The Beauty of Your Face by Sahar Mustafah Pdf

The Face by Dan McNeill Pdf

From the Sphinx to Mona Lisa, from strangers in a crowd to the people we love, the face beguiles us. It is our social signature and provides a constant flow of richly complex information. We rely on its signals, yet they form a language we may not even consciously note. In 'The Face', Daniel McNeill unravels these mysteries. He examines the face from many perspectives - physiological, social, psychological, evolutionary and artistic - and creates a portrait that is as fascinating as it is illuminating. Drawing on these disciplines, he explores the four great realms of the face - its anatomy, its singularity, its ability to communicate and its beauty.

If I Had Your Face by Frances Cha Pdf

A riveting debut novel set in contemporary Seoul, Korea, about four young women making their way in a world defined by impossible standards of beauty, after-hours room salons catering to wealthy men, ruthless social hierarchies, and K-pop mania “Powerful and provocative . . . a novel about female strength, spirit, resilience—and the solace that friendship can sometimes provide.”—The Washington Post NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Time • NPR • Esquire • Bustle • BBC • New York Post • InStyle Kyuri is an achingly beautiful woman with a hard-won job at a Seoul “room salon,” an exclusive underground bar where she entertains businessmen while they drink. Though she prides herself on her cold, clear-eyed approach to life, an impulsive mistake threatens her livelihood. Kyuri’s roommate, Miho, is a talented artist who grew up in an orphanage but won a scholarship to study art in New York. Returning to Korea after college, she finds herself in a precarious relationship with the heir to one of the country’s biggest conglomerates. Down the hall in their building lives Ara, a hairstylist whose two preoccupations sustain her: an obsession with a boy-band pop star, and a best friend who is saving up for the extreme plastic surgery that she hopes will change her life. And Wonna, one floor below, is a newlywed trying to have a baby that she and her husband have no idea how they can afford to raise in Korea’s brutal economy. Together, their stories tell a gripping tale at once unfamiliar and unmistakably universal, in which their tentative friendships may turn out to be the thing that ultimately saves them.

Your Face Never Lies by Michio Kushi Pdf

A quick glance in the mirror can tell you much about your health. The shape of your face alone reveals a great deal.

Your Face Never Lies will lead you beyond the narrow limits of western medicine. Much more than a tool for helping those who are ill, the ancient skill described by macrobiotics expert Michio Kushi, will help you to better understand yourself, your life, and your relationship with nature.

What the Face Reveals by Paul Ekman,Erika L. Rosenberg Pdf

While we have known for centuries that facial expressions can reveal what people are thinking and feeling, it is only recently that the face has been studied scientifically for what it can tell us about internal states, social behavior, and psychopathology. Today's widely available, sophisticated measuring systems have allowed us to conduct a wealth of new research on facial behavior that has contributed enormously to our understanding of the relationship between facial expression and human psychology. The chapters in this volume present the state-of-the-art in this research. They address key topics and questions, such as the dynamic and morphological differences between voluntary and involuntary expressions, the relationship between what people show on their faces and what they say they feel, whether it is possible to use facial behavior to draw distinctions among psychiatric populations, and how far research on automating facial measurement has progressed. The book also includes follow-up commentary on all of the original research presented and a concluding integration and critique of all the contributions made by Paul Ekman. As an essential reference for all those working in the area of facial analysis and expression, this volume will be indispensable for a wide range of professionals and students in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, and behavioral medicine.

Some pieces that appeared in previous editions have been preserved, while others were omitted to make room for new work. In the process of this revision, the editors came up with a new structure to the book, organized around substantive topic areas. There are seven sections. Section 1 on Animal FACS is one of the most compelling areas of new work on FACS. As of early 2018, FACS has been applied to 6 species: chimps, orangs, macaques, gibbons, dogs, horses, and cats automated measurement. Section 2 on Automated FACS Measurement is one area that has seen enormous growth in the research over the past two decades since the publication of the first edition of this book. Section 3 on Basic Affective Science contains four classic articles that used FACS to study spontaneous behavior. Section 4 contains four chapters on infant development. Section 5 on Pain contains a reprint one classic study by Craig and three new papers that use FACS to understand pain displays in a variety of contexts and populations. Section 6 on Psychopathology contains studies that use FACS to try to uncover and describe how observable facial behavior might distinguish among diagnostic groups. Finally, Section 7 on Social & Health Psychology contains articles that use FACS to study psychological process involved physical and psychological health, social behavior, and emotion"--

The Face on the Milk Carton by Caroline B. Cooney Pdf

In the vein of psychological thrillers like We Were Liars and One of Us Is Lying, bestselling and Edgar Award nominated author Caroline Cooney’s JANIE series seamlessly blends mystery and suspense with issues of family, friendship and love to offer an emotionally evocative thrill ride of a read. No one ever really paid close attention to the faces of the missing children on the milk cartons. But as Janie Johnson glanced at the face of the ordinary little girl with her hair in tight pigtails, wearing a dress with a narrow white collar—a three-year-old who had been kidnapped twelve years before from a shopping mall in New Jersey—she felt overcome with shock. She recognized that little girl—it was she. How could it possibly be true? Janie can't believe that her loving parents kidnapped her, but as she begins to piece things together, nothing makes sense. Something is terribly wrong. Are Mr. and Mrs. Johnson really her parents? And if not, who is Janie Johnson, and what really happened?

More Precisely by Eric Steinhart Pdf

More Precisely provides a rigorous and engaging introduction to the mathematics necessary to do philosophy. It is impossible to fully understand much of the most important work in contemporary philosophy without a basic grasp of set theory, functions, probability, modality and infinity. Until now, this knowledge was difficult to acquire. Professors had to provide custom handouts to their classes, while students struggled through math texts searching for insight. More Precisely fills this key gap. Eric Steinhart provides lucid explanations of the basic mathematical concepts and sets out most commonly used notational conventions. Furthermore, he demonstrates how mathematics applies to many fundamental issues in branches of philosophy such as metaphysics, philosophy of language, epistemology, and ethics.

What We Need to Face in American Education by Gary Kroesch,Bill Madigan Pdf

For the fi rst time in human history, we are living in an age where the youth of our nation know more about societys cutting-edge tools than the adults charged with passing societys technical and cultural knowledge on to them. Most of our young people have far more facility with computer and telecommunications technology than our teaching corps and, generally, that gap only widens as students travel from elementary school all the way to university and beyond. Its a brave new and, often, dangerous world that todays youth must learn to navigate. Now, more than ever, they need educators to step up and teach them how to be critical thinkers able to discriminate between the true and the merely seductive, to see beyond the glossy veneer on harmful websites harmful ideas and, sadly, harmful people in both the real and cyber worlds. We need to spend a little less time teaching students how to take standardized tests and a lot more time developing their critical faculties, so they will be able to solve lifes problems, profi t from challenging situations, and understand the increasingly complex world they must ken at an earlier and earlier age.
