As usual it is a mind blowing collection of great value to those of us who care where the future is taking us.</p> <p>To grapple with the information contained in this expansion of the human potential over the next four decades takes an open mind and a willingness to accept at least some of what you may not understand. </p> <p>I know some basic things about nanotech and the biotech revolution. I am as familiar with computing as any person who has participated in the development of that technology for the last forty years. But this book expanded my breadth and depth of knowledge dramatically. It is a heady experience and one well worth living if you like to know where humanity may be headed.</p> <p>Buy it, borrow it, steal it, (apologies to Ray) but get your hands on it and read this book. It will help you understand the changes that are approaching and help you benefit from them rather than simply being run over by them. They are headed our way and moving at exponential speeds already. We do need to be ready for them.</p> <p>Here is the publisher's take:</p> <blockquote> <p>The great inventor and futurist Ray Kurzweil is one of the best-known and controversial advocates for the role of machines in the future of humanity. </p> <p>In his latest, thrilling foray into the future, he envisions an event--the "singularity"--in which technological change becomes so rapid and so profound that our bodies and brains will merge with our machines. </p> <p>The Singularity Is Near portrays what life will be like after this event--a human-machine civilization where our experiences shift from real reality to virtual reality and where our intelligence becomes nonbiological and trillions of times more powerful than unaided human intelligence. In practical terms, this means that human aging and pollution will be reversed, world hunger will be solved, and our bodies and environment transformed by nanotechnology to overcome the limitations of biology, including death. We will be able to create virtually any physical product just from information, resulting in radical wealth creation. </p> <p>In addition to outlining these fantastic changes, Kurzweil also considers their social and philosophical ramifications. With its radical but optimistic view of the course of human development, The Singularity Is Near is certain to be one of the most widely discussed and provocative books of 2005.</p> <p>del.icio.us Tags: <a href="http://del.icio.us/popular/ebook">ebook</a>,<a href="http://del.icio.us/popular/e-books">e-books</a>,<a href="http://del.icio.us/popular/kurzweil">kurzweil</a>,<a href="http://del.icio.us/popular/nano%20technology">nano technology</a>,<a href="http://del.icio.us/popular/ebooks%20about%20science">ebooks about science</a></p> <div class="wlWriterSmartContent" id="scid:0767317B-992E-4b12-91E0-4F059A8CECA8:212c9a8d-2e10-4f5f-9956-bf78eed16130" style="padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-top: 0px">Technorati Tags: <a href="http://technorati.com/tags/e-book" rel="tag">e-book</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/eBook" rel="tag">eBook</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/ebooks%20about%20science" rel="tag">ebooks about science</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/Kurzweil" rel="tag">Kurzweil</a></div></blockquote> eBooks About Everythinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14037031797540661324noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998577386471857245.post-1272146822187099132008-07-09T09:51:00.001-07:002008-07-09T09:51:26.664-07:0077 Surprising Health Benefits of Yoga<p><strong>By Alisa Miller</strong></p> <p>Over the past several years, yoga has experienced an upsurge in popularity in the western world. While many associate yoga with new age mysticism or the latest fad at the gym, yoga is actually an ancient practice that connects the mind, body, and spirit through body poses, controlled breathing, and meditation. The practice of yoga has many health benefits associated with it, so read below to discover 77 benefits to be gained.</p> <p><strong>Health Benefits Within</strong></p> <p>From lowering blood pressure to increasing pain tolerance, the following health benefits can all be discovered within the body.