This ultra rare book delves into the fascinating realm of ancient mythologies and their roots in pre-historic human civilization. The work explores whether the recorded history of man, spanning a few thousand years, truly encapsulates the entirety of human existence or if ancient mythological eras, chronicled in the traditions of Chaldea and China, hold fragmented memories of civilizations long lost, akin to Plato's Atlantis. Gould questions the brief time span—six to eight thousand years—traditionally assigned to human civilization by Biblical interpreters, suggesting that this period scarcely accommodates the complexity and development of early human societies. The book meticulously examines how myths and legends of divine progenitors, demigods, and monstrous creatures were disseminated globally, shaped by the diverse environmental and cultural contexts of different peoples. **Detailed Overview:** **1. Human Civilization Beyond Recorded History:** Gould begins by challenging the conventional timeline of human history. He proposes that the brief span of written history might only be a fragment of man's intelligent existence. By referencing the extensive mythical eras of Chaldea and China, Gould hints at the possibility of pre-historic civilizations that have perished due to catastrophic events, leaving behind only shadowy mementos preserved through tradition. **2. Questioning the Biblical Timeline:** Gould critically examines the six to eight thousand years commonly accepted by Biblical interpreters for the creation of the world and human civilization. He argues that this limited timeframe barely suffices to account for the documented evidence of ancient civilizations' development, the divergence of human stocks, and the obliteration of connecting branches. **3. Universal Spread of Mythologies:** The author observes that myths of divine progenitors, heroes, and monstrous creatures permeate all corners of the world. These stories, carried with the fidelity akin to the sacred Ark of the Israelites, adapt according to the local genius, superstitions, and environmental conditions. Gould highlights how different settings, from open plains to dense forests, mold these myths, reflecting the inhabitants' lifestyles and fears. **4. Influence of Environment on Mythology:** Gould explores how environmental conditions shape cultural and mythological expressions. For instance, the inhabitants of semi-tropical plains, enjoying a genial sun and open spaces, develop a buoyant and open temperament, influencing their mythologies to be more graceful. In contrast, those living in dense, gloomy forests filled with lurking dangers foster myths filled with dread and vigilance. **5. Divergence of Aryan Descendants:** Focusing on the descendants of Aryan ancestors—the Greeks, Celts, and Vikings—Gould illustrates how environmental and social conditions led to distinct cultural developments. The Greeks, with their favorable climate and geography, cultivated a mythology rich in benign gods and heroic demigods. The Celts, influenced by their forested habitats, developed a more gloomy and sanguinary Druidic religion. The Vikings, shaped by their harsh seaboard environment, created a mythology reflecting their maritime prowess and rugged lifestyle, with deities embodying the tempestuous elements of their world. **6. Climatic Influences on Civilization:** Gould further discusses how climatic conditions influence the advancement of civilizations. He posits that the Chaldeans, living in a pastoral country and descending from nomadic ancestors in Central Asia, advanced in astronomy and climatology due to their prolonged exposure to the vast open steppes and highlands. Their precise understanding of climatic patterns may have surpassed even modern knowledge. **Conclusion:** Charles Gould's "Mythical Monsters" is a comprehensive exploration of the intersections between ancient mythologies, pre-historic civilizations, and the environmental influences shaping human culture. By questioning traditional timelines and examining the global spread and adaptation of myths, Gould provides a scholarly insight into the deep-rooted connections between human history, environment, and mythological beliefs. This overview encapsulates the core themes and arguments of Gould's work, providing a scholarly perspective suitable for an academic profile. The detailed exploration highlights Gould's critical approach to traditional historical timelines, his examination of the universal spread of myths, and his insights into the environmental influences on cultural and mythological development.

Background: Hair is one of the outermost parts of the body that hard to be avoid from sun exposure. Sunlight contains UV-A and UV-B which can damage hair health. One of them is treatment with natural shampoo ingredients that have antioxidant activity. The purpose of this study is to obtain a shampoo preparation of yogurt ingredients and green betel leaf extract that has antioxidant activity with the best concentration. Materials and Methods: The tools used in this research are digital scales, hot plates, thermometers, pans,

Several years ago, I presented a two-day workshop in a large European city. Simultaneous translation from English to the local language was made available to the participants. I met the professional translator (who was not a psychotherapist) at the beginning of the day but did not speak with her at length. Complimenting has been a criterion within Solution-Focused Brief Therapy history and tradition. From the early development of the approach in Milwaukee, compliments played a key role in pointing out client strengths/resources and heightening the end-of-session task. In this manuscript, complimenting is reviewed historically. Then the practice is critiqued using the notion of " not-knowing " (Anderson & Goolishian, 1992; De Jong & Berg, 2012), followed by a commentary on possible cultural considerations that need to be considered by the SF practitioner. Finally, a review of traditional complimenting is offered along with additional types, with alternate applications and clinical examples that better fit with not-knowing and intercultural practices (Miller, 2014).

Among the general population, students are especially sensitive to social media and smartphones because of their pervasiveness. Several studies have shown that there is a negative correlation between social media and academic performance since they can lead to behaviors that hurt students' careers, e.g., addictedness. However, these studies either focus on smartphones and social media addictedness or rely on surveys, which only provide approximate estimates. We propose to bridge this gap by i) parametrizing social media usage and academic performance, and ii) combining smartphones and time diaries to keep track of users' activities and their smartphone interaction. We apply our solution on the 72 students participating in the SmartUnitn project, which investigates students' time management and their academic performance. By analyzing the logs of social media apps on students' smartphones and by comparing them to students' credits and grades, we can provide a quan...
