The Wandering Mind
Author: Michael C. Corballis
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022623861X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
Corballis argues that mind-wandering has many constructive and adaptive features. These range from mental time travel?the wandering back and forth through time, not only to plan our futures based on past experience, but also to generate a continuous sense of who we are--to the ability to inhabit the minds of others, increasing empathy and social understanding. Through mind-wandering, we invent, tell stories, and expand our mental horizons. Mind wandering , hardly the sign of a faulty network or aimless distraction, actually underwrites creativity, whether as a Wordsworth wandering lonely as a cloud, or an Einstein imagining himself travelling on a beam of light. Corballis takes readers on a mental journey in chapters that can be savored piecemeal, as the minds of readers wander in different ways, and sometimes have limited attentional capacity.

“My Life’S Adventures”
Author: Bernard Tinker
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1546216588
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
This book deals with situations of living through the German occupation of Norway from 1940, including shortages of food and heat, all under a threatening occupation by the Hitlerite German Army. My father was imprisoned in Germany for five years while we survived without his strength and abilities. At eleven years old, I escaped imprisonment or death when caught by a German soldier in the wrong place. The story moves to a totally different environment in Nigeria, with another culture that was about to be changed by the removal of British control. This gives a picture of the beginning of large changes. Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip attended the liberation ceremony in Benin. This book also includes a number of images of the life of the African and English cultures. This includes the problems of living with noxious tropical diseases and pests. Bernard returned to Britain to continue work and studies but, unfortunately, developed a serious disease, cerebral vasculitis, that they did not think he would survive. Fortunately, he has and is still active.

The Wandering Beloved
Author: David Small
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1491776994
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 113
Book Description
Wanna know what the problem is? Its God. Deep down inside, in that quiet place in our heart and soul, the problem is we dont know if he is real. I was betrayed by the church, hurt by the leaders and the ones I looked up too, and embarassed about how Christians behave. So I walked away. For more than a decade I left it all behind, I didnt need God. I equated all the hurt and bitterness the church had caused me with God. But thats not God. After a decade focused on my career, my wealth, my happiness, my desires, I found myself on a wild adventure with God. Through the army, coaching professional hockey in Europe, helping victims of war in Burma, and a long walk in Spain, I slowly began to see the true nature and character of God. He wasnt into rules and religion, he didnt want me to memorize the Bible and follow all the traditions, he just wanted my heart. Through my struggle with depression I learned that God is real, not because of some warm fuzzy feeling I had one time, but I actually mathematically concluded that God is real. Want to meet the real Jesus? Want to know if God is really real? Come on an adventure with me.
