Summary

"The Brain Code" embarks on a journey to understand the complex neural networks and neuronal communication that underpin intelligence, decision-making, and consciousness. It argues that deciphering the brain's code is fundamental to unlocking the biological basis of thought and behavior. The book bridges molecular neuroscience and cognitive psychology, offering a framework for interpreting brain activity, emphasizing how neurons interact to form complex networks that drive cognitive functions. For example, understanding synaptic plasticity can reveal how our brains adapt and learn from new experiences. 

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with the fundamental building blocks of the brain, neurons and synapses, and advancing to explore various brain regions and their specific functions, such as sensory processing and motor control. It delves into how the brain processes information, examining neural circuits involved in perception, memory, and decision-making. Supported by neurophysiology, neuroimaging, and computational neuroscience research, "The Brain Code" provides a cohesive framework for understanding brain function at multiple levels, making it valuable for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the biological basis of thought.

    Though adult cognitive development has previously been thought to be unyielding and static, Brain Weaver offers new hope and empowerment to remain mentally vibrant for a lifetime. 
     
     
     
    Doctors Newberg and Monti's team at Thomas Jefferson University's Marcus Institute of Integrative Health are at the forefront of research in brain functioning and applications of the most advanced understanding in real-world strategies to expand options for optimizing our complex neurophysiology. 
     
     
     
    Their findings show that optimal brain health is achievable by successfully weaving together a tapestry of our bio-psycho-social-spiritual dimensions. Brain Weaver also coincides with a decades-long surge in the public's interest in whole-person treatments—body, mind, and spirit evidence-based integrative therapies that include pharmaceuticals, electromagnetics, nutrition, and meditation. Brain Weaver's timeliness is all the more important now to address a new paradigm for post-pandemic wellness that emphasizes our individual and collective responsibility for proactive healthcare.

  • The Environmental Unconscious - Ecological Poetics from Spenser to Milton - cover

    The Environmental Unconscious -...

    Why has psychoanalysis long been kept at the margins of environmental criticism despite the theories of eco-Marxism, queer ecology, and eco-deconstruction available today? What is unique, possibly even traumatic, about eco-psychoanalysis? The Environmental Unconscious addresses these questions as it provides an innovative and theoretical account of environmental loss focused on the counterintuitive forms of enjoyment that early modern poetry and psychoanalysis jointly theorize. 
     
     
     
    Steven Swarbrick urges literary critics and environmental scholars to rethink notions of entanglement, animacy, and consciousness raising. Through close readings of Edmund Spenser, Walter Ralegh, Andrew Marvell, and John Milton, he reveals a world of matter that is not merely hyperconnected, as in the new materialism, but porous and off-kilter. And yet the loss these poets reveal is central to the enjoyment their works offer—and that nature offers. 
     
     
     
    The Environmental Unconscious offers a provocative challenge to ecocriticism that a new theory of disconnection is desperately needed. Tracing the propulsive force of the environmental unconscious from the early modern period to Freudian and post-Freudian theories of desire, Swarbrick not only puts nature on the couch in this book but also renews the psychoanalytic toolkit in light of environmental collapse.

    An evocative, lyrical debut memoir from the heart of our vanishing countryside – a story of the solitary life of an eel fisherman and the radical choice to live more in tune with the natural world.Growing up in rural Herefordshire, Richard Fleming watched as his earth-bound world quietly slipped away. The peasant ethos – built on a shared stewardship of the land and its resources – had given way to private enclosures and stark divisions between landowners and those who worked the soil.Drawn by the values of that vanishing way of life, Richard set out for the edges of the British Isles. In this intimate debut memoir, Richard recounts his journey from the English countryside to the rugged coast of Connemara, the depths of the Scottish Highlands and to an ancient silver-eel trap in the West Marches, where he harvests eels as they begin their 5,000-mile migration back to the Sargasso Sea. Learning traditional craftsmanship from local carpenters and fishermen, Richard builds himself a quiet, fulfilling life.But when the European eel population suffers a catastrophic collapse, the idyll of an eelman’s life shatters. Realizing that a harmonious relationship with the natural world seems to be no longer possible, leading to a deeply personal awakening as Richard becomes an activist against the exploitative nature of the elver trade.Both a fierce call to action and a sweeping story of our changing natural world, The Eel Trap asks what it means to belong to a landscape rather than possess it – offering a refuge for anyone longing to reconnect with the wild.
