An examination of the link between the vigor with which we move and the value that the brain assigns to the goal of the movement. Why do we reflexively run toward people we love, but only walk toward others? In Vigor, Reza Shadmehr and Alaa Ahmed examine the link between how the brain assigns value to things and how it controls our movements. They find that brain regions thought to be principally involved in decision making also affect movement vigor—and that brain regions thought to be principally responsible for movement also bias patterns of decision making. Shadmehr and Ahmed first consider the relationship of value and vigor from a behavioral and mathematical perspective, considering ...

Nour

In a heart-stirring story of love for family and one’s country, author Clara Brito brings forth the dramatic life account of Nour, a little girl who grows up during the harrowing Civil War period in Lebanon. Nour was born and raised in Lebanon. Using a first-hand account, she tells of the incidents of violence and atrocities of the war, as well as the torture and heartbreak that altered her life forever. Through this heartrending narrative, readers will realize how the innocence of her childhood was ripped out of her heart and mind, and replaced by resentment, fear, and disgust. It was indeed a difficult era. The civil war started in 1975, and it involved religious and political groups. The bombings, gunfire, and airstrikes lead to tragic deaths and total destruction of the country. No one escaped from this tragic war; not one was left unharmed—physically or emotionally. How will these harsh times change Nour’s outlook, family, life, and heart? Readers will find out in this emotive story.

Forced to escape the scene of the crime and go into hiding, Ahmed is ensnared in a web of cover-ups and crimes whose perpetrators stop at nothing to hide.

Intermediate Islamic Finance

"The principal objective of this intermediate book on Islamic finance is to address selected issues in the theory and practice of Islamic finance that typical fall beyond the contents of classic introductory text books on the subject matter.

The list of special topics includes the stability of Islamic finance, the role of ethics, the scope of financial engineering and derivatives, the function of Islamic capital markets, as well as perspectives on Islamic structured finance, corporate finance, and financial inclusion. The book can serve as a guide to hitherto unexplored avenues of research in Islamic finance for graduate and post-graduate students. This book includes: - some reference to case studies and specific problems in the practice of Islamic finance as well as conventional finance - a list of suggested further readings per chapter - appendices that include details of advanced analysis for the purpose of simplifying the level of discussion for advanced undergraduate students - graphs, figures, tables on financial and economic data"--
