Prealgebra prepares students for the rigors of algebra, and also teaches students problem-solving techniques to prepare them for prestigious middle school math contests such as MATHCOUNTS, MOEMS, and the AMC 8. Topics covered in the book include the properties of arithmetic, exponents, primes and divisors, fractions, equations and inequalities, decimals, ratios and proportions, unit conversions and rates, percents, square roots, basic geometry (angles, perimeter, area, triangles, and quadrilaterals), statistics, counting and probability, and more! The text is structured to inspire the reader to explore and develop new ideas. Each section starts with problems, giving the student a chance to solve them without help before proceeding. The text then includes solutions to these problems, through which algebraic techniques are taught. Important facts and powerful problem solving approaches are highlighted throughout the text. In addition to the instructional material, the book contains well over 1000 problems. The solutions manual (sold separately) contains full solutions to all of the problems, not just answers. This book can serve as a complete Prealgebra course. This text is supplemented by free videos and a free learning system at the publisher's website.

Excellent, excellent math instruction for the Mathematically inclined youngster
By Amazon Customer
First, some context, so you can decide if my opinion is useful to you. I'm a working electrical engineer who always enjoyed math as a student -- I almost majored in Applied Math in college; my son is a bright kid going into 5th grade who gets bored easily in math class and needs extra challenge. My goal with this book was not just to teach him faster than the school is teaching (although it is that, too,) but to teach him math to a greater *depth.* I wanted to make sure he learns *why* stuff works, and not just blindly memorize formulas for the test; I wanted to help him develop his problem-solving and critical thinking skills. In my view, Math instruction is not just about teaching Math, it's about teaching how to really *think.*

This book has met and exceeded all my expectations, and I cannot recommend it highly enough: the philosophy behind the 'Art of Problem Solving' -- the folks who wrote this book and others in the series, is that you learn more when you wrestle with ideas and try to figure them out for yourself than having them spoon-fed to you. So their approach is to begin each unit with problems for the student to sit down and try to solve for herself, using what she already knows. The problems help lead the student to discover (for example,) *why* the product of the square of two numbers is equal to the square of their product.

After attempting those problems, the student reads on and compares her solution with the one in the book, and a lot of the learning happens from reading and really *understanding* how and why the authors solved the problems the way they did. Along the way, the text will 'lecture' a bit, and point out important rules the students have 'proven', as well as introduce any unfamiliar terms needed for the next section.

Next, there are exercises at the end of each unit, for the student to practice what has been learned. These are NOT 'worksheet'-style problems like in elementary texts, where you have pages of basically the same problem over and over. These exercises seem to be hand-crafted to guide the student from simpler to harder problems, step by step, and they do a great job. Finally, at the end of each chapter (there are 5 or so units per chapter) there are whole-chapter review exercises of increasing difficulty, followed by 'challenge problems'.

The main difference between 'exercises' and 'challenge problems' is that it is expected that most students will be able to get most for the 'exercises' correctly by working through the chapter and working through the other examples. The challenge problems require more 'thinking outside the box' and some are really very challenging, even for folks like me, who survived differential equations in college. NOBODY should expect to figure them all out, certainly not without a LOT of effort, but everybody can learn from *trying* to solve them. Nobody *ever* asked me questions like this in my middle school classes, even in the honors classes, and yet my son, by trying to solve them (and he certainly can't solve all of them,) is gaining a *much* deeper understanding of the material than I ever had at his age. (To be honest, I've had fun wrestling with the harder ones myself, after he goes to bed. But I'm weird like that.)

IMPORTANT NOTES:

(1) If you are using this book as a private text -- as opposed to a middle-school classroom with an instructor -- YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED THE SOLUTIONS MANUAL; it's not just an answer key, it actually details *how* to solve every single problem in this book. Without it, there's no way for the student to check his work on the exercises, and they won't learn nearly as much; it's published as a separate volume mostly to let it be used as a classrom text, but most buyers should think of the two books as one indivisible item.

