Emotional well-being affects every aspect of our lives, including relationships, careers, finances, health, spirituality, and overall happiness. It is not just the absence of depression and anxiety, but also the ability to control emotions and behaviors, cope with life's challenges, handle stress, build strong positive relationships, and bounce back from disappointments and setbacks. This theoretical, practical guide teaches others how to identify self-limiting emotions and tap into the power within to consciously transform thinking and make positive changes in life. "Master Your Emotions - Transform Your Life is simple, easy to understand and profound." -Carl Camelia, Founder and Academic Director Inter-Continental University of the Caribbean "Easy to read and understand, yet profound and transformative. This gem of a book is a must read for anyone interested in spiritual growth and emotional well being." -Dr. Lana Boodhoo M.D., electrophysiologist
Photovoltaic cells provide clean, reversible electrical power from the sun. Made from semiconductors, they are durable, silent in operation and free of polluting emissions. In this book, experts from all sectors of the PV community — materials scientists, physicists, production engineers, economists and environmentalists — give their critical appraisals of where the technology is now and what its prospects are./a
Fullerenes and nanotubes are two classes of carbon structures or allotropes, which were discovered about 17 years ago. Since that time, many chemical derivatives have been synthesized using fullerenes and nanotubes as building blocks. Particularly promising was the theory that the chemical properties of fullerenes, and certain derivatives, made them likely candidates for anticancer drugs, inhibitors of viruses such as HIV, or even as anti-bacterials. Their cyctotoxicity can also be controlled by specific circumstances. In addition, the funtionalization of nanotubes has not only produced relatively simple derivatives, but also complex hybrids with biological macromolecules, which show unique supramolecular architecture and which are promising in many medical applications. The application of fullerenes and nanotubes in medicine is at the frontier of our knowledge, thus the work in this field represents the basis for future novel developments.
With topics ranging from epitaxy through lattice defects and doping to quantum computation, this book provides a personalized survey of the development and use of silicon, the basis for the revolutionary changes in our lives sometimes called "The Silicon Age." Beginning with the very first developments more than 50 years ago, this reports on all aspects of silicon and silicon technology up to its use in exciting new technologies, including a glance at possible future developments.
The mind is our greatest tool but can turn into our worst enemy. When this happens, it can hold you back from achieving almost anything in your life, including mental freedom. While your mind attempts to prolong your life and keep you safe, it can also sabotage your life goals. This book is a collection of thoughts and observations on life and why our constant mental games keep us stuck. These pages will bring to light those mental games because once you know how the game is played, the rules don't matter. Jason is a Veteran, Former Federal Law Enforcement Officer, Personal Trainer, and Mountain Athlete. After his mother was murdered while he served in Afghanistan, and an injury that caused him to question many things about life, Jason became a student of the mind, and why we are so tormented by it. The path was long but has led him to here.
You've probably seen it before: a human brain dramatically lit from the side, the camera circling it like a helicopter shot of Stonehenge, and a modulated baritone voice exalting the brain's elegant design in reverent tones. To which this book says: Pure nonsense. In a work at once deeply learned and wonderfully accessible, the neuroscientist David Linden counters the widespread assumption that the brain is a paragon of design--and in its place gives us a compelling explanation of how the brain's serendipitous evolution has resulted in nothing short of our humanity. A guide to the strange and often illogical world of neural function, The Accidental Mind shows how the brain is not an optimize...
Decision support systems have experienced a marked increase in attention and importance over the past 25 years. The aim of this book is to survey the decision support system (DSS) field – covering both developed territory and emergent frontiers. It will give the reader a clear understanding of fundamental DSS concepts, methods, technologies, trends, and issues. It will serve as a basic reference work for DSS research, practice, and instruction. To achieve these goals, the book has been designed according to a ten-part structure, divided in two volumes with chapters authored by well-known, well-versed scholars and practitioners from the DSS community.
