In When the Body Says No, physician and writer Gabor Maté explores the mind-body link and the connection between stress and disease. Can a person literally die of loneliness? Is there a relationship between the ability to express emotions and Alzheimer’s disease? Is there such a thing as a “cancer personality”? Drawing on scientific research and years of experience as a practicing physician, Maté provides answers to these and other important questions.

Full of things we may know but have not articulated to ourselves, Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart is a gentle and generous alternative to the trial-and-error learning that makes wisdom such an expensive commodity. For everyone who feels a sense of urgency that the clock ticks and still we aren't the person we'd like to be, it offers solace, guidance, and hope.

Happy that he moves quickly over the obligatory founders, covered everywhere. There is a certain monomania endemic to reducing everything to bits. But there are of course good reasons that aren't going away.
btw. Moore's law is long exhausted. Adding cores doesn't increase density.

The topic of neurotheology has garnered increasing attention in the academic, religious, scientific, and popular worlds. But there have been no attempts to explore more specifically how Jewish religious thought and experience may intersect with neurotheology. The Rabbi's Brain engages this groundbreaking area.

I have not been convinced of the validity of the new Neurotheology. This book urges me to give it some further thought; as being a Kohanim seems to place a sign on my back saying 'If you have a problem, I have six hours to give you.' Removing the self-aggrandizement from the argument would be more scientific. Unfortunately, that would require a test batch of Kohanim that were oblivious to their background. Finally, while Kohanim is indeed passed paternally, if there were any intervening Gentile mother, you are disqualified. I do not think they have yet found even a Cohen with 100% DNA; 5000 years is a long time to remain pure.

This is a self-help book for people who don't usually buy self-help books. Instead of offering cognitive-behavioral techniques for dealing with anger, or affirming strategies to boost self-esteem, this self-help book adapts the basic methods of psychodynamic psychotherapy to a guided course in self-exploration, highlighting the universal role of defense mechanisms in warding off emotional pain.

Ingo Swann - renowned psi researcher - reveals a long-held secret series of experiences with a "deep black" agency whose apparent charter was simple: UFOs and extraterrestrials on the moon and worries about ET telepathic/mind control powers. The agency was so secret that it had no paper trail, and hence no written secrecy agreements.

When you need to start with Emoto, the outlook is not good. (The widely known problem is that he cherry-picks his photos. You don't see the whole tray.) Insisting that something is "scientific" does not make it true; Science is a dynamic arena filled with far more debate than consensus. Nevertheless, science also has a perfectly consistent and reasonaable explanation of the white tunnel effect through the brain's natural shutdown processes, that do not require quantum physics at all. While stressing energetic unification, the persistence of differentiated personality becomes an immense dificulty.Think different, sure. As well, beware of false rabbis.

You've heard it before. More than that, you know most of it.. But you haven't heard Steve Sims put it together so comprehensively, authoritatively (we may believe), and enjoyably. It's not so much the message, it's his ability to thoughtfully, conscientiously, and realistiaclly remind you to get off your ass. A great pep talk.

One of the most original psychoanalysts after Freud, Karen Horney pioneered such now-familiar concepts as alienation, self-realization, and the idealized image, and she brought to psychoanalysis a new understanding of the importance of culture and environment.

Authoritative.
Reviewed: 04-05-18
Wondering if you are, or just asking for a friend? It's a complex question not to be sold short, and Horney expertly explains why. I judge it a quite tame application of psychoanalytic theory that has no reason to annoy anti-Freudians. Holds up under, if not requires repeats--and as a foundational text, deserves them. Narrator spot on: Musters authority for claims and relaxes for reflections.
