Book excerpt: From the renowned neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author of Incognito comes the companion volume to the international PBS series about how your life shapes your brain, and how your brain shapes your life. "An ideal introduction to how biology generates the mind.... Clear, engaging and thought-provoking." —Nature Locked in the silence and darkness of your skull, your brain fashions the rich narratives of your reality and your identity. Join renowned neuroscientist David Eagleman for a journey into the questions at the mysterious heart of our existence. What is reality? Who are “you”? How do you make decisions? Why does your brain need other people? How is technology poised to change what it means to be human? In the course of his investigations, Eagleman guides us through the world of extreme sports, criminal justice, facial expressions, genocide, brain surgery, gut feelings, robotics, and the search for immortality. Strap in for a whistle-stop tour into the inner cosmos. In the infinitely dense tangle of billions of brain cells and their trillions of connections, something emerges that you might not have expected to see in there: you. Color illustrations throughout.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un libro straordinario sulla capacità del cervello di riconfigurare continuamente i propri circuiti «È dai tempi di Isaac Asimov che non abbiamo uno scienziato capace come David Eagleman di esprimere e applicare le sue idee in un modo così ricco e variegato.» The Wall Street Journal Riusciremo nel futuro a controllare un robot con il pensiero esattamente come controlliamo il movimento delle nostre dita? Che cosa hanno in comune una crisi di astinenza e un cuore spezzato? Che cos’è la memoria… e perché il nemico della memoria non è il tempo, bensì altre memorie? Come può imparare una persona non vedente a vedere con la lingua e un non udente a sentire con la pelle? Perché sogniamo di notte e in che modo questa attività ha a che fare con la rotazione della Terra? Le risposte a queste domande si trovano dietro ai nostri occhi. La tecnologia più sofisticata di cui mai potremo disporre si trova in quel chilo e mezzo di materia grigia racchiusa nella scatola cranica. E il potere incredibile del cervello non risiede nelle parti di cui è composto, ma nel modo incessante in cui queste parti si rimodellano e si trasformano perché il cervello è un sistema dinamico, adattabile e avido di informazioni: un oggetto basato sul cablaggio dal vivo, come David Eagleman dimostra e prova nei suoi laboratori dove conduce esperimenti negli ambiti più disparati, dalla sinestesia, ai sogni, ai device neurotecnologici indossabili. In L'intelligenza dinamica navigherete sulla superficie delle neuroscienze a bordo di teorie, esperimenti, aneddoti e metafore che hanno reso David Eagleman uno dei migliori divulgatori scientifici dei nostri tempi.

Book excerpt: Bruno Mancini, nato a Napoli nel 1943, risiede ad Ischia dall'eta di tre anni.A lui piace dire che l'origine della sua ispirazione o forse solo un iniziale impulso ancestrale ed istintivo, il vero basilare momento poetico della sua vita, si e concretizzato nell'incontro, propriamente fisico, tra i suoi sensi acerbi, infantili, e le secolari, immutate, tentazioni autoctone dell'Isola d'Ischia, dove le leggi della natura sembravano fluire ancora difese da valori di primitive protezioni.Alcuni brevi commenti ricavati dalle recensioni ai suoi libri: "Opera interessante per i contenuti e le tematiche affrontate, nonche per i valori estetici"" seria preparazione, corredata da rimarchevole fantasia. Lavoro meditato, armonioso di buon afflato poetico.""Una prosa lacerata e sfuggente""Lavoro intenso, vissuto nella profondita della sua composizione, fatta di toni e di immagini""Una voce nuova che chiama ad ascoltarla ed a giudicarla senza inibizioni, come liberamente essa e sviluppata"

