The brain at rest : how the art and science of doing nothing can improve your life / by Jebelli, Joseph,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."A narrative exploration of the science of "doing nothing" and its astonishing benefits for the brain and body, from neuroscientist and author of How the Mind Changed Everything Dr. Joseph Jebelli. We are living in the age of burnout -- even in our quietest moments, we are busier than ever, overwhelmed, and unable to disconnect from work, relationships, and current events. We view productivity as good, and idleness as bad, yet the secret to enhancing intelligence, creativity, social empathy, and emotional processing lies in a single act -- doing nothing. In The Brain at Rest, Dr. Joseph Jebelli blends science, stories, and practical tips in a nuanced exploration of the "default network," a brain system that participates in daydreaming, reflective thinking, and visualizing the future. In doing so, he shows the benefits of harnessing this network, such as reducing chances of developing depression and dementia, and helps us put these findings into practice. Perfect for readers interested in science and creativity, or anyone feeling overwhelmed in their day-to-day life, The Brain at Rest is a deeply-researched and entertaining antidote to burnout that definitively proves how even 5 to 10 minutes of doing nothing can better our lives"--

First strike / by Coes, Ben,author.;
"The violent terrorist group ISIS has launched a major military campaign to take over Syria. But as they commit more and more public atrocities, their sources for ammunition are drying up. However, their charismatic and tyrannical leader, Tristan Nazir, has a major card left to play, which will get a new secret shipment of arms underway. Dewey Andreas is sent into the field to meet Mallory, the Milan CIA station chief who has explosive proof about the source of the terrorists group's original funding. While ISIS operatives take out both Mallory and his source, Dewey escapes with the proof the group's original munitions were provided by a black-ops program from deep within the Pentagon itself. The program unravels in time for the arms shipment to be stopped before it reaches its destination. But Nazir isn't finished. He launches a bold strike into the heart of America, sending a team to take over a dorm at Columbia University, capturing nearly 500 college students as hostages. Among those hostages is CIA Director Hector Calibrisi's daughter, Daisy. For every hour that the shipment of weapons is delayed, the radicals will publicly execute one student. A frontal assault will result in untold number of dead students. Sending the shipment will give Nazir and his followers the means to capture Syria and its resources, creating a terrorist run nation. In a situation with no solutions, there remains only one option Dewey Andreas"--

Run for your life / by Cucuzzella, Mark,author.; Coburn, Broughton,1951-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The first running book by a world's leading pioneering running doctor and athlete, creator of the Air Force's Efficient Running program--the result of more than three decades of study, practice, and science that shows us in clearly illustrated and accessible text how easy it is to run efficiently and injury-free, whether you're in your 20s, 60s or 70s; for beginning runners and experienced marathoners. In Run for your life, Dr. Mark Cucuzzella explains the simple mechanics of how our bodies have evolved and adapted to run. Despite our natural ability and our human need to run, each year more than half of all runners suffer injuries. Pain and discouragement inevitably follow. Cucuzzella's book outlines the proven, practical techniques to avoid injury and reach the goal of personal fitness and overall health. His book--the first running book to be written by a Professor of Medicine with the credibility of the Air Force behind him--gives us a straightforward, easy-to-follow look at the anatomy, bio-mechanics, nutrition, and/or clinical medicine with clear drawings and black-and-white photographs. The book provides illustrated exercises designed to teach healthy running, along with simple progressions, a weekly/monthly schedule detailing common mistakes and cautions that allow the reader to tailor the training regime to individual needs and abilities."--
