by Betty J. EadieEl 19 de noviembre de 1973, como consecuencia de una histerectomía, Betty J. Eadie -31 años de edad, madre de siete hijos- falleció.

Veinte años después, Betty escribió su relato de aquella experiencia. El 19 de noviembre de 1973, como consecuencia de una histerectomía, Betty J. Eadie -31 años de edad, madre de siete hijos- falleció. Primero, se sintió flotar; después, atravesó un largo túnel y, al final de éste, la luz: una luz sobrenatural que la envolvía como si estuviera sumergida en medio de un líquido de extraordinaria textura. Betty tuvo la sensación de haber llegado finalmente a su hogar, un hogar en el que las únicas leyes serían el amor, la placidez, la exaltación absoluta de los sentidos y las potencias espirituales. En aquella morada de gloria Betty vivió momentos -indeterminados temporalmente- de la más completa y serena felicidad antes de regresar a su propio cuerpo, ya dado clínicamente por muerto, a la frialdad del hospital y al cariño, en otra dimensión, de su familia. Veinte años después, Betty escribió su relato de aquella experiencia. He visto la luz no ha sido sólo desde su aparición un éxito editorial sin precedentes; sobre todo, ha sido aceptado como testimonio válido por especialistas en el tema de la vida después de la muerte, como el doctor Melvin Morse, quien no ha dudado en calificarlo de auténtico "manual" de las experiencias de este tipo. Escrito con sencillez, pletórico de esperanza y alegría, He visto la luz es un manifiesto espiritual del que, seguramente, todos los lectores estarán en condiciones de sacar provecho. "He visto la luz contiene un gran secreto. Es un secreto que ya conocemos. Algo que los grandes profetas y líderes espirituales han intentado decirnos durante miles de años. Betty J. Eadie lo conoció en su trance de muerte. Este secreto tiene el poder de cambiar nuestras vidas." Del prólogo del doctor Melvin Morse

He's a Stud, She's a Slut, and 49 Other Double Standards Every Woman Should Know
by Jessica ValentiDouble standards are nothing new. Women deal with them every day. Take the common truism that women who sleep around are sluts while men are studs. Why is it that men grow distinguished and sexily gray as they age while women just get saggy and haggard? Have you ever wondered how a young woman is supposed to both virginal and provocatively enticing at the same time? Isn't it unfair that working moms are labeled "bad" for focusing on their careers while we shake our heads in disbelief when we hear about the occasional stay-at-home dad?In 50 Double Standards Every Woman Should Know, Jessica Valenti, author of Full Frontal Feminism, calls out the double standards that affect every woman. Whether Jessica is pointing out the wage earning discrepancies between men and women or revealing all of the places that women still aren't equal to their male counterparts-be it in the workplace, courtroom, bedroom, or home-she maintains her signature wittily sarcastic tone. With sass, humor, and in-your-face facts, this book informs and equips women with the tools they need to combat sexist comments, topple ridiculous stereotypes (girls aren't good at math?), and end the promotion of lame double standards.

Head Cases: Stories of Brain Injury and Its Aftermath
by Michael Paul MasonA case manager shares stories of patients’ and families’ journeys and “deftly conveys the frustrations and inequities of traumatic brain injury” (Mary Roach, The New York Times Book Review).Head Cases takes us into the dark side of the brain in an astonishing sequence of stories, at once true and strange, about the effects of brain damage. Michael Paul Mason is one of an elite group of experts who coordinate care in the complicated aftermath of tragic injuries that can last a lifetime. On the road with Mason, we encounter survivors of brain injuries as they struggle to map and make sense of the new worlds they inhabit.Underlying each of these survivors’ stories is an exploration of the brain and its mysteries. When injured—by a bad fall, a viral infection, or some other misfortune—the brain must figure out how to heal itself, reorganizing its physiology in order to do the job. Mason gives us a series of vivid glimpses into brain science, the last frontier of medicine, and we come away in awe of the miracles of the brain’s workings and astonished at the fragility of the brain and the sense of self, life, and order that resides there. Head Cases “[achieves] through sympathy and curiosity insight like that which pulses through genuine literature” (The New York Sun); it is at once illuminating and deeply affecting.“Vivid, heartbreaking [and] movingly written.” —The Seattle Times“Tells stories of tremendous courage and perseverance as survivors and their families work to re-establish the everyday skills they had before their injury. The strange effects of neurological damage will draw fans of Oliver Sacks, but Mason’s poignant and caring accounts of his clients’ lives are sure to touch the hearts of a wide range of readers.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Head in the Game: The Mental Engineering of the World's Greatest Athletes
by Brandon SneedAn intriguing blend of science and sports that explores how some of the worlds greatest athletes are utilizing the last frontier of performance-enhancing technology—the mental mapping and engineering of their own brains—for peak performance, and what it means for the future of athleticism, sports, and the rest of us.Moneyball showed how statistics were revolutionizing baseball. The Sports Gene revealed the role genetics play in sports. Now, Head in the Game examines the next evolution: how mental engineering—the manipulation of the cognitive processes of the brain—can make gifted athletes even better. For years, technology—from EEG (electroencephalogram) to fMRI (Functional magnetic resonance imaging) to video games, tablets, and personal data collection devices—have been used with soldiers to understand their physical and mental functioning. Touching on brain functionality vital to sports—both the "hard" (coordination, stimuli processing, functional memory, decision-making, load-processing) and the "soft" (emotion regulation, visualization, psychology, mindfulness)—this tech is now being adopted by scores of championship franchises and top athletes—including scrappy underdogs forced to innovate and elite players looking for an advantage. Star NFL quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Tom Brady, the NBA’s Kyle Korver, and Olympic volleyball champion Kerri Walsh are using mental engineering to up their game. It’s not luck that has transformed the San Antonio Spurs into a formidable force—it’s science, Sneed demonstrates. As mental engineering becomes widespread—taking athletes who are already freaks of nature and making them better—the impact on the multi-billion dollar sports industry will be dramatic on players, managers, trainers, owners, and even fans. Interviewing athletes and coaches, visiting training camps and sports science firms, Brandon Sneed offers a firsthand, on-the-ground look at this exciting breakthrough that has the potential to transform to transform the game—and all our lives.

Heads-Up Dreaming
by Carlyle SmithA scientist shows us that we all have the biological capability to reduce uncertainty in our lives. . . Heads-Up Dreaming is a book about Dr. Smith's personal discovery of the ability to have dreams that seem to portray future waking events. While other writers have noted this before, what makes Smith's book unique is his thorough overview of the nature and characteristics of these kinds of dreams and how they differ from more ordinary ones. Through his research, he has discovered that people he knows (family, friends, and students) can also access "heads-up" dreams, suggesting this is a normal biological activity. Although it is an activity that appears to defy the rules of classical physics, it does not violate the rules of quantum physics. While some folks may be more accomplished at it than others - for example, he describes the dreams of one very talented individual who uses her dreams to guide her medical practice - it is an exercise available to all of us. Some of our most important decisions including choosing a life partner, buying homes or cars, changing jobs, are often made with partial information under considerable stress, using emotional rather than logical thinking. With Smith's process as a guide, you have the ability to eliminate some of life's uncertainty by interpreting your heads-up dreams - some or all of them will most likely have a thing or two to do with major decisions. In his experience, he's found these unique dreams often arrive in a timely manner and are typically neutral or positive. With this in mind, anyone concerned with only receiving negative predictions, should rest assured. Heads-Up Dreaming can teach anyone the basic ability to recognize heads-up dreams and to use them as a guide for making some of life's important decisions.