(2) THERE ARE OTHER, FREE SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIALS AVAILABLE -- the authors have a web site, artofproblemsolving.com, which also hosts literally *hundreds* of short youtube videos, many aligned to specific topics in the textbooks, and there's a pretty cool (currently free) tool called 'Alcumus' that challenges you with math problems of increasing difficulty in a quiz-game format. [solutions are shown after you answer, so you can learn even from the problem you don't solve.] They also host free online math competitions [quiz style] and paid online classes aligned with the text, but I can't comment on those because we haven't tried them - yet.

UPDATE: we tried the online PreAlgebra I class (covers the first half of the book) -- it is an excellent class, but be aware that it is generally aimed at kids who 'get math' and like it, and who are mature and disciplined enough to work hard at difficult things until they 'get it' -- if your kid requires a lot of hand-holding to get him to do the work, you will hate this class, but if he/she likes math and enjoys a challenge, they will learn a LOT. The format is more like a college class than a typical middle-school classroom; there's a through syllabus given out before the class starts, there are assigned reading and problems you are expected to solve, preferably before the weekly class meeting, and the content moves *fast* [generally one or at most two weeks per topic.] If your kid takes this seriously, I think you will get your money's worth out of the classes and then some, but it requires hard work and dedication.

(3) THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY -- although I firmly believe this philosophy of learning through solving problems is a *better* way to teach math than what most kids get in school, the level and pacing in this textbook seems clearly and deliberately aimed at the mathematically inclined or gifted reader.

(3a) Kids who don't "get" math or don't like it will, in my opinion, be enormously frustrated by this book, and kids whose parents don't "get" math may be unable to help them; of course that's true for any textbook; you have to know the subject, at least a little, to help your kids with their homework, right? :^)

(3b) [This caveat is aimed at a small group of people with truly exceptional kids - the 99.9+ %-ers] Kids who are very bright sometimes get freaked out when they have to struggle, if they can't easily get 100% scores on everything without really trying. Your child should *expect* to struggle with parts of this book, and come out knowing more at the end, but I don't think *anybody* is going to breeze through this book and get all the challenge problems correct. I believe it is critical to expose kids like this to 'insolvable' challenges so they can *learn* how to struggle with, and master difficult material. But some young, exceptionally gifted kids who are homeschooling might get overly frustrated and quit if they lack the emotional maturity to deal with the setbacks and the challenges productively.

It don't get no better.
By Tumblemark
I used to think that Rusczyk's *Algebra* was the best math text I had ever read. That was until *Prealgebra* came out last summer. Wow! It's brilliant!

*Algebra* was written just right for a (very sharp) high school mind. *Prealgebra* is perfectly dialed in to the (better be very sharp) middle school mind. The book is very challenging. It teaches with the most scientifically-proven effective technique there is: worked examples. There's almost nothing else. No photos, no cartoons, no distractions of any kind (cognitive load theory explains that these reduce learning). Just very straightforward working through of examples and a few bullet points. There are actually very few problems, and certainly not page after page of work sheets. And the problems themselves (most are word problems) are mind stretching. Then you move on.

I doubt if this book could be a text for a middle school class; the teaching would be too challenging (you definitely want to get the Solutions Manual, if only to see how the authors solve the problems). But for a kid who finds math boring, this will present all the challenge and engagement you could ask for. I suspect that it will take more than a school year to go through it, because it is so thorough. I use it with a small group of PG tweens (IQ > 145) and it is perfect for them after finishing Singapore Math 6A/B. They find it challenging and rewarding, insightful, engaging, and doesn't talk down to them. They know it's hard, but it's fun hard, and it's never boring.

I should mention: there are free step-by-step videos on the Art of Problem Solving dot com web site where Rusczyk teaches each point. You can go back and replay parts, stop the video, etc. I don't use them, because I find interacting with each of my students personally and addressing their issues individually works better. (My daughter snidely remarked on one: "He's doing it the hard way.") But I can certainly see how a parent would be happy to turn their math whiz over to the master himself. Find him on YouTube too.

