English | ISBN: 1634824687 | 2015 | 329 pages | PDF | 24 MB
Based on human neurophysiology, it has been shown that the human brain and spinal cord can partly be repaired by movement-based learning. It seems that even to a very limited extent, new nerve cells can be built anew in the human central nervous system. Neural network learning starts with the knowledge of basic human neural network functions and their communication with the outside world. Neural network functions can only be explored thoroughly if it is partly known what impulse patterns run into and out of the networks. Even though the gained knowledge is rudimentary, it has immediate consequences for learning and the repair of the human central nervous system. This book discusses the theory of neural network learning. It provides research on neural network learning rates in healthy patients and patients with central nervous system injuries; neural network learning for coma patients; improving health in geriatric and cancer patients; and improving mental functions in patients with depression and anxiety.

Author: Benjamin Wardhaugh
Narrator: David Thorpe
Counting is an innovative, erudite, world-wrapping journey through humanity’s marvellous ability to impose numbers on things. Acclaimed historian and mathematician Benjamin Wardhaugh draws on stories from the Stone Age to cyberspace in pursuit of the elusive, fascinating, endlessly diverse history of human counting. Starting with the roots of counting in human brains, bodies and environments, Wardhaugh tours us around the world and through time while exploring the different flavours of counting that have developed over millennia. We meet the makers of bead necklaces in ancient South Africa, the inventors of writing in the world ‘ s first metropolis, and the ‘counter culture’ of classical Athens. We see counting used – and changed – by Indian scholars, Chinese peasants and Papuan shopkeepers; we meet the distinctive numerate agendas of Mayan kings, US governments and Korean vloggers. Weaving these stories together, Wardhaugh shows how cultures have shaped counting, and how counting has shaped culture, in a rich tapestry spanning thousands of years. This is the vast story of human attempts to find some order in an unruly world; or, perhaps, to impose on a reluctant world the order that humans find within themselves. It is a history as wide, deep and tangled as that of humanity itself.

Author: Phil Elwood
Narrator: Holter Graham
A bridge-burning, riotous memoir by a top PR operative in Washington who exposes the secrets of the $129-billion industry that controls so much of what we see and hear in the media-from a man who used to pull the strings, and who is now pulling back the curtain. After nearly two decades in the Washington PR business, Elwood wants to come clean, by exposing the dark underbelly of the very industry that’s made him so successful. The first step is revealing exactly what he’s been up to for the past twenty years-and it isn’t pretty. Elwood has worked for a murderer’s row of questionable clients, including Gaddafi, Assad, and the government of Qatar. In All the Worst Humans, Elwood unveils how the PR business works, and how the truth gets made, spun, and sold to the public-not shying away from the gritty details of his unlikely career. This is a piercing look into the corridors of money, power, politics, and control, all told in Elwood’s disarmingly funny and entertaining voice.

Free Download David L R Stein, "Will Their Egos Drive Humans to Extinction?: Humans Are Seemingly Unable to Control Their Selves"
English | 2019 | ISBN: 1644622416 | EPUB | pages: 92 | 0.3 mb
What is happening to modern societies? Everywhere one looks one finds signs of moral and social decay. In the US today, a reincarnation of the 1930s Nazi "Brownshirts"-aided and abetted by demented billionaires and euphemistically calling themselves Antifa-are marching in the streets, attacking any who dare to disagree with them, destroying private and public property, proclaiming they are what they are not, and sowing sedition everywhere they go with seeming impunity. This social malignancy is a direct outgrowth of the fact that-instead of teaching the proven advantages and benefits of free-market capitalism and US exceptionalism-today US grammar schools, high schools, colleges, and universities are indoctrinating their students in a political ideology masquerading as "postmodernism." An amalgamation of Marxist-inspired totalitarian ideologies-including socialism, communism, fascism (né national socialism), and progressivism-postmodernism is Marxist-Leninist communism in a new dress more accurately termed "sociocommunism." The author examines significant sources of political and social instability in today’s world, including the possibility of a "hot" war with China, and concludes that-while such a war is certainly not necessary, it well may be inevitable due to humankind’s seeming inability to learn from the mistakes and successes of their predecessors-and, unless this pattern is broken, humankind can look forward only to a dismal future riven by crimes, wars, and social regressions in which human societies continuously cycle through successive periods of social discord, dysfunction, instability, revolution, and counterrevolution.
