Mind-Body Problem Solved
Mental illness is the number one health issue worldwide. It’s unsolvable. We can not fix the mind when we don’t know what it is… until now. The Explanation reveals the theology of Genesis 2:7 and Neshama solving the consciousness-mind-body connection. Now we can tackle the grassroots of mental questions with hope and assurance, mapping out how you see yourself and loved ones in the five primary areas affecting each of us: purpose, conduct, reasoning, socialization, and rulership. This process reveals how to take care of your mental health and positively impact your family, friends, and colleagues. + Identify consciousness and mind, how they function, and why you received them. This priceless wisdom revolutionizes psychology and spirituality. + Emerge from preventive and remedial confusion and take practical step-by-step measures to avert or cure mental issues. + Pinpoint your personal way of life, leading to a sound mind. + Zoom in on your life’s purpose and be confident you’re reaching your objectives. Get your COMPASS: Consciousness and Mind in Psychology And Sound Spirituality™.
Geochemical and Hydrological Reactivity of Heavy Metals in Soils
The hydrological and geochemical interactions between clay minerals and organic matter in soils directly influence the reaction, behavior, and mobility of heavy metals in soils. Geochemical and Hydrological Reactivity of Heavy Metals in Soils is one of few books that comprehensively illustrates this cause-and-effect relationship. It highlights anal
Searching for Life Across Space and Time
The search for life is one of the most active fields in space science and involves a wide variety of scientific disciplines, including planetary science, astronomy and astrophysics, chemistry, biology, chemistry, and geoscience. In December 2016, the Space Studies Board hosted a workshop to explore the possibility of habitable environments in the solar system and in exoplanets, techniques for detecting life, and the instrumentation used. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
Frontiers in Nano and Micro-Device Design for Applied Nanophotonics, Biophotonics and Nanomedicine
This reference informs readers about nanoscale design and synthesis of different nanomaterials. Chapters of the book account for variable nanoarchitecture, while explaining concepts which are central to the field of nanotechnology. It explains how nanodevices and microdevices can be used for nanophotonics, biophotonics and drug delivery applications. Advanced biochemical techniques ranging from fluorescence, plasmonics, enhanced plasmonics (EP) to metal enhanced fluorescence (MEF) from colloidal dispersion to single luminescent nanoplatforms and nanospectroscopy, microfluidics, nanofluidics, silica wave-guiding, lasers, nanolasers and photonic circuits for enhanced signal detections are also...
Molecular Modeling of Geochemical Reactions
Molecular processes in nature affect human health, the availability of resources and the Earth’s climate. Molecular modelling is a powerful and versatile toolbox that complements experimental data and provides insights where direct observation is not currently possible. Molecular Modeling of Geochemical Reactions: An Introduction applies computational chemistry to geochemical problems. Chapters focus on geochemical applications in aqueous, petroleum, organic, environmental, bio- and isotope geochemistry, covering the fundamental theory, practical guidance on applying techniques, and extensive literature reviews in numerous geochemical sub-disciplines. Topics covered include: • Theory and...
Report Series: Committee on Astrobiology and Planetary Science
The Committee on Astrobiology and Planetary Sciences of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is tasked with monitoring the progress in implementation of the recommendations of the most recent planetary science decadal survey, Vision and Voyages for Planetary Science in the Decade 2013-2022. Planetary science decadal surveys evaluate the state of the field, identify the most important scientific questions and themes, and prioritize missions and activities for the decade in question based on scientific merit, technical feasibility, and anticipated cost. The need for careful monitoring is underscored by the fact that some of the decadal survey's recommendations are trig...
Biomineralization Sourcebook
What does it mean to be at the forefront of a characterization technique? Novel implementation and research, finding new ways to visualize composites, and new techniques all play a role. Yet with the myriad of advances in the field, keeping up with new and advanced techniques, often from many different areas, has become a challenge. Biomineralization Sourcebook: Characterization of Biominerals and Biomimetic Materials emphasizes the interplay between multiple techniques at their current frontiers and explores how such studies may be carried out. The book addresses atomic and molecular structure: how it is described, detected, and assessed for importance. It then highlights additional measure...
