Fitzgerald, Adam. George Washington: poems. New York: Liveright Publishing Corporation, a division of W.W. Norton & Company, 2016, stated First Edition, and 1st printing number line starting with 1, 105pp., near fine dust-jacket, cover price $25.95, fresh attractive orange and white hardcover. "Adam Fitzgerald's second collection of poems sets out to estrange American history through the unreliable lenses of autobiography and technology. Suffused with profound loss and treacherous nostalgia for a bygone era of unfettered consumerism, this is also poetry made eerily familiar. Reflecting on the 1990s New Jersey suburbia of the poet's youth, Fitzgerald's new book performs a psychological autopsy on our national lust for safety and comfort amid the 'white noise' of daily living.".

Physical description; 317 pages: illustrations; 25 cm. Includes bibliographical references (pages 277-307) and index. Summary; The human head is exceptional. It accommodates four of our five senses, encases the brain, and boasts the most expressive set of muscles in the body. It is our most distinctive attribute and connects our inner selves to the outer world. Yet there is a dark side to the head's preeminence, one that has, in the course of human history, manifested itself in everything from decapitation to headhunting. So explains anthropologist Frances Larson in this fascinating history of decapitated human heads. From the Western collectors whose demand for shrunken heads spurred massacres to Second World War soldiers who sent the remains of the Japanese home to their girlfriends, from Madame Tussaud modeling the guillotined head of Robespierre to Damien Hirst photographing decapitated heads in city morgues, from grave-robbing phrenologists to skull-obsessed scientists, Larson explores our macabre fixation with severed heads. Subjects; Head - History. Head - Social aspects. Beheading. 3 Kg.

Pappband. Zustand: Gut. First Edition. Gutes Exemplar, Text sauber, keine Eintragungen. --- The holy grail of psychologists and scientists for nearly a century has been to under- stand and replicate both human thought and the human mind. In fact, it's what attracted the now-legendary computer scientist and AI authority David Gelernter to the discipline in the first place. As a student and young researcher in the 1980s, Gelernter hoped to build a program with a dial marked "focus." At maximum "focus," the program would "think" rationally, formally, reasonably. As the dial was turned down and "focus" diminished, its "mind" would start to wander, and as you dialed even lower, this artificial mind would start to free-associate, eventually ignoring the user completely as it cruised off into the mental adventures we know as sleep. -- -- While the program was only a partial success, it laid the foundation for The Tides of Mind, a groundbreaking new exploration of the human psyche that shows us how the very purpose of the mind changes throughout the day. Indeed, as Gelernter explains, when we are at our most alert, when reasoning and creating new memories is our main mental business, the mind is a computer-like machine that keeps emotion on a short leash and attention on our surroundings. As we gradually tire, however, and descend the "mental spectrum," reasoning comes unglued. Memory ranges more freely, the mind wanders, and daydreams grow more insistent. Self-awareness fades, reflection blinks out, and at last we are completely immersed in our own minds. -- -- With far-reaching implications, Gelernter's landmark "Spectrum of Consciousness" finally helps decode some of the most mysterious wonders of the human mind, such as the numinous light of early childhood, why dreams are so often predic- tive, and why sadism and masochism underpin some of our greatest artistic achievements. It's a theory that also challenges the very notion of the mind as a machine-and not through empirical studies or "hard science" but by listening to our great poets and novelists, who have proven them- selves as humanity's most trusted guides to the subjective mind and inner self. -- -- In the great introspective tradition of Wilhelm Wundt and René Descartes, Gelernter promises to not only revolutionize our under- standing of what it means to be human but also help answer many of our most fundamental questions about the origins of creativity, thought, and consciousness. -- -- DAVID GELERNTER is the author of eight books and a professor of computer science at Yale University. His 1991 work, Mirror Worlds, not only "foresaw" (Reuters) the World Wide Web but is considered "one of the most influential books in computer science" (Technology Review). Gelernter's research has proved important to sev- eral leading Web-search efforts and has also been instrumental in the development of the Java pro- gramming language and the first modern social networks, as well as predicting the rise of blogs and activity streams such as Facebook and Twitter. --- CONTENTS: Preface XI -- -- One The Tides of Mind I -- -- Two Three Thirds of the Spectrum 20 -- -- Three Every Day 55 -- -- Four A Map 104 -- -- Five Spectrum, Upper Third: Abstraction 133 -- -- Six Spectrum, Middle Third: Creativity 149 -- -- Seven Spectrum, Lower Third: Descent into Lost Time 17 -- -- Eight Where It All Leads 205 -- -- Nine Conclusions 241 -- -- Acknowledgments 253 -- -- Literary Works Cited in the Text 255 -- -- Notes 259 -- -- Index 269.
