David C. Van Essen is one of many connectome projects across the globe. Dr. Van Essen engineered the human connectome project from a previous study two decades ago where he and his collaborators from California Institute of Technology mapped the connections of the visual areas of the Macaque monkey. Inspired by his Macaque monkey research, Dr. Van Essen transferred his academic curiosity to the human brain and its trillion synapses. After receiving two grants from the National Institute of Health, Dr. Van Essen’s Human Connectome Project (HCP) was fully funded. Dr. Van Essen chose to focus the HCP on long distance synapses within the gray matter of the cerebral cortex, otherwise known as the human macro connectome. In his Ted Talk he mentions briefly other neuroscientists studying the human micro connectome. Thus, the HPC had large goals for a relatively unexplored area of…

Big Bertha demolished whole forts with single shots breaking the courage of the enemies. The shells that were fired were the biggest at the time (12 caliber.) This was all possible because of a man named Friedrich Krupp. Big Bertha has created many events that have changed war today as we know it.

However, Essen (2010) argue that the ideas suggested that Buddhist economics are radically opposed the mainstream Western economics are stereotypes, it is a just opposite. This is because both views of economics are focuses on the concept of the self, whereas, the Western focuses on the maximization of self-interest, and the Buddhist view of the self focuses on collective rather individuals. Similarly, Zsolnai (2007) suggests that Buddhist communication is a strategy not a system and is…

Engelen, P., Lander, M. W., & van Essen, M. (2016). What determines crime rates? An empirical test of integrated economic and sociological theories of criminal behavior. The Social Science Journal, 53247-262. In this peer reviewed article Engelen, Lander, and van Essen attempt to determine whether economic or sociological theories determine crime rates. They begin by reiterating the fact that there is no determinate conclusion on what exact factors are related to crime rates. To test their…

was given to Hans. The first sentence spoken by Max to Hans was if he “still [played] the accordion.” (185). This signifies the importance of the accordion. Again, when Hans leaves for Essen, he does not take the accordion with him as a symbol for his wife Rosa, comforting her. World War I as a setting greatly affected Hans’ future actions in the present setting of the book and if these events were altered in any way, the current setting of the book could have potentially been drastically…
