Animals In Translation : Using The Mysteries Of Autism To Decode Anima Grandin, Temple/ Johnson,
Harcourt 0156031442
I don't know if people will ever be able to talk to animals the way Doctor Doolittle could, or whether animals will be able to talk back. Maybe science will have something to say about that. But I do know people can learn to talk to animals, and to hear what animals have to say, better than they do now. --From Animals in TranslationWhy would a cow lick a tractor? Why are collies getting dumber? Why do dolphins sometimes kill for fun? How can a parrot learn to spell? How did wolves teach man to evolve? Temple Grandin draws upon a long, distinguished career as an animal scientist and her own experiences with autism to deliver an extraordinary message about how animals act, think, and feel. She has a perspective like that of no other expert in the field, which allows her to offer unparalleled observations and groundbreaking ideas.People with autism can often think the way animals think, putting them in the perfect position to translate animal talk. Grandin is a faithful guide into their world, exploring animal pain, fear, aggression, love, friendship, communication, learning, and, yes, even animal genius. The sweep of Animals in Translation is immense and will forever change the way we think about animals.*includes a Behavior and Training Troubleshooting Guide

Energy Prescription : Give Yourself Abundant Vitality With The Wisdom Grauds, Connie/ Childers,
Bantam/Dell Books 0553382543
Collaborating with editor/ghostwriter/ novelist Childers, Grauds (clinical pharmacy, Univ. of California, San Francisco) here applies a decade of Peruvian shamanic training to a leading American health complaint: low energy. The focus is on what Amazon shamans describe as susto, or primal fear, a condition of negative spirit long considered the cause of physical, psychological, and spiritual malady. Susto arises from an imbalance in our lives via the primary gateways of energy-breath, food, water, exercise, and relationships; exercises meant to remedy that balance and facilitate connection can help alleviate its occurrence. The authors also discuss how to identify primary energy leaks, like anxiety, depression, insomnia, adverse sexual behavior, and addiction. An energy assessment provides readers with the means to create a realistic schedule for practice and healing. Popular works on shamanism abound, many of which introduce core concepts and/or specific tribal practices. By focusing on personal energy, Grauds and Childers's work finds a niche in the existing field. Recommended for public libraries.-Andy Wickens, King Cty. Lib. Syst., WA Copyright 2005 Reed

Fabric of the Cosmos : Space, Time, and the Texture of Reality Greene, Brian
Random House Inc 0375727205
In his new widely anticipated new book, Brian Greene, one of the world's foremost string theorists and the best-selling author of The Elegant Universe, reveals the strange and stunning layers of reality modern physics has discovered lying just beneath the surface of the everyday world.Greene examines space--fromNewton's unchanging, realm, through Einstein's fusion of space and time, to recent breakthroughs suggesting that ours may be one of many island universes floating in a grand, multidimensional spatial expanse. We encounter the peculiar world of quantum physics, in which space and time are buffeted to and fro by the turbulence of quantum uncertainty. We see the paradoxical nature of time, which, according to the laws of physics, does not necessarily need to run in any particular direction. And Greene shows us how the tantalizing world of string and M-theory may unltimately provide us with the elusive unified theory of the universe.

Healing Through the Dark Emotions : The Wisdom of Grief, Fear, and Des Greenspan, Miriam
Shambhala Publications 1590301013
In this heartfelt therapeutic manifesto, psychotherapist Greenspan (A New Approach to Women and Therapy) argues that grief, fear and despair are not pathologies to be medicated away but emotions that help us grow psychologically and spiritually. The disavowal of these painful emotions (which she blames on Western culture s privileging of masculine reason over feminine emotion; lifelong lessons in suppressing emotional pain; and modern psychology s focus on dispelling feelings, not learning from them ) leads to depression, numbness and violence in both individuals and the world at large. But by attending, befriending, and surrendering to grief, fear and despair we can effect an alchemical transformation through which they become gratitude, faith and joy. Greenspan s eclectic approach to healing invokes depth psychology, Hasidic Judaism and Buddhist meditation ; her desire to make meaning out of suffering owes something to religious traditions that acknowledge the redemptive value of pain, as well as psychoanalysis s dedication to lighting up the mind s dark recesses, while her praxis includes New Age and recovery movement therapeutics such as visualization, breathing exercises, chakra bodytalk and prayer. Drawing on her clinical experience and her own painful recollections of the death of her infant son and her parents travails during the Second World War, Greenspan writes intensely and compassionately. This is a committed, serious look at the emotions most of us would rather sweep under the rug. (Jan. 28) Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
