Описание: David Eagleman`s bestselling, sparkling and provocative book on neuroscience now part of the Canongate Canons series
In this provocative book, Paul Glimcher argues that economic theory may provide an alternative to the classical Cartesian model of the brain and behavior. Glimcher argues that Cartesian dualism operates from the false premise that the reflex is able to describe behavior in the real world that animals inhabit. A mathematically rich cognitive theory, he claims, could solve the most difficult problems that any environment could present, eliminating the need for dualism by eliminating the need for a reflex theory. Such a mathematically rigorous description of the neural processes that connect sensation and action, he explains, will have its roots in microeconomic theory. Economic theory allows physiologists to define both the optimal course of action that an animal might select and a mathematical route by which that optimal solution can be derived. Glimcher outlines what an economics-based cognitive model might look like and how one would begin to test it empirically. Along the way, he presents a fascinating history of neuroscience. He also discusses related questions about determinism, free will, and the stochastic nature of complex behavior.

Описание: This volume makes a contribution to the field of neurolaw by investigating issues raised by the development, use, and regulation of neurointerventions. The broad range of topics covered in these chapters reflects neurolaw's growing social import, and its rapid expansion as an academic field of inquiry. Some authors investigate the criminal justice system's use of neurointerventions to make accused defendants fit for trial, to help reform convicted offenders, or to make condemned inmates sane enough for execution, while others interrogate the use, regulation, and social impact of cognitive enhancement medications and devices. Issues raised by neurointervention-based gay conversion therapy, efficacy and safety of specific neurointervention methods, legitimacy of their use and regulation, and their implications for authenticity, identity, and responsibility are among the other topics investigated. Dwelling on neurointerventions also highlights tacit assumptions about human nature that have important implications for jurisprudence. For all we know, at present such things as people's capacity to feel pain, their sexuality, and the dictates of their conscience, are unalterable. But neurointerventions could hypothetically turn such constants into variables. The increasing malleability of human nature means that analytic jurisprudential claims (true in virtue of meanings of jurisprudential concepts) must be distinguished from synthetic jurisprudential claims (contingent on what humans are actually like). Looking at the law through the lens of neurointerventions thus also highlights the growing need for a new distinction -- between analytic jurisprudence and synthetic jurisprudence -- to tackle issues that increasingly malleable humans will face when they encounter novel opportunities and challenges.

WHAT IS SELF-DISCIPLINE?
Self-discipline is the ability to focus intently on a task or goal with the purpose of achieving a certain result.

Self-disciplined individuals commonly rely on a group of other traits, such as:
Ambition
Focus
Organization
Persistence
Responsibility
Resilience
Strong work ethic
It's like a superpower: when I developed some self-discipline, I started exercising and eating healthier and meditating and writing more, I quit smoking and ran marathons, I started a blog and wrote books, I read more and work earlier, I decluttered and transformed my finances. I'm far from perfect, but I've learned a lot.

Considering that so much of what we do on a daily basis is habit-driven, developing the right habits will help to instill the right amount of discipline into our lives.
But where do habits come from and how are they developed? And why is that when we try to change our habits by either breaking bad habits or building good habits, we only follow through for so long before we give up and revert to our old ways?
Like everything else that brings progress, the greatest struggle is always within ourselves. That's why you need to learn self-discipline.

Being aware of all this is just the beginning of success.
This book is centered on a phenomenon known as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is a modern talking therapy that is proven to be extremely useful in treating depression and anxiety disorders. It is known to be most effective for treating Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), which is the activity where therapists help individuals to cope with a large range of emotional problems, and self-esteem is one of them. This is achieved by analyzing the bridge that links our thoughts (the cognitive side) and our feelings (both physical and emotional), and our actions (the behavior we portray).
CBT is one of the most accessible therapies presently, and due to its structured nature, individuals who require it are able to use it in many different formats, including; one-on-one therapy, group therapy, self-help books, and computer programs.

Self-discipline is controlling your own thoughts, emotions, actions, and desires through self-improvement methods. The goal is that you will focus on developing your self-discipline by trying to better yourself every day. Learning self-discipline is not easy, but you will quickly notice the benefits and strive to better yourself in order to keep those benefits in your life.
Have you ever heard someone set a goal for themselves, fail to achieve it, and then declare that it was not that important to them anyway?
Getting out of this rut of constantly trying to justify why your dreams and goals are not that important to you to avoid the pain of realizing that you are not progressing toward them, is probably the number one biggest reason why you need self-discipline.
Self-discipline is not denying yourself life's pleasures, it is a pleasant experience that you will find achievable.
You will find some of the tips on how you can develop self discipline in the chapters of this book that include:
The Fundamentals of self-discipline
Habits
Fear of Failure/Success/Rejection/Risks
Mental Toughness
Accept Mistakes and Reap Rewards

Being self-disciplined means that you can choose the goals that align with what you really want in life and then stop at nothing to see those goals become a success. This means you are capable of saying NO to instant gratification, in favor of achieving delayed gratification.
Delayed gratification will bring you far greater results and happiness in your life.
Whether you realize it or not, meaningful goals are important to your life and they will immensely increase the quality of your life overall.
Many people compare Self-Discipline to a Superpower.
