From the Couch to the Lab
In the Mind Fields
Author: Casey Schwartz
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0804169942
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Neuroscience and psychoanalysis are historically opposed responses to the age-old quest to understand ourselves—one focused on the brain and the other on the mind. As part of a pioneering program to look for common ground between the two warring disciplines, Casey Schwartz spent one year immersed in psychoanalytic theory at the Anna Freud Centre, and the next year studying the brain among Yale’s cutting-edge neuroscientists. She came away with a clear picture of the distance between the two fields: while neuroscience is lacking in attention to lived experience, psychoanalysis is often too ephemeral and subjective. Armed with this awareness, Schwartz set out to study the main pioneers in the emerging and controversial field of neuropsychoanalysis. With passion and humor, she makes a trenchant argument for a hybrid scientific culture that will allow the two approaches to thrive together.

Book Description
Sua Sponte Latin for “Of Their Own Accord” The 75th Ranger Regiment’s Motto Army Rangers are not born. They are made. The modern 75th Ranger Regiment represents the culmination of 250 years of American soldiering.

Granted unprecedented access to the training of this highly restricted component of America’s Special Operations Forces in a time of war, retired Navy captain Dick Couch tells the personal story of the young men who begin this difficult and dangerous journey to become Rangers. Many will try, but only a select few will survive to serve in the 75th Ranger Regiment. Sua Sponte follows a group of these aspiring young warriors through the crucible that is Ranger training and their preparation for direct-action missions in Afghanistan against America’s enemies, anywhere, any time, and under any conditions.

Jake Collin, a modern day cowboy in western Montana, "was" the town's most wooed after "hunk-of-hunks", until a stranger wandered into town, Nan, who had sexy and friendly dialed up to a full blown 10+. Jake & Nan married, and at the start, life was peaches & cream... until lately. Nan did a 180 change, took up residence on the living room couch, and now does nothing except bitch, eat, brood, watch TV... but supplies extra helpings of rolling in the hay. Truth is, Nan is a behaviorally modified clone, sent to coerce Jake into a very large illicit placer gold mining deal. Nan's 180 is a malfunction in her microchip implants... caused by her human instincts of love for Jake, and life away from her creator. A wild plant growing in the Amazon is at the story's root. The plant IS the tree of life... cures everything... and makes cloning humans easy. "The Creator", the story's top evil genius, holds the secret of the plants location from the world, and uses its powers to perpetuate his business ventures... like cloning suicide bombers with explosives implanted into their bodies that can be telepathically implemented. The free world wants the Amazon plant and to end The Creators business. Jake's Couchwife is the catalyst for that end because her human side for true love battles against The Creator's controls. This gives NSA spies clues for operations which saves Jake's life, but he violently loses everything, except his mother's will, His old girlfriend Eda, and a miraculous new life that includes farming the Amazon plant for humanity.
