Download or read book Mindshift written by Barbara Oakley, PhD and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mindshift reveals how we can overcome stereotypes and preconceived ideas about what is possible for us to learn and become. At a time when we are constantly being asked to retrain and reinvent ourselves to adapt to new technologies and changing industries, this book shows us how we can uncover and develop talents we didn’t realize we had—no matter what our age or background. We’re often told to “follow our passions.” But in Mindshift, Dr. Barbara Oakley shows us how we can broaden our passions. Drawing on the latest neuroscientific insights, Dr. Oakley shepherds us past simplistic ideas of “aptitude” and “ability,” which provide only a snapshot of who we are now—with little consideration about how we can change. Even seemingly “bad” traits, such as a poor memory, come with hidden advantages—like increased creativity. Profiling people from around the world who have overcome learning limitations of all kinds, Dr. Oakley shows us how we can turn perceived weaknesses, such as impostor syndrome and advancing age, into strengths. People may feel like they’re at a disadvantage if they pursue a new field later in life; yet those who change careers can be fertile cross-pollinators: They bring valuable insights from one discipline to another. Dr. Oakley teaches us strategies for learning that are backed by neuroscience so that we can realize the joy and benefits of a learning lifestyle. Mindshift takes us deep inside the world of how people change and grow. Our biggest stumbling blocks can be our own preconceptions, but with the right mental insights, we can tap into hidden potential and create new opportunities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *If envy is a sin, then let me be damned*. Graham was born to be a star. Once upon a time, that star shone only for me. Now, I have to share him with the rest of the world. For a while, I thought I could do it. Because, beneath the hypnotic smile, gorgeous body and God-given charm that made him famous, I still caught glimpses of my best friend. Of the boy who called me sunshine and loved me. I wore that love like a crown . . . until he placed it on another's head. Losing him was agony, distance felt like the only cure. When tragedy reunites us after years apart, it only takes one touch to erase the past. Just like that, I'm back in his arms. He promises this time will be different. But I'm afraid to believe him. Because behind his star's blinding brilliance is a darkness that doesn't want to let him go. I know a star that bright can't belong to just one person, but my jealous heart doesn't want to share him. I want all of him . . . even if wanting what doesn't belong to me leads me to ruin.

Book excerpt: A startling and evocative novel, harkening to both One Day and Gravity, a man and a woman revisit memories of their love affair on a utopian Earth while they are trapped in the vast void of space with only ninety minutes of oxygen left. After the catastrophic destruction of the Middle East and the United States, Europe has become a utopia and, every three years, the European population must rotate into different multicultural communities, living as individuals responsible for their own actions. While living in this paradise, Max meets Carys and immediately feels a spark of attraction. He quickly realizes, however, that Carys is someone he might want to stay with long-term, which is impossible in this new world. As their relationship plays out, the connections between their time on Earth and their present dilemma in space become clear. When their air ticks dangerously low, one is offered the chance of salvation—but who will take it? An original and daring exploration of the impact of first love and how the choices we make can change the fate of everyone around us, this is an unforgettable read.

Book An Anthropologist on Mars

Download or read book An Anthropologist on Mars written by Oliver Sacks and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-11-14 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat • Fascinating portraits of neurological disorder in which men, women, and one extraordinary child emerge as brilliantly adaptive personalities, whose conditions have not so much debilitated them as ushered them into another reality. Here are seven detailed narratives of neurological patients, including a surgeon consumed by the compulsive tics of Tourette's syndrome unless he is operating; an artist who loses all sense of color in a car accident, but finds a new sensibility and creative power in black and white; and an autistic professor who cannot decipher the simplest social exchange between humans, but has built a career out of her intuitive understanding of animal behavior. Sacks combines the well honed mind of an academician with the verve of a true storyteller.

Book excerpt: From the critically acclaimed author of the collection Kentucky Straight and memoir My Father the Pornographer, The Good Brother is the finely crafted debut novel from a talent the New York Times calls “a fierce writer”. Virgil Caudill has never gone looking for trouble, but this time he's got no choice—his hell-raising brother Boyd has been murdered. Everyone knows who did it, and in the hills of Kentucky, tradition won’t let a murder go unavenged. No matter which way he chooses, Virgil will lose. The Good Brother is the story of a man’s struggle to find his real self in the wake of an impossible choice. Traversing the American landscape from the hollows of Eastern Kentucky to the plains of Montana, Offutt explores the hunger for belonging that drives our most passionate beliefs, and in the process shows himself to be one of our most powerful storytellers.

Book excerpt: Resumen: La vida de Sofa del Carmen representa la problemtica y desarrollo de la mujer y los pases del tercer mundo donde las grandes potencias los dejaron para lograr su egoistica superacin y a la vez sacaron fruto de todos ellos. Sofa del Carmen es un ser especialmente humano, simple, que ama profundamente, sufre profundamente pero posee la gracia ms preciosa que cualquier Ser puede poseer: Fe en Dios y a travs de Dios en ella misma, ella cae, se levanta y sigue hacia delante con la esperanza puesta en El que todo lo puede pero colaborando da a da en la forma ms sencilla con la obra ms maravillosa del Creador: El Ser humano. Educando el ser humano, siendo una humilde maestra de educacin elemental y por su espritu de generosidad, Sofa fue cause de transformacin no solo de todos los que pasaron por sus aulas, sino tambin de todos los que los rodeaban, sus padres, sus familias, sus pueblos. Desde su niez enfrentando y viviendo en sociedades machistas, restringidas, conservativas, fue capaz de avanzar y aunque con dificultad algunas veces, -debido a las presiones de las instituciones que guan nuestras sociedades-, logra abrir su mente y aceptar los cambios que por su intrnseca naturaleza se abren al paso del desarrollo humano. Sin embargo, Sofa experimenta la frustracin de todos nuestros pueblos cuando despus de haber logrado realizar un arduo trabajo, en minutos todo puede ser destruido por la violencia que muchas veces crece con nuestra misma naturaleza humana, como crecen la cizaa y la buena yerba. A la misma vez Sofa, como nuestros pueblos es una persona alegre, llena de vida que nos describe las caractersticas y los costumbrismos de estas vastas regiones en las montaas de los Andes ricas en belleza natural y calor humano, sus historias de la vida cotidiana nos muestra la idiosincrasia de sus gentes casi nos deja saborear sus alimentos y sus bebidas as como de la msica, las pasiones y los amores que la envolvieron.
