In recent decades, worldwide, a number of disturbing miscarriages of justice have occurred. Strikingly, in some instances, jury members as well as professional judges misjudged the available evidence. Why, and how does this happen? Legal psychology is about the psychological interpretation of legal evidence, particularly criminal evidence. This book contains a general introduction to psychology as a science. Three psychological domains are discussed, namely perception, memory, and decision ma...

In new resources for individual psychological diagnosis wordt een onderzoekstechniek beschreven op basis van het werk van Gé Calis.

Tevens bouwt de benadering voort op het werk van beeldend kunstenaar Frans Coppelmans.

Dit onderzoeksinstrument richt zich zowel op de cognitie als op de emotie. Individuele gegevens worden verzameld door een subtiel samenspel tussen het onbewuste en bewuste in de mens.

Often, books about signal analysis and processing are either highly theoretical with high-level mathematics or contain oversimplified explanations which cannot answer the questions of how and why adequately. In this book, the writer attempts to explain the theory from a practical viewpoint, using a common-sense way of thinking. The theoretical principles described are mainly applied to speech sounds but the complex nature of these sounds makes this approach suitable to audio signals in general.

The book contains mathematical formulas, but sparsely used, serving as conclusions of the preceding explanations in ‘normal’ language. The more extended mathematical manipulations can be found in the appendice...

The human, the technical system, and the environment are the three elements for safety or three axes for the safety coordinate system. They have three mutual interactions. These form the six fundamental aspects for safety assessment system, represented by the Safety Cube. The Safety Cube is a theory, a method, and a game-changer for engineering safer products and systems.

Indian poetry of the classical style, kāvya, has been long ignored by western Indologists. Nowadays opinion slowly tends to change in favour of this rather extreme poetry. Bhāravi's Kirātārjunīya, the poem treated in this volume is part of the tradition of epic poems or mahākāvyas. Six are recognized. The Kirātārjunīya marks the beginning of a new style of Indian poetry and represents one of the best written in this tradition. The plot is taken from the Mahābhārata.

If the idea of non-duality is correct, then experiencing life with a non-dual mode of perception would logically be the way to resolve about any issue.

But is it correct? You better be sure, because it takes a little time and investment to wake up from the ego illusion that prevents you from experiencing non-duality.

The only problem is that non-duality can’t be proven. It will always remain a leap of faith – an intuitive decision.

However, there are various logical arguments and scientif...

With three of the pentomino letters you can make FUN. With all twelve pentominoes you can make a lot more fun. This exceptional book abounds with fanciful congruences, enclosures, tilings and a host of combinatorial squares: ConMagic, EyeMagic, GeoMagic and SymMagic. Many of the results are far from trivial, obtained by extensive research and programming. Their complete uselessness and beauty compete fiercely with each other. Almost every page bears witness to that by colourful figures. You a...

The composition of our brain of a human part of consciousness and analytical thinking, and a primal brain where the primary life functions are regulated, is the cause of many misunderstandings in our thinking and opinions over all kinds of things.

For example, we consider cultural matters like painting and music to be high-quality activities, whereas they are based only on physical-chemical processes that are not properly understood by the human part of our brain and therefore highly assesse...
