Despite the rapid advances in medical science, the majority of people who visit a doctor have medically unexplained symptoms (MUS), symptoms that remain a mystery despite extensive diagnostic studies. The most common MUS are back pain, abdominal pain, headache, fatigue, and dizziness. This book addresses the obstacles of managing people with MUS in our modern-day society from both a historical and contemporary perspective.

Anxiety is one of the most powerful emotions. It has a very strong effect on your mind and body. In some cases, it can take over your life, affecting your ability to eat, sleep, concentrate, travel, enjoy life, or even leave the house and go to work or school.

Don’t worry, there’s a way out!

It's commonly believed that intellect, memory, and problem-solving are decided at birth – the brain you start with is only capable of growing to a certain degree. The truth is, your brain adapts and evolves daily as life unfolds around you and it is exposed to new experiences and stimuli. When you read a book, your brain strengthens neural connections related to analytical thinking and language. The simple act of going for a walk requires the coordination of spatial awareness and movement, along with dozens of other processes.

Alzheimer’s disease, a haunting and harrowing ailment, is one of the world’s most common causes of death.

Patients lose the ability to work and live independently, to remember and recognize. There is still no proven way to treat Alzheimer’s because its causes remain unknown. Mind Thief is a comprehensive and engaging history of Alzheimer’s that demystifies efforts to understand the disease.

We have all experienced a 'gut reaction' or acted 'on a hunch' – we've used our intuition. Until recently, science didn't have a good explanation for how intuition works. In fact, some scientists dismissed it altogether as unproveable and 'woo woo'. Here, in the first book to explain the science behind intuition, Professor Joel Pearson, an expert in cognitive neuroscience and leader in human consciousness research, turns what we think we know about intuition on its head.

In January 2022, I ran a public survey about neurodivergent traits and co-occurring conditions. The response was amazing, particularly considering that the survey included over 200 questions. This book is not an in-depth statistical analysis of the results, a scientific/medical/academic report, or anything brainy like that; it’s just me, looking at the most obvious patterns that emerged from the survey and ranting about what they suggest. If that’s not what you are looking for, this is your chance to save yourself some money or buy something else instead!

Dr. Joseph Jebelli proves this surprising and fascinating point in The Brain at Rest, blending science and personal stories with practical tips about using the brain’s “default network.”