</p> <ol> <li><strong>Blood pressure</strong>. A consistent yoga practice decreases blood pressure through better circulation and oxygenation of the body. <a href="http://yoga-activities.blogspot.com/2007/12/high-blood-pressure-hypertension.html">These two exercises</a> can help lower blood pressure. </li> <li><strong>Pulse rate</strong>. A slower <a href="http://www.cchs.net/health/health-info/docs/0900/0984.asp?index=5508">pulse rate</a> indicates that your heart is strong enough to pump more blood with fewer beats. Regularly practicing yoga provides a lower pulse rate. </li> <li><strong>Circulation</strong>. Yoga improves blood circulation. By transporting nutrients and oxygen throughout your body, yoga practice provides healthier organs, skin, and brain. </li> <li><strong>Respiratory</strong>. Like the circulatory system, a lower respiratory rate indicates that the lungs are working more efficiently. Yoga decreases the respiratory rate through a combination of controlled breathing exercises and better fitness. </li> <li><strong>Cardiovascular endurance</strong>. A combination of lower heart rate and improved oxygenation to the body (both benefits of yoga) results in higher <a href="http://www.new-fitness.com/exercise/benefits.html">cardiovascular endurance</a>. </li> <li><strong>Organs</strong>. Yoga practice massages internal organs, thus improving the ability of the body to prevent disease. Additionally, an experienced yoga practitioner becomes better attuned to her body to know at first sign if something isn’t functioning properly, thereby allowing for quicker response to head off disease. </li> <li><strong>Gastrointestinal.</strong> Gastrointestinal functions have been shown to improve in both men and women who practice yoga. </li> <li><strong>Immunity</strong>. Yoga practice has frequently been correlated with a stronger immune system. Read <a href="http://www.myyogaonline.com/healthy_living_161_Building_Your_Immune_System.html">this article</a> for more on the immune system and yoga, including some poses that specifically work on areas of immunity. </li> <li><strong>Pain</strong>. Pain tolerance is much higher among those who practice yoga regularly. In addition to pain tolerance, some instances of chronic pain, such as back pain, are lessened or eliminated through yoga (see below for more on back pain). </li> <li><strong>Metabolism</strong>. Having a balanced metabolism results in maintaining a healthy weight and controlling hunger. Consistent yoga practice helps find the balance and creates a more efficient metabolism. </li> </ol> <p><strong>Health Benefits Without</strong></p> <p>Just as many health benefits occur within the body, there are many benefits that can actually be experienced from without the body. From better sleep to more energy and strength, this list provides several benefits found on the outside of the body.</p> <ol> <li><strong>Aging</strong>. Yoga stimulates the detoxification process within the body. <a href="http://www.tandurust.com/alternative-therapies/detoxification-therapy.html">Detoxification</a> has been shown to delay aging, among many other health benefits. </li> <li><strong>Posture</strong>. The very nature of yoga teaches the practitioner how to hold and control one’s body in a more healthful position. Through consistent practice, your posture will improve so that you look more confident and healthy. </li> <li><strong>Strength</strong>. One of the premises of yoga is that you are using the weight of your own body for overall strength. Find out more about how yoga works as an excellent method of strength training in <a href="http://body.aol.com/fitness/yoga/strength">this article</a>. </li> <li><strong>Energy</strong>. Regular yoga practice provides consistent energy. In fact, most yogis state that when you perform your yoga correctly, you will feel energized after your yoga session rather than tired. </li> <li><strong>Weight</strong>. The benefits of a better metabolism along with the exercise of yoga work to keep your <a href="http://emilycarlsonyoga.blogspot.com/2008/01/why-yoga-works-when-diets-often-fail.html">weight in check</a>. Additionally, the stretching of muscles longwise helps to reduce the amount of cellulite that can build around muscles. </li> <li><strong>Sleep</strong>. Because of the many benefits to both body and mind that a yoga routine can provide, many find that their sleep is much better. Read <a href="http://www.revolutionhealth.com/blogs/bradlyjacobsmdmph/yoga-for-sleep--8643">here</a> for more on sleep and yoga, as well as some positions for helping induce sleep. </li> <li><strong>Balance</strong>. An integral part of the yoga practice is balance and control over your body. With a consistent practice, you will find that your overall balance will improve outside the yoga class. </li> <li><strong>Integrated function of the body</strong>. Yoga is <a href="http://www.yoga.am/the-zen-of-yoga/">derived from Sanskrit and means</a> "to join together and direct one’s attention." This is exactly what happens to your body after you start practicing yoga. Yogis find that their body works together much better, resulting in more