Why Science Needs Art
Why Science Needs Art explores the complex relationship between these seemingly polarised fields. Reflecting on a time when art and science were considered inseparable and symbiotic pursuits, the book discusses how they have historically informed and influenced each other, before considering how public perception of the relationship between these disciplines has fundamentally changed. Science and art have something very important in common: they both seek to reduce something infinitely complex to something simpler. Using examples from diverse areas including microscopy, brain injury, classical art, and data visualization, the book delves into the history of the intersection of these two disc...

Handbook of Prevention and Alzheimer’s Disease
It is almost 120 years since Alzheimer’s disease (AD) was first reported, and the concept of modifiable risk factors associated with the disease has been present from the outset. Thus, the idea of preventing AD is not new, with reference to strategies noted as early as the 1990s. This subfield of AD research has matured in recent years, with the number of modifiable risk factors – the AD preventome – rising from the 7 initially identified to the current 12, with an estimated contribution to dementia cases worldwide of about 40%. This book, the Handbook of Prevention and Alzheimer’s Disease, introduces physicians, scientists, and other stakeholders to this subfield of AD research. It ...

Ignote stelle
È un’emozione sincera quella che ci accoglie fin dalle prime parole scambiate, una timidezza mista a imbarazzo, quello di chi crede di “non essere all’altezza”, che è un sentimento bellissimo, in realtà, quando corrisponde, come in questo caso, al mettere in costante dubbio non le proprie emozioni o le proprie esperienze, ma le forme con cui esse vogliamo prendano luce. Questo diventa il canale preferenziale per non fermarsi mai, per accarezzare in continuazione il proprio animo, cercando di levigarlo dalle asperità del vivere e trasformare i trucioli caduti in vita, in poesia. Enrica Francesca Farina è nata a Pavia il 12 luglio 1965 e vive a Garlasco. Questa è la sua prima pubblicazione.
Women Talk More Than Men
Do women talk more than men? Does text messaging make you stupid? Can chimpanzees really talk to us? This fascinating textbook addresses a wide range of language myths, focusing on important big-picture issues such as the rule-governed nature of language or the influence of social factors on how we speak. Case studies and analysis of relevant experiments teach readers the skills to become informed consumers of social science research, while suggested open-ended exercises invite students to reflect further on what they've learned. With coverage of a broad range of topics (cognitive, social, historical), this textbook is ideal for non-technical survey courses in linguistics. Important points are illustrated with specific, memorable examples: invariant 'be' shows the rule-governed nature of African-American English; vulgar female speech in Papua New Guinea shows how beliefs about language and gender are culture-specific. Engaging and accessibly written, Kaplan's lively discussion challenges what we think we know about language.
