Book excerpt: An eminent psychologist offers a major new theory of human cognition: movement, not language, is the foundation of thought When we try to think about how we think, we can't help but think of words. Indeed, some have called language the stuff of thought. But pictures are remembered far better than words, and describing faces, scenes, and events defies words. Anytime you take a shortcut or play chess or basketball or rearrange your furniture in your mind, you've done something remarkable: abstract thinking without words. In Mind in Motion, psychologist Barbara Tversky shows that spatial cognition isn't just a peripheral aspect of thought, but its very foundation, enabling us to draw meaning from our bodies and their actions in the world. Our actions in real space get turned into mental actions on thought, often spouting spontaneously from our bodies as gestures. Spatial thinking underlies creating and using maps, assembling furniture, devising football strategies, designing airports, understanding the flow of people, traffic, water, and ideas. Spatial thinking even underlies the structure and meaning of language: why we say we push ideas forward or tear them apart, why we're feeling up or have grown far apart. Like Thinking, Fast and Slow before it, Mind in Motion gives us a new way to think about how--and where--thinking takes place.

This book was released on 2015-11-08 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migration is not new. In recent decades however, human mobility has increased in numbers and scope and has helped fuel a global shift in the human population from predominantly rural to urban. Migration overall is a livelihood, investment and resilience strategy. It is affected by changes across multiple sectors and at varying scales and is affected by macro policies, transnational networks, regional conditions, local demands, political and social relations, household options and individual desires. Such enhanced mobility, changes in populations and communities in both sending and receiving areas, and the remittances that mobility generates, are key elements of current transitions that have both direct and indirect consequences for forests. Because migration processes engage with rural populations and spaces in the tropics, they inevitably affect forest resources through changes in use and management. Yet links between forests and migration have been overlooked too often in the literature on migration as well as in discussions about forest-based livelihoods. With a focus on landscapes that include tropical forests, this paper explores trends and diversities in the ways in which migration, urbanization and personal remittances affect rural livelihoods and forests.

Book excerpt: Mind-body wellness and fitness expert combines mantra, self-reflection, and movement into an accessible 14-day routine for manifesting your best self. Holistic wellness and fitness expert Erin Stutland harnesses all the body's mental, physical, and spiritual energy in her tri-fold approach to creating change. When you move your body while repeating mantras--speaking your desires aloud--manifesting is no longer a purely intellectual exercise or an occasional craft project. Instead, you are expressing your passion through your voice and your body, putting every ounce of your energy in service of what you want. Each chapter breaks down one mantra to use to focus on a key step to achieving your best self, including unearthing your desires, releasing resistance, and taking inspired action. Alongside each mantra, Stutland provides stories from her own life and those of her clients, a meditation or visualization, a journaling exercise, and an easy movement to accompany the mantra to help enhance its resonant power. And to put it all together, you are provided with a 14-day plan so you can design the life you want, infusing the power of movement, mantra, and self-reflection.

Book excerpt: The purpose of THIS book is to give the youth today a ground floor glimpse of some of the struggle and protest that happened in the past. I've tried to make this story lively, hands on and down to earth-so that maybe some young people today can get some ideas of how to organize people and themselves on a grass roots level to deal with the heartless killers and confidence men that run society today. Just HOW we should all organize ourselves now is a tricky question now that the communist regimes have long since been defeated or turned back into some form of state capitalist dictatorship. There is no new blueprint for human liberation that is very well worked out. Nevertheless, those of us who work for a living or are trying to get a job or make a decent life have got to form collectives; to patiently and thoughtfully collaborate and develop a strategy to take this society into an egalitarian direction. We have to try, against difficult odds to initiate a new movement that interests and engages the coming generations in struggling for human liberation. This way OUR descendants can say, "The ones who went before us fought so that we could have a better life." Hopefully, if we keep at it, new ways of waging class war and new ways of organizing egalitarian movements and societies will emerge.

