Paperback. Etat : New. Stories can inspire love, anger, fear and nostalgia - but what is going on in our brains when this happens? And how do our minds conjure up worlds and characters from the words we read on the page? Rapid advances in the scientific understanding of the brain have cast new light on how we engage with literature. This book - collaboratively written by an experienced neuroscientist and literary critic and writer - explores these new insights. Key concepts in neuroscience are first introduced for non-specialists and a range of literary texts by writers such as Ian McEwan, Jim Crace and E.L. Doctorow are read in light of the latest scientific thought on the workings of the mind and brain. Brain, Mind, and the Narrative Imagination demonstrates how literature taps into deep structures of memory and emotion that lie at the heart of our humanity. It will be of interest to readers of all sorts and students from both the humanities and the sciences.…

Hardcover. Etat : good. First Edition. First? Printing. 20 cm, 176 pages, former owner's information in ink on front endpaper (military chaplain), sticker inside board, a few stray pencil marks. Chaplain Taggart's service with the 19th Bombardment Group in the Pacific, in Java, and in Australia. Derived from the introductory material: I write about my experiences as a chaplain with the United States Army Air Forces in the Southwest Pacific. I want to be just as honest with my readers as I was with the publishers, I have merely related to Christopher Cross those incidents, observations, and experiences that seem important to me, Mr. Cross has organized the material into this book. Often when I was privileged to help an American soldier I thought how happy his folks would be to know that their boy s spiritual needs are also satisfied even though he is thousands of miles from home. It is my hope that by relating my experiences Americans everywhere will gain new comfort from the knowledge that with their boys is a chaplain within call to a service to them in prayer to give comfort to the sick and troubled and to give burial whenever possible according to the dictates of their own religion. I have had to rely on letters, my memory, and to a large extent on the co-operation of the men of the I9th Bombardment Group who returned, and the relatives of those who did not in completing this work. Authorized as 19th Observation Group on 18 Oct 1927. Redesignated 19th Bombardment Group in 1929. Activated on 24 Jun 1932. Redesignated 19th Bombardment Group (Heavy) in 1939. Equipped first with B-10's, later with B-18's, and still later (in 1941) with B-17's. Moved to the Philippine Islands, Sep-Nov 1941. On 7 Dec 1941 (8 Dec in the Philippines), when the Japanese first attacked Clark Field, the group suffered numerous casualties and lost many planes. The 93rd squadron, however, was on maneuvers at Del Monte and therefore missed the attack. Supplies and headquarters were hastily moved from Clark Field to comparatively safe points nearby, and planes that had not been too heavily damaged were given emergency repairs and dispatched to Del Monte. There the 19th began reconnaissance and bombardment operations against Japanese shipping and landing parties. Sustaining heavy losses, the group ceased these actions after about two weeks, and the ground personnel joined infantry units in fighting the invaders. Some of the men were evacuated, some escaped, but most were either killed or captured. Meanwhile, late in Dec 1941 the air echelon moved to Australia to transport medical and other supplies to the Philippine Islands and evacuate personnel from that area. The men in Australia moved to Java at the end of 1941 and, flying B-17, LB-30, and B-24 aircraft, earned a DUC for the group by attacking enemy aircraft, ground installations, warships, and transports during the Japanese drive through the Philippines and Netherlands Indies early in 1942. The men returned to Australia from Java early in Mar 1942, and later that month the group evacuated Gen Douglas MacArthur, his family, and key members of his staff from the Philippines to Australia. After a brief rest the group resumed combat operations, participating in the Battle of the Coral Sea and raiding Japanese transportation, communications, and ground forces during the enemy's invasion of Papua. From 7 to 12 Aug 1942 the 19th bombed airdromes, ground installations, and shipping near Rabaul, New Britain, being awarded another DUC for these missions. …