graceful and efficient body movements. </li> <li><b>Body Awareness</b>: Doing yoga will give you an increased awareness of your own body. You are often called upon to make small, subtle movements to improve your alignment. Over time, this will increase your level of comfort in your own body. This can lead to improved posture and greater self-confidence. </li> <li><strong>Core strength</strong>. With a strong body core, you receive better posture and overall body strength. A strong core helps heal and reduce injuries. Read how this swimmer <a href="http://swimming.about.com/od/drylandexercise/l/aa_cope_yoga.htm">uses yoga</a> to strengthen her core and improve her swimming. </li> <li><strong>Sexuality</strong>. Yoga can improve your sexuality through better control, more relaxation, and more self-confidence. Read more about the yoga and sexuality connection <a href="http://yoga.iloveindia.com/yoga-benefits/yoga-and-sex.html">here</a>. </li> </ol> <p><strong>Emotional Health Benefits</strong></p> <p>Due to the strong mind-body connection of yoga, there are many emotional benefits to be gained from a consistent yoga practice. Find out how yoga can help improve emotional health with this list.</p> <ol> <li><strong>Mood</strong>. Overall well-being improves with yoga practice. The combination of creating a strong mind-body connection, creating a healthy body, and focusing inward can all lead to improvement in your mood. </li> <li><b>Stress Reduction</b>. The concentration required during yoga practice tends to focus your attention on the matter at hand, thereby reducing the emphasis you may have been putting on the stress in your life. Read more about yoga and stress management <a href="http://watersana.typepad.com/watersana/2008/04/teaching-yoga-f.html">here</a>. </li> <li><strong>Anxiety</strong>. One benefit to the controlled breathing used in yoga is a reduction in anxiety. <a href="http://www.ayurvedictalk.com/application-of-yoga-in-relieving-anxiety/197/">Learn more</a> about how you can use yoga breathing to reduce your anxiety. </li> <li><strong>Depression</strong>. <a href="http://psychology.suite101.com/article.cfm/yoga_and_your_health">Some believe</a> the negative feelings that you may be repressing are brought to the surface during some types of yoga exercise. When this happens, the negative energy is no longer stuck within you, but released through exercise. Regularly releasing this negativity leads to a reduction of depression in many people. </li> <li><strong>Self-acceptance</strong>. Focusing inward and realizing through your yoga practice that perfection is not the goal, self-acceptance begins to take over. <a href="http://reading-rolf-yoga.blogspot.com/2006/01/do-we-stand-in-our-own-way.html">This post</a> describes how success is not measured by perfectionism in yoga. </li> <li><strong>Self-control</strong>. The controlled movements of yoga teach you how to translate that self-control to all aspects of your life. </li> <li><strong>Mind-body connection</strong>. Few other exercises offer the same mind-body connection that yoga does. As you match your controlled breathing with the movements of your body, you retrain your mind to find that place of calm and peace that long-time yogis know. </li> <li><strong>Positive outlook on life</strong>. Continued practice of yoga results in a balance of many hormones and nervous system, which brings about a more stable, positive approach to life. </li> <li><strong>Hostility</strong>. Most yogis report a huge reduction in the amount of hostility they feel as well as a sense of control when anger flares. This calm effect is likely from the relaxation and meditation that is incorporated in their yoga practice that leads to an overall calming of the nervous system. Less hostility means lower blood pressure and stress and a healthier approach to life. </li> <li><strong>Concentration</strong>. Researchers <a href="http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/73962.php">have shown</a> that as little as eight weeks of yoga practice can result in better concentration and more motivation. </li> <li><strong>Memory</strong>. Improved blood circulation to the brain as well as the reduction in stress and improved focus results in a better memory. </li> <li><strong>Attention</strong>. The attention required in yoga to maintain the structured breathing in conjunction with yoga poses sharpens the ability to keep a sharp focus on tasks. </li> <li><strong>Social skills</strong>. In yoga, you learn the interconnectedness of all of life. Your yoga practice soon evolves from a personal journey to one connecting to to the community at large where your social skills improve along with your yoga practice. </li> <li><strong>Calmness</strong>. Concentrating so intently on what your body is doing has the effect of bringing calmness. Yoga also introduces you to meditation techniques, such as watching how you breathe and disengagement from your thoughts, which help calm the mind. </li> </ol> <p><strong>Body Chemistry</strong></p> <p>Several aspects of body chemistry such as glucose levels and red blood cells are affected by yoga. Learn how you can improve your body chemistry through yoga.