Book excerpt: In 1973, Rick Hansen was a carefree teenager hitchhiking home from a fishing trip, a kid who lived and breathed sports. But after the truck he was riding in went out of control and crashed, Hansen was left a paraplegic. For some people that could have been the end. For Rick Hansen it was the beginning of a story that is at once sad and funny, heartbreaking and inspirational. Hansen takes you from the first painful days and frightening nights in hospital, through the gritty process of rehabilitation, to his return to competition as a world champion of wheelchair sports. It is the story of the Man in Motion tour—Rick Hansen’s incredible 24,901.55-mile wheelchair journey through 34 countries around the world. It is also the love story of Hansen and his wife, Amanda, a physiotherapist whom Hansen calls his “lifeline.” And it is a success story—Rick Hansen has raised millions of dollars for spinal cord research, rehabilitation and wheelchair sports as well as raised awareness about the disabled.

Book excerpt: The goal is to address the guilt that comes from a feeling of listlessness, the vague feeling of guilt that one might get when they play video games all day, or when they turn desperately towards drugs or parties, in attempts to silence the part of themselves that whispers that there must be something else to life.This sort of guilt cannot be removed by force of will, in most people. The trick to removing this sort of guilt, I think, is to start exploring that feeling that there must be something else to life, that there must be something more to do---and either find something worth working towards, or find that there really isn't actually anything missing. This first sort of listless guilt, I think, comes from someone who wants to find something else to do, and hasn't yet.Unfortunately, addressing this sort of guilt isn't as easy as just finding a hobby. In my experience, this listless guilt tends to be found in people who have fallen into the nihilistic trap---people who either believe they can't matter, or who believe that no one can matter. It tends to be found in people who believe that humans only ever do what they want, that nothing is truly "better'' than anything else, that there is no such thing as altruism, that "morality'' is a pleasant lie---that class of beliefs is the class that I will address first, starting with the Allegory of the Stamp Collector...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian responses to global migration are as loud as they are numerous. With voices evoking either the injunction to love the stranger or a commitment to the rule of law, this polarized cacophony has become yet another theater in the culture war. But migration is not an idea. It is not an abstraction. Migration is about people, present in our midst or encountered at our edges. Their presence at our borders forces us to consider the core values we want most to uphold, and the stories that taught us those values in the first place. In the United States, our most popular origin stories tell of a nation that fought off tyranny and committed itself to liberty, democracy, and the dream of an unencumbered pursuit of happiness, of a life lived on one's own terms. But is this the whole story? Whose perspectives have shaped the stories we tell, and which perspectives have been ignored? Theology in Motion tracks the story of the United States--how it formed and how it came to dominate the land that now rests between its borders--to consider more fully what type of nation the US has been and the type of global neighbor it has chosen to be. From a Christian moral perspective, this history helps us look to the future by analyzing how our past choices have left us with present responsibilities. Taking these responsibilities seriously and pursuing more just global relationships provides a way forward in which all people might participate and to which Christians are called.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doug has penned Money in Motion: A Back to Basics Approach to Build Your Business. In addition to providing a step-by-step guide to building sales, the appendixes include a Kick Start Checklist, scripts, questionnaires, call sheets, worksheets for projects, seminars, value proposition and presentations. Everything you need to kick start your business! Doug's philosophy and approach to success is a fundamental belief that "The Relationship Curve" - building relationships of trust and patiently positioning yourself for the time when there is a need and "money goes in motion", drives the business development process. At this moment you must have a value proposition and presentation that will land the customer - many times you do not get a second chance. "Productivity is achieving the greatest results in the shortest period of time." In Doug's book, he explains how to get back to basics. How to be organized; focused; how to find people just like your best customers; how to meet them and start a relationship with them; how to build a relationship of trust with a powerful and systematic "slow drip"; and how finally to articulate your value proposition and build a dynamic presentation template that lands the customer every time. "Leverage is achieving the greatest results with the least amount of effort." Doug discusses how to use projects to get many things done; how to leverage time with seminars and networking activities; how to leverage relationships through Centers of Influences; and how to leverage efforts by finding other people to execute activities for you. Most importantly, Doug shows how applying some simple fundamental principles and focusing short bursts of high energy into them over a period of days, weeks, months and years builds a momentum which takes your business to new heights of success.
