Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Can a person read another mind, name a hidden object, or nudge a machine by intention alone? Parapsychology has spent more than 140 years putting those claims in a laboratory, and this book lays out what the experiments actually found. The answer isn't a tidy one, and the book says so plainly. Some effects keep turning up in the data at small sizes. Critics reply that small effects are what flawed methods and unpublished failures produce. Both readings fit the record, and you get the case for each, arranged in the order that makes it easiest to judge for yourself. The chapters work through: - The vocabulary every trial depends on: sender, receiver, target, hit rate, effect size - Mesmer's magnetized tub, Victorian seance rooms, the Society for Psychical Research in 1882, and J.B. Rhine's Zener card work at Duke that turned a fringe interest into laboratory science - Telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and the ganzfeld procedure, in which a receiver rests under halved ping pong balls and soft noise while someone in another room concentrates on a picture - Metal bending, dice tests, and random number generator studies - Experimental design and judgment: randomization, blinding, statistical power, what a p-value tells you about a tiny effect, and how meta-analysis pools many studies into one number - Survival research, covering triple-blind mediumship readings, the AWARE hospital study of near-death reports, and the past-life case files of Ian Stevenson and Jim Tucker - Crisis apparitions and poltergeists, alongside the plain causes behind many haunting reports: infrasound, drafts, carbon monoxide, mold, and suggestion - The skeptical case at full strength: the Fox sisters' confession, S.G. Soal's data, Project Alpha, cold reading, and the Barnum effect - Project Stargate, the PEAR lab, quantum-flavored theories, and what one decisive experiment would have to look like You need no background in science or statistics. Every technical idea gets explained in plain terms the first time it appears, using real cases and real trials. That makes it a fit for curious general readers, for students meeting research methods for the first time, for podcast and documentary fans who want the actual record behind the stories, and for skeptics who want the strongest claims stated fairly before they dismiss them. The back matter is built for study: a historical timeline of the field, discussion questions at the end of each chapter with worked example answers, a glossary, works cited, and annotated further reading that points you to the original research. Read this if you want the honest record rather than a sales pitch in either direction. Once you reach the end, you'll be able to meet any strange claim and ask the questions that matter: how was this tested, could anyone have cheated, how big was the result, and did another lab get the same thing?

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Art history makes sense once you know how to look. This book teaches the six methods specialists actually use, then walks you through 40,000 years of art, from cave painting at Chauvet to work that sells as a digital file. Chapter 1 builds the foundations, six ways of reading an object that scholars, curators, and auction houses use daily. The eight chapters after it move in chronological order, so each period grows out of the pressures, money, and arguments of the one before it. Close to sixty images run alongside the text, and every chapter ends with discussion questions that have worked answers in the back. The chapters cover: - Formal analysis, iconography, provenance, attribution, patronage, and conservation, the six tools you apply to every work in the rest of the book - Prehistoric cave painting, Mesopotamian relief carved for kings, Egyptian tomb art and its three-thousand-year rules for drawing the body, and Greek sculpture as it loosens into figures that look about to move - Byzantine gold mosaics, Gothic stained glass, and Islamic geometric pattern - Brunelleschi solving linear perspective in Florence around 1420, then Donatello, Masaccio, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Titian - Van Eyck's oil glazes, Durer's prints, Caravaggio's harsh light, Bernini's marble caught mid-motion, and the roughly eighty self-portraits Rembrandt painted across his own life - Watteau's park scenes, David painting the dead Marat in his bath in 1793, Goya's late work, and Romantic weather in Turner and Friedrich - Courbet, Monet's repeated haystacks, Manet's Olympia, Van Gogh, Cezanne, Seurat's dots of color, and Gauguin - Cubism broken into facets by Picasso and Braque, Matisse turning color loose, German Expressionism, Futurism, and Duchamp entering a factory-made urinal in a 1917 exhibition under a fake name - Pollock's poured canvases, Warhol's silkscreened soup cans, Minimalism stripped to plain boxes, Conceptual art, and the Biennale circuit that runs the global scene now Written for students in a first art history or art appreciation course, museum visitors who want to know what they are looking at, and adults filling a gap in their own education. No background is assumed, no term shows up without a plain explanation, and the writing stays direct instead of academic. If you've ever stood in a gallery feeling like everyone around you was seeing something you missed, this book closes that gap. The back matter carries a timeline placing every period and major work in sequence, a glossary of roughly ninety terms, worked answers to all the discussion questions, and a reading list with a note on what each recommended title actually does well. Read it once and you have the vocabulary. Read it again and the sequence sticks. You finish with a set of questions you can put to any object in any museum, and a run of periods that finally holds together. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Acting is a craft, and craft can be learned. This beginner's guide breaks the work into skills you can name, practice, and repeat, whether you're playing a Tuesday matinee or the fifteenth take of the same scene. Every term gets defined in plain language before it is used, and each chapter builds on the one before it, so the book rewards reading in order. Nine chapters move from a working definition of the job through script analysis, character building, voice, rehearsal, and the camera. Each one ends with discussion questions, not as a quiz, but to help you better interact with the material. The chapters cover: - What the job actually is, and why a character who wants something under pressure gives you real behavior instead of mood - Relaxation, breath, alignment, sense memory, and the circle of attention - Stanislavski, Strasberg, Adler, Meisner, Michael Chekhov, Brecht, and Grotowski compared side by side, so you can see why two respected teachers hand you flatly opposite advice - Objectives, obstacles, stakes, tactics, beats, and subtext - Reading a script the way an actor reads it, including the verb test that separates a want you can play from a state of being you can only fake - Backstory that changes behavior, physical life and tempo-rhythm, status, contradiction, and playing someone whose values you reject - Grief and tears on cue, emotional recall and its risks, de-roling after a heavy night, and how intimacy scenes get staged with a coordinator - Breath support, articulation at speed, accents built from phonetics, and the rhythm of Shakespeare's verse - Camera work from marks and eyelines to shooting out of sequence, plus self-tapes, agents, unions, and honest numbers on what the job pays Written for people at the start. First-year students drowning in vocabulary, community theatre actors who want to know why one scene clicked and the next died on stage, adults coming back to it after twenty years away, and self-taught performers with no class to attend. No prior training assumed and no jargon left unexplained. Four sections follow the final chapter: - A timeline of the profession, from Thespis stepping out of the Greek chorus around 534 BCE to actors taping auditions on their phones - Example answers to every end-of-chapter question, so you can check your thinking against a worked response - A glossary defining every term in one place, from actioning and endowment to gestus and the magic if - A works cited and recommended reading list pointing to what to pick up next Reading about the work of course isn't the same as doing it, and no book replaces standing up in front of other people. What this one gives you is the vocabulary, the questions to ask of any script, and a clear sense of what you're training when you train. Read it straight through for the framework, then keep it next to whatever script is on the table. This item is printed on demand.
