Book excerpt: The unforgettable novel of a woman who must return to her small hometown in the South, only to discover that the years-old secrets and scandals of her past are right where she left them—from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown Sunny Chandler always said she’d never return to Latham Green, Louisiana. Just three years ago she was at the center of the small town’s juiciest scandal. Now she’s been invited to her best friend’s wedding and has no choice but to go home. And with her return come the whispers . . . the looks . . . the rumors. It doesn’t take her long to see that Latham Green has nothing new to offer. Except maybe Ty Beaumont . . . Ty can see through the gossip to the real Sunny. Yet despite his easy Southern charm, Sunny doesn’t seem interested, even if she’s seriously tempted. For she’s harboring the agonizing secret of why she really left. What she needs is a man who’s not just a lover. And though there’s clearly much more to the roguish Ty Beaumont than meets the eye, Sunny doesn’t know if she can trust anyone with her secret heartbreak—even the one man who may be able to heal it.

Download or read book I ve Been Thinking written by Daniel C. Dennett and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How unfair for one man to be blessed with such a torrent of stimulating thoughts. Stimulating is an understatement." —Richard Dawkins A memoir by one of the greatest minds of our age, preeminent philosopher and cognitive scientist Daniel C. Dennett. Daniel C. Dennett, preeminent philosopher and cognitive scientist, has spent his career considering the thorniest, most fundamental mysteries of the mind. Do we have free will? What is consciousness and how did it come about? What distinguishes human minds from the minds of animals? Dennett’s answers have profoundly shaped our age of philosophical thought. In I’ve Been Thinking, he reflects on his amazing career and lifelong scientific fascinations. Dennett’s relentless curiosity has taken him from a childhood in Beirut and the classrooms of Harvard, Oxford, and Tufts, to “Cognitive Cruises” on sailboats and the fields and orchards of Maine, and to laboratories and think tanks around the world. Along the way, I’ve Been Thinking provides a master class in the dominant themes of twentieth-century philosophy and cognitive science—including language, evolution, logic, religion, and AI—and reveals both the mistakes and breakthroughs that shaped Dennett’s theories. Key to this journey are Dennett’s interlocutors—Douglas Hofstadter, Marvin Minsky, Willard Van Orman Quine, Gilbert Ryle, Richard Rorty, Thomas Nagel, John Searle, Gerald Edelman, Stephen Jay Gould, Jerry Fodor, Rodney Brooks, and more—whose ideas, even when he disagreed with them, helped to form his convictions about the mind and consciousness. Studded with photographs and told with characteristic warmth, I’ve Been Thinking also instills the value of life beyond the university, one enriched by sculpture, music, farming, and deep connection to family. Dennett compels us to consider: What do I really think? And what if I’m wrong? This memoir by one of the greatest minds of our time will speak to anyone who seeks to balance a life of the mind with adventure and creativity.

Download or read book Concealed Truth Revealed written by Vivian Elizabeth Stett Muir and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-11-06 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carolyn Bryant tells her story. She begins with her attempt to commit suicide and her depression in 1977. After twelve years, she told her family that if she did not get help, she would succeed next time because no one would catch her. Carolyn took on therapy just like she took on everything else. She gave it her all. She became a voracious reader, consuming every book Sandy, her therapist, recommended. She wrote a letter to her parents relating her fifty-four years of pain and anger. Following the writing of the letter, she was plagued with partial memories that did not make sense. She met Bob, a hypnotherapist, who was to become the next leg of the three-legged stool that would change her life forever. A few weeks after meeting Bob, she called him and said she would like to make an appointment. He said, "I was waiting for your call." She made an appointment and began retrieving lost memories. She was beginning to find herself. She decided to change her name to Vivian. A few years later, the third leg of the three-legged stool appeared. So much happened by chance. Or was it by chance? The author Richard Bach says that nothing is by chance. Vivian won a free massage at a dinner. She went to several massage sessions, and the lady said to her, "I have never done this before, but I think I have a friend who is also a Rikki masseuse, and I think she is who you should be seeing. If you try her and are not satisfied, I will always be available." Vivian made an appointment with Gayle and knew immediately that she had just found the third leg of her three-legged stool.