This book will build a solid foundation for discrete math and combinatorics, sadly lacking in math education these days. I have but a single criticism: many times a problem could be solved using a pair of simultaneous linear equations but instead a more convoluted method is suggested. I suppose there's a reason for that. I'll have to ask Rusczyk the next time I see him -- after thanking him profusely for this fantastic text.

From Publishers Weekly
Philosopher and Le Monde columnist Droit's strange and delightful little volume explores some of the biggest questions in philosophy with exercises instead of terminology-laden tracts, by encouraging readers to discover the ways in which small or familiar acts-fasting, prowling, playing, telling a stranger she's beautiful-can become "the starting point for that astonishment which gives rise to philosophy." Each of the 101 exercises is carefully, even lovingly explained, with duration, necessary props and intended effect listed first. Exercise #31, for example, instructs readers to "Watch dust in the sun": it should take about 15 minutes, a room and sunlight are needed, and its effect is "reassuring." When a ray of sunlight enters a dark room, an "invisible world" of sparkling dust reveals itself-a symbol of the "stratum of existence that is both invisible and present" always. There are other worlds within ours, Droit reminds us, worlds that we might be able to see with only a metaphoric readjustment of shutters. There are exercises to calm, to disorient, to humanize, to displace; for instance, listening to shortwave radio at night, Droit writes, will help readers realize that "perpetually around you, woven into the air...are these hundreds of voices murmuring, in dozens of unknown or unrecognizable languages, of which you know nothing, expect that they spread an obscure and changing human crust, unendingly, over everything." Already a bestseller in Europe, this volume should appeal to anyone who has ever asked questions about perception or identity, or wanted a new way to see the world and the self.

Shifting Awareness
By C. Middleton
This is a very strange book, but in the end, a useful one.

Experts of the mind and human behaviour have proposed that most of us carry on throughout our lives on automatic pilot. Because of habit, daily routine and repetition, we inadvertently create mental machinery to do our tasks without too much effort. As we grow older, too, our perceptions of the world have a tendency to dull, our opinions on matters political and otherwise refuse to see other perspectives, we are less inclined to learn new things, in other words, we become set in our ways. As the old saying goes: "You can't teach an old dog new tricks". This text provides us with some absurd and interesting exercises designed to break down our mental machinery, shake up our preconceived notions of the world, our fixed ideas, and perhaps see the world from a clean slate. In some cases, as the title suggests, the outcomes can be astonishing.

For example, number 15, "Walk in the Dark". The duration should only be a few minutes and the effect is that uncomfortable sensation of disorientation. Interestingly, the world actually changes when we attempt to orient ourselves in pitch-black conditions. We cannot depend on the light and must use our other senses to move around. This exercise hones your other senses, changing your views on "reality" and pushes you to move into present time.

One of the exercises that I found most rewarding is number 67, "Watch someone Sleeping". Having been with my partner for some years now, I believed I knew everything about her from her eyebrows to that tiny mole on her left shoulder. Time and familiarity has a tendency to make one take for granted those things and people that we depend on the most. Watching her sleep, listening to her slow and rhythmic breathing, suddenly I perceive a kind of "innocence", a face that somehow appears different, more beautiful, much less familiar. I no longer take her for granted because I've seen her in a different way.

A more banal exercise, and one most of us have experienced at one point or another is number 77, "Listen to your own voice". More often than not, our response is, "That doesn't sound like me!" If you are not used to hearing yourself, it can be a dislocating experience, which is the point. The exercise tends to impose an objective point of view on us, hearing yourself as possibly others see or hear you. It breaks up our preconceived notions, providing a fresh look at "I".

As the author has stated, this book is about entertainment. These exercises can be fun, however, they also can shift your awareness slightly, creating astonishing feelings, seeing the world from different points of view.

