Smellosophy What the Nose Tells the Mind【電子書籍】[ A. S. Barwich ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>An <em>NRC Handelsblad</em> Book of the Year</strong></p> <p>“Offers rich discussions of olfactory perception, the conscious and subconscious impacts of smell on behavior and emotion.”<br /> ー<em>Science</em></p> <p>Decades of cognition research have shown that external stimuli “spark” neural patterns in particular regions of the brain. We think of the brain as a space we can map: here it responds to faces, there it perceives a sensation. But the sense of smellーonly recently attracting broader attention in neuroscienceーdoesn’t work this way. So what does the nose tell the brain, and how does the brain understand it?</p> <p>A. S. Barwich turned to experts in neuroscience, psychology, chemistry, and perfumery in an effort to understand the mechanics and meaning of odors. She discovered that scents are often fickle, and do not line up with well-defined neural regions. Upending existing theories of perception, <em>Smellosophy</em> offers a new model for understanding how the brain senses and processes odors.</p> <p>“A beguiling analysis of olfactory experience that is fast becoming a core reference work in the field.”<br /> ー<em>Irish Times</em></p> <p>“Lively, authoritative…Aims to rehabilitate smell’s neglected and marginalized status.”<br /> ー<em>Wall Street Journal</em></p> <p>“This is a special book…It teaches readers a lot about olfaction. It teaches us even more about what philosophy can be.”<br /> ー<em>Times Literary Supplement</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,950円

Under Sealed Orders Secrets of the Coastal Village: A Romantic Maritime Adventure【電子書籍】[ H. A. Cody ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>H. A. Cody's "Under Sealed Orders" is a compelling exploration of espionage and intrigue set against the backdrop of World War I. The novel intricately weaves together themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the moral complexities of war, all presented through Cody's deft prose, which combines rich descriptions with fast-paced storytelling. The narrative is marked by its realistic portrayal of military life and the psychological toll of clandestine operations, reflecting the broader literary context of early 20th-century war literature that sought to reveal the human experience behind the facades of national glory and duty. Cody, a Canadian author, had firsthand experience with the conflicts and challenges of the time, which likely shaped his perspective on the intricate world of military espionage. His literary career was characterized by a keen focus on the human condition, often depicted through the lens of historical events. Drawing from both his background and his experiences, Cody infused "Under Sealed Orders" with authentic insights and a nuanced understanding of the complexities faced by soldiers and spies alike. For readers captivated by historical fiction that delves into the moral quandaries of warfare, "Under Sealed Orders" offers a gripping and thought-provoking journey. This novel is recommended for those who appreciate complex characters, intricate plots, and a significant look into the conflicts that define our understanding of duty and honor.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

Mine! How the Hidden Rules of Ownership Control Our Lives【電子書籍】[ Michael A. Heller ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>“Mine” is one of the first words babies learn, and by the time we grow up, the idea of ownership seems natural, whether we are buying a cup of coffee or a house. But who controls the space behind your airplane seat: you, reclining, or the squished laptop user behind you? Why is plagiarism wrong, but it’s okay to knock off a recipe or a dress design? And after a snowstorm, why does a chair in the street hold your parking space in Chicago, while in New York you lose both the space and the chair?</p> <p>In <em>Mine!</em>, Michael Heller and James Salzman, two of the world’s leading authorities on ownership, explain these puzzles and many more. Remarkably, they reveal, there are just six simple rules that everyone uses to claim everything. Owners choose the rule that steers us to do what they want. But we can pick differently. This is true not just for airplane seats, but also for battles over digital privacy, climate change, and wealth inequality. <em>Mine!</em> draws on mind-bending, often infuriating, and always fascinating accounts from business, history, courtrooms, and everyday life to reveal how the rules of ownership control our lives and shape our world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,265円

