    Understanding Suicide in the United States

    A Social, Biological, and Psychological Perspective

    'I highly recommend this book for its thorough analysis of suicide, from the devastating, pervasive suffering across ages and demographics to strategies for prevention and interventions. After presenting a biological perspective that goes beyond the usual links between depression and suicide, the book ends with evidence-based, hopeful recommendations for building personal, community, and societal resiliency for suicide prevention.'

    Mind in Nature

    A dialogue between contemporary neuroscience and John Dewey’s seminal philosophical work Experience and Nature, exploring how the bodily roots of human meaning, selfhood, and values provide wisdom for living.The intersection of cognitive science and pragmatist philosophy reveals the bodily basis of human meaning, thought, selfhood, and values. John Dewey's revolutionary account of pragmatist philosophy Experience and Nature (1925) explores humans as complex social animals, developing through ongoing engagement with their physical, interpersonal, and cultural environments. Drawing on recent research in biology and neuroscience that supports, extends, and, on occasion, reformulates some of Dewey's seminal insights, embodied cognition expert Mark L. Johnson and behavioral neuroscientist Jay Schulkin develop the most expansive intertwining of Dewey's philosophy with biology and neuroscience to date.The result is a positive, life-affirming understanding of how our evolutionary and individual development shapes who we are, what we can know, where our deepest values come from, and how we can cultivate wisdom for a meaningful and intelligent life.

    Biological Cognition

    This Element introduces a biological approach to cognition, which highlights the significance of allostatic regulation and the navigation of challenges and opportunities. It argues that cognition is best understood as a juggling act, which reflects numerous ongoing attempts to minimize disruptions while prioritizing the sources of information that are necessary to satisfy social and biological needs; and it provides a characterization of the architectural constraints, neurotransmitters, and affective states that shape visual perception, as well as the regulatory capacities that sustain flexible patterns of thought and behavior.

    The Corporation

    Its History and Future

    '[This book is an] incisive history of corporations coupled with a prognosis of their future. According to authors Sarokin and Schulkin, corporations tend to be viewed contradictorily, both as catalysts of economic growth and ingenuity as well as corrupt drivers of inequality and wielders of undemocratic political influence. In order to properly understand the vices and virtues of corporations, the authors synoptically but rigorously reconstruct their long history, which dates back, at least in embryonic form, to the Roman Empire. However, the corporation as we now understand it, a "group of individuals acting as a single entity, and recognized as such under the law," begins to emerge in 16th- and 17th-century Europe in the form of massive trading companies like the Dutch West India Company. Everything changed, though, when the United States was founded since its unique constitutional structure and entrepreneurial energy contributed to the explosive proliferation of the corporation through the 19th and 20th centuries. The authors deftly chronicle not only the evolving character of the American corporation, but also the nation's shifting sentiments regarding it, including a thoughtful account of the regulatory backlash against the corporation during the Progressive Era and the tumultuous 1970s. Sarokin and Schulkin also furnish a convincing vision of the future corporation's challenges, including globalization and the profound transformations wrought by the unstoppable march of technological innovation. Their prose is unfailingly lucid, and they avoid any peremptory dogmatism, carefully assessing the corporation's pros and cons. […] This is a timely contribution to an important issue, as philosophically attentive to the big picture as it is to the granular details of law and policy. [It is a] remarkably concise, perspicacious introduction to the corporation's past and future."Kirkus ReviewsSeptember 2020

  12. Preoperative Events

    Preoperative Events

    Their Effects on Behavior Following Brain Damage

    "Schulkin's book is the first to concentrate exclusively on the importance of preoperative events and, in particular, the possibility that preoperative events might "protect" the organism against the effects of brain damage. As such it is a welcome addition to the literature....This is an interesting and informative book....the book achieves its objective of stimulating further thought..."—Neuropsychologia "Although an edited text, it is well integrated and concludes with three excellent, albeit brief, summary and synthesis chapters....this text is highly recommended."—Contemporary Psychology
