THIS BOOK is the first road of the series said to be created by SuFu. The inspiration for this series was a number of monks who had left the Temple not fully trained and therefore brought shame to Shaolin. 13 "toll gates" were then created guarded by master monks who would challenge anyone wanting to leave and thereby insure a high standard of skill.

Most of us have no idea what's really going on inside our heads. Yet brain scientists have uncovered details every business leader, parent, and teacher should know—such as the brain's need for physical activity to work at its best.How do we learn? What exactly do sleep and stress do to our brains? Why is multi-tasking a myth? Why is it so easy to forget—and so important to repeat new knowledge? Is it true that men and women have different brains?In Brain Rules, molecular biologist John Medina shares his lifelong interest in how the brain sciences might influence the way we teach our children and the way we work. In each chapter, he describes a Brain Rule—what scientists know for sure about how our brains work—and then offers transformative ideas for our daily lives. You will discover how:Exercise improves cognitionEvery brain is wired differentlyWe are designed never to stop learning and exploringMemories are volatile and susceptible to corruptionSleep is powerfully linked with the ability to learnVision trumps all of the other sensesStress changes the way we learnIn the end, you'll understand how your brain really works—and how to get the most out of it.

DETTAGLI SULL'OPERA... Il contenuto delle variazioni matematiche presentate da Gardner, si estende dalle figure di carta (sapete riflettere un esaesaflexagono?) alle capacità della memorizzazione matematica e alle speculazioni sul nastro di Moebius. Vi sono indovinelli ideati da alcuni matematici odierni per puro divertimento o nel corso di serie ricerche. Ogni giochetto contenuto nel libro, ogni paradosso o rompicapo è stato scelto per il suo interesse matematico ed è accompagnato da commenti che offrono all'autore il pretesto per illustrare alcuni aspetti del pensiero matematico. Martin Gardner (Tulsa, 21 ottobre 1914 – Norman, 22 maggio 2010) è stato un matematico, illusionista e divulgatore scientifico statunitense, con interessi variegati che spaziavano dalla filosofia allo scetticismo scientifico. Fu per molti anni il curatore della rubrica "Mathematical Games" sulla rivista Scientific American (la cui versione italiana era "Giochi Matematici", pubblicata su Le Scienze). (Wikipedia)

Produrre una fenomenologia dello spirito illuminista, questo è l'obiettivo di Cassirer. Egli non intende descrivere i risultati dell'Illuminismo, quanto piuttosto rendere palesi le forze operanti che hanno plasmato quei risultati dall'interno. Cassirer si prefigge di ricostruire una pura storia delle idee dell'epoca, indipendentemente dai singoli pensatori. In fatto di dottrine l'Illuminismo è rimasto legato, molto più di quanto si creda, ai secoli precedenti. Esso fu semplicemente l'erede di quei secoli perché sviluppò e chiarì molto più di quanto concepì e produsse. Malgrado questa dipendenza di contenuto, l'Illuminismo ha creato una forma di pensiero filosofico assolutamente nuova e peculiare.

tiny differences in the nature of individuals require that each of usdiscovers, arranges, and sustains his or her unique partnerships andterritories. Because of this uniqueness you must actively steer your life rather that just letting it happen. None of us is mere clay for environment's thumbs and even the youngest of ten children is a one-off architect who renovates his parents.Using clarity, humor, and personal examples, Dr. James Brody shows why you simplify or complicate your life, form partnerships and social networks, and sometimes conform or not. He also explains why certain aspects of physics are your best friends, why your commonsense handles them so well, why women displace men, and why you shouldn't believe bell curves! To illustrate, Brody includes stories from his clients as well as from biologists Charles and Erasmus Darwin, authors William and Henry James, anthropologists Mary Leakey and Loren Eiseley, and Nobel-winners Richard Feynman and Rita Levi-Montalcini.'' a rich tapestry of human behavior, but done in a way that gives significance to individualism using models that physics and mathematics offer. Phase transitions, emergent networks, condensates, swarming, and other models are in the arsenal that he develops in the first half of the book and applies in its second half to evolution and behavior genetics, conflict and suicide, and resilience and personal will. This is serious work, yet it is not difficult to read. I highly recommend it.''-Bryen Lorenz, Ph.D., Professor of Electrical Engineering, Widener University