Autoimmune Diseases and Their Environmental Triggers【電子書籍】[ Elaine A. Moore ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Autoimmune Disease (AD) refers to any of a number of disorders caused by an immune system defect that allows the body to attack its own tissues. Some say 20 percent of the population is susceptible to Autoimmune Disease. According to current theory, individuals who develop AD do so because they are exposed to certain environmental triggers.</p> <p>This work is a comprehensive resource for patients with autoimmune disease. The primary focus is on the specific environmental factors, including heavy metals, hormones, organic solvents, medications, and infectious agents, that lead to autoimmune disease and that make the symptoms worse in genetically susceptible individuals.</p> <p>Sections of this work describe the immune system, the natural courses of disease for the various system-wide and organ-specific autoimmune disorders, and genetic factors and lifestyle influences associated with AD. Diagnostic concerns, conventional and alternative treatment options for AD, current research paths, and laboratory tests are also covered.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,604円

The Gospel for Today: New Evangelistic Sermons for a New Day【電子書籍】[ Reuben A. Torrey ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>God’s attitude toward the world is infinite love. God’s attitude toward sin is infinite hatred. God’s attitude toward His Son is unutterable love, but He gave that Son up to die for you and me. God’s atti-tude toward the believer is to give him eternal life, regardless of what his past has been. God’s attitude toward those who will not believe is to leave them to the perdition they so madly choose. What will you choose today: life or death? People decide that question in a few minutes; decide it for all eternity. God help you to decide it right.</p> <p>In addition to being saved from the power of sin, a real faith that Jesus is the Son of God involves the surrender of our life to Him. If Jesus is divine, if He is the Son of God, if He is God made manifest in the flesh, we should surrender to Him all that we are and all that we have. That is what He demands of us and has a right to demand of us. Remember, Jesus is the Son of God! Have you made a surrender of your whole life to Him? If not, will you make that surrender now?<br /> ? Reuben A. Torrey</p> <p>About the Author<br /> Reuben Archer Torrey traveled all over the world leading evangelistic tours, preaching to the unsaved. It is believed that more than one hundred thousand were saved under his preaching. Torrey married Clara Smith in 1879, with whom he had five children. In 1908, he helped start the Montrose Bible Conference in Pennsylvania, which continues today. He became dean of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles (now Biola University) in 1912, and was the pastor of the Church of the Open Door in Los Angeles from 1915 to 1924. Torrey continued speaking all over the world and holding Bible conferences. He died in Asheville, North Carolina, on October 26, 1928.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 129円

Apollonius Rhodius, Herodotus and Historiography【電子書籍】[ A. D. Morrison ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines the Argonautica of Apollonius of Rhodes through one aspect of its relationship with other texts. The particular intertextual relationship examined is that with the Histories of Herodotus, focusing on the presence of the latter text in the former in terms of the poem's employment of characteristics and features of historiographical discourse, narrative structures, presentation and description of characters, aetiology and patterns of explanation, portrayal of ethnic groups, depiction of kingship and tyranny; the relationship between particular passages in both texts is also explored. The consequences for the interpretation of the poem are profound: the Argonautica employs Herodotean historiography as a key intertext in order to manipulate and frustrate the reader's generic expectations for an epic poem and to complicate the relationship between the contemporary Hellenistic Mediterranean (and its kingdoms) and the distant mythological Argonautic past.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,298円

This work has been held in peculiar honour in Abyssinia for several centuries, and throughout that country it has been, and still is, venerated by the people as containing the final proof of their descent from the Hebrew Patriarchs, and of the kinship of their kings of the Solomonic line with Christ, the Son of God. The Kebra Nagast is a great storehouse of legends and traditions, some historical and some of a purely folk-lore character, derived from the Old Testament and the later Rabbinic writings, and from Egyptian (both pagan and Christian), Arabian, and Ethiopian sources.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 330円

