The Mediated Mind
Author: Susan Zieger
Publisher: Fordham Univ Press
ISBN: 0823279847
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
How did we arrive at our contemporary consumer media economy? Why are we now fixated on screens, imbibing information that constantly expires, and longing for more direct or authentic kinds of experience? The Mediated Mind answers these questions by revisiting a previous media revolution, the nineteenth-century explosion of mass print. Like our own smartphone screens, printed paper and imprinted objects touched the most intimate regions of nineteenth-century life. The rise of this printed ephemera, and its new information economy, generated modern consumer experiences such as voracious collecting and curating, fantasies of disembodied mental travel, and information addiction. Susan Zieger demonstrates how the nineteenth century established affective, psychological, social, and cultural habits of media consumption that we still experience, even as pixels supersede paper. Revealing the history of our own moment, The Mediated Mind challenges the commonplace assumption that our own new media lack a past, or that our own experiences are unprecedented.

Philosophical Letters of David K. Lewis
Author: David K. Lewis
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192597612
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 881
Book Description
David Kellogg Lewis (1941-2001) was one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. He made significant contributions to almost every area of analytic philosophy including metaphysics, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of science, and set the agenda for various debates in these areas which carry on to this day. In several respects he remains a contemporary figure, yet enough time has now passed for historians of philosophy to begin to study his place in twentieth century thought. His philosophy was constructed and refined not just through his published writing, but also crucially through his life-long correspondence with fellow philosophers, including leading figures such as D.M. Armstrong, Saul Kripke, W.V. Quine, J.J.C. Smart, and Peter van Inwagen. His letters formed the undercurrent of his published work and became the medium through which he proposed many of his well-known theories and discussed a range of philosophical topics in depth. A selection of his vast correspondence over a 40-year period is presented here across two volumes. As metaphysics is arguably where Lewis made his greatest contribution, this forms the focus of Volume 1. Arranged under the broad areas of Causation, Modality, and Ontology, the letters offer an organic story of the origins, development, breadth, and depth of his metaphysics in its historical context, as well as a glimpse into the influence of his many interlocutors. This volume will be an indispensable resource for contemporary metaphysics and for those interested in the Lewisian perspective.

The World's Largest Man
Author: Harrison Scott Key
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062351524
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Winner of the 2016 Thurber Prize Harrison Scott Key was born in Memphis, but he grew up in Mississippi, among pious Bible-reading women and men who either shot things or got women pregnant. At the center of his world was his larger-than-life father—a hunter, a fighter, a football coach, "a man better suited to living in a remote frontier wilderness of the nineteenth century than contemporary America, with all its progressive ideas and paved roads and lack of armed duels. He was a great man, and he taught me many things: how to fight and work and cheat and how to pray to Jesus about it, how to kill things with guns and knives and, if necessary, with hammers." Harrison, with his love of books and excessive interest in hugging, couldn't have been less like Pop, and when it became clear that he was not able to kill anything very well, or otherwise make his father happy, he resolved to become everything his father was not: an actor, a Presbyterian, and a doctor of philosophy. But when it was time to settle down and start a family of his own, Harrison began to view his father in a new light and realized—for better and for worse—how much like his old man he'd become. Sly, heartfelt, and tirelessly hilarious, The World's Largest Man is an unforgettable memoir—the story of a boy's struggle to reconcile himself with an impossibly outsize role model, and a grown man's reckoning with the father it took him a lifetime to understand.

Real Influence
Author: Mark Goulston
Publisher: AMACOM Div American Mgmt Assn
ISBN: 081442015X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
People won't put up with being "sold" anymore. If they sense they are being pushed, their guard goes up-and even if they do comply, lingering resentment undermines the relationship...maybe forever. Yet, most books on influence still portray it as something you "do to" someone else to get your way. That out-of-date approach invites resistance or cynicism from those who recognize the techniques. Manipulative tactics might occasionally wear down a colleague's or client's resistance, but they fail to produce the mutual trust that sustains successful relationships. In short, they just won't work in our sophisticated, post-selling world. In this groundbreaking book, authors Mark Goulston and John Ullmen reveal a new model for authentic influence-the kind that creates a strong initial connection and survives long after agreement has been reached. Based on listening, genuine engagement and commitment to win-win outcomes, Real Influence provides a powerful four-step method you can use to: * Examine your priorities * Learn about the key players and what they need * Earn their attention and motivate them to hear more * Add value with your questions and actions Complete with examples of the steps in action and insights from real-world "power influencers," this one-of-a-kind guide shows that being straight with everyone means winning for all. www.getrealinfluence.com

