Use Your Brain to Change Your Age: Secrets to Look, Feel, and Think Younger Every Day Review

THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH IS BETWEEN YOUR EARS.

A healthy brain is the key to staying vibrant and alive for a long time, and in Use Your Brain to Change Your Age, bestselling author and brain expert Dr. Daniel G. Amen shares ten simple steps to boost your brain to help you
live longer, look younger, and dramatically decrease your risk for Alzheimer’s disease.

Over the last twenty years at Amen Clinics, Dr. Amen has performed more than 70,000 brain scans on patients from ninety different countries. His brain imaging work has taught
him that our brains typically become less active with age and we become more vulnerable to
memory problems and depression. Yet, one of the most exciting lessons he has learned is that
with a little forethought and a brain-smart plan, you can slow, or even reverse, the aging process in the brain.

Based on the approach that has helped thousands of people at Amen Clinics along with the most cutting-edge research, Dr. Amen’s breakthrough, easy-to-follow antiaging program shows you how to:

• Boost your memory, mood, attention,
and energy
• Decrease your risk for Alzheimer’s and
other forms of dementia
• Eat to live longer
• Reduce the outward signs of aging and
make your skin more beautiful
• Promote the healing of brain damage due
to injury, strokes, substance abuse, and
toxic exposure
• Dramatically increase your chances of
living longer and looking younger
••And much more.

By adopting the brain healthy strategies detailed in Use Your Brain to Change Your Age, you can outsmart your genes, put the brakes on aging, and even reverse the aging process. If you change your brain, you can change your life—and your age.

HRD in the Age of Globalization: A Practical Guide To Workplace Learning In The Third Millennium (New Perspectives in Organizational Learning, Performance, and Change)

HRD in the Age of Globalization: A Practical Guide To Workplace Learning In The Third Millennium (New Perspectives in Organizational Learning, Performance, and Change) Review

The pro- and anti-globalization forces may be logically at odds, but there's little dispute on the inevitability of globalization's forward march. And as Michael Marquardt, Nancy Berger, and Peter Loan explain, the real issue is not stopping or promoting globalization, but rather how to minimize the negative effects of globalization and leverage its powerful, positive effects. Human Resource Development will play a key role in determining this transformation. At no time in history has HRD been more critical in solving urgent economic and social problems faced by a wide array of groups, communities, organizations, and nations. HRD in the Age of Globalization explores the best HRD programs in twelve geographic regions and their impact on culture, the global environment, and other geopolitical and demographic elements. This book not only answers all the questions that exist concerning this burgeoning field-it tells us what questions we should be asking.

Belief Beyond Boundaries: Wicca, Celtic Spirituality and the New Age (Religion Today-Tradition, Modernity & Change) (Religion Today-Tradition, Modernity & Change)

Belief Beyond Boundaries: Wicca, Celtic Spirituality and the New Age (Religion Today-Tradition, Modernity & Change) (Religion Today-Tradition, Modernity & Change) Review

This fifth volume of the "Religion Today" series explores "religions" or forms of spirituality that tend to be marginal to the mainstream of British and North American religious expression. The book examines how alternative spiritualities traditionally classed as "New Age" or new religious movements have grown exponentially in recent years. It progresses to detailed examination of Paganism, Celtic spirituality, Wicca, witchcraft, North American indigenous religion and New Age, considering the impact of the rise of science on religion and the emergence of new categories of spirituality. The authors explore why these forms of spirituality are so popular in the contemporary UK and USA, and how they impact on mainstream traditions.

HEALTH IN OLD AGE (Law and Political Change)

HEALTH IN OLD AGE (Law and Political Change) Review

Why do many older people rate their health as good when 'objective' evidence suggests that old age is a time of inevitable decline and disease? How do different perspectives on health inform our understanding of health in old age? What are the policy implications for ensuring a healthy future for old age? This book addresses important questions which existing literature on health and old age has largely ignored. By juxtaposing detailed case histories and first person accounts from older people with 'official statistics' on the health of 'the elderly' it explores the myths and tries to unpick the mysteries which surround the subject of health in later life. It goes on to explore the implications of these myths and mysteries for the way individual older people manage their health. It looks at the resources and social support available to them as well as the implications for public policy provision. The book ends by exploring the problems and possibilities of ensuring a healthy future for old age. It will be essential reading for reflective practitioners and for anyone concerned with new developments in the fields of ageing, social policy and health.

Age and uplift rates of Sirius Group sediments in the Dominion Range, Antarctica, from surface exposure dating and geomorphology [An article from: Global and Planetary Change]

Description:
The recent tectonic history of the Dominion Range is a key component in the debate over the age and significance of the Sirius Group glacial sediments. Outcrops at Oliver Bluffs along the Beardmore Glacier contain fossil wood (Nothofagus), mollusks, fish and insects that have been biostratigraphically dated by close association with late Pliocene (<3.8 Ma) marine diatoms, implying a significantly warmer climate at that time. The sediments are inferred to have been deposited adjacent to a tidewater glacier at the head of an ancestral Beardmore Fjord and subsequently uplifted to their present elevation of ~1800 m. Evidence for post depositional uplift at the Dominion Range includes the presence of glacial-marine sediments and normal faults which displace Sirius Group deposits up to 300 m. New surficial mapping of lateral moraines and fault scarps, combined with ^3He surface exposure dating, place limits on the age and uplift rates of these key Sirius Group sediments. A series of Beardmore lateral moraines with exposure ages that range from <20 ka to >2 Ma are separated by only 130 m elevation, indicating little change in elevation during the interval and that Plio-Pleistocene tectonic activity in the Dominion Range has been minimal. Surface exposure ages indicate the Koski fault scarp formed prior to 2 Ma and that erosion rates of the semi-lithified Sirius tills exposed in the scarp are only ca. 2.5 m/Ma, consistent with pervasive cold, arid climatic conditions. Surface exposure ages of moraine boulders overlying Sirius till, and offset by the faults, are between 1.9 and 5.1 Ma, assuming no erosion and constant elevation. Models of cosmogenic ^3He accumulation in the moraine boulders, that place the Sirius Group near sea level 3.8 Ma, show that the biostratigraphic age and the cosmogenic nuclide concentrations can be reconciled only with long (>4 Myr) exposure prior to deposition of the Nothofagus bearing units. This scenario is incompatible with the observed stratigraphy and climatic conditions necessary to support Nothofagus, and indicates these key Sirius group sediments are much older than 3.8 Ma. The conspicuous faults and grabens in the Dominion Range are interpreted as sackungen features attributed to gravitational failure resulting from oversteepening of the range flanks by glacial erosion by the Beardmore and Mill outlet glaciers rather than the result of tectonic uplift.
