Book Description
At the age of twenty-eight, Marty Ellis is still a bachelor who graduated with a major in journalism and a minor in photojournalism. He enjoys his life with various girlfriends while knocking back drinks in bars, going out to dinner, and rolling in the sheets. Yet inevitably, he grows tired of these surface-level-only feelings, shells out his standard goodbye speech, and moves on. However, using only his body and saying sayonara to his love lifeaEUR(tm)s revolving door is not how he wants to live for the rest of his life. How will he ever know what true love feels like if he doesnaEUR(tm)t ascertain how to actually give it? In what way will he begin to be able to discover the whole package that runs beneath the surface of a woman? Unexpectedly, Marty is blindsided when his best friend invites him to leave New Jersey for a weekend trip. Lauren Morris is a beautiful thirty-two-year-old woman who, after graduating at the age of twenty-one with a masteraEUR(tm)s degree in business, took a huge leap of faith and purchased an old farmhouse in Vermont. After ten years of hard work and sweat equity, she has transformed it into a beautiful inn that has become extremely lucrative. But winter is fast approaching, and she is dreading that feeling of loneliness that is connected to darkened afternoons and long, empty nights. Will a man ever enter her life? One that she could love and perhaps be with until death due them part? After meeting Marty, Lauren begins to consider if this man might be the one she has been waiting for her whole life. But then again, she is older than he is; long distance relationships hardly ever work out; and sudden heartbreaking unforeseen events rock both of their worlds. And if they do fall in love, which one of them will have to make the ultimate sacrifice and give up what theyaEUR(tm)ve worked so hard to achieve in order to be together? With so many changes causing so many challenges, will they get through them together, or will one push the other away?

Rhythms of the Brain
Author: G. Buzsáki
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199828237
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
Studies of mechanisms in the brain that allow complicated things to happen in a coordinated fashion have produced some of the most spectacular discoveries in neuroscience. This book provides eloquent support for the idea that spontaneous neuron activity, far from being mere noise, is actually the source of our cognitive abilities. It takes a fresh look at the coevolution of structure and function in the mammalian brain, illustrating how self-emerged oscillatory timing is the brain's fundamental organizer of neuronal information. The small-world-like connectivity of the cerebral cortex allows for global computation on multiple spatial and temporal scales. The perpetual interactions among the multiple network oscillators keep cortical systems in a highly sensitive "metastable" state and provide energy-efficient synchronizing mechanisms via weak links. In a sequence of "cycles," György Buzsáki guides the reader from the physics of oscillations through neuronal assembly organization to complex cognitive processing and memory storage. His clear, fluid writing-accessible to any reader with some scientific knowledge-is supplemented by extensive footnotes and references that make it just as gratifying and instructive a read for the specialist. The coherent view of a single author who has been at the forefront of research in this exciting field, this volume is essential reading for anyone interested in our rapidly evolving understanding of the brain.