Polling at a Crossroads Rethinking Modern Survey Research【電子書籍】[ Michael A. Bailey ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Survey research is in a state of crisis. People have become less willing to respond to polls and recent misses in critical elections have undermined the field's credibility. Pollsters have developed many tools for dealing with the new environment, an increasing number of which rely on risky opt-in samples. Virtually all of these tools require that respondents in each demographic category are a representative sample of all people in each demographic category, something that is unlikely to be reliably true. Polling at a Crossroads moves beyond such strong limitations, providing tools that work even when survey respondents are unrepresentative in complex ways. This book provides case studies that show how to avoid underestimating Trump support and how conventional polls exaggerate partisan differences. This book also helps us think in clear and sometimes counterintuitive ways and points toward simple, low-cost changes that can better address contemporary polling challenges.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,557円

<p>The Syrian state is less than 100 years old, born from the wreckage of World War I. Today it stands in ruins, shattered by brutal civil war. How did this happen? How did the lands that are today Syria survive incorporation with the Ottoman Empire in the sixteenth century and the trials and vicissitudes of the Sultan's rule for four centuries, only to collapse into civil war in recent years? Arguably it was the Ottoman period that laid the fragile foundations of a state that had to endure a turbulent twentieth century under French rule, tentative independence, a brutal and corrupt dictatorship and eventual disintegration in the twenty-first. Across a diverse cast of individuals, rich and poor, James Reilly explores these fractious and formative periods of Ottoman, Egyptian and French rule, and the ways that these contributed to the contradictions and failings of the rule of the Assad family; and to a civil war which produced the so-called Islamic State.<br /> In charting Syria's history over the last five centuries in their entirety for the first time, Reilly demonstrates the myriad historical, cultural, social, economic and political factors that bind Syrians together, as well as those that have torn them apart. Based on primary sources, recent historiography in English, French and Arabic and more than 30 years' experience living and working in the region, this is the essential book for understanding modern Syria and the Middle East.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 7,658円

Whistler【電子書籍】[ Jp. A. Calosse ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Whistler (Lowell, 1834 ? Londres 1903). Whistler surgit ? un moment crucial de l'histoire de l'art et il joue un r?le de pr?curseur. Il a, comme les Impressionnistes, la volont? d'imposer ses id?es. Son oeuvre se d?roule en quatre p?riodes. Dans une premi?re p?riode de recherche, l'artiste est influenc? par le r?alisme de Courbet et par le japonisme. Puis Whistler trouve son originalit? avec les Nocturnes et la s?rie des Cremorne Gardens en s'opposant ? l'acad?misme qui veut qu'une oeuvre d'art raconte une histoire. Lorsqu'il peint le portrait de sa m?re, Whistler l'intitule Arrangement en gris et noir (p.31), ce qui est significatif de ses th?ories esth?tiques. S'il d?peint les jardins de plaisir de Cremorne, ce n'est pas pour y figurer, comme Renoir, des personnages identifiables, mais pour saisir une atmosph?re. Il aime les brumes des bords de la Tamise, les lumi?res blafardes, les chemin?es d'usine. C'est la p?riode au cours de laquelle il fera figure de pr?curseur et d'aventurier de l'art ; au bord de l'abstraction, il choque ses contemporains. La troisi?me p?riode est surtout domin?e par ses portraits en pied : c'est elle qui lui apportera la gloire. Mais il saura insuffler ? un genre pourtant classique sa profonde originalit?. Il restitue les personnes dans leur environnement : cela donne une ?trange pr?sence aux mod?les. Il cr?e des portraits qualifi?s de m?diums par ses contemporains et dont Oscar Wilde s'inspirera pour ?crire son Portrait de Dorian Gray. Enfin, vers la fin de sa vie, l'artiste r?alise des paysages et des portraits dans la grande tradition, tr?s influenc? par Velazquez. Whistler fera preuve d'une impressionnante rigueur en faisant sans cesse co?ncider son oeuvre avec ses th?ories. Il n'h?sitera pas ? croiser le fer avec les th?oriciens de l'art les plus c?l?bres. Sa personnalit?, ses foucades, son ?l?gance, en font un sujet id?al de curiosit? et d'admiration. Ami proche de Mallarm?, admir? par Marcel Proust, dandy provocateur, mondain ombrageux, artiste exigeant, il fut un novateur audacieux.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,041円
