Memory Culture - The Science of Observing, Remembering and Recalling (Paperback): William Walker Atkinson Memory Culture - The Science of Observing, Remembering and Recalling (Paperback)
William Walker Atkinson
R347 Discovery Miles 3 470 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

How much of what we call "mind" exists below our consciousness? Can we access seemingly inaccessible memories? Is it possible to train and focus the conscious mind to tap our unconscious reserves? In this forgotten classic from 1903, William Walker Atkinson-one of the most influential thinkers of the early-20th-century "New Age" philosophy of New Thought-explores the unknown realms of human memory and how we can increase our personal power and grow as mindful beings by becoming more aware of our own psyches. Atkinson discusses: . the subconscious storehouse . attention and concentration . acquiring impressions . eye perception and memory . ear perception and memory . remembrance, recollection, and recognition . and more. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today, including "Yogi Ramacharaka" and "Theron Q. Dumont."

Brains and How to Get Them (Paperback): Christian D. Larson Brains and How to Get Them (Paperback)
Christian D. Larson
R581 Discovery Miles 5 810 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Think you have untapped powers? You do. In this work, originally published in 1913, one of the earliest New Age thinkers asserts that not only do we all have the power to achieve greater wisdom, creativity, productivity, and fulfillment, but that this growth is possible for anyone who is willing to concentrate. Foreshadowing the modern field of positive psychology by decades, Larson provides illuminating information about how the brain works in tandem with the body and the emotions, and walks you through exercises that help you gain mental strength and agility, ultimately improving your thinking-and your life. American New Thought pioneer CHRISTIAN DAA LARSON (b. 1874) is the author of the well-known Optimist Creed and published several important works of spiritual science, including Mastery of Self, In the Light of the Spirit, and The Great Within.

Wesley Carrington Graeyer Author of "The Tornado Struck at Midnight" ""Through Louise Cabral's book, 'Islands of Recall' I learned enough about writing to make me an author. She showed me the importance of writing with feeling. I learned that for every event and every action there is a reaction, which led me to look into my responses from my farm life at the beginning to the war years that were so different from my early environment. Her book taught me how to write action and dialogue. Her reservoir of knowledge inspired me to write my own story in a book of my own."" Richard Cornelius-author of "From the Farm and Off to War"

R389 Discovery Miles 3 890 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

In the building of character and individuality, the memory plays an important part, for upon the strength of the impressions received, and the firmness with which they are retained, depends the fibre of character and individuality. Our experiences are indeed the stepping stones to greater attainments, and at the same time our guides and protectors from danger.-from "Memory: Its Importance"New Thought proponents at the turn of the 20th century sought to use mysticism to unleash the forces of the universe in themselves. One of the most influential thinkers of this early "New Age" philosophy promises here, in this 1913 book, to show the reader how to cultivate the memory in such a way as to improve one's entire life. Atkinson's method is not geared to mere recollection of facts: it encourages a holistically "correct seeing, thinking, and remembering." With secrets hidden for almost a century, this book will teach you to train the eye as well as the ear to improve your ability to recall names, faces, numbers, music, facts, and much more.American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was born in Baltimore and had built up a successful law practice in Pennsylvania before professional burnout led him to the religious New Thought movement. He served as editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and as editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books-including The Philosophies and Religions of India, Arcane Formula or Mental Alchemy and Vril, or Vital Magnetism-under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today.

The Wisdom Paradox - How Your Mind Can Grow Stronger As Your Brain Grows Older (Paperback, Annotated edition): Elkhonon Goldberg The Wisdom Paradox - How Your Mind Can Grow Stronger As Your Brain Grows Older (Paperback, Annotated edition)
Elkhonon Goldberg
R521 Discovery Miles 5 210 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

aImpressive. . . Wide-ranging. . . . "The Wisdom Paradox" makes a compelling case for the possibility of maintaining a sharp mind far into old age.a
aKENNETH SILBER, "SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN MIND"
"The Wisdom Paradox" explores the aging of the mind from a unique, positive perspective. In an era of increasing fears about mental deterioration, world-renowned neuropsychologist Elkhonon Goldberg provides startling new evidence that though the brain diminishes in some tasks as it ages, it gains in many ways. Most notably, it increases in what he terms awisdoma: the ability to draw upon knowledge and experience gained over a lifetime to make quick and effective decisions. Goldberg delves into the machinery of the mind, separating memory into two distinct types: singular (knowledge of a particular incident or fact) and generic (recognition of broader patterns). As the brain ages, the ability to use singular memory declines, but generic memory is unaffectedaand its importance grows. As an individual accumulates generic memory, the brain can increasingly rely upon these stored patterns to solve problems effortlessly and instantaneously. Goldberg investigates the neurobiology of wisdom, and draws on historical examples of artists and leaders whose greatest achievements were realized late in life.
Praise for "The Wisdom Paradox: "
aGood news: Our brains can and do improve with age. The evidence Goldberg presents is thorough and indisputable . . . Informative and entertaining.a
aDiane Stressing, "The Plain Dealer" (Cleveland)
a[A] graceful exposition of the latest findings in developmental neuropsychology, brain mapping, and computational neuroscience. . . Goldberg overturns stale assumptions about the different functions of the two sides of the brain and about the roles of the frontal lobes. . . It is still cheering, in an era that worships youth, to be reminded that age can bring its own intellectual gifts.a
aEmma Crichton-Miller, "The Telegraph" (London)
a"The Wisdom Paradox" is unusually easy and enjoyable to read for a book loaded with information and ideas about the brain. . . [Goldberg] is a gifted explicator and a talented writer.a
a"Cerebrum"
aA book of wise reflections on the gains, not the losses, that come to the older human mind. Here is a valuable addition to the literature on aging.a
