Now this is fascinating! The stomach has it's own brain and influences everything we do!

Think Twice: How the Gut's "Second

Brain" Influences Mood and Well-Being

The emerging and surprising view of how the enteric nervous system in our bellies goes far beyond just processing the food we eat.

Huh, there is a "nascent field of neurogastroenterology". Considering the stomach as a much more significant organ in the well being of a human, that's something Chinese medicine has understood in ways that Western (allopathic) medicine has not.

An 80 year old, British man secretly saved 669 children during WW2, never telling anyone. When his wife found the documents years later in his attic and submitted them to the BBC. They then organised this... Sir Nicholas Winton is a true hero.

There are marvelous free courses on the web from reputed universities. Here is a course in psychology, free online, from Yale
Introduction to Psychology with Paul Bloom

At Berkeley
An area of interest to me, destructive personality disorders, as it impacts others.
What I come away with it that the university courses are not especially informative, except at the higher level of study and that there is more substantive information to be read on the web. This last professor at Yale, Professor Bloom, makes sweeping, simplistic statements, like "Dahmer killed people to eat them". Not especially thoughtful or intelligently taught, imo.
This East Carolina University lecture on personality disorders is not bad.
