Book excerpt: After the truth about Adonis' past comes to light, his release from prison is now in jeopardy. And with the true identity of Chaz being revealed, there is nothing that could possibly stop Michael ‘Flex' Owens from getting at the woman responsible for his pain and suffering. Not only is Flex on a mission to get at Chaz—the bane of his existence—but he also enlists the help of some unexpected people. That’s when things really take a turn for the worst and change the dynamics of how things were supposed to turn out. However, prior to Flex getting the help he so desperately needed, he encounters a life changing ordeal with someone that is also tied to Chaz. Ultimately, the situation that Flex finds himself in is truly something that no one could have predicted. Furthermore, the fact that no one has any idea of where Patty-Mae is, is an issue in itself. Her unknown whereabouts lead skeptics to do a little eyebrow raising. So the question is, will Chaz wiggle herself out of harm's way and reclaim her life. Or, will there be a new set of surprises awaiting her? Only time will tell!! Author's Note: This book contains extreme levels of sex and violence and should only be read by readers that thrive for excitement. Please take the proper approach to keep your euphoria from going haywire.
Book Synopsis Elements of Surprise by : Vera Tobin
Download or read book Elements of Surprise written by Vera Tobin and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2018-04-16 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do some surprises delight—the endings of Agatha Christie novels, films like The Sixth Sense, the flash awareness that Pip’s benefactor is not (and never was!) Miss Havisham? Writing at the intersection of cognitive science and narrative pleasure, Vera Tobin explains how our brains conspire with stories to produce those revelatory plots that define a “well-made surprise.” By tracing the prevalence of surprise endings in both literary fiction and popular literature and showing how they exploit our mental limits, Tobin upends two common beliefs. The first is cognitive science’s tendency to consider biases a form of moral weakness and failure. The second is certain critics’ presumption that surprise endings are mere shallow gimmicks. The latter is simply not true, and the former tells at best half the story. Tobin shows that building a good plot twist is a complex art that reflects a sophisticated understanding of the human mind. Reading classic, popular, and obscure literature alongside the latest research in cognitive science, Tobin argues that a good surprise works by taking advantage of our mental limits. Elements of Surprise describes how cognitive biases, mental shortcuts, and quirks of memory conspire with stories to produce wondrous illusions, and also provides a sophisticated how-to guide for writers. In Tobin’s hands, the interactions of plot and cognition reveal the interdependencies of surprise, sympathy, and sense-making. The result is a new appreciation of the pleasures of being had.

Download or read book On War written by Carl von Clausewitz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2004-11 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On War is one of the most important books ever written on the subject of war. Clausewitz, a Prussian officer who fought against the French during the Napoleonic Wars, sought to understand and analyse the phenomenon of war so that future leaders could conduct and win conflicts more effectively. He studied the human and social factors that affect outcomes, as well as the tactical and technical ones. He understood that war was a weapon of government, and that political purpose, chance, and enmity combine to shape its dynamics. On War continues to be read by military strategists, politicians, and others for its timeless insights. This abridged edition by Beatrice Heuser, using the acclaimed translation by Michael Howard and Peter Paret, selects the central books in which Clausewitz's views on the nature and theory of war are developed.

Book Synopsis Surprise at the Intersection of Phenomenology and Linguistics by : Natalie Depraz
Download or read book Surprise at the Intersection of Phenomenology and Linguistics written by Natalie Depraz and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2019-11-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surprise is treated as an affect in Aristotelian philosophy as well as in Cartesian philosophy. In experimental psychology, surprise is considered to be an emotion. In phenomenology, it is only addressed indirectly in phenomenology (Husserl, Heidegger, Levinas), with the important exception of Ricœur and Maldiney; it is reduced to a break in cognition by cognitivists (Dennett). Only recently was it broached in linguistics, with a focus on lexico-syntactic categories. As for the expression of surprise, it has been studied in connection with evidentiality in languages that encode surprise morphosyntactically. However, how surprise is encoded in languages that lack an evidential morphosyntactic system has been largely unexplored. This book provides new insights into the dynamics of surprise based on a heuristic hypothesis tested against the investigation of time, language and emotion. It is intended to arouse the interest of a multidisciplinary audience keen on crossing the disciplinary borders of phenomenology, cognitive sciences, and pragmatics. The theoretical approaches adopted in this collection of articles rely on experiments and corpus data. They advance knowledge by building on robust empirical results coming from psychology, microphenomenology, linguistics and physiology.
Book Synopsis Novelty, Information and Surprise by : Günther Palm
Download or read book Novelty, Information and Surprise written by Günther Palm and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-02 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised edition offers an approach to information theory that is more general than the classical approach of Shannon. Classically, information is defined for an alphabet of symbols or for a set of mutually exclusive propositions (a partition of the probability space Ω) with corresponding probabilities adding up to 1. The new definition is given for an arbitrary cover of Ω, i.e. for a set of possibly overlapping propositions. The generalized information concept is called novelty and it is accompanied by two concepts derived from it, designated as information and surprise, which describe "opposite" versions of novelty, information being related more to classical information theory and surprise being related more to the classical concept of statistical significance. In the discussion of these three concepts and their interrelations several properties or classes of covers are defined, which turn out to be lattices. The book also presents applications of these concepts, mostly in statistics and in neuroscience.

Book Synopsis Probability and Information by : David Applebaum
Download or read book Probability and Information written by David Applebaum and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-07-13 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This elementary introduction to probability theory and information theory is suitable as a textbook for beginning students in mathematics, statistics or computer science who have some knowledge of basic calculus. It provides a clear and systematic foundation to the subject; the concept of probability is given particular attention via a highly simplified discussion of measures on Boolean algebras. The theoretical ideas are then applied to practical areas such as statistical inference, random walks, statistical mechanics and communications modelling. Topics dealt with include discrete and continuous random variables, entropy and mutual information, maximum entropy methods, the central limit theorem and the coding and transmission of information. Many examples and exercises are included that illustrate how the theory can be applied, for example to information technology. Detailed solutions to most exercises are available electronically from the Cambridge WWW server.
Download or read book A Hero's Journey written by Chris Dooley and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Hero’s Journey Beyond Little Norway and Olympia Sports Camp is a compiled history of the Olympia Sports Camp in Huntsville, Ontario, through the lens of its founder and inspiration, Dave Grace, the hero of the book’s title. The hero’s journey of the title is Dave Grace’s adaptation of the writings and teaching of philosopher Joseph Campbell. The basic tenet of the Dave Grace’s hero’s journey is that heroes all go through a 12-step journey—from their own comfort zone to the unknown and all its challenges—to a new normal where the hero bestows knowledge learned on others in order to help them on their journey. Dave Grace’s foundational belief is that we are all heroes on our own path and who we become on our journey is more important than the accomplishments we achieve. A Hero’s Journey chronicles the people and places that make up the history of the camp, while also serving as an inspirational guidebook for readers to each become the hero of their own journey. This book also examines the history of the land on which the camp has been built, from its Indigenous origins to the European settlement of the 1800s, and to the use of the land by the Norwegian Air Force during World War II. The book takes readers on a journey through the various stages related to the development of the camp, first established in 1974. The book is built on a collection of stories related to mentorship, sports psychology, and community building, as well as interviews of past campers, coaches, and others with a longtime association with Olympia. With this book, author Chris Dooley honours Dave Grace and the many others who have been integral to the history of the camp and its land.
