Sensing Spirit
by Mitchell CoombesWith his down-to-earth, friendly manner celebrity psychic Mitchell Coombes provides the reader with an intriguing and illuminating entree into the world of Spirit. Have you ever experienced an uncanny coincidence? Do you wonder about your Spirit Guide? Have you been trying to get in contact with a loved one? Do you need help deciphering signals from Spirit? Since his childhood Mitchell Coombes has been able to see dead people, except he called them 'green people' and considered his gift a normal part of life. In Sensing Spirit he shows how everybody else can make their own psychic abilities part of their everyday lives too. Mitchell shares the funny and heart-warming stories of his life as a psychic medium and reveals the ways that spirits may try and connect with their living loved ones. Most importantly he shows us how to hear, know or see when a spirit is trying to make contact. Sensing Spirit includes many incredible real-life stories - like Maxine who witnessed her daughter Bella sitting up in bed hugging the air right before Maxine received a phone call to say her mother had just died. Before she had a chance to tell Bella the news, Bella asked her if Grandma was going on a holiday because she'd just come and given Bella a hug goodbye. Or like Judy who had a terrifying dream her husband had an accident with a black Mazda and rang to warn him. Her husband laughed it off, until he nearly crashed into a broken-down black Mazda moments later. Mitchell explains how to understand these signs from Spirit as well as discussing psychic phenomena like mysterious orbs, apparitions, electrical disturbances and how to achieve protection from psychic vampires. The book contains the answers to frequently asked psychic questions: 'Can Spirits tell us winning lottery numbers?' 'Do pets have sixth sense?' and 'Do spirits watch us all the time?' He also includes a helpful guide to what to expect when meeting a psychic medium and explores the tools of the trade - crystal balls, tarot cards, psychometry.
Sensing the World: An Anthropology of the Senses (Sensory Studies)
by David Le BretonSensing the World: An Anthropology of the Senses is a highly original and comprehensive overview of the anthropology and sociology of the body and the senses. Discussing each sense in turn – seeing, hearing, touch, smell, and taste – Le Breton has written a truly monumental work, vast in scope and deeply engaging in style. Among other pioneering moves, he gives equal attention to light and darkness, sound and silence, and his disputation of taste explores aspects of disgust and revulsion. Part phenomenological, part historical, this is above all a cultural account of perception, which returns the body and the senses to the center of social life. Le Breton is the leading authority on the anthropology of the body and the senses in French academia. With a repute comparable to the late Pierre Bourdieu, his 30+ books have been translated into numerous languages. This is the first of his works to be made available in English. This sensuously nuanced translation of La Saveur du monde is accompanied by a spicy preface from series editor David Howes, who introduces Le Breton's work to an English-speaking audience and highlights its implications for the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, and the cross-disciplinary field of sensory studies.
Sensitive: My Journey through a Toxic World
by Pookie SekmetIn this wry memoir, a Harvard-educated CPA with debilitating chemical intolerance digs deep in her family history to uncover the childhood trigger for her illness. Tackling themes of truth, loss, acceptance, and empowerment, Pookie Sekmet interweaves her personal story with timely guidance on the importance of avoiding toxic chemicals in cars, consumer products, and indoor environments; overcomes family trauma and mysterious chronic health struggles with determination and humor; builds an unconventional new life; and, finally, becomes a whistleblower within a corrupt and patriarchal corporate culture—and achieves righteous justice. Think Titus Andronicus, but with a slight woman in her mid-fifties with defiantly bad hair—wearing worn overalls and a home-sewn hemp jersey top—standing tall among the corpses. Our society has become polarized by leaders seeking to consolidate exploitative power through the imposition of magical thinking and untruths. Through the story of her struggles and ultimate triumph, Sekmet lays bare the underlying selfishness, heedlessness, and lies of many of our political, societal, and business structures and offers a reality-based and practical path to self-protection—and even empowerment.
