Book excerpt: «Apparentemente elastico e forse illusorio, il tempo è un enigma sia per i fisici che per i neuroscienziati. Dean Buonomano getta un ponte tra i due campi, maneggiando teorie e ricerche all’avanguardia mentre si confronta con la discrepanza tra il tempo fisico e quello «percepito». Il risultato è immensamente coinvolgente. » Nature ««Apparentemente elastico e forse illusorio, il tempo è un enigma sia per i fisici che per i neuroscienziati.

Queste funzioni sono essenziali non solo per la nostra vita quotidiana, ma per l’evoluzione stessa della specie: senza la capacità di «predire» il futuro, l’umanità non avrebbe mai fabbricato utensili o inventato l’agricoltura. Con uno stile accattivante, combinando elementi di biologia evoluzionistica, fisica e filosofia, Il tuo cervello è una macchina del tempo illumina concetti come il tempo soggettivo, lo spaziotempo e la relatività, fino a domandare infine: il passato, il presente e il futuro sono tutti ugualmente reali? La nostra percezione dello scorrere del tempo è un’illusione? Esiste il libero arbitrio, o il futuro è predeterminato? Lungo il percorso Buonomano svelerà tanto l’affascinante architettura del cervello umano quanto le intricate vicende del tempo stesso in un lavoro virtuosistico che ci porterà a una realizzazione sorprendente: sì, il nostro cervello è proprio una macchina del tempo.

This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beautifully written, eloquently reasoned…Mr. Buonomano takes us off and running on an edifying scientific journey." —Carol Tavris, Wall Street Journal In Your Brain Is a Time Machine, leading neuroscientist Dean Buonomano embarks on an "immensely engaging" exploration of how time works inside the brain (Barbara Kiser, Nature). The human brain, he argues, is a complex system that not only tells time, but creates it; it constructs our sense of chronological movement and enables "mental time travel"—simulations of future and past events. These functions are essential not only to our daily lives but to the evolution of the human race: without the ability to anticipate the future, mankind would never have crafted tools or invented agriculture. This virtuosic work of popular science will lead you to a revelation as strange as it is true: your brain is, at its core, a time machine.

Book excerpt: Il metodo infallibile per usare il 100% della tua intelligenza Nulla è più complesso e affascinante del nostro cervello Sappiamo bene che il nostro cervello tende a restringersi dopo aver superato i trent’anni. La buona notizia, però, è che quest’organo è in grado di adattarsi straordinariamente bene, riorganizzandosi e rinunciando ad alcune funzioni superflue. In questo sorprendente libro, Alexis Willett e Jennifer Barnett ci spiegano ciò che il nostro cervello può fare in condizioni ottimali e/o di crisi, ma soprattutto cosa si inventa quando le cose vanno decisamente male. Un affascinante viaggio tra casi clinici e scenari ipotetici, corredato da interviste a esperti del settore e studi scientifici basati sulle principali teorie del passato, del presente e del futuro. È il cervello la chiave per studiare il modo in cui invecchiamo? Siamo davvero all’apice della scala evolutiva o ci aspetta un futuro ancora più brillante per il nostro cervello? Tutte queste domande e molte altre ancora troveranno risposta tra queste pagine. «In questo libro, il lettore è guidato attraverso una serie di fatti scientifici in un modo quasi narrativo, che è allo stesso tempo divertente e in grado di informare.» «Queste pagine spiegano al meglio ricerche scientifiche complesse. E danno informazioni interessanti su come ottimizzare le funzioni del nostro cervello e mantenerlo sempre in forma.» Alexis Willett è direttrice e fondatrice del Punch Consulting, un centro di consulenza in strategie di comunicazione in ambito di salute.

Download or read book No Name written by Max Paleo and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-07-13 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La storia si incentra su un pacco che contiene un segreto in grado di destabilizzare una nazione, del quale un poco zelante postino si impossessa. Un uomo che è combattuto dall'interno da una vita precedente che rinnega, in una rivolta interiore che lo porterà a ribellarsi davanti alla morte del suo unico amico. Una fuga sulle strade di mezza Europa braccato dai Servizi Segreti di mezzo mondo. Un incontro inaspettato con una donna da proteggere. L'amore per quell'unico essere umano che lo giudica solo per ciò che è realmente. Fino alla svolta finale..., forse inaspettata per il lettore.Un romanzo d'avventura, di spionaggio, un Thriller, ed anche un po' Noir. Ma, come lei può ben capire fin dal nome della mia opera, o proprio dalla mancanza di un nome, è uno scritto di difficile collocazione. Se fossi costretto a paragonarlo, e paragonarmi, credo sceglierei Robert Ludlum come Maestro al quale mi sono, umilmente, ispirato.

Book Synopsis Swimming to Elba by : Silvia Avallone
Download or read book Swimming to Elba written by Silvia Avallone and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-06-14 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sensually charged novel about two girls growing up fast in a failing industrial town on the coast of Italy Anna and Francesca are on the brink of everything: high school, adulthood, and the edge of ambition in their provincial town. It’s summer in Piombino, Italy, and in their skimpy bathing suits, flaunting their newly acquired curves, the girls suddenly have everyone in their thrall. This power opens their imagination to a destiny beyond Piombino; the resort town of Elba is just a ferry ride away and yet they’ve never dared to go. Maybe the future is waiting for them there, or somewhere beyond. When their friendship suffers a blow, the girls set off on their own only to discover that their budding sexuality takes them further than they expect, though not as far as their dreams. As their choices take them to a painful crossroads, the girls must reconnect if they have any hope of escaping their small town destinies. In this poetic, prizewinning debut, Silvia Avallone captures the lost innocence of a generation. Harrowing yet ultimately redemptive, Swimming to Elba is a story about the power of friendship, and the way that family, friendship, and economics shape our world.
Book Synopsis Remote Vision by : Alessandro De Francesco
Download or read book Remote Vision written by Alessandro De Francesco and published by punctum books. This book was released on 2016 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remote Vision contains an English-Italian bilingual version of the most significant works in poetry and conceptual writing produced so far by Alessandro De Francesco. It is both a self-standing, coherent book and the most exhaustive collection of his poetry ever published in any language; containing a new version of the 2008 book Objects Displaced, the complete 2010 book Redefinition, the composite and still partially unpublished Cistern, the prose Foreign Body in Ascending Motion and the very recent work Inhabited Spaces. All the sections were rearranged for this publication by the author who decided that each section contain the complete English text followed by the complete Italian version, avoiding a face to face translation in order not to interrupt the flow of the reading. The whole book was beautifully translated by poets and Brown University alumni Belle Cushing and Dusty Neu, under the coordination of the acclaimed poet and Comparative Literature scholar Forrest Gander. This book condenses and proposes under a new light all the conceptual and emotional intensity of Alessandro De Francesco's poetry.