To my way of thinking, this can only be worthwhile.

Experiments with your head
By Munir Hassan
This book serves two purposes:
(1) It is a talking point. Leave it somewhere visible, say on your coffee table, and just wait for the reactions: incredulous, unbelieving, provoking fascinated expressions, engrossed furrowed foreheads and wry smiles.
(2) It is a book of practical experiments. There is something for everyone. Count to a thousand - seems simple? Try it. Its not the monotonous regular task simple mathmatics might suggest. It is more of a rollercoaster ride, with clickety click ups, exhilerating downs, mind numbing bends... And what do we learn? According to Pol Droit - that 1,000 is a very, very big number. And 1,000,000 is emotionally incomprehensible. He's right. Call to yourself, play the animal, imagine a pile of human organs, empty a word of its meaning, kill people in your head, take the tube without going anywhere specific. This is self-help without the Oprah factor, and with lashings of delicious humour. Pol Droit's experiments are designed to help committed experimenters see the world, and their experience of it, in a context slightly out of the ordinary. Freeze frame a moment, an action, a thought and, like watching someone dancing to music without the music, the fragile architecture on which our experience of the world rests is exposed.
Try it, you might even like it. Better (or worse) still, you might discover a dark corner of yourself you never wanted to know about.

Play
By Mel N. Jolly
This book is like propaganda for the existentially playful. If you are neither existentially inclined nor playful, this book will do nothing for you. If, however, you are both, you will like it a lot. If you have read and enjoyed Walker Percy, that will probably help.

This is not a self-help book. If you are odd, it will probably help to make you odder.

Most updated textbook on medical laws
By Lee Fook Kay Aaron
I would very much like to recommend this textbook on medical laws published in 2010.
Most of the law libraries should save a copy for it's members as a reference for students learning undergraduate or postgraduate courses in medical laws or mental health laws.
The author, Johnathan Herring is the contemporary writer in medical laws and ethics.
Readers interested in medico legal litigation should not miss this classical textbook.

What is consciousness? How do physical processes in the brain give rise to the self-aware mind and to feelings as profoundly varied as love or hate, aesthetic pleasure or spiritual yearning? These questions today are among the most hotly debated issues among scientists and philosophers, and we have seen in recent years superb volumes by such eminent figures as Francis Crick, Daniel C. Dennett, Gerald Edelman, and Roger Penrose, all firing volleys in what has come to be called the consciousness wars. Now, in The Conscious Mind, philosopher David J. Chalmers offers a cogent analysis of this heated debate as he unveils a major new theory of consciousness, one that rejects the prevailing reductionist trend of science, while offering provocative insights into the relationship between mind and brain.
Writing in a rigorous, thought-provoking style, the author takes us on a far-reaching tour through the philosophical ramifications of consciousness. Chalmers convincingly reveals how contemporary cognitive science and neurobiology have failed to explain how and why mental events emerge from physiological occurrences in the brain. He proposes instead that conscious experience must be understood in an entirely new light--as an irreducible entity (similar to such physical properties as time, mass, and space) that exists at a fundamental level and cannot be understood as the sum of its parts. And after suggesting some intriguing possibilities about the structure and laws of conscious experience, he details how his unique reinterpretation of the mind could be the focus of a new science. Throughout the book, Chalmers provides fascinating thought experiments that trenchantly illustrate his ideas. For example, in exploring the notion that consciousness could be experienced by machines as well as humans, Chalmers asks us to imagine a thinking brain in which neurons are slowly replaced by silicon chips that precisely duplicate their functions--as the neurons are replaced, will consciousness gradually fade away? The book also features thoughtful discussions of how the author's theories might be practically applied to subjects as diverse as artificial intelligence and the interpretation of quantum mechanics.
All of us have pondered the nature and meaning of consciousness. Engaging and penetrating, The Conscious Mind adds a fresh new perspective to the subject that is sure to spark debate about our understanding of the mind for years to come.

