A fascinating history of how we recognize faces—or fail to recognize them. In Do I Know You? Sharrona Pearl explores the fascinating category of face recognition and the "the face recognition spectrum," which ranges from face blindness at one end to super recognition at the other. Super recognizers can recall faces from only the briefest exposure, while face blind people lack the capacity to recognize faces at all, including those of their closest loved ones. Informed by archival research, the latest neurological studies, and testimonials from people at both ends of the spectrum, Pearl tells a nuanced story of how we relate to each other through our faces. The category of face recognition is relatively new despite the importance of faces in how we build relationships and understand our own humanity. Pearl shows how this most tacit of knowledge came to enter the scientific and diagnostic field despite difficulties with identifying it. She offers a grounded framework for how we evaluate others and draw conclusions about them, with significant implications for race, gender, class, and disability. Pearl explores the shifting ideas around the face-recognition spectrum, explaining the effects of these diagnoses on real people alongside implications for how facial recognition is studied and understood. Face blindness is framed as a disability, while super recognition is framed as a superpower with no meaningful disadvantages. This superhero rhetoric is tied to the use of super recognizers in criminal detection, prosecution, and other forms of state surveillance. Do I Know You? demonstrates a humanistic approach to the study of the brain, one that offers an entirely new method for examining this fundamental aspect of human interaction. The combination of personal narratives, scientific and medical research, and high-profile advocates like Oliver Sacks helped to establish face recognition as a category and a spectrum in both diagnostic and experiential realms. Building on an interdisciplinary foundation that includes the history of medicine, science, and technology, disability studies, media and communication, artificial intelligence ethics, and the health humanities, Pearl challenges the binary nature of spectrum thinking in general and provides a fascinating case study in the treatment of this new scientific category.

This tool was born out of desperation. The funeral handbooks I bought in school and those available in most bookstores, seem ancient and culturally distant from life in the 21st Century. This book was first an iTunes App for the iPhone. It was so well received that I decided to make it available in book form. The book form will include three funeral sermons previously published on iTunes as Vital Thoughts on Grief. This tool will allow you plan a funeral with a family or insure you that you are always ready to perform a funeral. If you have illustrations, or ideas to improve this tool please email me @ [email protected] Published by GrievingTeensPublishing.com

Hero High was one of the most popular and sought after books in the history of Mutants & Masterminds--and now it's returned for the game's Third Edition! The book examines the genre of teen heroes (and villains), provides players and GMs with all the information they need to create characters and run games featuring teenaged heroes, and includes pages and pages of plot ideas and story hooks. Finally, Hero High includes information on the Claremont Academy, a private school for the "gifted," and introduces a team of eight playable heroes--and their evil counterparts from a rival school known as the Elysian Academy. This Revised Edition updates and expands the original, making Hero High a must for any Third Edition Mutants & Masterminds campaign.
