Download or read book Cyberbrain written by Benoit Blanchard and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2014-11-08 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States government’s plan to eradicate crime. A billionaire doctor’s sinister plot to expand mind control throughout North America under the auspices of the American president. An ethical neurosurgeon whose purpose in life is to prevent Cyberbrain’s expansion outside the United States. Max Wilson, a medical school student from Buffalo, is looking forward to saving lives. His peers, however, are pressuring him to consider a lucrative offer from the Cyberbrain Corporation: train as a government-sponsored doctor inserting neural implants, or “cybers,” in the brains of newborns. Cyberbrain—a program designed by billionaire doctor Patrick Kobayashi to eliminate crime by stifling criminal thought right where it starts—in the brain. Max and his friends were part of first wave of Cyberbrain implants. He’s told time and again that it’s something he should be proud of, but he feels trapped inside his own head. An accident on Canadian soil puts him under the scalpel of Dr. Warren Alston. Alston is a respected neurosurgeon who refused to be a lackey to Kobayashi’s pet project at the beginning of his career. He fled to Canada, where free will was still the law of the land. Alston is recruited years later by Kobayashi to expand Cyberbrain’s operations to Canada, but he sends the billionaire packing. Alston extracts the cyber from Max’s brain and sends it to a secret lab for study. Alston is convinced Cyberbrain’s implants pose a far greater threat to society at large than merely suppressing criminal thought. Max has become the only living person to have his cyber removed. He discovers the true meaning of free will, and he understands why he felt trapped inside his head. Max refuses to submit to a direct order for a new implant; he is a wanted man. But Max is convinced that anyone who has undergone a neural implant must have their cyber removed, beginning with his girlfriend, Vanessa. With Dr. Alston’s help, Max is prepared to risk arrest to bring Vanessa across the border. Will Dr. Alston’s war on Cyberbrain prove that Kobayashi has something far more menacing in mind? Will Max be able to convince Vanessa that free will is far more desirable than suppressed thought?

Download or read book Japanese Americans and the Racial Uniform written by Dana Y. Nakano and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2023-08-15 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How race continues to shape the citizenship and everyday lives of later-generation Japanese Americans Japanese Americans are seen as the “model minority,” a group that has fully assimilated and excelled within the US. Yet third- and fourth-generation Japanese Americans continue to report feeling marginalized within the predominantly white communities they call home. Japanese Americans and the Racial Uniform explores this apparent contradiction, challenging the way society understands the role of race in social and cultural integration. To explore race and the everyday practices of citizenship, Dana Y. Nakano begins at an unlikely site, Japanese Village and Deer Park, a now defunct Japan-themed amusement park in suburban Southern California. Drawing from extensive interviews with the park’s Japanese American employees as well as photographic imagery, Nakano shows how the employees' race acted as part of their work uniform and magnified their sense of alienation from their white peers and the park’s white visitors. While the racial perception of Japanese Americans as forever foreigners made them ideal employees for Deer Park, the same stigma continues to marginalizes Japanese Americans beyond the place and time of the amusement park. Into the present day, third and fourth generation Japanese Americans share feelings of racialized non-belonging and yearning for community. Japanese Americans and the Racial Uniform pushes us to rethink the persistent recognition of racial markers—the racial body as a visible, ever-present uniform—and how it continues to impact claims on an American identity and the lived experience of citizenship.

Download or read book How Change Happens in Equine Assisted Interventions written by Noreen W. Esposito and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-02-24 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Change Happens in Equine-Assisted Interventions gives clinicians and researchers an intervention theory on the mechanisms of change during psychotherapy and other interventions that incorporate horses. Chapters introduce the concept of intervention theory, present a theory of the problem (what the client comes with), theories explaining the intervention (what is done during a session), and theories of change (what happens in the mind of a client), with each theory’s function described. Using an autoethnographic approach, the authors describe, deconstruct, and analyze personal experiences as clients during an equine-assisted intervention. Then the authors present and apply a unique intervention theory by linking it to the thoughts and experiences of clients in and after a session. Practitioners will come away from this book with a unique perspective on the field and with an increased understanding of what their clients are thinking both in and out of session. Researchers will have an explanatory theory from which to draw testable hypotheses when studying interventions incorporating horses.