The Sensitive Son and the Feminine Ideal in Literature: Writers from Rousseau to Roth
by Myron TumanThis book considers major male writers from the last three centuries whose relation to a strong, often distant woman—one sometimes modeled on their own mother—forms the romantic core of their greatest narratives. Myron Tuman explores the theory that there is an underlying psychological type, the sensitive son, connecting these otherwise diverse writers. The volume starts and ends with Jean-Jacques Rousseau, whose Confessions provides an early portrait of one such son. There are chapters on other adoring sons, Stendhal, Sacher-Masoch, Scott Fitzgerald, and Turgenev, as well as on sons like Bernard Shaw and D.H. Lawrence with a different, less affectionate psychological disposition toward women. This book demonstrates how, despite many differences, the best works of all these sensitive sons reflect the deep, contorted nature of their desire, a longing that often seems less for an actual woman than for an elusive feminine ideal.
Sensitive Soul: The Unseen Role of Emotion in Extraordinary States
by Michael A. JawerExplores how emotion underlies personality, triggers the development of non-ordinary states and perceptions, and connects all life • Shows how the flow of our emotions shapes individual minds and personalities • Reveals the significant role of emotion in PTSD, alexithymia (not knowing what one is feeling), autism, savantism, synesthesia (overlapping senses), déjà vu, phantom pain, migraines, and extreme empathy • Looks at the emotional lives of animals, demonstrating how life-threatening emergencies can trigger amazing sensitivities and abilities in them Emotion, as it exists within and between people, underpins personality, spirituality, and a range of extraordinary perceptions, conditions, and experiences. These include déjà vu, phantom pain, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and extreme empathy, where people instantaneously feel the physical or emotional pain of another. Many gifted children, those with synesthesia, and people with autism--not to mention highly sensitive people in general--report forms of innate &“knowing&” and even paranormal experiences. In this exploration of the role of emotion in non-ordinary states and abilities, Michael Jawer shows how the flow of our emotions and those of the people around us greatly influences the development of exceptional capacities and sensitivities. Drawing on a range of scientific studies, Jawer explores how 5 remarkable kinds of people--individuals with autism, synesthesia, savantism, child prodigies, and children who remember past lives--are linked through the biology of emotion and how a hidden emotional intensity underlies both autism and anomalous perception. He examines the psychological concept of thin and thick boundaries and how those with thin boundaries--those who are more environmentally sensitive--have a greater predisposition toward empathy, synesthesia, psi abilities, and extraordinary states of perception. Sharing extraordinary examples, the author explores how strong emotion may endure through time and space, possibly even after death. He also looks at the emotional lives of animals, our soulful connections with them, and how life-threatening emergencies can trigger amazing sensitivities and abilities in our fellow creatures. Revealing the unseen role of emotion in mind and personality, Jawer shows that emotion is the binding force that connects us with one another, with all of life, and with nature itself.
Sensory-Balance: An Approach to Learning Media Assessment for Students With CVI
by Christine Roman-Lantzy Matthew TietjenThe current leading cause of visual impairment among children is not a disease or condition of the eyes, but cortical visual impairment (CVI)-also known as cerebral visual impairment-in which visual dysfunction is caused by damage or injury to the brain. The definition, nature, and treatment of CVI are the focus of great concern and widespread debate, and this complex condition poses challenges to professionals and families seeking to support the growth and development of visually impaired children. On the basis of more than 30 years' experience in working with hundreds of children of all ages with CVI, Christine Roman-Lantzy has developed a set of unique assessment tools and systematic, targeted principles whose use has helped children learn to use their vision more effectively. This one-of-a-kind resource provides readers with both a conceptual framework with which to understand working with CVI and concrete strategies to apply directly in their work.

Sensory Neuroscience: Four Laws of Psychophysics
by Jozef J. ZwislockiSensory Neuroscience: Four Laws of Psychophysics organizes part of psychophysics -- a science of quantitative relationships between human sensations and the stimuli that evoke them. Although psychophysics belongs to sensory neuroscience, and is coupled to neurophysiology, it has also branched out to various specialized disciplines, including the disciplines of vision and hearing, ophthalmology, optometry, otology, and audiology. Due to this diversification and fragmentation, psychophysics has had an ad-hoc, phenomenological orientation. Besides Weber's law of differential sensitivity, and the still-controversial Stevens' power law, it has lacked a systematic grid of scientific laws. Sensory Neuroscience: Four Laws of Psychophysics provides valid unifying principles and systematic applications for this otherwise fragmented precursor of experimental psychology, and defines four multisensory relationships of substantial generality between sensations and the underlying stimulus variables. This book will be particularly useful to auditory researchers, experimental psychologists, and behavioral neuroscientists.

