Ranging from behavioral to molecular levels of analysis, this
informative study presents the results of recent research into the
biochemistry and neural mechanisms of imprinting. Horn discusses
some of the difficulties that researchers have encountered in
analyzing the neural basis of memory and describes ways in which
these difficulties have been overcome through the analysis of
memories underlying habituation and imprinting. He also considers
the biochemical consequences of imprinting and its cerebral
localization, and examines the relationships between human and
animal memory.
Transcendence is a mesmerizing book of magical realism seamlessly
woven with threads of primal wisdom. It will reacquaint readers
with the profound beauty of our mother planet, while turning their
mind's eye to rarely realized realms of possibility.
Most lives are lived solely in the present. But some lives are also
lived with a spiritual and historical connection to the past. These
lives grant us a sense of hope for the future. NATIVE HEART is the
story of Gabriel Horn and his attempt to live a modern man's life
that's true to the indigenous spirit of this land we call America.
As a teacher in the American Indian Movement Survival Schools, and
as a writer, activist, husband, and father, Horn presents a
challenging and haunting perspective on our "new world" culture and
values. Whether it's revealing a genocide Western historians choose
to ignore, enabling Native American prisoners to pray with the
pipe, or teaching his own Native children the lessons of nature and
history, Horn stays true to his heart and to the vision that
inspired his journey. His encounters with the "shadow people," his
relationship to the Earth, and his quest for understanding and
purpose within the "Great Holy Mystery" are retold in this intimate
autobiographical novel.
