Stress can be reduced with an enormously powerful force--the imagination. This voice-guided program will guide you to use the power of your imagination to stop stress before it starts. In this audio program, you’ll learn about the physical and mental signs of stress and identify your own stress triggers. The CD includes several visualization exercises you can do whenever you feel overwhelmed to help you stay relaxed, productive, and in control. Based on the exercises and techniques in The Relaxation and Stress Reduction Workbook, the go-to guide for stress reduction and total rela

In light of recent evidence on the relationship of ozone to mortality and questions about its implications for benefit analysis, the Environmental Protection Agency asked the National Research Council to establish a committee of experts to evaluate independently the contributions of recent epidemiologic studies to understanding the size of the ozone-mortality effect in the context of benefit analysis. The committee was also asked to assess methods for estimating how much a reduction in short-term exposure to ozone would reduce premature deaths, to assess methods for estimating associated incre

Written by a noted authority in the subject area, this book is a comprehensive study of the theory and practical application of noise reduction to numerous fields. It may be used as a reference by scientists and engineers or in a senior-undergraduate or graduate-level course. The first six chapters deal with the basic mechanisms of sound absorption by which acoustic energy is converted into heat in viscous and thermal boundaries in a sound field. The second part covers duct attenuators with a discussion of how their performance is described and measured. The main part of each chapter is planne

One of the central problems in the philosophy of psychology is an updated version of the old mind-body problem: how levels of theories in the behavioral and brain sciences relate to one another. Many contemporary philosophers of mind believe that cognitive-psychological theories are not reducible to neurological theories. However, this antireductionism has not spawned a revival of dualism. Instead, most nonreductive physicalists prefer the idea of a one-way dependence of the mental on the physical. In Psychoneural Reduction, John Bickle presents a new type of reductionism, one that is stron

Encompassing theory and field experience, this book covers all the main subject areas in earthquake risk reduction, ranging from geology, seismology, structural and soil dynamics to hazard and risk assessment, risk management and planning, engineering and the architectural design of new structures and equipment. Earthquake Risk Reduction outlines individual national weaknesses that contribute to earthquake risk to people and property; calculates the seismic response of soils and structures, using the structural continuum ’Subsoil - Substructure - Superstructure - Non-stru
