Your body has a mind of its own. You know it’s true. You can sense it, even though it may be hard to articulate. You know that your body is more than a vehicle for your brain to cruise around in, but how deeply are mind and body truly interwoven? Answers can be found in the emerging science of body maps. Just as road maps represent interconnections across the landscape, your many body maps represent all aspects of your bodily self. Your self doesn’t begin and end with your physical body but extends into the space around you. When you drive a car, your personal body space grows to envelop it. When you play a video game, your body maps automatically track and emulate the actions of your character onscreen. If your body maps fall out of sync, you may have an out-of-body experience or see auras around other people. The Body Has a Mind of Its Own explains how you can tap into the power of body maps to do almost anything better: play tennis, strum a guitar, ride a horse, dance a waltz, empathize with a friend, raise children, cope with stress. Filled with illustrations, wonderful anecdotes, and even parlor tricks that you can use to reconfigure your body sense, The Body Has a Mind of Its Own will change the way you think about what it takes to have a conscious mind inside a feeling body.

《为药疯狂》用通俗的语言，告诉我们各种常见的抗忧郁、镇静等等药物可能给我们带来什么问题，同时也告诉读者，如何寻找助力来一步一步的戒除这些药瘾，以及在戒药瘾时可能面临的各种身心反应。《为药疯狂》英文版出版后，受到世界范围内许多精神类药物的使用者和专业临床医生的高度肯定与赞许。 近年来，精神治疗药物的使用量暴增，尤其是通过处方开出的给儿童的兴奋剂和成人的抗抑郁药物、镇静药物。大众越来越依赖处方药物来解决心理和社会问题。媒体直接将镇静类药品介绍给消费者，并向外行人赞扬精神治疗药物治疗儿童和成人各种心理、情绪问题的效果。 精神科药物的使用已不只是西方社会的问题，国内也使用得越来越多。不过，从西方到国内都一样，医生给病人药物的信息相当有限。而且许多药物反而是给病人带来新的问题。 医生在开出抗忧郁药物或镇定剂处方之前，通常只花几分钟时间评估病情。可是一旦病人决定接受药物治疗，很可能一辈子都摆脱不了这些药物，也无法避免长期用药带来的有害副作用。想找到一位医生指导病人服用精神治疗药物很容易，但要找到愿意帮病人停止用药的医生却很困难。

一个普遍的假设认为心理学存在许多缺陷而不适合用于研究犯罪。心理学的从业者描述他们自己是经受过严格训练的，像物理学家或生物学化学家一样采用这类“硬”科学同样的调查方法。当其他社会研究学科已经着手新的研究范式时，他们依然谈论行为并且进行控制下的实验。心理学被认为或多或少只在人们自身内部寻找他们行为的原因，并被认为如果不是有意拒绝诸如社会条件或政治力量等外部的环境因素，就是忽视了它们。这已经被认为是心理学本身固有的保守姿态（见Lillyetal.，2002）。心理学与生物学和医学有着很近的联系，并将犯罪看成是一种病态。心理学家使用老鼠、鸽子、大学生和其他外国人进行实验，他们在一些相当有限的抽样样本和奇特调查的基础上得出大量结论。在一些实验中，他们让人们待在黑屋子里并戴上一种能让所看到的世界上下颠倒的透镜，或对其进行电击。他们应用智力测验、无意义音节、单向玻璃和厌恶疗法。总而言之，这是一群古怪的令人讨厌的家伙，最好离他们远点。

One hundred years ago, Maria Montessori, the first female physician in Italy, devised a very different method of educating children, based on her observations of how they naturally learn. In Montessori, Angeline Stoll Lillard shows that science has finally caught up with Maria Montessori. Lillard presents the research behind eight insights that are foundations of Montessori education, describing how each of these insights is applied in the Montessori classroom. In reading this book, parents and teachers alike will develop a clear understanding of what happens in a Montessori classroom and, more important, why it happens and why it works. Lillard, however, does much more than explain the scientific basis for Montessori's system: Amid the clamor for evidence-based education, she presents the studies that show how children learn best, makes clear why many traditional practices come up short, and describes an ingenious alternative that works. Now with a foreword by Renilde Montessori, the youngest grandchild of Maria Montessori, Montessori offers a wealth of insights for anyone interested in education.

To err is human. Yet most of us go through life assuming (and sometimes insisting) that we are right about nearly everything, from the origins of the universe to how to load the dishwasher. If being wrong is so natural, why are we all so bad at imagining that our beliefs could be mistaken, and why do we react to our errors with surprise, denial, defensiveness, and shame? In Being Wrong , journalist Kathryn Schulz explores why we find it so gratifying to be right and so maddening to be mistaken, and how this attitude toward error corrodes relationships—whether between family members, colleagues, neighbors, or nations. Along the way, she takes us on a fascinating tour of human fallibility, from wrongful convictions to no-fault divorce; medical mistakes to misadventures at sea; failed prophecies to false memories; "I told you so!" to "Mistakes were made." Drawing on thinkers as varied as Augustine, Darwin, Freud, Gertrude Stein, Alan Greenspan, and Groucho Marx, she proposes a new way of looking at wrongness. In this view, error is both a given and a gift—one that can transform our worldviews, our relationships, and, most profoundly, ourselves. In the end, Being Wrong is not just an account of human error but a tribute to human creativity—the way we generate and revise our beliefs about ourselves and the world. At a moment when economic, political, and religious dogmatism increasingly divide us, Schulz explores with uncommon humor and eloquence the seduction of certainty and the crises occasioned by error. A brilliant debut from a new voice in nonfiction, this book calls on us to ask one of life's most challenging questions: what if I'm wrong?

Over the last decade, the study of complex networks has expanded across diverse scientific fields. Increasingly, science is concerned with the structure, behavior, and evolution of complex systems ranging from cells to ecosystems. Modern network approaches are beginning to reveal fundamental principles of brain architecture and function, and in Networks of the Brain, Olaf Sporns describes how the integrative nature of brain function can be illuminated from a complex network perspective. Highlighting the many emerging points of contact between neuroscience and network science, the book serves to introduce network theory to neuroscientists and neuroscience to those working on theoretical network models. Brain networks span the microscale of individual cells and synapses and the macroscale of cognitive systems and embodied cognition. Sporns emphasizes how networks connect levels of organization in the brain and how they link structure to function. In order to keep the book accessible and focused on the relevance to neuroscience of network approaches, he offers an informal and nonmathematical treatment of the subject. After describing the basic concepts of network theory and the fundamentals of brain connectivity, Sporns discusses how network approaches can reveal principles of brain architecture. He describes new links between network anatomy and function and investigates how networks shape complex brain dynamics and enable adaptive neural computation. The book documents the rapid pace of discovery and innovation while tracing the historical roots of the field. The study of brain connectivity has already opened new avenues of study in neuroscience. Networks of the Brain offers a synthesis of the sciences of complex networks and the brain that will be an essential foundation for future research.
