Health and science journalist Chelsea Conaboy explodes the concept of “maternal instinct” and tells a new story about what it means to become a parent. Conaboy expected things to change with the birth of her child. What she didn’t expect was how different she would feel. But she would soon discover what was behind this: her changing brain. Though Conaboy was prepared for the endless dirty diapers, the sleepless nights, and the joy of holding her newborn, she did not anticipate this shift in self, as deep as it was disorienting. Mother Brain is a groundbreaking exploration of the parental brain that untangles insidious myths from complicated realities. New parents undergo major structur...
Situated on top of the bluffs facing Long Island Sound, Miller Place is a treasure trove of Long Island history. With the arrival of the railroad in the late 1800s, the beaches became a popular holiday and summer camp destination. Initially boardinghouses served vacationers until proprietors opened inns and resorts. Throughout the 20th century, Miller Place attracted vacationers from nearby New York City, including Paul Newman, Arthur Miller, and a young Anjelica Huston. Drawn by its bucolic setting, friendly atmosphere, and career opportunities at nearby Stony Brook University and Hospital, commuters in the 1970s and 1980s expanded and updated vacation homes and developed new lots. As the population grew, the civic-minded residents formed their own high school, fire department, historical society, civic association, and the North Shore Youth Council. Miller Place's historic homes, natural spaces, and strong public schools make the hamlet a desirable place to raise a family.

The contributions are grouped in topics which deal with General Track 1: Computational Methods, Algorithms and Scientific Applications; General Track 2: High Performance Computing and Networks; General Track 3: Geometric Modeling, Graphics and Visualization; General Track 4: Advanced and Emerging Applications; General Track 5: Information Systems and Technologies; General Track 6: Urban and Regional Planning; and PHD Showcase Papers.
Książka, która obala koncepcję „instynktu macierzyńskiego” i opowiada na nowo, co to znaczy zostać rodzicem. Conaboy spodziewała się, że sytuacja zmieni się wraz z narodzinami jej dziecka – nie spodziewała się jednak tego, jak inna się poczuje. Była wprawdzie przygotowana na niekończące się brudne pieluchy, nieprzespane noce i radość z trzymania noworodka, ale nie przewidziała zmian w sobie: głębokich i zarazem dezorientujących. Mózg rodzica to przełomowe dzieło, które rozwiewa podstępne mity ze skomplikowanej – i otoczonej tabu – tematyki. Świeżo upieczonym rodzicom przeobraża się mózg. Zmiany wywołują hormony i zalew bodźców dostarczanych prze...

As mudanças pelas quais passamos quando nos tornamos responsáveis pelos cuidados de um bebê são enormes e variadas. Nesta investigação rigorosa e acessível, a jornalista Chelsea Conaboy mostra como nosso cérebro se transforma para se adaptar às novas demandas — e como a romantização da maternidade é, na verdade, um perigoso mecanismo de controle social. A chegada de um bebê provoca uma verdadeira revolução. As modificações que acompanham o nascimento aparecem não apenas na rotina, mas também no corpo e na mente das pessoas responsáveis pelo cuidado. Embora as recomendações e os conselhos frequentemente recaiam sobre a relação entre mãe e filho(a), essa capacidade n...
EIN KIND ÄNDERT ALLES – aber was eigentlich genau? Ein Kind ändert alles. Viele Eltern hören diese Worte, doch was dahintersteht, darüber wird meist geschwiegen. Der ominöse Baby-Blues soll nach der Geburt rasch verklingen, und dank Mutterinstinkt wird die vergessliche Mama das Kind schon schaukeln. Doch was wissen wir tatsächlich über die Veränderungen, die unser Gehirn in der Schwangerschaft, der Geburt und der turbulenten Zeit danach erfährt? In ihrem Buch belegt die preisgekrönte Journalistin Chelsea Conaboy, selbst zweifache Mutter, wie weit viele Verklärungen der Elternschaft an der Realität vorbeigehen. Aus einer Geburt geht nicht nur ein neuer Mensch hervor, sondern min...
