Instant gratification junkies seeking self-awareness are bound to find the title of Ariel and Shya Kane's book extremely attractive. And seductive it is: who wouldn't like to discover enlightenment in a moment? The key, explain the Kanes, is getting to the moment: being fully present in the here and now without trying to manipulate or change what you see. According to the Kanes, "all problems are a projection towards the future of possible realities based on the past." Consequently, inhibitors to living life directly include the inability to let go of one's history--to forgive people and events from the past--as well as resistance to the circumstances of one's life, and repetitive, mechanical thoughts and behaviors. The essence of transformation is "a non-judgmental witnessing, viewing, or seeing of yourself and how you interact with your life," which stands in direct opposition to therapy's approach of working on one's history to bring about change. Here, awareness of a prejudice or pattern of behavior is--simply and immediately--enough to transform it.

Principles of awareness, self-realization, and enlightenment, of course, are nothing new, and the Kanes are careful to point this out. Some readers may wonder, then, why the Kanes refer to themselves as pioneers of a "revolutionary new technology," and whether Instantaneous Transformation(R) really requires a trademark. Nevertheless, Working on Yourself Doesn't Work is warm, anecdotal, and conversationally written, and includes general suggestions and pointers for the reader rather than rules to memorize. All in all, it is a gentle and potentially powerful invitation to enter a new and liberating state of mind. --Svenja Soldovieri.

Eadweard Muybridge, one of the great pioneer-innovators of the 19th century, is a familiar figure to students of art history, photography, and cinema. Best known for the photographs of horses and other animals in motion that he made in the 1870s and '80s, Muybridge was the first person to use photography to freeze rapid action for analysis and study. He devised a method for photographing episodes of behavior using a series of cameras, producing some of the most famous sequential photographs ever made. These pictures, the first successful photographs of rapidly moving subjects, revolutionized expectations of what photography could reveal about the natural world, and ultimately led to the invention of the motion picture in the mid-1890s.
Time Stands Still is the catalogue that accompanies a major exhibition celebrating Muybridge's fascinating work. Though the instantaneous photography movement stands as a crucial event in the progression of photography to motion pictures, this exhibition represents the first major organized treatment of the subject. Opening in spring 2003 at the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Center for Visual Arts at Stanford University and touring through 2004, it combines an examination of the artist's career in motion photography with a survey of early attempts to photograph moving subjects. Guest curator Phillip Prodger is the primary author of the catalogue, but the book also includes a valuable essay covering cinema's earliest experiments by Tom Gunning, an acknowledged expert on early film from the University of Chicago. The exhibition will display Muybridge's zoopraxiscope and other equipment, drawings, ephemera, and photographs made from the invention of photography in the 1830s to the end of Muybridge's career, which culminated with the publication of his encyclopedic work, Animal Locomotion, in 1887.

The photographs and objects are drawn largely from the collection of the Cantor Center and are supplemented with a selection of stop-action photographs from other private and public collections. Among those represented will be the work of Talbot, Rejlander, Maray, Eakins, Edison, the Lumiere Freres, and others..

INSTANTANEOUS PERSONAL MACNETISM COMBINING AN ABSOLUTELY NEW METHOD WITH THE BEST ESTABLISHED TEACHINGS OF THE PAST NOW THE STANDARD WORK OF THE INTERNATIONAL MAGNETISM CLUB 1935 By EDMUND SHAFTESBURY. THE TEN GREAT DEPARTMENTS OF THIS SYSTEM I DEPARTMENT OF MAGNETIC SOURCES II DEPARTMENT OF MENTAL MAGNITUDE III DEPARTMENT OF THE MAGNETIC EYE IV DEPARTMENT OF INSTANTANEOUS PERSONAL MAGNETISM V DEPARTMENT OF MAGNETIC HEALTH VI DEPARTMENT OF TENSION ENERGY VII DEPARTMENT OF REPOSE AND POWER VIII DEPARTMENT OF THE MAGNETIC VOICE IX DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED MAGNETISM X DEPARTMENT OF MAGNETIC HEALING THE ORIGINAL SYSTEM The following facts should he kept in mind by persons using other systems of instruction in the Cultivation of Personal Magnetism 1. The Shafteshury System was the first to be issued and appeared forty-five years ago when there were no other systems in existence. 2. To-day it is the Standard Method, and is so recognized everywhere. 3. It is the only System that is used by the International Magnetism Club, and that has been adopted in schools and various other educational institutions. 4. It is the only System that actually produces lasting results. 5. It is the only System that has helped a long list of successful men and women in all walks of life to acquire a magnetic personality with no failure where its students have been in earnest and ambitious to win the highest goal of earthly existence. 6. Attracted by its success, imitators many years ago began to issue cheap and loudly advertised courses of train ing, and approached as near as they dared to our methods but, for fear of becoming involved in lawsuits for infringe ment, they avoided all the essential value of our instruction, with the result that they were discredited and all went out of business. 7. Since then similar imitators are likely to appear, with the same inability to guide their students to the suc cessful acquisition of personal magnetism. 8. As personal magnetism is life itself, only the best in struction is desirable. Low priced competitive systems that accomplish nothing for their students are the highest priced in the end. Besides producing failure, they dis courage the buyers, drive them away from the study and thereby deprive them of the greatest blessings in life. 9. There is BUT ONE GENUINE METHOD it is the SHAFTESBURY METHOD long tried, thoroughly tested, and uniformly successful. GREAT MEN WHO HAVE OWED THEIR SUCCESS TO BOOKS PITT owed his success as a statesman to The Wealth of Nations, by Adam Smith. WATT was started on his way as an inventor by a book The Elements of Philosophy. MERCER the pioneer of the artificial silk trade, was stimulated to begin his experiments by The Chemical Pocket-Book. KELVIN was inspired as a scientist by reading The Theory of Light, by Fourier. LEVERHULME often said that his career was started by Self-Help written by Samuel Smiles. FARADAY was started by a book on chemistry. ORVILLE and WILBUR WRIGHT were led to invent the aeroplane by reading a book on gliding, by Lilienthal. WESTINGHOUSE and FORD were both started on their careers as inventors by reading magazine articles. ANDREW CARNEGIE owed his success to the reading of books, and built 1600 free libraries. THERE IS NO BETTER AID TO SUCCESS IN LIFE THAN GOOD BOOKS INTRODUCTION BY THE PUBLISHERS A PRESENTATION of the causes and progress that have become history in the unfolding of any great movement that has lent itself to the betterment of mankind, is always a source of encouragement and inspiration to a newer generation. To this end we will briefly review the important facts that have been interwoven in the development of the Magnetism Club....

On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on electric instantaneous or storage water heaters and immersion heaters in Finland face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying electric instantaneous or storage water heaters and immersion heaters to Finland? How important is Finland compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of electric instantaneous or storage water heaters and immersion heaters vary from one country of origin to another in Finland? On the supply side, Finland also exports electric instantaneous or storage water heaters and immersion heaters. Which countries receive the most exports from Finland? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers? This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for electric instantaneous or storage water heaters and immersion heaters in Finland. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for electric instantaneous or storage water heaters and immersion heaters for those countries serving Finland via exports, or supplying from Finland via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models. In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Finland fits into the world market for imported and exported electric instantaneous or storage water heaters and immersion heaters. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Finland in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Finland is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Finland compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes..