Vibrational Harmony
Author: Beverly Nadler CMT CH
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1466919612
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
This amazing book leads you out of the old paradigm of The Material Model that makes change so difficult, into the revolutionary new paradigm for the 21st century --The Energy Model that makes change easier and more harmonious. In addition, VIBRATIONAL HARMONY Clarifies the little-understood relationship between what you want, the Universal Laws (laws of energy and physics that govern your life), your mind, your subconscious programming, and what you actually get. Explains the workings of your awesome mind conscious, subconscious and Superconscious - and teaches you how to overcome its resistance to change, so you can live the life you desire. Shows you how the Universal Laws of Vibration, Polarity, Rhythm, Cause and Effect, etc., operate, so you can be on harmony with them and create and attract what you want. Correlates and integrates ancient wisdom and metaphysics with modern psychology, leading edge science and quantum physics, so you can see the threads that run through all true teachings. Ends confusion and frustration by filling in gaps and missing links in the massive amount of often conflicting teachings. Describes the exciting new field of mind-body healing called Energy Psychology and shows you how to use extremely effective, yet simple, healing techniques. Most importantly, VIBRATIONAL HARMONY gives you powerful tools and techniques, plus step-by-step processes to release your negative beliefs, emotions and programs and reprogram yourself to create and attract more success, health, happiness, peace of mind...whatever YOU want! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vibrational Harmony: The Real Secret of Success, Health and Happiness Beverly Nadler, CMT, CH Trafford Publishing, 255 pages, (paperback) $17.48, 978-1466919594 (Reviewed: August, 2012) Six years ago, Rhonda Byrne, an Australian television writer and producer, authored the wildly popular self-help book, The Secret, in which she instructed readers on how to tune into life-affirming energy and achieve limitless success. Dozens of books have since been released promising similar results. Beverly Nadlers Vibrational Harmony joins the list, and despite the glut, its a welcome addition. What makes Nadlers book worthy is her clarity in explaining what might otherwise be a complex concept. Everything is energy and everything includes you, Nadler writes. Your energy field radiates into the Universe and attracts the people, things, events, situations and circumstances that your vibrations are in harmony with, and these become your life. It follows that good energy attracts positive results. Negative energy? Not so much. Comparing the brain to a computer, Nadler seamlessly leads her readers through a five-stage course of reprogramming, which includes Awareness, Identification, Releasing, Installing and Integrating. There is nothing woo-woo about Nadlers approach. She offers step-by-step instructions on how to relinquish a Material Model in which our thinking is negative and full of limits and substitute it for an Energy Model which, among other benefits, guarantees Spiritual communication and Divine intervention, as well as the ability to heal physical problems from cold symptoms to pain. Nadler might have added grist to her thesis by including case studies, which would have illustrated her concepts in action. But for those who can accept her premise without needing personal anecdotes to firm up their belief, good vibes are guaranteed. Also available as an ebook. ---------------------------------------- Reader's Testimonials Vibrational Harmony is the most explosively powerful toolbox of self-help ever written. I credit Beverly with turning my life around. She helped me reconcile years of memories filled with abuse, and the techniques in her book empowered me to move from living as a victim to living juicy. If youve tried everything and your life still is not working, you better run, not walk to get this book. Andrea Amador, Empowerment Coach, Author of Loving the Skin Youre In Vibrational Harmony isnt merely a book; its a portal to endless opportunity and a lifetime of success and happiness! Beverly inspires elevating energies to higher frequencies as she puts a positive spin on life and all it has to offer! It was a thrill to have her on our TV show!

Beverly Nadler's vision and message is clearly articulated and communicated. For the genuine seeker of truth and knowledge, this book will be the KEY to unlocking the foundational SECRET of Success in every aspect of life. Buy it and read it over and over until you have taken full hold of its message of transforming power Mark Campese, Inspirational Speaker, Life Coach, Business Development Consultant When I read the original version of Vibrational Harmony, I was so impressed I asked Beverly if I could write the Forward. I had read many self-help books, but none like hers. When she told me she was revising the book, I couldnt imagine how or why. Then I read this new revised version and was amazed. The new chapters, the expansion of several chapters, her personal story and clarification of the powerful energy techniques she teaches makes the revise3d Vibrational Harmony a must read for anyone who is on a personal growth journey, spiritual journey or both even if you read the original version. Joyce E. Barrie, Success Coach, Host of Joyce Barrie & Friends Internet Radio Show. Beverly Nadlers Vibrational Harmony brings breakthrough insights in the self-development field that allow you to be, do, and have all you yearn for and are intended to be. Theres been a revolution as far-reaching as anything humanitys ever witnessed, and only the few even know its happened. It all began, she explains, with physicists who ventured into the sub-atomic world, in which they discovered solidity was the "illusion" and the real reality is conscious energy. And, being wavelike-and electrical, it operates differently than the 3 dimensional world. The classical Material Model thinking everything is hard, 3 dimensional and difficult to change was the appropriate level of evolution during our recent epoch of development. And thats why things looked that way. Vibrational Harmony leads you all the way from an introduction to this new view of the world, to embracing The Energy Model, to finally manifest the good things you want in life. Its quantum!
