The Portable Coach
For many years a certified financial advisor with a thriving practice, Thomas Leonard came to realise that he was much more than that to his clients; he was their personal coach, a combination of a career counselor, financial advisor, therapist, and big brother, a person who helps people figure out their goals in life and then works with them to achieve them. Blending profound psychological insights with years of hands-on experience helping people to stop grasping for what they want and start attracting it, Leonard has perfected a programme that enables people to transform their lives in remarkable ways. THE PORTABLE COACH is a vigorous, highly encouraging blueprint for success, filled with inspiring real-life examples as well as Coach University's patented worksheets and checklists. Leonard offers a deceptively simple strategy to help readers build reservoirs of time and energy to devote to attracting abundance in their lives.

Neuroscience and Education
This volume makes a philosophical contribution to the application of neuroscience in education. It frames neuroscience research in novel ways around educational conceptualizing and practices, while also taking a critical look at conceptual problems in neuroeducation and at the economic reasons driving the mind-brain education movement. It offers alternative approaches for situating neuroscience in educational research and practice, including non-reductionist models drawing from Dewey and phenomenological philosophers such as Martin Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty. The volume gathers together an international bevy of leading philosophers of education who are in a unique position to contribute conceptually rich and theoretically framed insight on these new developments. The essays form an emerging dialogue to be used within philosophy of education as well as neuroeducation, educational psychology, teacher education and curriculum studies.
Mind Fit for Success
This book challenges the traditional approach to people development in business. It provides a compelling argument and evidence that giving people knowledge alone does not lead to attitude and behaviour change or tangible results. Today, people need to be agile, flexible, and adaptable to meet the unpredictable future caused by the worldwide economic collapse in 2007. Businesses also need to become more agile. Developing a can do mind-set is a prerequisite to all subsequent development and actions. It is the driver for change. Becoming mind fit is the start point. In many years experience, I have always been concerned that something was missing: that magic extra ingredient to ensure the lear...
The Presence of the Past
The Presence of the Past offers a new perspective on Hollywood's New Wave as engaged with the vitality of sensory experience and the affective imagination. As author Daniel Bishop shows, the soundtracks of several key films of the New Hollywood Cinema of the late 1960s and 70s cultivated an array of sensibilities regarding the American past. This importance of the past exceeded the New Hollywood's acknowledged use of genre revisionism as a vehicle for timely ideological commentary. There was also a vital tendency in this era to locate the past as an object of imagined phenomenal presence. Although this concept of the past never solidified into a self-conscious discourse, it was nevertheless ...
Brain Culture
Brain Culture investigates the American obsession with the health of the brain. Davi Johnson Thornton looks at familiar messages, tracing how brain science and colorful brain images produced by scientific technologies are taken up and distributed in popular media. She tracks the message that, "you are your brain" across multiple contemporary contexts, analyzing its influence on child development, family life, education, and public policy. Our fixation on the brain is not simply a reaction to scientific progress, but a cultural phenomenon tied to values of individualism and limitless achievement.
TV-a-Go-Go
From Elvis and a hound dog wearing matching tuxedos and the comic adventures of artificially produced bands to elaborate music videos and contrived reality-show contests, television--as this critical look brilliantly shows--has done a superb job of presenting the energy of rock in a fabulously entertaining but patently "fake" manner. The dichotomy of "fake" and "real" music as it is portrayed on television is presented in detail through many generations of rock music: the Monkees shared the charts with the Beatles, Tupac and Slayer fans voted for corny American Idols, and shows like" Shindig! "and "Soul Train "somehow captured the unhinged energy of rock far more effectively than most long-h...
The Market in Mind
A critical examination of translational medicine, when private risk is transferred to the public sector and university research teams become tech startups for global investors. A global shift has secretly transformed science and medicine. Starting in 2003, biomedical research in the West has been reshaped by the emergence of translational science and medicine—the idea that the aim of research is to translate findings as quickly as possible into medical products. In The Market in Mind, Mark Dennis Robinson charts this shift, arguing that the new research paradigm has turned university research teams into small biotechnology startups and their industry partners into early-stage investment fi...
