Eldercare Issues in China and India (eBook, PDF)
The contributors to this book present case studies of elder care in China and India, and draw comparisons between the two - illuminating some of the key issues facing the two largest Asian countries as they develop rapidly. Caring for the elderly is a major challenge for all countries, and one which is of acute concern for rapidly developing economies. Development tends to run counter to long-established cultural norms of family-based caring and filial piety, even as it also tends to lead to longer life expectancy. Taking a range of methodological and conceptual approaches to understanding these challenges, the contributors present a multifaceted understanding of elder care issues in both India and China. They focus in particular on caregiving within families and at care homes - and the impacts these have on quality of life and the experience of caregiving for both caregivers and the aged themselves. An invaluable collection for scholars and students of gerontology and aging in Asia, that will also be of great interest to scholars with a broader interest in global trends in caregiving.- Shop: buecher

Neuromarketing Fundamentals , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 49min
The word "brain" tends to be used when people talk about anatomical structures or circuitry in the brain. The term mind tends to be used to refer to the subjective cognitive states a brain creates. For example, the prefrontal cortex is an anatomical part of the brain, but attention is a cognitive "state of mind" produced by activity in the brain. Generally, we use these terms interchangeably. We consider "nonconscious processes in the brain" to be equivalent to "the nonconscious mind." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrea Giordani.

We have summarized here the essential of this book by the author. PRESIDENTIALIST DEMOCRACIES AND THE INTEGRATION PROCESS. TOWARDS A COMPARATIVE APPROACH TO MERCOSUR 8.1. Introduction Malamud argues that the GLOBALIZATION PROCESS implies the imposition on most of the planet's political communities of a common system of free exchange of goods, ideas and people, and of an economic and trade organization logic that tends to globalize. Parallel to this process, within the NATION-STATES there is a confluence of CAPITALISM AND DEMOCRACY.- Shop: buecher

The English Patient
With unsettling beauty and intelligence, this Golden Man Booker Prize-winning novel traces the intersection of four damaged lives in an abandoned Italian villa at the end of World War II. The nurse Hana, exhausted by death, obsessively tends to her last surviving patient. Caravaggio, the thief, tries to reimagine who he is, now that his hands are hopelessly maimed. The Indian sapper Kip searches for hidden bombs in a landscape where nothing is safe but himself. And at the center of his labyrinth lies the English patient, nameless and hideously burned, a man who is both a riddle and a provocation to his companions-and whose memories of suffering, rescue, and betrayal illuminate this book like flashes of heat lightning.- Shop: buecher

Fit through Mindfulness - Regeneration through Transcendence
Surprising results were found in a pilot study by the authors in which they compared Buddhist mindfulness meditation ("mindfulness": becoming clearly aware of the here and now) with Transcendental Meditation ("TM" - repeated states of mind without thoughts, of pure, contentless, "transcendental awareness"). Stuart Heritage im GUARDIAN: "Where Mindfulness practises overt observation, TM is all about letting go".Measurements of heart rate variability (HRV) showed that- Transcendental Meditation, through Automatic Self Transcending, is primarily effective in producing sustained regeneration and short-term, rapid recovery,- Mindfulness meditation, on the other hand, through sympathetic driven increase in HRV, tends to lead to increased readiness for action and fitness.Recent comparative studies between mindfulness and TM suggest that TM may yield better results in increasing mindfulness.- Shop: buecher
