  • The Neuroscience and Neuropsychology of Gambling

    Gambling disorder is a behavioural addiction that represents the clinical extreme of a spectrum of gambling-related harm. What insights can neuroscientific and neuropsychological methods provide to help understand this condition and improve existing programs for treatment and prevention?

    This volume describes recent research using an array of contemporary tools including structural and functional brain imaging, and neurocognitive assessment. These analyses consider brain activity and psychological functioning in people with gambling disorder under resting conditions, due to tasks of reward processing and inhibitory control, and as a function of important sources of individual differences including depression and impulsivity. This volume also synthesizes contemporary research using animal models to examine decision-making under uncertainty from a behavioural neuroscience perspective, as well as synthesizing evidence from pharmacological treatments for gambling disorders. These findings complement research to understand substance use disorders and other emerging forms of behavioural addiction. This volume contains contributions from many of the leading research groups in this exciting field.

    The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of International Gambling Studies.

  • Games, Gambling, and Probability: An Introduction to Mathematics (Textbooks in Mathematics)

    Many experiments have shown the human brain generally has very serious problems dealing with probability and chance. A greater understanding of probability can help develop the intuition necessary to approach risk with the ability to make more informed (and better) decisions.

    The first four chapters offer the standard content for an introductory probability course, albeit presented in a much different way and order. The chapters afterward include some discussion of different games, different “ideas” that relate to the law of large numbers, and many more mathematical topics not typically seen in such a book. The use of games is meant to make the book (and course) feel like fun!

    Since many of the early games discussed are casino games, the study of those games, along with an understanding of the material in later chapters, should remind you that gambling is a bad idea; you should think of placing bets in a casino as paying for entertainment. Winning can, obviously, be a fun reward, but should not ever be expected.

    Changes for the Second Edition:

      • New chapter on Game Theory

      • New chapter on Sports Mathematics

      • The chapter on Blackjack, which was Chapter 4 in the first edition, appears later in the book.

      • Reorganization has been done to improve the flow of topics and learning.

      • New sections on Arkham Horror, Uno, and Scrabble have been added.

      • Even more exercises were added!

      The goal for this textbook is to complement the inquiry-based learning movement. In my mind, concepts and ideas will stick with the reader more when they are motivated in an interesting way. Here, we use questions about various games (not just casino games) to motivate the mathematics, and I would say that the writing emphasizes a “just-in-time” mathematics approach. Topics are presented mathematically as questions about the games themselves are posed.

      Dr. David G. Taylor is a professor of mathematics and an associate dean for academic affairs at Roanoke College in southwest Virginia. He attended Lebanon Valley College for his B.S. in computer science and mathematics and went to the University of Virginia for his Ph.D. While his graduate school focus was on studying infinite dimensional Lie algebras, he started studying the mathematics of various games in order to have a more undergraduate-friendly research agenda. Work done with two Roanoke College students, Heather Cook and Jonathan Marino, appears in this book! Currently he owns over 100 different board games and enjoys using probability in his decision-making while playing most of those games. In his spare time, he enjoys reading, cooking, coding, playing his board games, and spending time with his six-year-old dog Lilly.

    • Gambling 102: The Best Strategies For All Casino Games

      Plenty of gambling books explain how to play the games; that’s Gambling 101. Gambling 102 takes you to the next stage, playing in the best way with the least amount of effort. Quick chapters (some as brief as two or three pages) cut right to the heart of each of nearly two dozen games, providing you with, first, an assessment of the odds you face, and second, the basic strategies you need to lower them as much as possible.

      When should I raise in Three Card Poker? How will reduced juice affect my sports-betting results? And, of course, how do I pick the best blackjack game and video poker machine? Best of all, this revised and updated third edition contains three brand new chapters on what the Wizard calls “vulturing” slot machines that can be beaten when playing conditions present a player advantage.

      Gambling 102 is the product of years of mathematical analysis, computer modeling, and actual casino play. If you believe in luck or hunches, you probably need another book. But if you believe that mathematics guides you to the best ways to approach games of chance, then Gambling 102 is the book for you.

    • Darwin’s Sandcastle: Evolution’s Failure in the Light of Scripture and the Scientific Evidence

      Why are brilliant and logical scientists not reasonable on the question of the ultimate cause of the unity, diversity, and complexity of life on Earth? We wrongly think that an accurate view of life’s origins can be deduced by science and logic alone apart from faith and humble submission to God’s Word. Without the light of God’s Word, unbelievers have built up an edifice, a theory of life’s origins known as Darwinian Evolution, which they believe is an impregnable fortress. In our Darwin-dominated society, blind chance, mutation, and natural selection have received most of the glory for the unity, diversity, and complexity of life on Earth. It’s about time this philosophy is seen for what it is: a sandcastle on the beach, in the face of the rising tide.

    • Scientific Revolution: A Captivating Guide to the Emergence of Modern Science During the Early Modern Period and the Life of Galileo Galilei (Periods in History)

      If you want to discover the captivating history of the Scientific Revolution, then keep reading…

      Free History BONUS Inside!

      Two captivating manuscripts in one book:

      • The Scientific Revolution: A Captivating Guide to the Emergence of Modern Science During the Early Modern Period, Including Stories of Thinkers Such as Isaac Newton and René Descartes
      • Galileo Galilei: A Captivating Guide to an Italian Astronomer, Physicist, and Engineer and His Impact on the History of Science

      Ancient cultures have been looking up at the stars for thousands of years, wondering about their place in the universe. What were those glowing spots in the black cover of night? Just how far away was the moon? These and other questions hounded humanity through the millennia until, finally, relative economic stability allowed for a number of people to examine their world more closely. Slowly, knowledge and understanding accumulated generation by generation until the conditions were ideal enough for a revolution to occur in thinking, experimentation, worldview, and natural philosophy.