From Library Journal
Chalmers (philosophy, Univ. of California at Santa Cruz) analyzes the mind-body problem in terms of that elusive relationship between the physical brain and conscious events. Focusing on subjective experience as such, he rejects all reductive (materialist) explanations for conscious experience in favor of a metaphysical framework supporting a strong form of property dualism. His theory is grounded in natural supervenience, the distinction between psychological and phenomenological properties of mind, and a novel view of the ontological status of consciousness itself. Chalmers uses thought experiments (e.g., zombie worlds, silicon chips, a global brain, and inverted spectra) and discusses such issues as causation, intentionality, and epiphenomenalism. Even so, the critical reader is left asking, How can physical facts be relevant to the emergence of consciousness beyond an evolutionary naturalist worldview. Ongoing neuroscience research may provide a sufficient explanation of consciousness within a materialistic framework. Nevertheless, as a scholarly contribution to modern philosophy, this is suitable for all academic and large public libraries.?H. James Birx, Canisius Coll., Buffalo, N.Y.

A very good book. I work in the field of consciousness ...
By y pinto
A very good book. I work in the field of consciousness research, so I guess I'm biased with a lot of background knowledge, but I'd say, for experts this book is excellent. Chalmers approaches this problem like a mathematician. He doesn't cling to intuitions or cherished beliefs, he simply constructs arguments with cold-hearted rational thinking. His main point can actually be summarized quite simply: we, as a matter of fact, cannot deduce experiences from functional interactions. We can deduce output, and other functions, but not experiences. This then suggests a simple implication: experiences, unlike normal material entities, are not encompassed fully by functions (although they clearly correlate with it).
I'd say you really appreciate this as someone working in the field (more maybe than if you don't), because the problems he predicts are exactly the problems that arise. Every theory of consciousness at some points hits a brick wall. Global Workspace: highlighted information is conscious; IIT: integrated information is conscious; recurrently processed information is conscious; attended or memorized information is conscious; information generating meta information is conscious; neuronal interactions at 40Hz generate consciousness, and so on.
The problem with every theory, in the end, is that the starting point seems arbitrary and not rationally explainable. Why should 40Hz oscillations lead to experiences, but 39 Hz not? Why can information not simply be integrated unconsciously? What's so special about memory that it requires consciousness (as opposed to calculating root squares for instance)?
These problems that we run into in the practice of consciousness research highlight Chalmers's points: there is, in our understanding, an unbridgeable gap between functions and experiences. This makes the problem of consciousness considerably more intractable then nearly all other scientific problems.

Well written and argued but ultimately unsatisfying as an explanation of consciousness
By Matthew Rapaport
I admit up front I'm a Chalmers fan and that is not to say that I agree with his many of his speculations concerning properties of the universe yielding consciousness. I like the way Chalmers angles at a subject and explores objections to his view at every step of the process. He does incorporate certain assumptions he fails to explore however and they turn out to be significant.

This is Chalmers' first book (1997) on consciousness, a subject he reprises in 2010 with "The Character of Consciousness" a book I reviewed some time back. In some ways, this book is a clearer exposition than the reprise. The subject matter is more clearly divided. In the first part of the book he argues that materialism must be false because consciousness does not logically supervene on physical process though it does "naturally supervene" on them. His arguments here are carefully crafted and reasonably convincing. He pays careful attention to distinguishing consciousness (the "what it is like to be" nature of subjective experience) from psychological or cognitive states. He is a little to quick here to define this line so sharply but he uses this clean distinction to get a handle on why it is so difficult to connect brain states directly to the subjective experience of consciousness. This line of argument leads Chalmers to a "property dualism" in which a new phenomenon, consciousness that is real but not physical nevertheless emerges from the physical, that is the causally closed physics of modern science. He uses the second half of his book, less persuasively, to propose a speculative solution. So how does this all go?