</p> <ol> <li><strong>Cholesterol</strong>. Yoga practice lowers cholesterol through increased blood circulation and burning fat. Yoga practice is a great tool to fight against harmful cholesterol levels. </li> <li><strong>Lymphatic system</strong>. Your lymphatic system boosts your immunity and reduces toxins in your body. The only way to get your lymphatic system flowing well is by movement. The specific movements involved in yoga are particularly well-suited for promoting a <a href="http://yogapilates.suite101.com/article.cfm/yoga_anatomy_the_lymphatic_system">strong lymphatic system</a>. </li> <li><strong>Glucose</strong>. There is evidence to suggest that yoga may lower blood <a href="http://www.liebertonline.com/doi/abs/10.1089/acm.2007.0679">glucose</a> levels. </li> <li><strong>Sodium</strong>. As does any good exercise program, yoga reduces the sodium levels in your body. In today’s world of processed and fast foods that are full of sodium, lessening these levels is a great idea. </li> <li><strong>Endocrine functions</strong>. Practicing yoga helps to regulate and control hormone secretion. An improved endocrine system keeps hormones in balance and promotes better overall physical and emotional health. </li> <li><strong>Triglycerides</strong>. Triglycerides are the chemical form of fat in the blood, and elevated levels can indicate a risk for heart disease and high blood pressure. A recent study shows that yoga can lead to "significantly lower" levels of triglycerides. Read more about the results of that study <a href="http://in.reuters.com/article/health/idINSAT87408420071228">here</a>. </li> <li><strong>Red blood cells</strong>. Yoga has been shown to increase the level of red blood cells in the body. Red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen through the blood, and too few can result in anemia and low energy. </li> <li><strong>Vitamin C</strong>. Vitamin C helps boost immunity, helps produce collagen, and is a powerful antioxidant; and a yoga regimen can increase the vitamin C in your body. </li> </ol> <p><strong>Exercise Health Benefits</strong></p> <p>As a form of exercise, yoga offers benefits that are sometimes not easily found among other exercise regimens. All of the following gains are benefits to practicing yoga.</p> <ol> <li><strong>Low risk of injury</strong>. Due to the low impact of yoga and the controlled aspect of the motions, there is a very low risk of injury during yoga practice compared to other forms of exercise. </li> <li><strong>Parasympathetic Nervous System</strong>. In many forms of exercise, the sympathetic nervous system kicks in, providing you with that fight-or-flight sensation. Yoga does the opposite and stimulates the <a href="http://www.abc-of-yoga.com/yoga-and-health/yoga-for-nervous-system.asp">parasympathetic nervous system</a>. The parasympathetic system lowers blood pressure and slows the pace of your breathing, which allows relaxation and healing. </li> <li><strong>Muscle tone</strong>. Consistently practicing yoga leads to better muscle tone. </li> <li><strong>Subcortex</strong>. Subcortical regions of brain are associated with well-being, and yoga is thought to dominate the subcortex rather than the cortex (where most exercise dominates). </li> <li><strong>Reduced oxygen consumption</strong>. Yoga consumes less oxygen than traditional exercise routines, thereby allowing the body to work more efficiently. </li> <li><strong>Breathing</strong>. With yoga, breathing is more natural and controlled during exercise. This type of breathing provides more oxygen-rich air for your body and also provides more energy with less fatigue. </li> <li><strong>Balanced workout of opposing muscle groups</strong>. As with all of yoga, balance is key. If a muscle group is worked in one direction, it will also be worked in the opposite direction to maintain balance. This balance results in a better overall workout for the body. </li> <li><strong>Non-competitive</strong>. The introspective and self-building nature of yoga removes any need of competition in the exercise regimen. With the lack of competition, the yogi is free to work slowly to avoid any undue injury as well as promote a more balanced and stress-free