Extrasynaptic neurotransmission as a way of modulating multiple neuronal functions
Extrasynaptic transmission is a unifying term for a wide variety of cellular processes, in which outside of synaptic terminals transmitter substances activate extrasynaptic receptors. Whereas “synaptic transmission” immediately refers to a process occurring at nerve terminals in which the arrival of a presynaptic impulse evokes exocytosis followed by a postsynaptic response within a millisecond time scale, extrasynaptic transmission has a wide diversity of ultrastructural and therefore mechanistic associated phenomena. In comparison to synaptic, extrasynaptic exocytosis may last for seconds or even minutes, thus expanding the timing of neuronal signaling. Extrasynaptic transmission has n...

How to Stay Productive When the World Is Ending
A biting humor collection about the cult of productivity and the feeling of impending doom that comes with it, from Reductress. Juggling careers, maintaining relationships, managing side gigs, and sustaining an engaging social media presence is hard––and we're expected to do it all while battling the ever-present feeling of existential dread against the backdrop of climate catastrophe, an ongoing pandemic, and social isolation. From the editors and most popular writers of Reductress, the only satirical women’s magazine in publication, How to Stay Productive When the World is Ending is a collection of essays, how-tos, and “inspirational” graphics to help you laugh when staying both sane and productive in a commodified world feels impossible. From “’Doing What You Love’ and Why That’s Bad,” to "Why I'm Prioritizing My Career Over Finding a Better Career," this collection perfectly skewers the indignities, big and small, of living through late-stage capitalism.
A Thousand Brains
A bestselling author, neuroscientist, and computer engineer unveils a theory of intelligence that will revolutionize our understanding of the brain and the future of AI. For all of neuroscience's advances, we've made little progress on its biggest question: How do simple cells in the brain create intelligence? Jeff Hawkins and his team discovered that the brain uses maplike structures to build a model of the world—not just one model, but hundreds of thousands of models of everything we know. This discovery allows Hawkins to answer important questions about how we perceive the world, why we have a sense of self, and the origin of high-level thought. A Thousand Brains heralds a revolution in the understanding of intelligence. It is a big-think book, in every sense of the word.

Tysiąc mózgów w twojej głowie. Nowa teoria inteligencji
Jeśli zdarza wam się zjeść ciasto, chociaż bardzo usilnie myśleliście o tym, że nie powinniście tego robić, mam dla was dobrą wiadomość – to nie kwestia waszej słabej woli, po prostu wasz „stary” mózg po raz kolejny wygrał walkę z nowym. Tak, macie w głowie więcej niż jeden mózg. Być może macie ich nawet tysiące. Jak to możliwe. Rewolucyjna teoria inteligencji tysiąca mózgów, która zachwyciła Billa Gatesa i Richarda Dawkinsa, tłumaczy, że ludzki mózg początkowo skupiał się wyłącznie na rywalizacji i prymitywnym przetrwaniu. Dopiero potem nauczył się wykorzystywać układy odniesienia i przyswoił model świata, dzięki czemu jako gatunek zaczęliśmy współodczuwać, tworzyć, a przede wszystkim myśleć. Czy to wystarczy, aby zapewnić nam świetlaną przyszłość? Nie. Nasz „stary” mózg wciąż nas sabotuje, podsycając nasze obawy i kontrolując popędy. Żeby pokonać nasze ograniczenia i w pełni odblokować nasz potencjał, musimy mu się przeciwstawić. Jeff Hawkins na szczęście wie, jak wygrać tę walkę.
