- Brainscapes [sound recording] : the warped, wondrous maps written in your brain--and how they guide you / by Schwarzlose, Rebecca,author,narrator.;
Narrated by the author.A path-breaking journey into the brain, showing how perception, thought, and action are products of maps etched into your gray matter, and how technology can use them to read your mind.Introduction -- An atlas of you: what is a brain map? -- The tyranny of numbers: why brain maps exist -- How brain maps determine what we see and feel -- Out of the ether: brain maps for hearing -- Brain maps and codes for taste and smell -- On the move: brain maps for action -- Maps in the making: how brain maps develop and adapt -- Knowing again: brain maps for recognition -- Imagining, remembering, and paying attention with brain maps -- Comprehending and communicating with brain maps -- Maps as portals: mind reading and mind writing with brain maps -- How brain maps weigh us down and how we rise above them.

- Physics in mind : a quantum view of the brain / by Loewenstein, Werner R.(CARDINAL)646471;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 281-307) and index."In Physics in Mind, eminent biophysicist Werner R. Loewenstein seeks answers to these perplexing questions in the mechanisms of physics. Bringing information theory--the idea that all information can be quantified and encoded in bits--to bear on recent advances in the neurosciences, Loewenstein reveals inside the brain a web of immense computational power capable of rendering a coherent representation of the world outside. He guides us on an exhilarating journey along the sensory data stream of the brain--the stream that nurses our cognitions--and we see how the vast amounts of information coming in from the world outside get processed by the web, how its neurons gradually extract meaning from this hodgepodge, and how they arrive at a coherent picture of the world"--

- The developing mind : how relationships and the brain interact to shape who we are / by Siegel, Daniel J.,1957-author.(CARDINAL)351458;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 551-652) and index.This highly influential work--now in a revised and expanded third edition incorporating major advances in the field--gives clinicians, educators, and students a new understanding of what the mind is, how it grows, and how to promote healthy development and resilience. Daniel J. Siegel synthesizes cutting-edge research from multiple disciplines, revealing the ways in which neural processes are fundamentally shaped by interpersonal relationships throughout life. And even when early experiences are not optimal, building deeper connections to other people and to one's own internal experience remains a powerful resource for growth. Professors praise the book's utility in courses from developmental psychology and child development to neuroscience and counseling. New to This Edition *Incorporates findings from a huge body of recent research; over 1,000 citations added. *Revisits and refines the core hypotheses of interpersonal neurobiology. *Chapter on the experience of belonging and the development of identity. *New or expanded discussions of behavioral epigenetics, the default mode network of the brain, social neuroscience, cultural and gender issues, theory of mind, the Wheel of Awareness contemplative practice, the science of consciousness, and more"--