workout. </li> <li><strong>Joint range of motion</strong>. A study at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine indicated that joint range of motion was improved by participants who practiced yoga. </li> <li><strong>Eye-hand coordination</strong>. Without practice, eye-hand coordination diminishes. Yoga maintains and improves eye-hand coordination. </li> <li><strong>Dexterity</strong>. The strong mind-body connection and flexibility gained from yoga leads to grace and skill. </li> <li><strong>Reaction time</strong>. <a href="http://www.healthandyoga.com/html/research_papers/gitananda/mbs/mbs.asp">Research</a> done in India shows that reaction time can be improved with specific yoga breathing exercises in conjunction with an already established yoga practice. The improvement was attributed to the faster rate of processing and improved concentration gained from yoga. </li> <li><strong>Endurance</strong>. Working the entire body, yoga improves endurance and is frequently used by endurance athletes as a supplement to their sport-specific training. </li> <li><strong>Depth perception</strong>. Becoming aware of your body and how it moves, as one does in yoga practice, leads to increased depth perception. </li> </ol> <p><strong>Disease Prevention</strong></p> <p>Studies indicate that following a consistent yoga practice can help prevent the following diseases.</p> <ol> <li><strong>Heart disease</strong>. Yoga reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, keeps off weight, and improves cardiovascular health, all of which lead to reducing your risk of heart disease. </li> <li><strong>Osteoporosis</strong>. It is well documented that weight-bearing exercise strengthens bones and helps prevent osteoporosis. Additionally, yoga’s ability to lower levels of cortisol may help keep calcium in the bones. </li> <li><strong>Alzheimer’s</strong>. A new <a href="http://blogs.yogajournal.com/yogabuzz/2007/06/this_is_your_brain_on_yoga_1.html">study</a> indicates that yoga can help elevate brain gamma-aminobutyric (GABA) levels. Low GABA levels are associated with the onset of Alzheimer’s. Meditation like that practiced in yoga has also been shown to <a href="http://www.yogajournal.com/health/95">slow the progression</a> of Alzheimer’s. </li> <li><strong>Type II diabetes</strong>. In addition to the glucose reducing capabilities of yoga, it is also an excellent source of physical exercise and stress reduction that, along with the potential for <a href="http://blog.worldvillage.com/health/practise_yoga_to_reduce_blood_sugar_levels.html">yoga to encourage insulin production</a> in the pancreas, can serve as an excellent preventative for type II diabetes. </li> </ol> <p><strong>Symptom Reduction or Alleviation</strong></p> <p>While this list is not comprehensive, the following diseases or disorders can all be helped by maintaining a yoga practice.</p> <ol> <li><b>Carpal tunnel syndrome</b>. Individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome who practiced yoga showed greater improvement than those who wore a splint or received no treatment at all. Researchers saw improved grip strength and reduction of pain in the study participants. </li> <li><b>Asthma</b>. There is some evidence to show that reducing symptoms of <a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/script/main/art.asp?articlekey=284">asthma</a> and even reduction in asthma medication are the result of regular yoga. </li> <li><strong>Arthritis</strong>. The slow, deliberate movement of yoga poses coupled with the gentle pressure exerted on the joints provides an excellent exercise to relieve arthritis symptoms. Also, the stress relief associated with yoga loosens muscles that tighten joints. </li> <li><strong>Multiple sclerosis</strong>. According to <a href="http://www.yogasite.com/ms.htm">this article</a>, "yoga is now recognized as an excellent means of MS management." Additionally, National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine is funding a <a href="http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00010998?term=multiple+sclerosis+AND+yoga&rank=1">clinical trial</a> of yoga for treating multiple sclerosis. </li> <li><strong>Cancer</strong>. Those fighting or recovering from cancer frequently take advantage of the benefits that yoga provides. Cancer patients who practice yoga gain strength, raise red blood cells, experience less nausea during chemotherapy, and have a better overall well-being. </li> <li><strong>Muscular dystrophy</strong>. Using yoga in the early stages of muscular dystrophy can help return some physical functions. The practice of Pranayam yoga helped one teen regain many of his abilities lost to muscular dystrophy.

