Title: Jane on the Brain

Subtitle: Exploring the Science of Social Intelligence with Jane Austen

Author: Wendy Jones

Narrator: Cassandra Campbell

Format: Unabridged

Length: 16 hrs and 5 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-05-17

Publisher: HighBridge, a division of Recorded Books

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

Why is Jane Austen so phenomenally popular? Why do we go back to Pride and Prejudice again and again? Why do we delight in Emma's mischievous schemes? Why do we care that Anne Elliot of Persuasion suffers?

We care because it is our biological destiny to be interested in people and their stories - the human brain is a social brain. And Austen's characters are so believable, that for many of us, they are not just imaginary beings, but friends whom we know and love. And thanks to Austen's ability to capture the breadth and depth of human psychology so thoroughly, we feel that she empathizes with us, her readers and listeners.

Humans have a profound need for empathy, to know that we are not alone with our joys and sorrows. And then there is attachment, denial, narcissism, and of course, love, to name a few. We see ourselves and others reflected in Austen's work.

Social intelligence is one of the most highly developed human traits when compared with other animals. How did is evolve? Why is it so valuable? Wendy Jones explores the many facets of social intelligence and juxtaposes them with the Austen canon.

Members Reviews:

Conitive Behavioural Therapy is an excellent way of soothing depression and anxiety

Conitive Behavioural Therapy is an excellent way of soothing depression and anxiety. Going into this book, I was skeptical about the methods, as I am with any book. However, I found that the methods in this book were non like anything else. I can feel the changes that the words in this book make towards your body and if you are practicing the teachings from this book, I know it will sooth your anxiety and depression as it has for me. I recommend this book to anyone that is interested in this subject.

Um, what is going on here?

I've only read a few pages of this book so far and I'm not sure I can continue. The typographical and grammatical errors make it very difficult for me to take anything this book has to say seriously. If I do continue reading it I think I will have to fact check any statistics to make sure they are true. The errors just make it too difficult to believe anything written. I kind of want my money back.

Not what I was looking for

This book is more of a definition of CBT therapy and does not go very deep. I was hoping for something with a little more depth. Along with being disappointed about the book's contents it is literally riddled with typos. To the extent that I got to a point where finding the mistakes was the focus of my reading.

Publisher's Summary:

The original source for understanding the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment.

For more than 60 years, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) tool has been the most widely used instrument in the world for determining personality type, and for more than 25 years, Gifts Differing has been the preeminent source for understanding it.

Like a thumbprint, personality type provides an instant snapshot of a person's uniqueness. Drawing on concepts originated by Carl Jung, this book distinguishes four categories of personality styles and shows how these qualities determine the way you perceive the world and come to conclusions about what you've seen. It then explains what they mean for your success in school, at a job, in a career and in your personal relationships.

Before you even get to know what emotional intelligence looks like, it is important to understand what emotional intelligence is. There are various definitions of emotional intelligence (EQ or EI), like:

The ability to recognize your own emotions and those of others, for managing feelings well in our relationships, ourselves and for motivating ourselves.

It is the capacity to understand, use, identify and manage your own emotions in positive ways to empathize with others, communicate effectively, defuse conflict, relieve stress and overcome challenges.

The capacity to comprehend and recognize what others are going through emotionally.

There are two kinds of intelligenceemotional and intellectualwhich also express different parts of the brains activity.

Intellectual Intelligenceis based on the workings of the neocortex, which is the more recently evolved layer found at the top of the brain.

Emotional Intelligencefound in the more ancient sub cortex of the brain; its centers are lower in the brain. Emotional intelligence works hand in hand with these emotional centers and the intellectual centers.

Inside this book you will find:

Many people tend to have a rough time connecting with the current modern society we live in and this can be with others and also ourselves. Emotional intelligence plays a key role in being able to connect with others and adapt to the society.

Drawing on years of clinical experience and her familiarity with Freud, myth, and sacred writings, Cohen presents a program that results in a life of abundance, texture, and self-awareness that will teach you how to unlock the secrets of your personal dream language, explore and interpret the meaning of your dreams, and harness the power of the brain to uncover a life of greater richness and meaning.

Members Reviews:

So you think you can't dream?

Very insightful book on dreaming and filled with a lot of useful information, especially for people who cannot remember their dreams. I love the way Ms. Cohen doesn't attempt to interpret dreams but rather empowers the reader (dreamer) to look closely at what is happening in their own life that reflects the dreams.

Essential in every dreamer's library! If you could only have one dream book, this is the one to get!

I have begun remembering and learning about my dreams again due to this great book. Some fresh information, even though I've studied this topic for years.

Gives new meaning to how our unconscious helps and heals us. The very first dream I had with this book, came true about 95% in 24 hours. It was so remarkable and beyond normal possibilities, I am GOBSMACKED!

Just a brilliant wake up call for everyone to not dispose of the nightly gift our dream world delivers.

Easy to read, easy to apply and definitely worthwhile and essential in any dreamer's library!

Thinking fast and slow is an important book. The summary is very short yet adequate at the top level,. It needs to be expanded to summarize the chapters that really give insight into how the brain works.

"I think slowly, therefore I am!"

Great book summary; I recommend it for those wanting to understand Kahneman's upsetting the applecart of rationality. As a psychotherapist, I encounter fast thinking much more than the average person... While not strictly psychopathology, it can lead to very dark places both in mind and socially... While slow thinking is not the usual human default mode, it is well worth pursuing to achieve a more objective view of the world (both mentally and socially. I believe any comment on the current occupant of the White House is superfluous - if one doesn't know what is going on, one most likely will deny it anyway...

Title: Gaslighting: Narcissist's Blue Pill Propaganda

Author: J. B. Snow

Narrator: D. Gaunt

Format: Unabridged

Length: 30 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-02-17

Publisher: JB Snow Publishing

Genres: Science & Technology, Psychology & The Mind

Publisher's Summary:

If you have been around a narcissist for any length of time, you become keenly aware that he is doing things behind your back. His covert tactics are meant to beat you to the punch, and he is nearly always two steps ahead of you. Even when you get the small taste of a victory in the game against a narcissist, you realize all too quickly that he has regained the upper hand in order to win the final battle. He has the last laugh, and he will do whatever it takes to get the last word in.

The narcissist stops at nothing to demean, devalue, and destroy those around him. He wants to be unconditionally admired, or he alternately prefers to be feared and loathed. The worst thing that one can do to a narcissist is to ignore him, turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to his obnoxious antics. The narcissist is the spoilt child who feels that he is all-deserving of all the attention all the time. He does not care how he gets it, only that he ultimately gets it from everyone with whom he is in contact with.

The narcissist has propaganda and an agenda that he is always delivering on an overt or covert basis. He desires to have all the resources, and he wants to be the boss. He must be the hero of his own story. He has a following of flying monkeys whom he has ultimately brainwashed and convinced he is deserving of their loyalties. He will brainwash and convince you into blind compliance, or he will seek to destroy you so that you cannot convince anyone else that he is not deserving of such attention.

This audiobook discusses gaslighting as it pertains to the narcissist's "blue pill" propaganda. We will discuss what red pill and blue pill propaganda is, including how narcissists attack major progress in women's liberation. We will discuss gaslighting, as well as how the narcissist comes to leverage gaslighting against his victims in order to disorient and demean them.
