Download or read book The Memory Chalet written by Tony Judt and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-11-11 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Notable Book of the Year “[A] tremendously moving memorial to a first-class historian and essayist . . . humane, fearless, unsparingly honest.” —The Financial Times “[A] memorable collection from a memorable man.” —BookPage "It might be thought the height of poor taste to ascribe good fortune to a healthy man with a young family struck down at the age of sixty by an incurable degenerative disorder from which he must shortly die. But there is more than one sort of luck. To fall prey to a motor neuron disease is surely to have offended the Gods at some point, and there is nothing more to be said. But if you must suffer thus, better to have a well-stocked head." —Tony Judt The Memory Chalet is a memoir unlike any you have ever read before. Each essay charts some experience or remembrance of the past through the sieve of Tony Judt's prodigious mind. His youthful love of a particular London bus route evolves into a reflection on public civility and interwar urban planning. Memories of the 1968 student riots of Paris meander through the divergent sex politics of Europe, before concluding that his generation "was a revolutionary generation, but missed the revolution." A series of road trips across America lead not just to an appreciation of American history, but to an eventual acquisition of citizenship. Foods and trains and long-lost smells all compete for Judt's attention; but for us, he has forged his reflections into an elegant arc of analysis. All as simply and beautifully arranged as a Swiss chalet-a reassuring refuge deep in the mountains of memory.

Download or read book San Diego Lowriders: A History of Cars and Cruising written by Alberto López Pulido & Rigoberto "Rigo" Reyes and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "San Diego's unique lowrider culture and community has a long history of 'low and slow.' Cruising the streets from 1950 to 1985, twenty-eight lowrider car clubs made their marks in the San Diego neighborhoods of Logan Heights, Sherman Heights, National City, Old Town, San Ysidro and the adjoining border community of Tijuana, Mexico. Foundational clubs, including the Latin Lowriders, Brown Image and Chicano Brothers, helped transform marginalized youth into lowriders who modified their cars into elegant, stylized lowered vehicles with a strong Chicano influence. Despite being targeted by the police in the 1980s, club members defended their passion and succeeded in building a thriving scene of competitions and shows with a tradition of customization, close community and Chicano pride. Authors Alberto Lâopez Pulido and Rigoberto 'Rigo' Reyes follow the birth of lowrider culture to the present day." --

International contributors integrate key research from a range of disciplines, including social and cognitive psychology, discursive psychology, philosophy/philosophical psychology and cognitive linguistics, to increase awareness of the central role that cultural, social and technological contexts play in determining individual and collective recollections at multiple, yet interconnected, levels of human experience. Divided into three parts, cognitive and psychological perspectives, social and cultural perspectives, and cognitive linguistics and philosophical perspectives, Stone and Bietti present a breadth of research on memory in context. Topics covered include: the construction of self-identity in memory flashbulb memories scaffolding memory the cultural psychology of remembering social aspects of memory the mnemonic consequences of silence emotion and memory eyewitness identification multimodal communication and collective remembering. Contextualizing Human Memory allows researchers to understand the variety of work undertaken in related fields, and to appreciate the importance of context in understanding when, how and what is remembered at any given recollection. The book will appeal to researchers, academics and postgraduate students in the fields of cognitive and social psychology, as well as those in related disciplines interested in learning more about the advancing field of memory studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ah, memory! That fickle friend we all rely on, yet so often betrays us at the most inopportune moments. Have you ever found yourself desperately trying to remember the name of that person waving enthusiastically at you from across the street? Or perhaps you've experienced the unique panic of forgetting why you entered a room, standing there like a confused time traveler, wondering what parallel universe you've stumbled into? If you've nodded along to either of these scenarios (or both – no judgment here), then congratulations! You're officially human. And more importantly, you're in the right place. "The palest ink is better than the best memory." - Chinese Proverb Now, I know what you're thinking. "If the palest ink is better than the best memory, why am I reading a book about improving my memory instead of just writing everything down?" Excellent question, hypothetical reader! And to that, I say: Why settle for pale ink when you can have a technicolor memory? This book isn't just about remembering where you left your keys or recalling the capital of Burkina Faso (it's Ouagadougou, by the way – good luck remembering that one!). It's about unlocking the incredible potential of your mind. It's about turning your brain from a leaky bucket into a steel trap, capable of capturing and retaining information with the precision of a supercomputer and the creativity of an artist. Throughout these pages, we'll embark on a journey that's part science, part art, and maybe a little bit magic. We'll explore techniques that have been used by memory champions, secret agents (okay, I made that part up), and everyday people like you and me to dramatically improve their recall abilities. You'll learn how to: Transform your home into a memory palace (no construction permits required) Use the power of association to remember names, faces, and random facts Turn boring numbers into exciting stories (yes, really!) And much, much more... But here's the real kicker – this isn't just about party tricks or acing your next pub quiz (although those are delightful side effects). The techniques you'll learn in this book have the power to transform your life. Imagine the confidence you'll feel walking into a room full of people, knowing you can remember everyone's name. Think about how much more efficiently you could work if you could recall important information at the drop of a hat. Envision the doors that could open when you're able to learn new skills faster and retain information longer. So, buckle up, dear reader. We're about to embark on a mind-bending journey that will challenge you, amuse you, and ultimately transform the way you think and remember. By the time you finish this book, you'll have the tools to turn your mind into a finely tuned memory machine. And who knows? Maybe one day, you'll be the one writing a book about memory techniques. Just remember to thank me in the acknowledgments. (That is, if you can remember my name by then!) Ready to begin? Let's dive in and start unlocking the incredible potential of your mind!

Download or read book The Mustang Club - Rides Again written by Donald Dirnberger and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the second book of the series about The Mustang Club, entitled Rides Again, Boots and Saddles, the personal memory continues. The phrase Boots and Saddles refers to the cavalry bugle call which told the troopers it was time to get on the trail. Like the soldiers of the old west the club members took to the open road. They ventured forth to again devote themselves to the duty and honor wrought in the prestige of the muscle cars they owned.Memories came back into their lives as they took into account the new meaning which came with their graduation. Each young man had kept his car in tip top shape. Polished until the sun was like an orb that reflected the endearment shown his love. That love was not misplaced. Like a trusted old horse, when needed it would take the saddle. Then to muster forth as the challenge was issued by the throated rumble when the boots pumped the throttle. Reflections sometimes grow dim with the passage of the years. The trails embarked upon take us to different places to meet new faces and garner a taste of an intriguing love. And when at a crossroads by chance perhaps the meeting shares the memories. That faint rumble, like a distant thunder still invokes the passion.
