Book Description
Getting ahead in life is easy when you can stop time. Staying ahead is hard when your secrets have the power to destroy everything. I've been cheating at life and winning. My boss thinks I'm a genius, my bank account is stacked, and I haven't lost a poker game in my life. I thought I was the only one with this ability until I came across her. Smoking hot and snarky, Mira can freeze time as well. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. There's a whole community of people like us, the so-called Thought Readers. But just as I'm starting to fit in, I discover something that could turn them all against me. Something that could destroy my new world.

The Mind's Staircase
Author: Robbie Case
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1134744668
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
The shortcomings of Piaget's theory of intellectual development are well-known. Less clear is what sort of theory should be devised to replace it. This volume describes the current "main contenders," including neo-Piagetian, neo-connectionist, neo-innatist and sociocultural models. Its contributors conclude that none of these models are adequate because each one implies a view of the human mind which is either too general, too particular, or too modular. A collaborative program of research -- seven years in the making -- is then described, which gives support to a newly emerging synthesis of these various positions.

Nonlinear Brain Dynamics
Author: Cornelis J. Stam
Publisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781594548796
Category : Brain
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
At the beginning of the 21st century, understanding the brain has become one of the final frontiers of science. Hailed as the 'most complex object in the universe' the brain still defies a complete understanding of its workings, in particular in relation to consciousness and higher brain functions. Despite enormous scientific efforts, the question how the 'mere matter' of 1011 interacting nerve cells can give rise to the inner world of our subjective feelings still remains an enigma. However, in contrast to a few decades ago, when respectable neuroscience was not expected to deal with such questions, the search for brain/mind relationships has now become the focus of intense research. The central idea of this book: to understand the brain, we need to understand its dynamics.

Author: Dima Zales
Publisher: Mozaika LLC
ISBN: 1631420216
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
A new series about mind readers from a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author... Everyone thinks I’m a genius. Everyone is wrong. Sure, I finished Harvard at eighteen and now make crazy money at a hedge fund. But that’s not because I’m unusually smart or hard-working. It’s because I cheat. You see, I have a unique ability. I can go outside time into my own personal version of reality—the place I call “the Quiet”—where I can explore my surroundings while the rest of the world stands still. I thought I was the only one who could do this—until I met her. My name is Darren, and this is how I became entangled with all the Russians and learned that I’m a Reader.

The Ecological Brain
Author: Luis H. Favela
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1003830358
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
The Ecological Brain is the first book of its kind, using complexity science to integrate the seemingly disparate fields of ecological psychology and neuroscience. The book develops a unique framework for unifying investigations and explanations of mind that span brain, body, and environment: the NeuroEcological Nexus Theory (NExT). Beginning with an introduction to the history of the fields, the author provides an assessment of why ecological psychology and neuroscience are commonly viewed as irreconcilable methods for investigating and explaining cognition, intelligent behavior, and the systems that realize them. The book then progresses to its central aim: presenting a unified investigative and explanatory framework offering concepts, methods, and theories applicable across neural and ecological scales of investigation. By combining the core principles of ecological psychology, neural population dynamics, and synergetics under a unified complexity science approach, NExT offers a compressive investigative framework to explain and understand neural, bodily, and environmental contributions to perception-action and other forms of intelligent behavior and thought. The book progresses the conversation around the role of brains in ecological psychology, as well as bodies and environments in neuroscience. It is essential reading for all students of ecological psychology, perception, cognitive sciences, and neuroscience, as well as anyone interested in the history and philosophy of the brain/mind sciences and their state-of-the-art methods and theories.
