Download or read book An Anthropology of Puzzles written by Marcel Danesi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Anthropology of Puzzles argues that the human brain is a "puzzling organ" which allows humans to literally solve their own problems of existence through puzzle format. Noting the presence of puzzles everywhere in everyday life, Marcel Danesi looks at puzzles in society since the dawn of history, showing how their presence has guided large sections of human history, from discoveries in mathematics to disquisitions in philosophy. Danesi examines the cognitive processes that are involved in puzzle making and solving, and connects them to the actual physical manifestations of classic puzzles. Building on a concept of puzzles as based on Jungian archetypes, such as the river crossing image, the path metaphor, and the journey, Danesi suggests this could be one way to understand the public fascination with puzzles. As well as drawing on underlying mental archetypes, the act of solving puzzles also provides an outlet to move beyond biological evolution, and Danesi shows that puzzles could be the product of the same basic neural mechanism that produces language and culture. Finally, Danesi explores how understanding puzzles can be a new way of understanding our human culture.

Download or read book I Am a Key written by Larry Odell Johnson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose for the production of my current book, I Am A Key, is to assist readers in a clearer understanding of my first book, The Mind Factory. My first book dealt with pure theory and, while I made a gallant effort there to soften the language in that field of discourse, it was not a complete success. It still turned out not to be an easy read for the lay reader. As was my goal, I needed to consolidate a lot of information in a relatively short single volume. No doubt, for any diligent student of sociology or philosophy it was a casual read; but I wanted the book to accommodate the lay reader as well. In reviewing this issue of clarity of exposition-after the fact-for my book, The Mind Factory, I was reminded that I did not give interpretations for the anagrams that I presented in that book. Moreover, since defining and exhibiting anagrams was the central feature of the book, I concluded that providing interpretations for those anagrams would be the best way to pursue the immediate goal of opening up one's understanding of the overall theory contained in that book. Consequently, I present my readers with my current book, I Am A Key. In my current book, I give a representation of the extended version of the key defined and presented in the earlier book, I use an example from the first book to detail just how an anagram is derived, and I explain the meaning of an interpretation while also providing interpretations for each of the 288 anagrams contained in my other book. With this additional commentary I am satisfied that I will have done as much as anyone could possibly do to initiate a contemporary discussion and explanation of this theory. That is, to explain the reality of the existence of the latent content in our everyday language. Of course the secondary goal of these two books is to show by way of demonstrate that by implication the word "theory," as used within context here, does not mean something unproven or yet to be proven, and the

Download or read book Implicit Memory and Metacognition written by Lynne M. Reder and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metacognition is a term that spans many sub-areas in psychology and means different things to different people. A dominant view has been that metacognition involves the monitoring of performance in order to control cognition; however, it seems reasonable that much of this control runs implicitly (i.e., without awareness). Newer still is the field of implicit memory, and it has different connotations to different sub-groups as well. The editor of this volume takes it to mean that a prior experience affects behavior without the individual's appreciation (ability to report) of this influence. Implicit memory and metacognition seem to be at two opposite ends of the spectrum -- one seemingly conscious and control-oriented, the other occurring without subjects' awareness. Do these processes relate to each other in interesting ways, or do they operate independently without reference to each other? The relatively novel conjecture that much of the control of cognition operates at an implicit level sparked Reder's desire to explore the interrelationship between the two fields. Developed within the last two decades, both fields are very new and generate a great deal of excitement and research interest. Hundreds of articles have been written about metacognition and about implicit memory, but little if any material has been published about the two areas in combination. In other words, Metacognition and Implicit Memory is the first book attempting to integrate what should be closely linked efforts in the study of cognitive science.

Download or read book Combinatorics Decoded written by A K Pandey and published by IITPAL. This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About Book: Combinatorics is one of most logical and live field of mathematics. Concepts of combinatorics are widely applicable in probability and computations. Learning combinatorics requires little different approach. It requires building fundamental rules of execution. Every new problem demands a new rule. So by remembering few fix rules we can't be expert of this fascinating field. This book focuses on experiential learning of the subject. It takes reader into the all new world of the combinatorics while developing intuitive map of algorithms. This book is suitable as a class text or for individual study. This trusted book covers the Concepts of Combinatorics including the counting techniques, Permutations and Combinations, Arrangements of objects in circular manner, Derangement, generating functions and recurrence relations. This wonder book is also suitable for any one interested in learning combinatorics from SCRATCH and having no basic knowledge. Concepts are presented in very lucid manner so that students will find it very easy to read. A wide range of solved examples, about 300 combinatoric problems taken from various mathematical competitions and exercises are also included. Contents: -Permutations and Combinations -Generating Functions -Recurrence Relations -partitions of Integers -counting sequences and generating functions -Derangement -Application of Prime Factorization Theorem in combinatorics -Binomial Coefficients and Multinational Coefficients Reviews: Rishabh sharma 5.0 out of 5 stars Combinatorics is explained in the best way Reviewed in India on 10 September 2020 Verified Purchase Rishabh Sharma (*****) This book is great to learn combinatorics from basics as it covers JEE syllabus completely and is more inclined towards the intuition of a human brain.

This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows why and how the concepts, control and happenstance, are crucial to methodology and statistics, respectively. Control, as a means to reduce ambiguity, fulfills its function because of inductive rules. Statistical null hypothesis renders it possible to use test of statistical significance to rule out happenstance as explanation of research result. This book shows why and how the concepts, control and happenstance, are crucial to methodology and statistics, respectively. Control, as a means to reduce ambiguity, fulfills its function because of inductive rules. Statistical null hypothesis renders it possible to use tests of statistical significance to rule out happenstance as an explanation for research results. Basic concepts of descriptive statistics are introduced in the context of data collection, tabulation, derivation, and standardization. Issues related to psychometric measurement, correlation and regression are thereby explained as well. Random sampling distribution renders possible inferential statistics (viz., confidence interval, parameter estimation, hypothesis testing and goodness-of-fit). The book shows how standardizing random sampling distribution gives rise to parametric tests. In short, this book shows that research impartiality is possible despite the belief in (as well as instances of) “beauty is in the eye of the beholder.”
