A critical look at our modeling techniques, and what idealized modeling can tell us, if anything, about the mind and brain. In The Idealized Brain, Michael Kirchhoff explores the challenges of using idealized modeling in computational neuroscience. The book spans work on neural coding, deep learning, machine learning, AI, philosophy of cognitive science, and philosophy of science. The author addresses many of the epistemic uses and harms of idealization across multiple scales and paradigms—from early biophysical models, information theory, neural coding, and deep convolutional neural networks to explainable AI—highlighting connections that should have far-reaching consequences for both philosophy of cognitive science, methodology in computational neuroscience, and how we communicate the results of our research. Kirchhoff argues that we need to place approximation methods such as idealization at the heart of our discussions in computational neuroscience, philosophy of neuroscience, philosophy of cognitive science, and philosophy of mind. Only then can we make progress to ensure that our interpretations of computational modeling of the mind and brain are robust and on a secure epistemic and metaphysical footing.

The Group Relations Conferences Series

Identity, Theory, and Practice in Group Relations presents a range of perspectives on group relations, capturing both a social scientific and psychoanalytic perspective.Each chapter explores themes of identity, theory, and practice, where the process of looking at others and oneself is amplified, and the task of exploring the space we occupy is changed. Identity, Theory and Practice in Group Relations includes discussion of critical race theory, corruption, Black leadership and sibling relations, the role of technology and how it has been adopted and adapted by group relations practitioners, as well as specific perspectives on group relations in Italy and China and reflections on group relations through the COVID-19 pandemic.This book will be an invaluable resource for practitioners, academics and scholars of Group Relations, as well as managers and organisational members wanting to learn more about how Groups Relations methods can contribute to their organisational success.

Halo

"2552. The theocratic military alliance known as the Covenant is showing no mercy as it continues to assault every human world it encounters, but in the way lies humanity's greatest champion, the super-soldier Spartan John-117--the Master Chief. Together with his AI companion Cortana and the last remaining Spartans, the galaxy-spanning fight rages on two fronts following the destruction of the human military stronghold Reach by Covenant forces and the mysterious artificial ringworld known as 'Halo' at the hands of the Master Chief"--Back cover.

Halo: First Strike: Volume 3

"2552. Having barely escaped the final battle for Reach against the vast alien alliance known as the Covenant, the crew of the Pillar of Autumn, including Spartan John-117--the Master Chief--and his AI companion Cortana, is forced to make a desperate escape into slipspace. But their destination brings them to an ancient mystery and an even greater struggle. In this far-flung corner of the universe floats a magnificently massive, artificial ringworld. The crew's only hope of survival is to crash-land on its surface and take the battle opposing the Covenant to the ground"--Back cover.

The Biohistory of Feminism&nbsp;is a multilayered project that incorporates evolutionary biology to argue that behaviors labelled feminist by human cultures are already found in nature, and that there is no one path to being female.&nbsp;On a planet where asexual reproduction dominates, intersex and parthenogenesis exist and eusocial females contribute to their colonies without reproducing, being female goes beyond motherhood stereotypes dear to those who attempt to perpetuate a universal idea&nbsp;of male dominance in human history. Feminism exists naturally as a series of efforts to express oneself in a multiplicity of ways freely chosen-including the attainment of alpha status as a social animal, managing resources and forming alliances. Elephant matriarchs and alpha female bonobos&nbsp;were&nbsp;there among social animals before the appearance of human monarchs like Wu Zetian and contemporary politicians like Angela Merkel and cultural leaders like Wangari Maathai. Female dolphins and chimpanzees taught cultural traditions before the intellectual achievements of literary figures like Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz and scientists like Jane Goodall. The diversity of female expression in nature&nbsp;is natural.&nbsp;

The Biohistory of Feminism

Kaum jemand weiß heute noch, dass zwischen 1860 und 1930 Feuersteinwerkzeuge geborgen wurden, die weit älter sind als die heute allgemein beachteten ältesten Steinwerkzeuge. Diese Funde wurden damals von führenden Wissenschaftlern anerkannt, gerieten jedoch in Vergessenheit. Die Hersteller der fein gearbeiteten, z.T. ergonomisch geformten Werkzeuge lebten lange vor den Mensch-Tier-Übergangsformen, die die herkömmlichen Entstehungstheorien benennen. Michael Brandt nimmt diese Werkzeugfunde neu in den Fokus und zeigt: Eine Evolution des Menschen wird durch diese Funde sehr infrage gestellt. Eine erweiterte Neuauflage des interessanten Buches mit erstaunlichen Erkenntnissen.

