Synopsis

"Science of Sleep" explores the crucial role sleep plays in our lives, going beyond a simple period of rest to reveal its intricate connection to our health and cognitive functions. The book investigates the biological and psychological mechanisms that govern sleep, highlighting how it impacts everything from cellular repair to memory consolidation. Did you know that sleep patterns have adapted across different species, and that our understanding of sleep has evolved from ancient beliefs to modern scientific discoveries? The book takes you on a journey through the stages of sleep, the science of dreams, and the impact of sleep on memory, learning, and various health conditions. It delves into the neuroscience of sleep, offering insights into how our brains orchestrate this nightly process. By understanding these mechanisms, the book argues, we can optimize our sleep habits and improve our waking lives. It uses scientific evidence, incorporating findings from sleep studies and neuroimaging research, to provide a robust and evidence-based approach. The book begins with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of sleep and progresses to explore the science of dreams. The latter sections focus on practical strategies for improving sleep quality and addressing common sleep disorders, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in sleep science, sleep disorders, and sleep hygiene.

    内容简介:
    本书从句法与形态接口视角主要探讨现代汉语中三个与"得"相关的结构,即带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句和状态补语句,并对这三类结构做出一个较为统一的考察。研究发现,带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句及状态补语句受制于很多共同的限制,如该类结构中的动词都不能受方式状语修饰,该类结构都不能使用肯定的命令式等。本研究不仅可以找出某些带"得"的状态补语句与某些带"得"的可能补语句(或结果补语句)之间存在歧义的根源,还可以揭示与"得"相关的这几类句型之间的内部联系及其背后隐藏的普遍语法规律。

    In a world obsessed with appearances, hookups, and hustle culture, Social Climbing Through Sex: The Evolutionary Elevator delivers a brutally honest, darkly humorous, and disturbingly true exposé on how sexual strategy shapes success. Combining evolutionary biology, psychology, gender politics, and historical case studies, this book unpacks the unapologetic truth: sex is not just about pleasure—it's a currency, a ladder, a tool of power. 
    From primal instincts to Instagram thirst traps, from Cleopatra to corporate courtesans, this book traces the ancient and modern tactics of those who ascend society through desire rather than merit. Women who withhold, men who flaunt, and everyone in between—this is not about morality. It's about mechanism. 
    Explore why celibacy is a power move, why desire doesn't equal value, and how modern archetypes like the Cool Girl, the Virgin Strategist, and the Evolved Escort aren't just real—they're thriving. 
    Whether you're a student of human nature or just curious about what lies beneath the glossy surface of dating apps, weddings, and bedroom "empowerment," this book offers a chilling revelation: love may be blind, but sex wears designer sunglasses and always looks up.

    The creator of the Polyvagal Theory explains the principles in simple terms that are accessible to all. 
     
     
     
    Since Stephen Porges first proposed the Polyvagal Theory in 1994, its basic idea—that the level of safety we feel impacts our health and happiness—has radically shifted how researchers and clinicians approach trauma interventions and therapeutic interactions. Yet despite its wide acceptance, most of the writing on the topic has been obscured behind clinical texts and scientific jargon. 
     
     
     
    Our Polyvagal World definitively presents how Polyvagal Theory can be understandable to all and demonstrates how its practical principles are applicable to anyone looking to live their safest, best, healthiest, and happiest life. What emerges is a worldview filled with optimism and hope, and an understanding as to why our bodies sometimes act in ways our brains wish they didn't. 
     
     
     
    Filled with actionable advice and real-world examples, this book will change the way you think about your brain, body, and ability to stay calm in a world that feels increasingly overwhelming and stressful.

    Florida's Space Coast tells the compelling story of America's half century in space exploration from the successful launch of the first two-stage rocket in 1950 through the space shuttle missions of 2000. Told from the unique viewpoint of the people who built the Spaceport, this book shows how the space program transformed the east central Florida coast from a traditional citrus production and tourist area to one of the most influential high-tech centers in the nation. 
     
     
     
    Cape Canaveral was chosen as a missile launch site because of its many geographical advantages. However, in the early years of the space program, the area was far from an ideal place for NASA employees to raise their families. NASA brought in thousands of space-related workers, who, besides sending machines and people into space, had to meet the challenge of moving their families from urban environs to a rural southern county. This book engagingly recounts the parallel stories of the establishment of America's space program and its impact on the development of Brevard County.

    In a world that is constantly evolving, where change seems to be the only constant, the concept of consistency emerges as a vital cornerstone for personal growth, professional success, and enduring relationships. Consistency is not simply about adhering to routines or following habits; it represents a deliberate commitment to living with integrity, purpose, and unwavering resolve. This chapter examines the true meaning of consistency and explains how maintaining a steady approach can fundamentally transform every area of our lives. 
    At its essence, consistency is the alignment of our actions, words, and beliefs over time. It is the practice of showing up each day, regardless of the challenges we face, and performing in a manner that is true to our deepest convictions. Such steady adherence creates a solid foundation of trust and reliability, qualities that are indispensable both in personal interactions and in the professional sphere. Those who master consistency often find that their lives become more predictable, their relationships stronger, and their sense of self more grounded. 
    Yet, the path to consistency is rarely without obstacles. Life is filled with distractions, setbacks, and unforeseen changes that can disrupt even the best-laid plans. Embracing consistency means accepting that challenges are an inherent part of any journey. It is about learning to see setbacks not as failures, but as opportunities to learn and grow. By focusing on incremental progress and taking deliberate, small steps each day, we develop the resilience needed to persevere and achieve long-term success.