Sentience: The Invention of Consciousness
by Nicholas HumphreyThe story of a quest to uncover the evolutionary history of consciousness from one of the world's leading theoretical psychologists.We feel, therefore we are. Conscious sensations ground our sense of self. They are crucial to our idea of ourselves as psychic beings: present, existent, and mattering. But is it only humans who feel this way? Do other animals? Will future machines? Weaving together intellectual adventure and cutting-edge science, Nicholas Humphrey describes in Sentience his quest for answers: from his discovery of blindsight in monkeys and his pioneering work on social intelligence to breakthroughs in the philosophy of mind.The goal is to solve the hard problem: to explain the wondrous, eerie fact of &“phenomenal consciousness&”—the redness of a poppy, the sweetness of honey, the pain of a bee sting. What does this magical dimension of experience amount to? What is it for? And why has it evolved? Humphrey presents here his new solution. He proposes that phenomenal consciousness, far from being primitive, is a relatively late and sophisticated evolutionary development. The implications for the existence of sentience in nonhuman animals are startling and provocative.
SENZA RISPOSTA
by CAPT KUNAL NARAYAN UNIYAL Roberto FellettiSenza Risposta. Mi rendo conto che sia un titolo alquanto insolito per un libro di poesie, fatta eccezione per qualche prosa. Prima di aggiungere qualsiasi altra cosa sul mio libro, vorrei dire qualcosa su di me e sui miei processi mentali. Nato e cresciuto a Dehradun (India settentrionale), ho sempre condiviso una stretta affinità con la natura. Ero solito amare, e lo sono ancora, osservare la natura e riflettere su quanto possa essere amorevole e crudele allo stesso tempo. Sono cresciuto con i miei pensieri e ho iniziato a navigare, un lavoro perfetto per me. La mia mente errabonda aveva così la possibilità di riflettere ulteriormente. Spesso me ne stavo tutto solo, sul ponte della mia nave, a sentire le vibrazioni dell'impetuoso oceano sotto di me, mentre il cielo cambiava colore e umore da un momento all'altro. Talvolta mi sono spaventato... sono rimasto sconcertato... ipnotizzato, contemporaneamente. Rispetto la natura in tutte le sue forme... la sua benevolenza... la sua furia... i suoi colori... la sua imperturbabilità... la sua imprevedibilità... tutto quanto! Poi osservo noi... intendo noi, esseri umani, così superiori, i più intelligenti... le creature viventi più progredite ma anche le più miserevoli di tutte, finché saremo preda del falso ego e dell'ignoranza. La natura ha le sue leggi, rigide, e non fa distinzioni. Siamo noi che creiamo quella che definiamo sfortuna. Cito Cassio dal Giulio Cesare: “La colpa, caro Bruto, non è delle stelle, ma nostra, se siamo sottomessi...”. Tutto ciò di cui abbiamo bisogno è scrutare dentro noi stessi e confidare nella divina provvidenza. Questo è il punto cruciale del mio libro “Senza risposta”. “Senza risposta” spiega come trovare le risposte che giacciono sepolte in fondo ai nostri cuori, ma che non riusciamo a trovare perché siamo accecati dalla nebbia dell'ego e dei desideri. “Senza risposta” si prefigge lo scopo di svelare quelle risposte. Le prose e

The Sequence of Event Analysis in Criminal Trials
by Fabrizio D'Errico Maurizio Dalla CasaThis book presents a general method that lawyers, prosecutors and judges can follows to assess the quality and scientific content of technical work done for an accident and crime scene reconstruction. Using multilevel sequence of events analysis allows all key events to be fully identified, which in turn assists judicial bodies in identifying where to assign specific criminal liability. Created from a concept long sought by the two authors (an engineer and an attorney), the method allows readers without any technical background to progress from an examination of evidence gathered at the scene of a complex accident and to reconstruct "beyond reasonable doubt" the events that took place. Once created and scientifically verified by the sequence of events analysis, the chain of key events serves as a reference source for various levels of complex organizations and inter-organization structures in cases involving complex criminal responsibilities.
