Download or read book Mental Calisthenics Or Physiological Memory written by G. A. Schram and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mental Calisthenics, or Physiological Memory: The Natural Laws and Principles Governing the Intellectual Processes; It Is Positively a New Departure on the Subject of Attention and Memory; No Mnemonical Tricks Used In presenting this little book to the reader, I feel that a few words by way of introduction will not be amiss. I am fully aware of the boldness of my under taking to write upon a subject of so vast importance, and, withal, one whose practical side has so long evaded the pursuit of the thousands who have tried to capture and bring it forth to the light of day. I apprehend that the first thought of the reader may. Be to consign the book to the fate of the mnemonical systems preceding, whose name is legion, but are generally worse than useless. But trusting to the forbearance of the reader, where he does not find the subject put with sufficient perspicuity and fullness to suit him, I send it forth with a confidence born of personal verification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Physiological Basis of Memory, Second Edition reviews many areas of research that shed light on the physiological basis of memory, from mnemonic function and memory facilitation to synaptic transmission. The book also considers neuropsychology involving animal subjects, learning produced by direct brain stimulation, and the basis of associative learning at the cellular level. This edition is organized into 10 chapters and begins with an overview of the link between protein synthesis and memory, paying attention to studies devoted to chemical changes associated with learning; the effect of inhibitors of RNA and protein synthesis on learning; the molecular code of memory; and the role of proteins in learning. The reader is methodically introduced to the enhancement of memory consolidation; the use of the cellular-connection approach to investigate both non-associative and associative learning; and the effect of depression on memory storage. The following chapters discuss the impact of brain lesions on animal memory; the neurology of memory and amnesia in human and nonhuman primates; the function of the neural substrate for self-stimulation of the medial forebrain bundle; and the effects of electroconvulsive shock on memory. A chapter on the role of catecholamines in memory processing concludes the book. This book should be useful to researchers and students interested in the physiology of memory.

Download or read book Why We Forget and How to Remember Better written by Andrew E. Budson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "One of us (Elizabeth) had the opportunity to conduct research with a gentleman named Henry Molaison (better known by his initials, H.M.1), who had the interior portion of his left and right temporal lobes (the part of your brain next to your temples) removed in 1953 because of epileptic seizures that were difficult to control. From a technical standpoint, the surgical procedures went fine. But, as he recovered, the doctors and researchers soon noticed something very troubling: he was unable to form any new memories. He could read, and talk, and if you were having a brief conversation with him, you would probably not notice anything amiss. But family members would visit and, although he knew who they were, he would have no memory of them coming. New doctors would introduce themselves and the next day (or even the next hour) he did not recall that he had met them. It was then that the doctors understood that, somehow, the removal of those parts of the temporal lobe caused him to become completely amnestic"--

Download or read book 2 Weeks To A Younger Brain written by Gary Small and published by Humanix Books. This book was released on 2016-04-12 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Gary Small and Gigi Vorgan’s 2 Weeks To A Younger Brain translates the latest brain science into practical strategies and exercises that yield quick and long- lasting benefits. Misplacing your keys, forgetting someone’s name at a party, or coming home from the market without the most important item — these are just some of the many common memory slips we all experience from time to time. But such cognitive lapses don’t just plague middle-agers and seniors; UCLA studies indicate that forgetfulness begins much earlier in life. Scientists can detect subtle changes in the brain that coincide with mental decline by the time we reach age 40, and our findings show that people as young as 20 already have memory problems. 2 Weeks to a Younger Brain will not only improve your memory, but will also strengthen your physical health by reducing your risk for diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. The latest research confirms that there is a lot we can do to boost our memory and keep our brains young. After three decades of helping thousands of patients improve their memory and mental acuity, Dr. Small and Gorgan are convinced that our daily lifestyle habits are directly linked to our brain health. This book will show that it only takes two weeks to form new habits that bolster cognitive abilities and help stave off, or even reverse, brain aging. If you commit only 14 days to 2 Weeks To A Younger Brain, you will reap noticeable results. During that brief period, you will have learned the secrets to keeping your brain young for the rest of your life.

Download or read book Your Mind Bulletproof written by Kaspar Schäfer and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-02 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are looking for the blueprint for mastering your mind to make it work for you, then read more. The mind is a very complex system. The brain itself has 86 billion neurons and each neuron can make up to 10,000 connections to other neurons. There is always room for improvement to make this a system that works for you. My name is Kaspar Schäfer. I am a mental athlete and researcher who has spent several years coaching students and other individuals to work their way towards mental mastery. I had challenges prior to my journey in cognition training where I had been the lowest-performing student in my class. This problem would plague me from middle school to college where I had numerous run-ins with getting kicked out of school for violating academic probation and being unable to keep my GPA above 1.7. I chose to take a different approach to learn, spending most of my early-20s learning how to learn. It ignited my passion for mental development that had led me to help so many others in overcoming the obstacles I've had, and I have maintained a successful track record in doing so. You can learn ANYTHING! Have you ever had trouble with using your mind to your advantage? Do you find your thoughts rendered invisible by brain fog? Has it always been hard to retain the information you are learning? Do you tend to forget even the most important things? These problems at face value seem difficult to conquer, especially if you don't have methods to help combat these drawbacks. I've been there and faced countless instances where I wanted to give up and just assume my brain simply wasn't good enough to achieve the things I wanted it to. But believing in lies is a principle nobody should adopt. The solution isn't taking a nootropic supplement or having a 95th percentile IQ. The solution is adopting a new way of learning and inherently adopting a new lifestyle. In the process, you redefine your mind as a new mind, a mind that is BULLETPROOF, programmed to tackle any mental obstacle in its path. In Your Mind, Bulletproof, you'll discover: The REAL reason why you have a hard time mastering your mind and can't make it "bulletproof". The number one technique to improve your memory you could have implemented daily.How you can remember things in ways that will fascinate your peers. Study and synthesis tactics you can use to connect new information in ways you never had done before. Ideas that reassure you mental mastery is NOT genetic and that your thinking power can be constantly improved for the rest of your life. How to turn your brain into a mean, lean, calculating machine. The habits and activities that separate the top thinkers from the rest of the world. And so much more... Many debacles individuals face while learning can be rooted, they can be traced back to the way their minds work and how they think. But teachings in psychology and neuroscience imply time and time again this is only a phase to progress through and it is NOT a norm to deal with. Your Mind, Bulletproof will give you a clear blueprint and explain why you may haven't gotten out of this phase in mastering the mind. If you have never taken the steps to improve your mind, you can still make it bulletproof. p>If you have had your own experiences with mental fitness, this book will still provide you new information to take away that not found in other brain training books. So if you want to build the mind you dream about and materialize your bulletproof mind into an object of reality, then scroll up to the top of the page and click the buy now with the 2-click button to get your book instantly!