Chalmers posits a set of psychophysical or phenomenal laws in parallel with physical laws. These other laws are not merely aspects of physical law which physicists have not yet discovered (along lines of Thomas Nagel's "anomalous monism"). Rather they are a complete set of laws, independent of the physical that happen to exist in parallel with it. They are undetectable by physics and moreover they really do not have any effect on the evolution of the universe until the right kind of organization happens to come along (something that might not have happened)at which time they serve to connect up with the physical organization to evoke the new phenomenon of mind.

Chalmers glibly assumes that the laws of physics and the psychophysical are eternal. This assumption is problematic for various reasons not central to his theme here, but it does impinge on it. If the physical universe had a beginning, what sense can be made of laws existing eternally prior to there being anything for them to govern or describe? Where does eternality come from? Moreover, an "eternal laws" would imply that all the particulars of relations between particles, radiation, and fields of the physical universe (including the various arbitrary constants that, being what they are, allow for the development of galaxies, stars, planets, and even life) were not just accidents that could have settled into other values but rather had to come out as they did.

This is the important part. If only the physical laws had any effect on cosmological evolution up to the appearance of certain organizations then it is quite possible that those types of organizations might never have appeared (they are accidents of contingency). If that had been the history of our universe, then the psychophysical would have been entirely redundant. On the other hand, if the non-material laws had some influence on physical evolution, then that influence ought to be measurable, at least in principle. There is no evidence of such an effect in physics of course and Chalmers doesn't really care whether life and subsequent consciousness are pure accidents or were in some manner directed. It is the hypothesized connection between the physical and the psychophysical that gives him the "natural supervenience" of the mental on the physical his theory requires.

Perhaps an example of my own would make this clearer. Imagine physical law (eternal or otherwise)governs how hydrogen and oxygen interact to form water and produce its special properties. Now imagine that there is, in parallel with physical law, another law (call it XYZ) that is not physical and cannot be detected by any measurement. XYZ is entirely redundant to normal physics and the evolution of physical systems. But whenever liquid water is brought to a temperature of 300F, XYZ turns the water into a purple goo. Now normally there is no liquid water at 300F and so the XYZ law never has any effect on anything but it nevertheless exists along with the more conventional laws of physics that govern the properties of water. At some point in the evolution of the universe there come to be creatures who learn to put water under pressure and do bring its liquid state to a temperature of 300F. To everyone's surprise, the water turns into purple goo but it remains the case that as before XYZ remains strictly undetectable by physics. What Chalmers would say here is that purple goo does not "logically supervene" on the ordinary laws of physics because we can imagine liquid water at 300F without it becoming purple goo. But purple goo does "naturally supervene" on the laws of physics because XYZ always and automatically connects up water and purple goo whenever the physical conditions are made right.

My analogy goes only so far as purple goo is presumably a physical stuff while consciousness is not. Of course there is no non-physical XYZ that turns water into a purple goo. But Chalmers claims exactly this for the phenomenon of consciousness which is non-material (something for which he argues persuasively) and therefore demands a postulate of psychophysical laws which connect up with the physical under appropriate conditions resulting in a non-physical phenomenon. We can imagine all sorts of complex brain states and functional organizations existing, even having psychological and behavioral effects measureable by third parties, without there being any consciousness, that is any experience of what it is like to be a subject. But because psychophysical laws also exist (undetectable by physics), when and if sufficient functional organization comes along (whether in biology, computers, or even societies of persons) the psychophysical laws will be entangled (or activated or envoked) by the functional organization and map the physical organization into a subjective experience.

This is a proper "property dualism" for which Chalmers argues. It is a dualism because there is truly something different, that is not material, that emerges in the universe, and it is a "property dualism" because its dualistic (non-material) properties come not from some special antecedent source (for example God as in substance dualism) but from material physics albeit conjoined with psychophysical laws which are (a) non-physical, (b) eternal like the physical laws, and (c) the connecting link between the physical and the subjective-mental.