<p>C by Dissection presents a thorough introduction to the programming process by carefully developing working programs to illuminate key features of the C programming language. This book presents the concepts of the programming process using the "dissection" method. Dissection is a unique tool first developed by the authors to point out key features of program code. It is similar to a structured walk-through of the code, with the intention of explaining newly encountered programming elements and idioms as found in working code. Each chapter presents a number of carefully explained programs, which lead the reader in a holistic manner to ever-improving programming skills. Right from the start, the reader is introduced to complete programs, and at an early point in the book is introduced to writing functions as a major feature of structured programming. This edition features expanded treatment of pointers, memory management, and recursion. It also takes into account the fact that many people are learning Java as a first language and then going to C, or vice-versa, and calls out those topics that present a challenge when making such transitions (e.g. i/o, data types). This book assumes no programming background and can be used by first-time computer users or by experienced programmers who are transitioning to C.</p> <p>A new edition of an introduction to C programming by bestselling authors Kelley and Pohl, this book is especially useful for beginning programmers, giving them the opportunity to learn sound structured programming in the powerful C language. "Dissections" and numerous examples are used to clearly explain C making this a perfect tutorial for the reader. </p>

Zurückblicken und nach vorne schauen: Wir alle wollen unserem Leben Sinn und Bedeutung geben. Verena Kast zeigt: Sinn und Bedeutung liegen in jedem Leben. Auch in Umwegen oder Abwegen, und auch in Entscheidungen, die Probleme brachten und schmerzvoll waren. Wir können erkennen: Eigentlich sind wir doch ganz gut damit umgegangen. Wir haben das Beste daraus gemacht. Menschen, die sich auf einen Lebensrückblick einlassen, sind aufgeschlossener und dem Leben gegenüber positiver eingestellt. Ein spannendes Thema der psychologischen Forschung. Verena Kast macht es auf faszinierende Weise fruchtbar für alle Leserinnen und Leser, indem sie in zahlreichen Beispielen zeigt: Wir profitieren davon, wenn es uns gelingt, das gelebte Leben als das wirklich eigene Leben anzunehmen.Mit ausführlichem Hinweis zur Lebensrückblickstherapie.

This book will cover the fierce night naval battles fought after Guadalcanal between the US Navy and the Imperial Japanese Navy during late 1943 as the Allies advanced slowly up the Solomons Islands toward the major Japanese naval base at Rabaul. During this period, several vicious actions were fought around the American beachheads on the islands of New Georgia, Kolombangara and Vella Lavella in the central Solomons. These battles featured the most modern destroyers of both navies. Throughout most of 1942, the Imperial Navy had held a marked edge in night-fighting during the six-month long struggle for Guadalcanal. A key ingredient of these Japanese successes was their destroyer force which combined superior training and tactics with the most capable torpedo in the world, known to the Allies as the "Long Lance". Even into 1943, at the battles of Kula Gulf and Kolombangara, mixed Allied light cruiser/destroyer forces were roughly handled by Japanese destroyers. After these battles, the Americans decided to stop chasing Japanese destroyers with cruisers so the remainder of the battles in 1943 (with one exception) were classic destroyer duels. The Americans still enjoyed the technical edge provided to them by radar, and now added new, more aggressive tactics. After four more destroyer duels during the second half of 1943, the final result was the defeat of the Imperial Navy's finely trained destroyer force and the demonstration that the Japanese were unable to stop the Allies' advance.

Alchemy, the ancient art of transforming base metal into gold, can also be seen as a powerful metaphor for modern transformation. With a broad introduction to spiritual discipline, The Elements of Alchemy applies the traditions of alchemy to our time, and explains: > how the alchemical process works > the symbols used by alchemists > the part played by dreams and music in alchemy
