Book Description
SURRENDERING TO MY SPY: Lady Rosanna Kendall fell in love with the wrong man. He informed her that he never intended to marry, and even if that changed, she'd be the last lady he'd choose. Shortly afterwards her eldest brother died in a freak accident sending her into mourning. During that time she picked up the tattered remains of her heart and hardened it. One day she'd marry and have a family of her own; however, love would be the last thing she'd expect to find. Lord Dominic Rossington, the Marquess of Seabrook worked diligently as a spy for the war office. He led a dangerous life that had no place for a wife or family. He couldn't in good conscience encourage Lady Rosanna--even if she was his greatest desire. Years later Dominic sees a way to free himself of his obligations to the crown and finally claim the one woman he's always wanted. All he has to do is complete one last mission and convince her she's the only one for him. Can they both survive his dangerous life long enough to find their happily-ever-after? SPELLBOUND BY MY CHARMER: Zane Rossington, the Marquess of Seabrook is disillusioned and bored. He doesn't believe in love and lives his life the way he pleases. All of it changes when he finds a mysterious woman roaming around his conservatory at his annual Regency themed charity masquerade ball. Lady Callista Lyon, the Countess of Marin had one desire--revenge. In the act of finally achieving her goal she is swept over a terrace and somehow finds herself in the conservatory at Seabrook Manor. Uncertain if she succeeded in her revenge, but determined to finally move on, she does her best to adapt to her new life. In the midst of chaos and uncertainty, can Zane and Callista discover something in each other they both believed lost to them? STOLEN BY MY KNAVE: Nothing is quite what it seems… Lady Elizabeth Kendall grew up on whimsical tales told by her mother. What if they aren’t stories at all? Visions of a handsome pirate in a mirror create questions about everything she believes. The biggest one: Is time travel possible? A pirate who would be a duke… Jackerson Morgan Carwyn, the Duke of Whitewood hasn’t led the charmed life some believe, and in fact, grew up in the worst parts of London. Except it was a different time and it’s a secret only he knows. Until he meets Elizabeth… She is far more than she appears to be and has information he believed long buried. A battle of wits… Through a chess match they make a bet—the winner claiming all the spoils. As the game comes to an end they are left with a choice. They either decide to be together or destroy any chance they may have at happiness. Will they accept fate’s decision or ignore all the signs that brought them together?

Unlocking the Brain: Volume 2: Consciousness
Author: Georg Northoff
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199383987
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 737
Book Description
Neuroscience has made considerable progress in figuring out how the brain works. We know much about the molecular-genetic and biochemical underpinnings of sensory and motor functions. Recent neuroimaging work has opened the door to investigating the neural underpinnings of higher-order cognitive functions, such as memory, attention, and even free will. In these types of investigations, researchers apply specific stimuli to induce neural activity in the brain and look for the function in question. However, there may be more to the brain and its neuronal states than the changes in activity we induce by applying particular external stimuli. In Volume 2 of Unlocking the Brain, Georg Northoff addresses consciousness by hypothesizing about the relationship between particular neuronal mechanisms and the various phenomenal features of consciousness. Northoff puts consciousness in the context of the resting state of the brain thereby delivering a new point of view to the debate that permits very interesting insights into the nature of consciousness. Moreover, he describes and discusses detailed findings from different branches of neuroscience including single cell data, animal data, human imaging data, and psychiatric findings. This yields a unique and novel picture of the brain, and will have a major and lasting impact on neuroscientists working in neuroscience, psychiatry, and related fields.

Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 0465038611
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
The best-selling guide to network science, the revolutionary field that reveals the deep links between all forms of human social life A cocktail party. A terrorist cell. Ancient bacteria. An international conglomerate. All are networks, and all are a part of a surprising scientific revolution. In Linked, Albert-Lálórabá, the nation's foremost expert in the new science of networks, takes us on an intellectual adventure to prove that social networks, corporations, and living organisms are more similar than previously thought. Barabá shows that grasping a full understanding of network science will someday allow us to design blue-chip businesses, stop the outbreak of deadly diseases, and influence the exchange of ideas and information. Just as James Gleick and the Erdos-Réi model brought the discovery of chaos theory to the general public, Linked tells the story of the true science of the future and of experiments in statistical mechanics on the internet, all vital parts of what would eventually be called the Barabá-Albert model.