The well known dilemma of substance dualism is the "interaction problem" which challenges the doctrine on the grounds that there is no mechanism by which the physical can interact with the non-material mind stuff. For all his careful work in this book, Chalmers never appreciates the irony that his psychophysical laws must suffer from the very same interaction problem. He offers no mechanism by which this interaction takes place, that is, how it is that certain functional organizations of physical stuff become entangled with the non-physical psychophysical laws. In the end, therefore, while this book is a good example of philosophical exposition, it ends up being very unsatisfying as an explanation for consciousness.

Conscious Mind Searches for Its Transcendent Origin
By Alex Vary
In The Journal of Consciousness Studies, David Chalmers wrote: “ Consciousness poses the most baffling problems in the science of the mind. There is nothing that we know more intimately than conscious experience, but there is nothing that is harder to explain. All sorts of mental phenomena have yielded to scientific investigation in recent years, but consciousness has stubbornly resisted.” The mystery of consciousness revolves around the question: “How can living physical bodies in the physical world acquire such phenomena?” Chalmers favors the non-reductionist, non-physical approach which may ultimately provide pivotal concepts needed to resolve the question.

In The Conscious Mind: In Search of a Fundamental Theory, David Chalmers introduces the notion of the hard problem of consciousness. According to Chalmers, the hard problem of consciousness is explaining how we experience it with respect to: (1) sensory inputs and the mysterious modes of their neural processing and (2) qualia - phenomena where the processing is accompanied by ineffably subjective aspects of conscious experience which apprehend the redness of red, the beauty of mathematical forms, love, the selfness experience. These have a relationship with physical brain-states, but are not identical to brain states because they are transcendent - essentially objectively unmeasurable - states of consciousness.

Chalmers observes that subjective information processing invariably accompanies sensory and neural signal processing. We do not just retain visual sensations; we judge the quality of colors, the contrast of dark and light, the quality of depth in a visual field with meaningful images that are conjured up mentally, that are felt emotionally, and inspire experiential conscious thought. What unites these states of consciousness somehow transcends the physical sensory experiences.

Empirical science and neuroscience have attempted to explain the nature of conscious experience. But to fully account for conscious experience, Chalmers suggests that we need an extra ingredient to explain and elucidate the hard problem of consciousness. That extra ingredient should explain how accumulated experiences, arising in and retained by the brain, are elaborated, interpreted, and qualified by our consciousness.

Roger Penrose and Staurt Hameroff (Toward a Science of Consciousness), suggest that human cognition may depend on quantum wavefunction collapses in microtubules, the cytoskeletons of a neuron. Penrose and Hameroff suspect that wavefunction collapse in microtubules may be the physical basis of conscious experience. In The Conscious Mind, Chalmers writes that although “these ideas are extremely speculative . . . they could at least conceivably help to explain certain elements of human cognitive functioning.”

Our embodiment is primarily a survival machine with no inherent consciousness, a Chalmerian zombie. In The Conscious Mind David Chalmers describes an isomorph, “A zombie [that] is just something physically identical to me but which has no conscious experience ‒ all is dark inside.” In any case, survival machines are programmed to respond to and survive their environments, to replicate and evolve, without any urgent need to assume human consciousness or engage in social intercourse.

Chalmers argues for the transcendent nature of consciousness; insisting that “consciousness is simply not to be characterized as a functional property” and that, “No explanation given wholly in physical terms can ever account for the emergence of conscious experience.” In My Universe - A Transcendent Reality, author Alex Vary proposes a conceptual framework to help elucidate the transcendent nature of consciousness and its relation to the physical world. The proposed framework is based on deductions and information revealed primarily by distinct quantum phenomena which are demonstrably transcendent. An essential feature of the framework is the mesostratum; a signal transmission modality. The mesostratum machinery that Vary imagines offers an explanatory gap-filling linkage from a transcendent continuum to a physical neural discontinuum. Vary suggests ways to access the mesostratum, to explore it, to explain the nature of human consciousness; and cites examples of access to the mesostratum. Chalmers essentially intuits that non-physical agencies (perhaps mesostratum agencies) participated in the appearance and evolution of human consciousness. If mesostratum agencies modulate human consciousness then at least select humans should be able to reciprocally access, explore, and exploit resources of the mesostratum. Anecdotal examples are legion: prodigious savants, geniuses, virtuosos, such as Mozart, Goethe, John von Neuman.

