*Shortlisted for Sunday Times Book of the Year* *A Greater Good Science Center Best Book of 2022* An eye-opening journey into the power of human movement and how we can harness it to optimize our brain health, boost our mood and improve every aspect our lives For our earliest ancestors who hunted and gathered, movement meant survival. Our brains evolved to reward physical activity. Moving, thinking and feeling have always been inextricably linked. Yet what happens when we stop moving? Today, on average, we spend around 70% of our lives sitting or lying completely still. Our sedentary lifestyle—desk jobs, long commutes and lots of screen time—is not only bad for our bodies. It can also result in anxiety, depression and a lower overall IQ. But there’s good news. Even the simplest movements can reactivate our bodies and open up a hotline to our minds, improving our overall well-being and longevity. And we don’t have to spend countless hours in the gym. In fact, exercise as we understand it misses the point. Veteran science journalist Caroline Williams explores the cutting-edge research behind brain health and physical activity, interviewing scientists from around the world to completely reframe our relationship to movement. Along the way she reveals easy tricks that we could all use to improve our memory, maximize our creativity, strengthen our emotional literacy and more. A welcome counterpoint to the current mindfulness craze, Move offers a more stimulating and productive way of freeing our caged minds to live our best life.

French philosophy and cultural theory continue to hold a prestigious and influential position in European thought. One of the central themes of contemporary French philosophy is its concern with the theoretical and political status of the subject, a question which has been broached by structuralists and poststructuralists through an analysis of the construction of the subject in and by language, discourse, power and ideology.Contemporary French Philosophy outlines the construction of the subject in modern philosophy, focusing in particular on the seminal work of Althusser, Lacan, Derrida and Foucault. The book interrogates some of the most influential perspectives on the question of the subject to contest those postmodern voices which announce its disappearance or death. It argues instead that the question of the subject persists, even in those perspectives which seek to abandon it altogether.Providing a broad introduction to the field and an original analysis of some of the most influential theorists of the 20th Century, the book will be of great interest to political and literary theorists, cultural historians, as well as to philosophers.

Using herself as a guinea pig, a science journalist explores "neuroplasticity" to find out whether she can make meaningful, lasting changes to the way her brain works. In books like THE HAPPINESS PROJECT, THE NO-SPEND YEAR, and THE YEAR OF YES, individuals have tried a specific experience and then reported on it, sharing the takeaway for the rest of us. In MY PLASTIC BRAIN, Caroline Williams spends a year exploring "neuroplasticity"--the brain''s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections--to find out whether she can make meaningful, lasting changes to the way her brain works. A science journalist with access to cutting edge experts and facilities, she volunteers herself as a test subject, challenging researchers to make real changes to the function and performance of her brain. She seeks to improve on everyday weaknesses such as her limited attention span and tendency to worry too much. She then branches out into more mysterious areas such as creativity and the perception of time. From Boston to Oxford, England, and Philadelphia to Freiburg, Germany, Williams travels to labs or virtually meets with scientists and tries their techniques of mindfulness meditation, magnetic brain stimulation, sustained focus exercises, stress response retraining, and more. She shares her intimate journey with readers to discover what neuroscience can really do for us.

Waterloo saw the end of Bonaparte and of the blockade of trade with Europe. None saw more benefit than the Channel Islanders and for the next half century they developed a lucrative, world-wide carrying trade which built fortunes in St Helier and St Peter Port for ship-builders, ship-owners and mariners. From about 1865 those trades declined âe¦ Guernsey diversified into stone quarrying, whilst Jersey developed the export of the new potato and tourism. This significant contribution to the history of the islands compares the impact of the expansion.

Descubra o seu «sexto sentido» e aprenda a reconfigurar a ligação entre mente e corpo para alcançar uma saúde ideal. Consegue reconhecer os batimentos do seu coração? E os sinais corporais? Com que intensidade é que o seu corpo tende a gritar? A interoceção é um dos nossos sentidos mais importantes — e também dos mais misteriosos. É a forma como o cérebro interpreta o que sentimos no corpo, e como indica que devemos reagir ao que nos rodeia. Algumas pessoas são tão pouco sensíveis aos sinais internos do corpo que têm dificuldade em identificar necessidades básicas. Esta desconexão pode conduzir a problemas que vão desde a fadiga crónica até à ansiedade ou a distúrbios alimentares. Neste livro, a autora revela o deslumbrante campo da interoceção, com a ajuda de investigadores que trabalham para aperfeiçoar as suas capacidades de interoceção e de profissionais de saúde que investigam as múltiplas formas de como esta pode atuar. Combinando ciência, medicina, e algumas terapias, esta obra pioneira mostra como este «sexto sentido» nos pode ajudar a regular emoções, reduzir o stress e viver melhor. Os elogios da crítica: «Fascinante e promissor.» Dr. Monty Lyman, autor de O Cérebro e o Sistema Imunitário «Um livro excecional. Um mergulho profundo e fascinante numa das áreas mais excitantes da investigação científica.» David Robson, autor de O Efeito das Expectativas

A lucid introduction to post-Marxist political philosophy, this work offers a balanced assessment of the philosophy and political thought of Baruch de Spinoza. It explores the influence of Spinoza upon Louis Althusser and some of his contemporaries. The positions of a range of modern political philosophers who think with, beyond, or against Althusser are explored, including Etienne Balibar, Antonio Negri, and Slavjob Zizek. Ideology and political critique, democracy and exclusion, language and power, and imagination and subjectivity are among the topics discussed, arguing that many of Spinoza''s ideas find radical expression in Althusserian and post-Althusserian political philosophy.
