Peter Lang Inc., Internation, 2001. Very Good. In Mind Fields, Thomas J. Cottle argues that the period known as adolescenc e is essentially a social construct influenced greatly by popular culture. To understand young people, therefore, is to recognize how the very conscio usness of adolescents is shaped by a culture, dominated by the entertainmen t industry, and the power of television and the computer, constantly urging them to turn away from the normal evolution of their personal and social l ives. In this fundamentally distracting environment, young people explore t heir consciousness, sharing it with others, as well as form their sense of identity, all the while having these most inner experiences affected as muc h by the culture as by their own temperaments and personalities. It is the culture that determines the forms of recognition and independence, as well as intimacy and attachment that adolescents must learn. In the end, the aut hor argues for the value of self-reflection as a critical… Leer más

Cambridge Univ Pr, 1999. Paperback. Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.The spine remains undamaged. Working memory is currently a "hot" topic in cognitive psychology and neuroscience. Because of their radically different scopes and emphases, however, comparing different models and theories and understanding how they relate to one another has been a difficult task. This work offers a much-needed forum for systematically comparing and contrasting existing models of working memory. It does so by asking each contributor to address the same comprehensive set of important theoretical questions on working memory. The answers to these questions elucidate the emerging general consensus on the nature of working memory among different theorists and clarify incompatible theoretical claims that must be resolved in future research. As such, this volume serves not only as a milestone that documents the state of the art in… Leer más

All of us have experienced creative connection, and glimpsed its power. Yet , for centuries, the myth of the lone genius has obscured the critical stor y of the power of collaboration. In Powers of Two, Joshua Wolf Shenk argues that creative pairs are the exemplars for innovation. Drawing on years of research on great partnerships in history - from Lennon and McCartney to Ma rie and Pierre Curie, plus hundreds more in fields including literature, po pular culture, art and business - Shenk identifies the common journey pairs take from the spark of initial connection, through the passage to a cognit ive 'joint identity' to competition and the struggle for power. Using scien tific and psychological insights, he uncovers new truths about epic duos - and sheds new light on the genesis of some of the greatest creative work… Leer más

This book examines what it means to lose a place forever and why we return, and keep on returning, to these places so large in our memories. It considers many lost towns, suburbs and homes: Darwin after Cyclone Tracy, the flooding of the town of Adaminaby in NSW, the inundation of Lake Pedder in Tasmania, bushfire at Macedon in Victoria, migration from other countries, the clearing of neighborhoods for freeways and the everyday circumstances that force people from their land. It establishes how important the places we live in are, and how much we grieve when we lose them.