Thorough and suitable for the experienced professional
By Mike Tarrani
This book is an excellent follow-on book to Computer Forensics: Incident Response Essentials by Kruse and Heiser, which introduces the fundamentals. This book goes much deeper and is more technical than the Kruse and Heise, therefore the ideal audience is practicing professionals who have prior experience in forensics and a wide range of hardware, software and network knowledge.
Tools and techniques are presented in painstaking detail. I was unable to find a single gap or omission, which speaks highly of the editorial and review process behind this book's 464 pages. While most technical disciplines can dispense with finer details, the nature of forensics is to overlook nothing. If you find the step-by-step thoroughness boring that is an indication that forensics may not be your forte; if you're an experienced professional you'll appreciate the coverage of every technique or use of tools.

While the discussion of tools and techniques will satisfy even the most experienced practitioner, I found the detailed discussion of legal aspects, HR considerations and overall security and incident response processes to be the book's strongest points. This area is what sets forensics experts apart from technicians, and it is here that the book (in my opinion) adds the most value. Procedures ranging from how to properly gather, preserve and control evidence, to legal considerations for designing processes are covered in clear language, as are US and international legal guidelines.
Parts that I especially like include: intrusion management and profiling, up-to-date information on electronic commerce legal issues, the numerous checklists and cited resources, and the clearly delineated process for dealing with incidents.
If you're new to forensics you will probably get more from this book by first reading Computer Forensics: Incident Response Essentials by Kruse and Heiser. If, however, you have previous computer forensics experience or are currently serving in that role this book is probably one of the best investments you can make.

By T.C.
I only ordered this book because I was told I have to have it. Most of the time I find the books to be cheaper on Amazon than with the school or their book stores. Make sure you shop before using the schools to obtain the materials you need to complete your courses. This is a college book that I had to order to fulfill my class work. The book provided the information I needed to complete the entire task assigned by the facilitator. To most people there will be nothing special about this book. And I would imagine that if you are buying this book you are not doing so out of fun. Good luck in your future courses and positions. May all your classes bring you much knowledge.

A great blueprint for an abundant life!
By KevinR
I just finished reading Robin Marvel's Reshaping Reality: Creating Your Life, and am very impressed. Robin has crafted a step-by-step blueprint for creating a more joyful, fulfilling and authentic life. The paradigm change for many of Robin's readers may be the simple fact that you are responsible for creating your own reality, that you must make the choice for happiness. Unfortunately, so many among us live life from the outside-in, subject to the whims of outside events, others' words or expectations or concerns about what might happen in the future. Robin shows her readers, in easily understood terms illustrated with examples and personal stories, that the key to a joyful life of purpose is living life from the inside-out, where you create your own reality. This is an easy, quick read, yet quite powerful. I highly recommend this valuable book!

Great Little Book for Healing Your Past
By Barbara Sinor, Ph.D.
"Reshaping Reality" is a perfect introduction book to those adults who want to begin their healing journey from a traumatic childhood. It is filled with exercises the reader can enlist to step on the path of inner exploration to regaining a sense of personal power. Marvel states: "Know that your beliefs and truths create who you are and can change and expand at anytime. Do not ever limit yourselves to what is supposed to be--create what Is." This is just one of the potent instructions offered in this small, however, insightful guidebook. I can recommend it for any adult who wishes to let go of a past filled with pain and trauma.
