The contributors thematic treatmetn covers the evolution of group size, group composition and the emotional structure of social bonds, sexual dimorphism and the sexual division of labor, and the origins of human cultural traditions. br br

Book Description

Adsorption on Ordered Surfaces of Ionic Solids and Thin Films introduces to a new and topical field of surface science for which rather little experience is available at present. It reviews the recent results of the employed analytical methods comprising all modern surface techniques including scanning tunneling microscopy and various kinds of electron spectroscopies. The present status of this new, clearly defined field of surface science is nearly completely overviewed by contributions from most of the research groups active in this field. The book is meant as a basis for the expected rapid development in this area with applications in catalysis, thin-film and semiconductor technology, sensors, electrochemistry, controlled preparation of ultrathin epitaxial surfaces, and interfaces of insultors as well as future molecular electronics.

Book Description

With over 30 million copies sold since its original publication in 1960, Psycho-Cybernetics has been used by athletes, entrepreneurs, college students, and many others, to achieve life-changing goals--from losing weight to dramatically increasing their income--finding that success is not only possible but remarkably simple. Now updated to include present-day anecdotes and current personalities, The New Psycho-Cybernetics remains true to Dr. Maltz's promise:“If you can remember, worry, or tie your shoe, you can succeed with Psycho-Cybernetics!”

Psycho-Cybernetics.......2007-10-01

The author advises us to keep relaxed as a condition precedent for
success throughout life's daily challenges. Self-image controls or
limits personal accomplishments. The unconscious mind has a goal-servo
mechanism. Our imagination is like an ignition key which opens up the
mind to alternative possibilities. Periodically, we should test
self-imposed limits. The process is described iteratively:
o AIM o TRUST GOALS o RELAX o LEARN o DO/CALL TO ACTION

Goal attainment consists of goal striving, targeting and imagining.
Each of us must test the limits of this process in order to achieve
higher levels of satisfaction.

The author urges us to ignore past failures and strive for better things.
Desire is a powerful human emotion which should be cultivated.
The avoidance of failure triggers recalibration mechanisms which
test the boundaries of success. Each of us has an adversity quotient.
Therefore, we should stop piling up scar tissue from past hurts.

The work is very helpful in pointing toward success mechanisms rather
than dwelling on past failures or lost opportunities. This acquisition
would be helpful for the career planner in your household.

The New Psycho-Cybernetics.......2007-08-27

Dear Sirs,
The book New Psycho-Cybernetics was delivered to my home address completely ruined and ripped of. The post officer said that the package was already ruined when it came. I did not know to whom I could complain and who was responsible for the damage.

I am a scientist and I work in serious science and do not have much time for writing complaints. When I read the book,which you will send me properly packed, I will tell you the book's contribution to the humanity.

Your truly,

Prof. Tadeja Jere-Lazanski

P.s: I did not buy another The New Psycho-Cybernetics book.

timeless book.......2007-08-27

There is not a lot new to me in this book due to my previous readings over the years, however, this book was first written decades before many other books I read. Maltz has it all together in this book - and maybe other books I've read have gotten their ideas from him. Still a good read and very worthwhile if you want to understand more about yourself and others.

4 Daily principles .......2007-08-14

1. Forgive others completely everyday. 2. Forgive yourself completely everyday. 3. See yourself at your best. 4. Care and worry about yourself Everyday.

I find no words are enough to describe the real value of this book. I want to thank the ones behind this work for all the good they are doing to humanity. Please do not hesitate to buy it. It is a great guide to how to live in pure satisfaction, which means happily

Life changing book.......2007-09-28

This is a great book for anyone serious about changing their self image, and in the process changing their life.

self-help.......2007-09-13

Psycho-Cybernetics, I read almost 40 years ago. Not having touched it since has not dimmed the lasting and positive impression it had on me. Though I may not or do not remember details, I do recall it actually being one of the more important books I have read. It made sense to me and helped me when I was young. Now, while I try to help many struggling teen-agers, I am pondering if this book could help; is it still available? Then, I find to my pleasant surprise, it is; right there, on AMAZON.COM.

Best self-help book I've ever read...bar none.......2007-07-22

I've read stacks of self help books in my life. Most of the useful advice in each of the other self help books I've read have been padded versions of various truths in this book, which should be required reading for U.S. children entering Junior High. You could save yourself a lot of time and money by just getting this book. Thanks Max!!!

Put the wind in your sails and stay on course........2007-06-27

In a nutshell no one is perfect so accept yourself the way you are.
Forgive yourself and others. Have compassion. Accept yourself.
SEE YOURSELF AT YOUR BEST!
This CD discusses the importance of self image psychology, and how to stay on course to reach success and happiness. If you believe you can or can't do something you are probably right, but your servo mechanism will steer you in the direction of success. Having the courage to pursue your goals is the first step to achieving any success. Substitute old habits of failure with new habits of success by vividly imagining success with enthusiasm! You CAN push guilt and fear aside.

When we are off target we need to recognize that and make the propper corrections:
1. Frustrated? Remember assets. [Make a list of accomplishments.]
2. Aggression? Okay channel that energy! Use it towards your goals!
3. Insecurity? Make a decision.
4. Loneliness? Be kind and friendly. Show that you really care.
5. Uncertainty? Admit mistakes.
6. Resentment? Don't blame - visualize success!
7. Emptiness? Have goals.
When we are on target we will have shifted our focus to what really matters.

Train hard and have fun!

I love this book on CD and wish I would have been exposed to it 20 years earlier. I like the step by step process that is described that allows me to experience actually results. The only thing that could be improved on is the
delivery of the material. The narrator has a somewhat boring tone to his voice.

