Inner Sky by Steven Forrest

The objective quantification of vigilance and sleepiness is more than ever an important focus in research. Impaired daytime vigilance due to insufficient sleep and low sleep quality has become an inevitable fact in industrialized countries. The reasons are manifold, the consequences may be fatal. Studies show that the loss of human life and also economic costs are substantial. The aim of this thesis is to objectively describe long-term daytime vigilance and sleepiness based on Electroencephalogram (EG)-derived variables. We were able to provide significant empirical evidence for the circadian and homeostatic behavior of EG-based variables. Our exploratory work is an important step towards objectively describing and predicting daytime vigilance and sleepiness. The positive results contribute to a better understanding of the representation of attentive processes in the EG.

Forrest, Steven: - teven Forrest is the author of several astrological bestsellers, including THE INNER SKY, THE CHANGING SKY, THE BOOK OF PLUTO, THE NIGHT SPEAKS, and the new astrology classic YESTERDAY'S SKY. Steven's work has been translated into a dozen languages, most recently Chinese and Italian. He travels worldwide to speak and teach his brand of choice-centered evolutionary astrology, which integrates free will, grounded humanistic psychology and ancient metaphysics. Along with his busy private practice, he maintains active astrological apprenticeship programs in California, Australia, North Carolina, and Switzerland. He is a founding member of the Ethics Committee of the International Society for Astrological Research (ISAR). The musician Sting calls Steven's work as intelligent and cogent as it is poetic. DELL HOROSCOPE describes him as not only a premier astrologer, but also a wise man. Callie Khouri, who wrote the screenplay for the mega-hit film Thelma and Louise, praises his humor, insight, poetry, and astute, articulate observations of human nature. O: THE OPRAH MAGAZINE describes his philosophy this way: Forrest's approach...stops the blame game in its tracks...we're warriors fulfilling our turbulent evolutionary paths. Actor Robert Downey Jr. says, I marvel at the accuracy of Steve's readings. He insists that nothing is so grave as to be beyond repair, and correspondingly that there is no rainbow that won't be evaporated by poor judgment in the now. I can't recommend him highly enough. And Rob Brezsny, in his popular Real Astrology column, simply calls him the most brilliant astrologer alive.
