Wat drijft een seriemoordenaar? Konden de Holocaust en andere genocides voorkomen worden? Wat gaat er door het hoofd van een martelende soldaat? En vooral: hoe kunnen mensen dergelijke wreedheden begaan? Het antwoord is even eenvoudig als onthutsend: wreedheid is inherent aan ons mens-zijn. De hoofdverantwoordelijke die ons doen en laten bepaalt, is ons eigen brein. Als we de aard van menselijk sadisme willen begrijpen, kunnen we dan ook niet om de inzichten van neurowetenschappers heen. Kathleen Taylor analyseert de manier waarop gedragspatronen gevormd en bekrachtigd worden en komt zo tot een aantal nieuwe en verbluffende vaststellingen.

Working with Bengali mentors, especially his close friend A. B. Ghose, Sir John Woodroffe became the pseudonymous orientalist Arthur Avalon, famous for his tantric studies at the beginning of the twentieth century. Best known for The Serpent Power, the book which introduced 'Kundalini Yoga' to the western world, Avalon turned the image of Tantra around, from that of a despised magical and orgiastic cult into a refined philosophy which greatly enhanced the prestige of Hindu thought to later generations of westerners.This biographical study is in two parts. The first focuses on

Indologists --- Indian studies specialists --- Asianists --- Tamilologists --- Woodroffe, John George, --- Avalon, Arthur, --- Bengal (India) --- Bengal --- Fort William (India) --- Presidency of Fort William (India) --- Bengale (India) --- Baṅgāla (India) --- Eastern Bengal and Assam (India) --- West Bengal (India) --- East Bengal (Pakistan)

Throughout history, humans have attempted to influence and control the thoughts of others. Since the word 'brainwashing' was coined in the aftermath of the Korean War, it has become part of the popular culture and been exploited to create sensational headlines. It has also been the subject of learned discussion from many disciplines: including history, sociology, psychology, and psychotherapy. But until now, a crucial part of the debate has been missing: that of anyserious reference to the science of the human brain. Descriptions of how opinions can be changed, whether by persuasion, deceit, or force, have been almost entirely psychological. In Brainwashing, Kathleen Taylor brought the worlds of neuroscience and social psychology together for the first time. In elegant and accessible prose, and with abundant use of anecdotes and case-studies, she examines the ethical problems involved in carrying out the required experiments on humans, the limitations of animal models, and the frightening implications of such research. She also explores the history of thought-control and shows how it persists all around us, from marketingand television, to politics and education. This edition includes a new preface from the author reflecting on the uses of brainwashing today, including by the Islamic State. Oxford Landmark Science books are 'must-read' classics of modern science writing which have crystallized big ideas, and shaped the way we think.

In a world full of science, the balance of power between sciences is changing. Advances in physics, chemistry, and other natural sciences have given us extraordinary control over our world. Now the younger sciences of brain and mind are applying the scientific method not only to our environments, but to us. In recent years funding and effort poured into brain research. We are entering the era of the brain supremacy.What will the new science mean for us, as individuals, consumers, parents and citizens? Should we be excited, or alarmed, by the remarkable promises we read about in the media - pro
