustainable growth. Unlike generic self-help guides, it balances mechanistic explanations (e.g., hippocampus function) with relatable examples, such as using mnemonics to learn languages or prepare presentations.

 
Final chapters synthesize techniques into customizable plans, supported by checklists and study summaries, making advanced concepts accessible to students, professionals, and aging adults alike. By demystifying brain science, the book empowers readers to view memory not as a flaw but a dynamic resource waiting to be unlocked.

    We all experience intense emotions like anger at times. Not only is anger normal, but it can serve as a great motivator and a way to improve one’s emotional intelligence. It can encourage self-improvement, instill a sense of self-control, and even trigger our “fight” response which is necessary for survival. At the most basic level, anger can help children determine whether they’re being treated fairly and allows them to tell when things aren’t right. That being said, anger can become a severe problem if it grows out of control and leads to aggressive behaviors. 
    An angry child isn’t a bad one, nor are their attitudes and actions necessarily a result of behavioral problems. These intense emotions are often triggered by psychological, social, or even hormonal problems, which is why parents should try to understand where their children’s anger comes from to handle the situation effectively. In most cases, the root problem is not apparent, which is why parents automatically assume that their children are misbehaving, so they take action accordingly. Grounding or yelling at a child who can’t control their anger isn’t going to fix anything and will likely make things worse.

    Michel Foucault, a French philosopher, historian, and social theorist, is renowned for his critical exploration of power, knowledge, and social institutions. Born in 1926, Foucault’s work spans a range of disciplines, from philosophy to sociology, psychology, and political science. His intellectual journey reflects a unique approach to understanding human societies, focusing not on abstract metaphysical systems but on the structures that shape human behavior, knowledge, and institutions. 
    Foucault’s work is marked by a critique of the traditional ways of understanding the relationship between individuals and society. He challenged the dominant historical narratives and sought to uncover the deeper structures of power that influenced the development of knowledge. One of his central ideas was that knowledge and power are intimately connected—knowledge is not neutral but shaped by power relations that determine what is considered true or false. In this sense, his work was not just theoretical but deeply political, as it explored how systems of power create the conditions for knowledge and vice versa. 
    Foucault’s philosophy is often associated with his concept of "genealogy," a method he developed to investigate historical processes and the ways in which ideas, norms, and practices evolve over time. However, it is in his "archaeology of knowledge" that he makes his most significant philosophical contributions. The archaeological method is a way of analyzing the historical layers of knowledge and uncovering the deep structures that underlie our understanding of the world. Unlike traditional historiography, which tends to focus on narratives and individuals, Foucault's archaeology examines the discourses and institutions that create and maintain knowledge, highlighting the ways they shape and limit what can be known.

    Most people know of witches from the movies. Horror films with evil, cackling old women dressed in black, mixing potions and lotions and bringing doom to her victims. 
     
    The truth is in fact, as normal, far from the Hollywood version. Most of this false reality comes from religious intolerance over the centuries. Witchcraft was a threat to established religion and can be dated right back into the Bible itself. 
     
    Church propaganda spread stories and fear among the masses. This in turn brought down violence upon those practising witchcraft. Hounded out of town, victimised or even burned alive or drowned, the role of those practising the old arts was not one to be jealous of. If there was any true horror, then it was for the witches themselves. 
     
    Their craft is as old as history and it holds a great many truths, both natural and psychological. It finds it’s origins in ancient techniques of natural healing and a uniting of the natural world with that of humanity. Many of the discoveries made by witches are now common practice in homeopathy. 
     
    So what is the real truth? Did witches deal with the devil? Did they eat their victims? Did they mix their special brews in big black cauldrons? It’s time to find out.

    How can we build more accessible cities? Living Disability brings together vibrant perspectives on disability justice and urban systems. From sidewalks to the climate crisis, Living Disability brings together the vibrant perspectives of thirty-five disabled writers. They explore disability justice, analyze urban systems, and propose more equitable approaches to city building. Essays and interviews push the conversation about accessibility beyond policy papers and compliance checklists to show how disabled people are already creating more inclusive spaces in cities of all sizes.
      
      Living Disability is universal in scope but intimate and local in focus, grounded in personal struggles and celebrations. 
     Decisions about public transit, affordable housing, and park design all disproportionately impact disabled communities; by sharing stories and strategies, contributors consider the ways disabled thinkers and doers are embracing overlooked aspects of urban design and tackling the toughest problems facing cities. 
     
    "Living Disability is at once hopeful and infuriating, solemn and joyous. The stories shared within these pages point to both the past and future simultaneously – illuminating the struggles and joys and history of disabled life, while putting access barriers on blast in a way that is more necessary than ever. The deep, rich work of this collection lies in its embrace of complexity, community, grief, and also its belief in the capacity of our world (read: us) to change. May these stories touch your heart, kindle the flame of your anger, and move you forward into fighting for the better world we all deserve." – Amanda Leduc, author of Disfigured: On Fairy Tales, Disability, and Making Space