Great book... but only if you seek further insight.......2006-10-06

Although I like the book, nothing can compare to the original. Read Psycho-Cybernetics by Maltz or the revised version by Kennedy first. I read both versions and you can't go wrong with either one. Then if you're serious about implementing the ideas/methods of Psycho-Cybernetics in your life, read Psycho-Cybernetics 2000. This book has numerous examples of how people use the ideas and methods of Psycho-Cybernetics to overcome hardships/trials and tribulations in their lives. There are also helpful techniques in this book that are not mentioned in the other versions. Great book!

Good Book.......2006-06-09

I have read the original and I have read this one. The original is great. This one is better. It has concrete steps and explains how exactly to implement Maltz's revolutionary ideas of self-image enhancement. I got the feeling with the original that Maxwell Maltz was so turned on and excited by these new discoveries that he was eager to just "get it out there" and worry about the details later. The creators of Psycho-Cybernetics 2000, having had the opportunity to see Maltz's ideas applied in the field for 33 years, show us concrete examples of how actual people applied Psycho-Cybernetics to improve their actual experience. The example about the good-looking guy who couldn't get it up was a gem. I am not a flag-defender (I call people who are more interested in explaining why one methodology is better than another instead of just using whatever method to get results, flag-defenders) and many of the negative reviews seem to be written by these people. In PC 2000 you will find a much clearer language as to how to actually put Maltz's ideas into practice. That being said, the original is great for giving you the backgroud for the power of the self-image. In short, if I were to choose an action book, get PC 2000; if you want a theroy book with a few applicable ideas, get Maltz's original PC.

Useful, clear, and comprehensive.......2006-01-25

I'm not familiar with the original work done by Maltz in the sixties and found this to be a useful book. The writing is clear and the concepts are easily understood. I would have liked more updated information about the biology and study of the concepts but maybe that's for another book. If you're familiar with modern self-help there won't be anything shocking here but it's interesting to read about it in the original language so to speak. I was happily surprised by the comprehensiveness of the book: there are chapters on the basics, goal setting, changing your beliefs, and putting all the concepts together. Something you won't see in many other self-help books is a chapter on what to do when nothing is working. I liked the book and would recommend it as a good starting place.

Get the Original !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2005-04-07

This book is a complete spin-off of the original PSYCHO CYBERNETICS By Maxwell Maltz, which was a classic. Don't buy this book as it's just a get-rich-quick scheme by the author Bobbe Sommer as she adds nothing substantial to the original material, just her own boring stories. I have the original book by Maxwell Maltzand it is one of the best self help book I have ever read. Bobbe Sommer has just ruined the PSYCHO CYBERNETICS philosophy by adding her own crap in this book.

Simplistic, Repetitive and Tedious!.......2005-03-07

This book contains sound advice and concrete steps that, if followed properly, will help enhance and improve your self-image. According to the founder of Psycho-Cybernetics, Maltz Maxwell, the concept of self-image is irrefutably the most important aspect of our lives; once we have gained a positive self-image we will feel much better both mentally and physically. Thus, self-image is crucial to maintaining mental and physical health. Maxwell goes even farther holding that whether or not we succeed in our professional life depends to a great extent on how we view ourselves. Having a positive self-image makes it much easier to achieve our goals. One way to improve our self-image is to revise our thinking and to stop focusing on negative events. Also, the way we think about the aversive events in our life must change, it is imperative that we do not dwell on them. Instead of allowing these events to impair our self-image, we should act on them by actively finding adequate solutions. More importantly, the events to which we have no immediate solutions or over which we have no control should be completely ignored. Another important point made in this book is that we can control our emotional responses and this is an extremely powerful tool. Subsequently, we can decide how we want to feel or what we wish to think, according to Maltz.

The basic principle of Psycho-Cybernetics is actually quite simple: what you think in your conscious mind eventually becomes automatized in your subconscious mind. This means that if you decide that you believe in yourself and that you control your own life, these beliefs will soon be stored in your subconscious mind. An analogy is appropriate here: when learning to drive a car, initially you have to coordinate a number of different steps. As practice makes perfect, gradually these steps become automatized and you will no longer need to consciously monitor every step in order to drive. This is a crucial process because once your positive self-image becomes an inherent part of your subconscious mind then the process will be complete.

While this book is interesting and many techniques found in it are useful, there are shortcomings. First, it is common sense that positive self-esteem and self-image play a pivotal role in every individual's life. We all know that optimistic thinking promotes not only mental but also physical health. Moreover, techniques outlined in this book do not constitute anything new or revolutionary; people already know that they must challange their false beliefs and replace them with new ones. Like all other self-help books, even this one tends to be simplistic, repetitive and occasionally tedious.

Psychologists have long known that human behavior is dynamic, unpredictable and extremely complex. To explain why we think the way we do in one book is impossible. Most authors of self-help books tend to downplay the significance of highly important factors such as childhood in shaping an individual's personality. Even those vaguely familiar with psychology know that a cognitive theory (the one on which all self-help books are based) has serious drawbacks. Thus, in order to fully understand how self-esteem works we must take an integrated approach, the one involving the findings of cognitive, behaviorist, psycho-analytical and biological theories. Failure to interweave these theories will inevitably result in simplistic and flawed analyses. Simply telling someone to be optimistic will prove insufficient in the long run.

Popular psychology, I like to call it sensationalist, frequently promises fast results with no or little effort but almost always offers seriously flawed and superficial analyses. One final comment: whenever you come across a title of the book that sounds too good to be true, then skip it. Despite its oversimplified analysis, Psycho-Cybernetics does however provide an insight into the immense importance of self-esteem/self-image in every person's life. Please note that it is not my intent to discourage you from purchasing this book. On the contrary, it is always best to read it and decide for yourself.
