The Two Sides of Being Single: A Biblical Perspective is a book that is dedicated to single Christians who are either desiring to maintain a single Christian life or who are seeking God to bless them with a husband or a wife. The book is divided into two parts. The first part of the book focuses on maintaining a single Christian life. This is not an easy task, but it can be accomplished by a Christian placing his or her trust in God. With God's help, a Christian can draw closer to God so that Satan won't fan the flames of a single Christian's sexual desires, causing him or her to fall prey to sexual immorality. The second part of the book discusses those who are single and waiting for God to bless them with a husband or a wife. God has a mate for those who are willing to wait on him patiently. The book concludes with a prayer for those who want to accept Christ as Lord and Savior.

Anatomically, the central nervous system looks remarkably symmetrical--from the relatively simple structures of the spinal cord to the extensively convoluted folds of the cerebral hemispheres. At the functional level, however, there are striking differences between the left and right hemispheres. Although popular writings attribute language abilities to the left hemisphere and spatial abilities to the right, differences in hemispheric function appear to be more subtle. According to Ivry and Robertson, asymmetries over a wide range of perceptual tasks reflect a difference in strength rather than kind, with both hemispheres contributing to the performance of complex tasks, whether linguistic or spatial. After an historical introduction, the authors offer a cognitive neuroscience perspective on hemispheric specialization in perception. They propose that the two hemispheres differ in how they filter task-relevant sensory information. Building on the idea that the hemispheres construct asymmetric representations, the hypothesis provides a novel account of many laterality effects. A notable feature of the authors' work is their attempt to incorporate hemispheric specialization in vision, audition, music, and language within a common framework. In support of their theory, they review studies involving both healthy and neurologically impaired individuals. They also provide a series of simulations to demonstrate the underlying computational principles of their theory. Their work thus describes both the cognitive and neurological architecture of hemispheric asymmetries in perception.

Artificial life refers to techniques that seek to re-create living organisms and creatures by computer, including simulation of behavior processes resulting in consciousness and emotions. This is the first book to demonstrate artificial life in virtual reality where up to now little has been done to reproduce biological processes. Includes 16 pages of color photos and images.

There are two sides to every story. A little girl finds a strange beast in the woods and takes it home as a pet. She feeds it, shows it off to her friends and gives it a hat. But that night it escapes. Then the beast tells the story of being kidnapped by the girl, who forcefed it squirrel food, scared it with a group of beasts and wrapped it in wool. Can the two beasts resolve their differences? An eye-opening story that makes you look at things from a different perspective. 'Roberton's premise is as sublime as it is simple, with a subtle message. [...] Totally delightful.' - Kirkus Reviews

Parenting is a complex, ever-changing challenge, whether you're dealing with sibling rivalry, arguments, or the need to limit your child's exposure to the many damaging elements of our culture. Fortunately, all parenting decisions can be divided into two broad categories: challenge and support. In The Two Sides of Parenting, counselor Jim Wunderle explains how challenge and support apply to raising children. When exercising support, a child receives something-whether it's a kind word, an activity, or another factor that cultivates a warm relationship. Challenge parenting requires something from your child, be it obedience, accountability, or accepting limitations. Challenge involves confrontation, but it is vital for setting boundaries. Individually, neither challenge nor support provides a comprehensive parenting strategy. Both are needed to raise a child in a warm environment with firm, well-established rules and respect. The model of giving and guiding mirrors the teaching methods Christ used with his disciples. Here, Wunderle presents five methods of support and five challenges common to parenting, each supported by biblical passages and his own experience as a counselor and parent. Based on Wunderle's groundbreaking Parenting Boot Camp Seminar, The Two Sides of Parenting offers an opportunity to transform your relationship with your child.
