News & Developments

The mortgage crisis is still very present in the headlines months after the initial collapse. WE ALL FALL DOWN is a precise, and most importantly, accessible chronicle of how the mortgage finance system came to its current state of crisis. An important and timely documentary to understand how we got there, it features NYU professors Nouriel Roubini and Richard Sylla.

We also have acquired recently some great films on the links between neuroscience and psychology. MIND IN MOTION is the perfect introduction to study of the brain with a focus on the latest findings and the relationship between body and mind. THE HIDDEN FACE OF FEAR
analyses how fear and anxiety work within the brain through the case study of a group of New Yorkers after 9-11. It features NYU professor Joseph LeDoux and Nobel Prize-winning neurobiologist Eric R. Kandel.