      It was the Scientific Revolution, the time period when Western theologians had more and better tools to measure and make sense of the things around them. With careful measurements, precise data collection, and an unwavering sense of curiosity, humankind stepped into the future. The truly magnificent feature of this time period, besides, of course, the scientific discoveries themselves, was the kinship between philosophers, scientists, and experimental hobbyists throughout Europe. Hundreds, if not thousands, of letters between great intellectuals such as Isaac Newton, Johannes Kepler, Robert Hooke, and Tycho Brahe have been preserved, demonstrating how these men (and a few women) worked in cooperation with one another in order to better their own research.

      Some of the topics covered in part 1 of this book include:

      • Science: A Definition and Brief Prehistory
      • The Early Western Sciences
      • Paracelsus
      • Nicolaus Copernicus

    • Websites for Business Managers: How to Confidently Work with IT Staff, Decode Geek-Speak, and Create the Website Your Business Needs

      How to get the website your business needs in today’s changed world

      The COVID19 pandemic wrought havoc. Technology, processes, and people, all got squashed. You’re a business leader and need to help your team and organization recover from that squashed state.

      This book will help you do that. The world has all the website experts it needs—what it doesn’t have is enough people like you: people who know how to put websites to work, so that businesses can progress.

      This book tells you ‘how to confidently work with IT staff, decode geek speak, and create the website your business needs’. With so many calls on your time, you feel you’re struggling to keep up with IT developments. You’re not the only one: don’t worry—just keep reading.

      Here Are Three Ways You’ll Benefit

      This short, easy-to-read book will help you make sense of important IT lingo and give you a head start in three important areas:

      • A business-centric understanding of websites—and how yours might be improved
      • Increased confidence about website projects—no more being bamboozled by IT geek-speak
      • A greater understanding of IT roles and specializations—deal with IT staff on a equal footing

      The internet era fuelled a dramatic shift in marketing over a relatively short time, leaving many businesses playing catch-up. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated that, with companies losing staff and customers in equal measure, alongwith experience and relationships, frequently developed over decades.

      I wrote Websites for Business Managers to give non-IT managers a leg-up in the post-COVID landscape—a landscape characterized by many rapid changes in technology and working patterns. Most of them would have happened this decade anyway, but the pandemic compressed the timescale and triggered mayhem

      It’s time to rebuild and for that rebuild to be led by business leaders—people like you, who know what’s needed, and just need the right people around them to make it happen.

      The Author and the Website Wisdom Collection

      Chris Davidson started working in IT before the term ‘information technology’ existed. He founded his consultancy, Active Presence, in 2002 and since then has helped thousands of people use technology to clarify their message and communicate it more effectively.

      Chris launched the Website Wisdom Collection in early 2023 with the publication of ‘Why Your Website Doesn’t Work’. This book is a complete website improvement toolkit for service-oriented businesses in the SME (small-to-medium sized enterprises) sector.

    • Sanatana Dharma: The Eternal Religion

      Sanatana Dharma, commonly called Hinduism, is not just beautiful temples, colorful festivals, gurus and unusual beliefs.

      It is, simply put, “The Way Things Are” on a cosmic scale. It is the facts of existence and transcendence.

      It illumines who we really are, what the world is, and how we should live our lives to go from mere belief to actual Realization of the Ultimate Reality we call God or Brahman.

      Swami Nirmalananda has edited for the modern reader a book originally printed nearly one hundred years ago in Varanasi, India, for use as a textbook by students of Benares Hindu University. Its original title was Sanatana Dharma, An Advanced Text Book of Hindu Religion and Ethics.

      In Sanatana Dharma: The Eternal Religion you will discover:

      • Basic Hindu Religious Ideas, including karma, rebirth, spiritual evolution; the worlds, visible and invisible, and the path of Freedom.
      • General Hindu Religious Customs and Rites, including mantras, worship, the stages of life, the castes (as they should be understood), and the purpose of life.
      • Ethical Teachings, including the foundations of ethics, right and wrong, the teachings of the ancient rishis, duty, virtue and vice, training and control of the mind, and human relationships.
      • The Wisdom of the Manu Smriti: Swami Nirmalananda has extracted and commented on passages from the Manu Smriti, an ancient scripture in India, examining those parts of the Manu Smriti that deal with the Supreme Dharma (Param Dharma) which embraces both Atmajnana, Knowledge of the Self, and Brahmajnana, Knowledge of Brahman the Absolute Being.

    • First Christmas: An alternative festive tale, of grief, love, loss and hope. The heartwarming and intriguing introduction to a brand new series by this popular author. (What…

      Christmas is a time of joy, love and togetherness… until it’s not. Ruth’s family are coming to terms with their first Christmas, and life, without her.

      As they gather at the long barrow, where Ruth’s ashes are interred, husband Graham and their three grown-up children, Annie, Kitty and Tom (plus Ruth’s beloved dog Mavis – and Annie’s slightly less beloved husband, Alex) try to get to grips with the new, delicate balance of their family.

      Their story is told by Ruth herself, who offers great insight into the dynamics between her husband, children and their partners, as well as her own marriage, and reveals that family life was not always as straightforward as it may have seemed.

      With bereaved strangers becoming friends, all coming together on Christmas Day, this is a heartwarming, uplifting and intriguing story, laying the ground for an exciting new series.

      **Note of caution: As already touched on, this is very much a story set around bereavement, grief and loss, so may not be suitable for some readers.**

For those women and men who have trouble with friends or family or annoying colleagues, the Crestwood Asylum offers a unique set of services. Here, you can make your enemies disappear.