Exercise that does not elevate respiration, yet increase oxygen levels in the body is ideal for treating chronic bronchitis. Luckily, yoga can do this, as well as aerate the lungs and provide energy. </li> <li><strong>Epilepsy</strong>. Focusing on stress reduction, breathing, and restoring overall balance in the body are the focus of how yoga can help <a href="http://hinduism.about.com/library/weekly/aa122501a.htm">prevent epileptic seizures</a>. </li> <li><strong>Sciatica</strong>.

Studies of people with OCD have shown that practicing yoga has lead to a reduction in symptoms–resulting in less medication or medication no longer needed. </li> <li><strong>Constipation</strong>. Due to the practice of yoga and overall better posture, the digestive and elimination systems work more efficiently. If the practitioner also has a healthy diet, any constipation will be eliminated through yoga. </li> <li><strong>Allergies</strong>. Using a <a href="http://dailycupofyoga.wordpress.com/2007/03/04/dont-touch-my-neti-pot-the-ancient-practice-of-nasal-cleansing/">neti pot</a> to clear the sinuses is an ancient form of yoga to help reduce or eliminate allergy symptoms.

I was  a "Daddy's girl". My Dad had a long and lingering illness.  During his last couple of years we got the chance to redefine our relationship. </p> <p>Kelly Corrigan weaves together three compelling stories: her childhood, her fight with breast cancer, and her father's illness (cancer).  </p> <p>This is not a "disease of the month" memoir. This is a vital and honest account of family with all of it's divisions, loyalties and alliances.  Over the course of the book you get to enjoy and know the entire family:  Father, Mother, siblings, husband and children.  </p> <p>Kelly Corrigan is a graceful writer with a wonderful sense of the absurdity of life and family.  After all who else can make you <strong>that</strong> mad even while you depend on them?</p> <p>Corrigan captures the joy of childhood and the angst of the teen years.  She expresses the frustration of watching your parent rely on the familiar and trusted when better medical help is available.  The pain of being told to butt out after all the hard work of finding a new therapy, medication or physician.  The anger at the "well spouse" (her Mother) as they try to hide how bad things really are.</p> <p>Her story underlines the importance of family, friends and laughter in the process of acceptance and recovery.  </p> <p>Read this book!  It doesn't matter if you are an Easterner from Philly, a Californian or an Irish Catholic.  You don't have to come from a large family.  You don't need to have cancer or have someone in your family who has cancer.  This is a story with the universal themes of hope, healing and letting go.  </p> <p>The official book information:</p> <blockquote> <p>"<em>The thing you need to know about me is that I am George Corrigan's daughter, his only daughter." So begins this beautifully written memoir, in which Kelly Corrigan intertwines her own story with that of her larger-than-life, Irish-American, born-salesman father's, and illustrates both an unbelievably powerful and healing father/daughter relationship and the unbreakable bonds of family. Writing with candor and a surprising amount of graceful humor, Kelly alternates the tale of growing up Corrigan with her life and her father's today, as they each-successfully, for now-battle cancer. Throughout, she explores the framework of illness and what it means when the one person who has been your source of strength is in need of some himself. Uplifting without shying away from the realities of life with cancer, this highly personal story ultimately examines the universal theme of family, both those we create and those that created us. The Middle Place is about the bittersweet moment between childhood and adulthood-when you're a devoted wife and mother, but you'll always be daddy's girl. In fresh, insightful prose, Kelly explores and ultimately embraces that "middle place," bringing to light the wonderful opportunity of coming to know who you are and where you truly belong.  Use Coupon Code LIBMR8 at Checkout to receive a Discount on this eBook Title.</em></p> </blockquote> <div class="wlWriterSmartContent" id="scid:0767317B-992E-4b12-91E0-4F059A8CECA8:02d930b8-6fbf-46f9-ba8a-0772956c5878" style="padding-right: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-top: 0px">Technorati Tags: <a href="http://technorati.com/tags/ebook" rel="tag">ebook</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/e-book" rel="tag">e-book</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/ebooks%20about%20medicine" rel="tag">ebooks about medicine</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/cancer" rel="tag">cancer</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/The%20Middle%20Place" rel="tag">The Middle Place</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/Kelly%20Corrigan" rel="tag">Kelly Corrigan</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/ebook%20review" rel="tag">ebook review</a>,<a href="http://technorati.com/tags/ebook%20discounts" rel="tag">ebook discounts</a></div> eBooks About Everythinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14037031797540661324noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998577386471857245.post-5354869519323393722008-04-15T14:53:00.000-07:002008-04-15T14:56:15.427-07:00Study And Learn.

