Karl Pearson
"Theodore Porter's portrait of Pearson extends from religious crisis and sexual tensions to metaphysical and even mathematical anxieties. Pearson sought to reconcile reason with enthusiasm and to achieve the impersonal perspective of science without sacrificing complex individuality. Even as he longed to experience nature directly and intimately, he identified science with renunciation and positivistic detachment. Porter finds a turning point in Pearson's career, where his humanistic interests gave way to statistical ones, in his Grammar of Science (1892), in which he attempted to establish scientific method as the moral educational basis for a refashioned culture."--BOOK JACKET.
How to Live an Awesome Life
Awe. It is about wonder. About accessing the amazing to express reverence, admiration. Awe like this can show up in every aspect of our lives – even those we declare as not so great. When we can look at all aspects of our lives with this kind wonder and admiration, awe changes us. We are broken open by it. It forces us to rethink things. To tweak our behaviors and choices. To move toward things that matter. Psychologist Nicholas Humphrey says awe forces us to reconfigure our mental model so we can make sense of what we’ve seen and experienced. It broadens us, inspires us. Awe then, has the ability to awaken us. It can show us the beauty that already exists and remind us who we are at our...

Children and young persons in custody 2009-10
This report sets out how young people aged 15 to 18 described their own experience of imprisonment in 2009-10. This is the sixth report to be published jointly between HM Inspectorate of Prisons and the Youth Justice Board, and the evidence has been collected from 19 establishments and 1,162 children and young people. The number of children and young people in custody fell during 2009-10 from 2,126 to 1,724. This may mean both the treatment directed to the young people who remain can be more effectively and individually targeted but also that imprisonment is now increasingly focused on the most troubled and troublesome young people. The survey looked at: the experiences of young men and women; had things improved?; the experiences of young men and women from black and minority ethnic backgrounds; the experiences of Muslim young men; and how did dedicated establishments compare to split sites.

Perspective Taking: building a neurocognitive framework for integrating the “social” and the “spatial”
Background: Interacting with other people involves spatial awareness of one’s own body and the other’s body and viewpoint. In the past, social cognition has focused largely on belief reasoning, which is abstracted away from spatial and bodily representations, while there is a strong tradition of work on spatial and object representation which does not consider social interactions. These two domains have flourished independently. A small but growing body of research examines how awareness of space and body relates to the ability to interpret and interact with others. This also builds on the growing awareness that many cognitive processes are embodied, which could be of relevance for the i...