From spiritual guide and teacher Aycee Brown, a warm and inviting handbook to discovering wholeness by embodying your truth and embracing your power.When Aycee Brown was a child, her connection to spirit made her feel like an outcast, until her grandmother helped her see this burden as a gift. Now, Aycee helps readers—as well as clients and “Is My Aura on Straight?” podcast listeners—map their journey from trauma to wholeness.Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach, Aycee teaches us which healing modality to use, when. Embarking on a soul journey, readers will explore different parts of themselves and step into their own story by exploring the canyon, or shadow self, through the following modalities: <ul><li>Knowing Your Story—The Embodiment of Validation</li><li>Psychic Channeling—The Embodiment of Anger</li><li>Astrology—The Embodiment of Self</li><li>Numerology—The Embodiment of Alignment</li><li>Mediumship—The Embodiment of Truth</li><li>Metaphysics—The Embodiment of Choice</li><li>Human Design for Liberation—The Embodiment of Change</li><li>I Am—The Embodiment of Destiny (Internal Family Systems therapy)</li></ul> As readers engage with these practices, their intuition grows stronger and paths are revealed. With Aycee holding our hand, we can connect to our truth and realize our wildest dreams. We become more capable of having healthy relationships, finding joy in our lives, and maintaining loving connections with those we have lost.Embody Your Magic invites the conversations you’ve been waiting to have and reveals the psychic magic within you.

Embody Your Magic

From the popular and award-winning staff writer for The Atlantic, an eye-opening look at how the current media landscape has incentivized us to see our fellow citizens as characters in an ongoing entertainment—and how we can fight back against this phenomenon.Whether it’s our reality-television-star President or our expertly curated Instagram feeds, the line between fact and fiction—between what’s real and what’s fabricated for entertainment—has never been more blurred. Screen People explores what happens when we cede our reality to spectacle. Megan Garber explains how today’s internet-inflected culture conditions us to see one another not as people but as characters in an ongoing show, and how some of our most chronic and harmful social conditions—loneliness, depression, mistrust, misinformation, cynicism—stem from our demand for diversion.In ten chapters, each themed around an element of entertainment—from “The Producers,” who edit our reality, to “The Extras,” the strangers we turn into objects of our amusement, to “the Haters,” the worshipful Qanon-types who expect the prophecies of their anonymous leader to play out on live television—Garber argues that this comedy of our daily lives is quickly becoming tragedy. And we can’t understand our politics without first understanding our culture.Like The Anxious Generation but about our media diet, Screen People shows why Megan Garber is one of the most respected and widely-read journalists of our day. It is an urgent, page-turning, and dazzling look at how we entertained ourselves into our current predicament, and how we might find our way out of the maze of misinformation and chaos.

Undergraduate Lecture Notes in Physics

This book provides a rigorous and comprehensive exposition of vectors and vector fields, designed for advanced undergraduate students in physics. It presents detailed derivations of essential vector identities, relations involving quantum vector operators, and vector calculus theorems commonly encountered in undergraduate and graduate physics coursework. A complete catalogue of vector identities—spanning both classical and quantum contexts—is presented using index notation and the Einstein summation convention, fostering fluency with tensorial methods and streamlining complex derivations.
Core topics include vector algebra, differential and integral vector calculus, and three-dimensional Taylor expansions, supported by careful treatments of the essential underlying mathematical tools. Advanced subjects—such as the Dirac delta function, Green’s functions, multipole expansions, and Cartesian tensors—are introduced with a balance of formal clarity and pedagogical accessibility. A dedicated chapter on tensor transformations, invariants, and the Levi-Civita and Kronecker symbols offers a foundation for further study in areas such as general relativity and quantum field theory. Each chapter contains numerous worked examples and end-of-chapter problems, all accompanied by complete solutions, making the text well-suited for both structured coursework and independent study.

The Wealth Habit

A “magnificent” (Science) exploration of how genetics complicates our ideas about blame, punishment, and moral responsibility, from acclaimed psychologist and author of The Genetic Lottery Kathryn Paige Harden. “Not a dry, restrained, contained scientific inquiry but a daring, complex, sometimes confounding and ultimately powerful tapestry of a book.”—The New York Times Book Review As one of the world’s leading scientists examining how our DNA shapes differences in temperament, temptation, and behavior, Kathryn Paige Harden has seen firsthand how we continue to struggle—in public and in our most private relationships—with the ancient tensions between nature and nurture, freedom and constraint, the desire to punish and the longing to forgive. In Original Sin, she weaves together insights from her own experience as a daughter, mother, wife, and scientist with cutting-edge research in genetics and psychology to grapple with some of the most important questions in modern life: How do we take responsibility for the people we become, knowing how we are shaped by both biology and experience? How should we respond when people hurt each other—or themselves? And has science made guilt obsolete? Navigating the psychological and biological terrain of addiction, antisocial behavior, and violence, Harden confronts the disorienting ways science unsettles our understanding of wrongdoing and choice. In doing so, she asks us not to absolve but to reckon differently with notions of fairness and blame. A revelatory inquiry into the uneasy space where human behavior meets inherited biology, Original Sin challenges us to imagine a more humane vision of accountability—for ourselves and for one another.
