    Abstract Italian operas can provide relevant information on the medical knowledge during the Romantic Age, especially in the field of neuroscience. One of the most renowned operas, "Nabucco" by Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901) may provide us with some information on the state of knowledge on neuropsychiatric diseases in the first part of the nineteenth century. The main character of this opera, the Assyrian king Nabucco suffers from delirium. Psychic signs and symptoms attributed to Nabucco in Verdi's opera could have been influenced by a better knowledge of neuropsychiatric diseases in the nineteenth century. Furthermore, the representation of Nabucco's mental illness in the opera could also have been influenced by direct experiences of Verdi himself, who seems to have suffered from recurrent depressive episodes in that period, and for the rest of his life.

    Abstract Objective: To analyze the pioneering research of Giuseppe Ferrario (1802-1870) on the epidemiology of apoplexy. To our knowledge, his work might have been the first to systematically investigate the epidemiology of cerebrovascular accidents, with the aim of shedding light on the underlying causes.
    Methods: A detailed analysis of the essay "Statistics of sudden deaths, more particularly of deaths from apoplexy, in the city and neighborhood of Milan, from 1750 to 1834," published by Ferrario in 1834.
    Results: Ferrario conducted a large retrospective study on 13,360 people who died from apoplexy during an 84-year observational period. Analyzed data showed that these events were more frequent among men and during winter. Apoplexy was reported as mainly occurring at the age of 60; an increase in mortality was observed in young women aged between 21 and 30 years, probably due to an abuse of bloodletting. Ferrario introduced the term "hereditary apoplexy," being one of the first to hypothesize hereditary components in cerebrovascular diseases. He also tried to investigate the role of social conditions in the etiopathogenesis of these events, analyzing marital and employment status and suggesting to his colleagues that cultural and economic factors should be further examined.
    Conclusions: Giuseppe Ferrario may be considered as a pioneer of modern science and epidemiology and his work deserves consideration within the history of neurology and of neuroepidemiology.

    Abstract This commentary suggests that the physical substrate of integrated information is dependent on the reference frame used to observe it. Furthermore, it uses a thought experiment - can a neuroscientist, locked in a closed room and connected through Zoom with his grandmother to demonstrate that the consciousness of his grannie is NOT in the PC? - to underline the problems that neglecting reference frames may cause to consciousness research.

    Abstract Personal psychological growth: Why are some people able to promote their own psychological growth (bold tag) and change toward complexity while others not? Is it possible to propose simple methodologies and instruments that would allow selection of positive experiences and hence develop a stronger and richer Self? This book describes the way to promote and foster positive psychological growth in everyday life, through simple instruments accessible to anyone. Positive psychological experience: The focal point of the approach is the concept of Flow of Consciousness, an experience of subjective psychological wellbeing that nourishes and complexifies the Self.-

    The authors propose a wide overview of positive psychological experience (bold tag) considering individual characteristics and experiences, as well as the influence of context, culture and social relationship, and the effects of the immersion in a globalized world, like the increasing daily use of mediated communication technologies. In the various chapters, this conceptual frame is declined in different areas of research, either consolidated ones or new fields. Self-development tips: In a fresh and engaging style, the book transports the readers in a world of situations and opportunities through which they can identify themselves in a positive and stable self-development (bold tag) process. In the first two chapters the authors describe the impact of positive psychological experience in social and individual life.-

    In the following chapters the reader discovers, accompanied by the exposition of concrete research results, the specific characteristics that may promote flow experience in several field of experience: the use of communication technology; the experience of social-networks; clinical settings and Psychotherapy; the psychological relation with environment, politics and social participation, school, sports, family business, mentors influence, and the perception of quality of life in daytime. Everyday opportunities: This opportunity of interacting with different and various kinds of experiences, that may appear dispersive, will on the contrary bring the reader - who may choose this book both for professional or personal reasons - to understand the concept of personal psychological growth in the wider and more concrete perspective, and to comprehend which personal skills he may bring into play in order to improve his personality and his daily experience
