ISBN: 9781616146627 - the science of consequences: how they affect genes, change the brain, and impact our world (39 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Actions have consequences--and the ability to learn from them revolutionized life on earth. While it's easy enough to see that consequences are important (where would we be without positive reinforcement?), few have heard there's a science of consequences, with principles that affect us every day. Despite their variety, consequences appear to follow a common set of scientific principles and share some similar effects in the brain--such as the pleasure centers. Nature and nurture always work together, and scientists have demonstrated that learning from consequences predictably activates genes and restructures the brain. Applications are everywhere--at home, at work, and at school, and that's just for starters. Individually and societally, for example, self-control pits short-term against long-term consequences. Ten years in the making, this award-winning booktells a tale ranging from genetics to neurotransmitters, from emotion to language, from parenting to politics, taking an inclusive interdisciplinary approach to show how something so deceptively simple can help make sense of so much. Reyes, Rene C. (illustratore).…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This title presents a unique and fascinating introduction to a new field of science that is truly epic in scope. Children quickly learn that actions have consequences. This elementary lesson is repeated again and again throughout life as we adjust our behaviour according to the reactions they produce in the social and natural order. "The Science of Consequences" tells the story of how something so deceptively simple can help make sense of so much. Despite their variety, consequences appear to follow a common set of scientific principles and share some similar effects in the brain. Based on these principles, scientists have been able to create mathematical models of certain behaviors. And they have demonstrated that learning form consequences predictably activates genes and restructures the neural configuration of the brain - in humans as well as animals - thus demonstrating consequences are an integral part of the nature-and-nurture system. Based on common set of scientific principles, scientists have been able to create mathematical models of certain behaviors, This book tells the story of how something so deceptively simple can help make sense of so much.
