Book Description
"Blue Memories" is a composite accounting of the private and professional life of a New York City Police Officer, from early childhood until retirement. An honest and no holds barred story that was originally intended only for his immediate family. His troubled early years describe heartrending and heartwarming stories. The later years describe the professional life of a police officer's rise to Lieutenant in the largest police department in the world. The police stories are vivid and timeless; will shock you, surprise you and at times make you laugh. His varied career included duties in uniform, plainclothes, narcotics investigations and his assignment to the U.S. Attorney's Office for Southern District of New York to work under Rudy Giuliani investigating corruption in the New York Criminal Justice System. "Pat Pesce is a dedicated, inspired ex-cop chomping at the bit to share his NYPD memoir with the rest of the world. For those who enjoy police memories, especially those rooted in the bowels of New York City during the roughest of times, this is the book to read. When least expected, the reader will be howling at some of the humor." -Marshal Frank, Retired Captain Homicide, Miami-Dade Florida police department

Book Description
A scientifically groundbreaking, eloquent look at how we benefit -- psychologically, physically, and interpersonally -- when we practice gratitude. In Thanks!, Robert Emmons draws on the first major study of the subject of gratitude, of “wanting what we have,” and shows that a systematic cultivation of this underexamined emotion can measurably change people’s lives."--

Book Description
In this sweeping synthesis, Neal J. Cohen and Howard Eichenbaum bring together converging findings from neuropsychology, neuroscience, and cognitive science that provide the critical clues and constraints for developing a more comprehensive understanding of memory. Specifically, they offer a cognitive neuroscience theory of memory that accounts for the nature of memory impairment exhibited in human amnesia and animal models of amnesia, that specifies the functional role played by the hippocampal system in memory, and that provides further understanding of the componential structure of memory.The authors' central thesis is that the hippocampal system mediates a capacity for declarative memory, the kind of memory that in humans supports conscious recollection and the explicit and flexible expression of memories. They argue that this capacity emerges from a representation of critical relations among items in memory, and that such a relational representation supports the ability to make inferences and generalizations from memory, and to manipulate and flexibly express memory in countless ways. In articulating such a description of the fundamental nature of declarative representation and of the mnemonic capabilities to which it gives rise, the authors' theory constitutes a major extension and elaboration of the earlier procedural-declarative account of memory.Support for this view is taken from a variety of experimental studies of amnesia in humans, nonhuman primates, and rodents. Additional support is drawn from observations concerning the neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of the hippocampal system. The data taken from divergent literatures are shown to converge on the central theme of hippocampal involvement in declarative memory across species and across behavioral paradigms.

Book Description
"Counseling Persons with Parkinson's Disease offers a distinctive, practical, philosophically grounded, and person-centered approach to counseling those living with Parkinson's disease and other chronic illnesses. As a seasoned teacher of professional counselors who also lives with Parkinson's, the author demonstrates that chronic illness requires accepting and living with profound loss, but that this loss may lead to personal transformation and constructive ends, wherein one finds new hope, meaning, purpose, happiness, and passion for living. Equal parts memoir and professional resource, this book guides clinicians who give counsel, educators who teach counseling, and anyone wanting to know more about Parkinson's disease and providing support for those who live with it. Parkinson's disease; bereavement; grief, mourning; illness; counseling; task-centered; happiness"--

Book Description
Comprehensive coverage of memory test problems at chip, array and board level is provided in this book. For each of these test levels a class of fault models is introduced along with tests for these models. The author also presents algorithms of relevant fault models, together with proofs of their correctness. Special attention is given to why a fault model belongs to a particular class and why it is of interest. A software package, suitable for use on IBM PCs and compatibles, is also available which consists of a set of memory test programs and a simulation package demonstrating how the algorithms are executed and the relationship of the algorithm with the memory