Download or read book The Unnamed written by Joshua Ferris and published by Reagan Arthur Books. This book was released on 2010-01-18 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unnamed is a dazzling novel about a marriage, family, and the unseen forces of nature and desire that seem to threaten them both. He was going to lose the house and everything in it. The rare pleasure of a bath, the copper pots hanging above the kitchen island, his family-again he would lose his family. He stood inside the house and took stock. Everything in it had been taken for granted. How had that happened again? He had promised himself not to take anything for granted and now he couldn't recall the moment that promise had given way to the everyday. Tim Farnsworth is a handsome, healthy man, aging with the grace of a matinee idol. His wife Jane still loves him, and for all its quiet trials, their marriage is still stronger than most. Despite long hours at the office, he remains passionate about his work, and his partnership at a prestigious Manhattan law firm means that the work he does is important. And, even as his daughter Becka retreats behind her guitar, her dreadlocks and her puppy fat, he offers her every one of a father's honest lies about her being the most beautiful girl in the world. He loves his wife, his family, his work, his home. He loves his kitchen. And then one day he stands up and walks out. And keeps walking. The Unnamed is a heartbreaking story of a life taken for granted -- and what happens when that life is abruptly and irrevocably taken away.

Book excerpt: Nel cuore delle montagne austriache una baita disabitata custodisce un segreto. In Italia, a più di mille chilometri, una donna si sta lentamente distruggendo. Quel segreto, però, aspetta lei per essere svelato. È una storia un po' magica, piena di sofferenza ma anche di gioia di vivere, di mistero e di verità nascoste. Il tutto ambientato in un paesaggio fantastico, fatto di boschi, montagne e cieli limpidi, popolato da una variegata comunità montana. Dove finisce il brusio dell'uomo, ha inizio la melodia discreta di tutta la brulicante vita che popola boschi e montagne, mentre, fuori dal tempo e dalla realtà s'innalza, pura e inviolabile, una presenza bizzarra e magica che dedica il suo tempo a costruire fragili ed evanescenti sculture di nuvole. "È una persona molto speciale! A vederlo non gli si darebbe mezza lira, impiega il suo tempo in faccende apparentemente inutili ed evanescenti, ma a guardare bene costruisce sempre qualcosa d'importante e prezioso ed è da lui che nasce la poesia."

Book excerpt: A love story set in two countries in two radically different moments in time, bringing together a young man, his mother, a boa constrictor, and one capricious cat. In 1980s Yugoslavia, a young Muslim girl is married off to a man she hardly knows, but what was meant to be a happy match goes quickly wrong. Soon thereafter her country is torn apart by war and she and her family flee. Years later, her son, Bekim, grows up a social outcast in present-day Finland, not just an immigrant in a country suspicious of foreigners, but a gay man in an unaccepting society. Aside from casual hookups, his only friend is a boa constrictor whom, improbably—he is terrified of snakes—he lets roam his apartment. Then, during a visit to a gay bar, Bekim meets a talking cat who moves in with him and his snake. It is this witty, charming, manipulative creature who starts Bekim on a journey back to Kosovo to confront his demons and make sense of the magical, cruel, incredible history of his family. And it is this that, in turn, enables him finally, to open himself to true love—which he will find in the most unexpected place

This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a semiotic study of the re-elaboration of Christian narratives and values in a corpus of Italian novels published after the Second Vatican Council (1960s). It tackles the complex set of ideas expressed by Italian writers about the biblical narration of human origins and traditional religious language and ritual, the perceived clash between the immanent and transcendent nature and role of the Church, and the problematic notion of sanctity emerging from contemporary narrative.

Download or read book Sum written by David Eagleman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-02-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At once funny, wistful and unsettling, Sum is a dazzling exploration of unexpected afterlives—each presented as a vignette that offers a stunning lens through which to see ourselves in the here and now. In one afterlife, you may find that God is the size of a microbe and unaware of your existence. In another version, you work as a background character in other people’s dreams. Or you may find that God is a married couple, or that the universe is running backward, or that you are forced to live out your afterlife with annoying versions of who you could have been. With a probing imagination and deep understanding of the human condition, acclaimed neuroscientist David Eagleman offers wonderfully imagined tales that shine a brilliant light on the here and now.