<p style="border:groove" "border-color:#3366FF"><b>'The Lonely Patient'</b> by <i>Michael Stein</i>. This is a must-read for doctors, medical students, caregivers, people living with pain/disease, and people who know someone living with pain/disease. Having lived with varying degrees of pain daily for the past fifteen years or so, I found this eBook to be an accurate representation of what living with pain is like. Michael Stein, in his research and interviews, has been able to capture in words the experience of pain - from both the insider and outsider's points of view. This is a wonderfully readable eBook for anyone who has been a patient or has provided care for them.<br><br>
<b>'The Bullet's Yaw'</b> by <i>Dustin W. Ballard</i>. A quick and powerful read full of thought-provoking, intriguing and galvanizing facts, reflections, and anecdotes. Anyone who is concerned about the state of health care today and increasing gun violence in our schools and communities should read this book and pass it on to others.

The bullet's path through steel slowed its velocity, causing it to tumble sideways when it collided with Mains, a phenomenon that ballistics experts call the "bullet's yaw."

It is a deeply felt novel about fractured families, dark, miserable secrets, how those secrets mold our adult lives in ways we cannot imagine or frequently manage. Dirty not only weaves a complex character and story line but pulls it all off while putting into print some of your steamiest fantasies.<br><br>
<b>'Are You Crazy?'</b> by <i>Andrew M. Williams.</i> Williams takes a serious subject and presents it in an entertaining way without doing insult to the seriousness of the matter at hand. He has culled questions from a variety of psychological tests and you are encouraged to answer these questions, score yourself, and analyze your responses based on certain criteria. These "quizzes" are generally "subjective" in nature, that is, they deal with what is called the "affective" domain rather than the "cognitive" domain of human existence. Did I just say all that?

What is most significant about this work is its exploration of the veils that our culture and its members live with, and what could be beyond them. It summarizes the concept of Flow and then takes us beyond into what we can actually do in communities to make a difference in the evolutionary epic. I find this book to be very practical.<br><br>
<b>'Thoughts From The Heart Of The Soul'</b> by <i>Gary Zukav</i>. I keep a copy of this eBook on my computer. Almost every single day I randomly flip to another page and read its message. I am amazed to find how many times I end up flipping to the same page! I am convinced that this book is helping me to face life's issues every time I look at it. A very inspirational book! This book is an excellent meditative companion for those who have read Gary Zukav's other books--"Seat of the Soul," "The Heart of the Soul," and "The Mind of the Soul" as well as "Soul Stories" and "The Dancing Wu Li Masters."

The Family That Couldn't Sleep tells the thought provoking story of an emerging medical mystery that is likely to affect all of us in our lifetime. Woven into the story are fascinating details regarding the history, politics and evolving research of a potential health related epidemic in our country. Max is able to communicate a complex disease phenomena in a gripping fashion that is also accessible to lay people such as myself...medical degree not required!<br>
<b>'The Emotion Machine:'</b> by <i>Marvin Minsky</i>. Humans can of course think in multiple domains. Indeed, a good human chess player can also be a good mathematician or a good chef. The ability to think in multiple domains has been christened as "commonsense" by many psychologists and professional educators, and those skeptical of the possibility of machine intelligence. It is thought by many that in order for a machine to be considered as truly intelligent or even indeed to possess any intelligence at all, it must possess "commonsense", in spite of the vague manner in which this concept is frequently presented in both the popular and scientific literature.

He argues persuasively that emotions, intuitions, and feelings are not distinct things, but different ways of thinking. By examining these different forms of mind activity, Minsky says, we can explain why our thought sometimes takes the form of carefully reasoned analysis and at other times turns to emotion. He shows how our minds progress from simple, instinctive kinds of thought to more complex forms, such as consciousness or self-awareness.</div>

<p style="border:groove" "border-color:#3366FF">'Scent of Desire' by Rachel Herz. ... The nose knows. Pity olfaction, the least celebrated of the five senses: In one poll, people ranked smell as the sense they'd mind losing the least. But, says Herz (Psychology/Brown Univ.), one of a handful of researchers doing groundbreaking work on the psychology of smell, the ability to smell the world around us shapes and informs every part of our lives-particularly our emotional existence. When robbed of a sense of smell-whether through head injury, severe depression or other cause-we lose a vital connection to the material world and its sensual pleasures. In thoughtful and accessible writing, Herz explains why it is that smells act as such direct conduits to emotional memories. Herz explains "why we smell" is perhaps the most fascinating. Smell not only underlies the ability to tell which meat is rotten and which is fresh, but also potently affects sexual attraction, and not as Coco Chanel might have thought (the grand dame of fashion once said, "Without perfume, women have no future."). Before you apply deodorant tomorrow morning, consider that it is in fact the natural body odors we spend so much time trying to cloak informs us of who we will choose to mate with and who we will avoid. A delightfully unexpected blend of personal anecdotes, pop-cultural erudition and scientific understanding.<br>
'Shyness' my Bernardo J. Carducci. This is the first book I've read on shyness and it's written very well. It seems that books like this are either written for an audience of Ph.D's who perform social research for a living, or for an audience with an 8th grade education. This book is neither - it delivers straight forward content in an articulate fashion that is both easy to grasp and enjoyable to read. I have tried several of the techniques described in the book and so far have had some pretty good luck. Those of you who know me don't know that I'm pretty shy. I guess my secrets out.

