Book Do I Know You

    Book Details:
  • Author : Sharrona Pearl
  • Publisher : JHU Press
  • Release : 2023-11-28
  • ISBN : 1421447541
  • Pages : 229 pages

Download or read book Do I Know You written by Sharrona Pearl and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating history of how we recognize faces—or fail to recognize them. In Do I Know You? Sharrona Pearl explores the fascinating category of face recognition and the "the face recognition spectrum," which ranges from face blindness at one end to super recognition at the other. Super recognizers can recall faces from only the briefest exposure, while face blind people lack the capacity to recognize faces at all, including those of their closest loved ones. Informed by archival research, the latest neurological studies, and testimonials from people at both ends of the spectrum, Pearl tells a nuanced story of how we relate to each other through our faces. The category of face recognition is relatively new despite the importance of faces in how we build relationships and understand our own humanity. Pearl shows how this most tacit of knowledge came to enter the scientific and diagnostic field despite difficulties with identifying it. She offers a grounded framework for how we evaluate others and draw conclusions about them, with significant implications for race, gender, class, and disability. Pearl explores the shifting ideas around the face-recognition spectrum, explaining the effects of these diagnoses on real people alongside implications for how facial recognition is studied and understood. Face blindness is framed as a disability, while super recognition is framed as a superpower with no meaningful disadvantages. This superhero rhetoric is tied to the use of super recognizers in criminal detection, prosecution, and other forms of state surveillance. Do I Know You? demonstrates a humanistic approach to the study of the brain, one that offers an entirely new method for examining this fundamental aspect of human interaction. The combination of personal narratives, scientific and medical research, and high-profile advocates like Oliver Sacks helped to establish face recognition as a category and a spectrum in both diagnostic and experiential realms. Building on an interdisciplinary foundation that includes the history of medicine, science, and technology, disability studies, media and communication, artificial intelligence ethics, and the health humanities, Pearl challenges the binary nature of spectrum thinking in general and provides a fascinating case study in the treatment of this new scientific category.

Book Heroes of Light and Sound

Download or read book Heroes of Light and Sound written by Joy Lin and published by B.E.S. Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if you could be invisible or have super vision and hearing? You'd be a superhero BUT are these superpowers feasible in the real world? Superpower Science: Heroes of Light and Sound tells you all about the reality of these superpowers when looked at through a scientific lens. The series Superpower Science focuses on the superpowers commonly associated with superheroes and reveals just how scientifically realistic they could be to us mere humans. Each title focuses on four superpowers and explains which science principles would come into action if the superpower existed and what effect these science principles would have on the body. Momentum builds through each superhero story as we question everything and clearly explain the science behind their powers as they would exist in real-life. The comic book format and vintage-looking colorful illustrations paired with quirky and humorous explanations turn what would be considered by many as dry physics principles into high interest exciting books. By pointing out the physical limitations of superpowers, the series aims to not crush children's dreams but inspire them to be interested in science.

Book excerpt: Son Of Superman is a sitcom created & produced in Atlanta, Georgia about a young man who starts from rock bottom, with big Dreams & even bigger obstacles, who amazingly climbs his way up from ex-con to icon. You are allowed to see the good, the bad, & the humor in a mans quest to go from local hero, to $20 billion dollar Super Hero. This literary masterpiece combines the comedy of urban life, with the responsibility of raising socio-economical & socio-political awareness. The storyline gets interesting when the audience realizes Tyreal, his dad Tyroy, & his son Tyreign, each have superpowers that only they know about. They werent born with them, but they were born with the ability to develop them individually over time. They didnt get them all at the same time. They had to earn them over time. Whenever they do good deeds, they receive super credits. After theyve accumulated a non-specific amount of super credits, it triggers a powerful shockwave that unlocks a brand new superpower. Their superpowers are broken down into 3 categories- Offense, Defense, & Special Teams. In addition to the superpowers, they also have special abilities known as apps. Each episode is another creative example of how life in the hood can either destroy you, or make you stronger. And whichever outcome you allow, through whatever struggle you experience, life in the hood can always make you laugh. The very first episode documents Tyreal Norths first day out on parole as he starts from the bottom & begins his landmark journey to work his way up to the top with 25 superpowers for a secret weapon against the forces of evil trying to stop him. In subsequent episodes, they will earn, develop, & unlock more superpowers & apps. Tyreal is already on the borderline of unlocking new unprecedented superpowers during season one. In spite of the many obstacles & challenges Tyreal has to face, he continues to shine, & remind the world why he is the Son Of Superman.