</div>
<div>The first and definitive book on the psychology of smell, The Scent of Desire traces the importance of smell in our lives, from nourishment to procreation to our relationships with the people closest to us and the world at large. Smell was the very first sense to evolve and is located in the same part of the brain that processes emotion, memory, and motivation. To our ancestors, the sense of smell wasn't just important, it was crucial to existence and it remains so today. Our emotional, physical, even sexual lives are profoundly shaped by both our reactions to and interpretations of different smells.</div>

This eBook educates the reader on how to navigate their medical records, how to determine if their physician is certain of a diagnosis and if the <i>scary things</i> have been effectively ruled out and most of all I found that Laura Nathason's method that any person, with or without prior medical knowledge, cold learn to look through their records and push aside the nearly 90% of impertinent material to find the things that play a key role in their health status. Whether you have any medical problems or know someone who does this book is a good resource to have at your fingertips.<br><br>
'Fit And Sexy For Life' Kathy Kaehler's book is full of good basic common sense about dealing with health and fitness in your forties, fifties and beyond. This eBook honestly discusses the physical and emotional problems many of us experience in our forties and beyond. 'Beyond' being the operative word here for I try not to use the "F" Word if I can help it. I found the information regarding exercise and nutrition to be very practical, and easy to fit into any lifestyle, which is the key to staying with any program.

<p style="border:groove" "border-color:#3366FF">Do you think we need to know Useless information when we get to Heaven? These two eBooks do not have much in common but I found them to be entertaining and thoughtful. I read these two titles based on the reviews. The book of Useless Information is just that... Useless but a fun read and it's nice to be able to casually throw in an interesting fact about a topic at a party or get together that most likely nobody knows about. I found it to boost my ego a bit for people perceive you as the guy/gal who knows things... Yeah ok... The topic that nobody really knows about is what is Heaven like. Sure there are multitudes of books out there that talk about near death experiences but I found that 90 Minutes in Heaven was sincere and believable. However, not enough to look forward to experience the glories of heaven (Yet). I can wait my turn, whenever that may be. I will say that after reading this eBook I now have some tools that will help if I loose a loved one or dealing with death. I recommend this eBook for it may put death or tragedy in a better place for you mentally.

While his body lay lifeless inside the ruins of his car, Piper experienced the glories of heaven, awed by its beauty and music. Ninety minutes after the wreck, while a minister prayed for him, Piper miraculously returned to life on earth with only the memory of inexpressible heavenly bliss. His faith in God was severely tested as he faced an uncertain and grueling recovery.

Did you know (or do you care)... --That fish scales are used to make lipstick? --Why organized crime accounts for ten percent of the United States's annual income? --The name of the first CD pressed in the United States? --The last year that can be written upside-down or right side-up and appear the same? --The shortest performance ever nominated for an Oscar? --How much Elvis weighed at the time of his death? --What the suits in a deck of cards represent? --How many Quarter Pounders can be made from one cow? --How interesting useless information can be? The Book of Useless Information answers these teasers and is packed with facts and figures that will captivate you--and anyone who shares your joy in the pursuit of pointless knowledge</div>

</div>
<div>The future belongs to a different kind of person with a different kind of mind: artists, inventors, storytellers-creative and holistic "right-brain" thinkers whose abilities mark the fault line between who gets ahead and who doesn't. Drawing on research from around the world, Pink outlines the six fundamentally human abilities that are absolute essentials for professional success and personal fulfillment-and reveals how to master them. A Whole New Mind takes readers to a daring new place, and a provocative and necessary new way of thinking about a future that's already here.</div>

</div>
<div>A healer removes the pain of a broken wrist in fifteen minutes. Another removes an ovarian tumor in a couple of weeks. Still another, from thousands of miles away, regenerates the nerves of an injured spine for a patient on whom the doctors had given up. These sound like tabloid stories but could they be true? They are just three out of millions of instances in which healers have claimed to manipulate energy fields to cure the body. Books on vibrational medicine, prayer, and spiritual healing present readers with an array of historical and current discoveries and techniques. But so far nobody has addressed the reality of healing through comprehensive scientific research. The Energy Healing Experiments fills that void. Harvard- educated Dr. Gary E. Schwartz provides scientific experiments and evidence to reveal the truth about the existence of energy fields and unlocks their potential for enhancing your health.</div>
