Abstract: Review: according to the proved hypotheses, every person has a regular ‘conscious’ mind and a ‘duplicate’ mind, or bio field subconscious mind and bio field memory. All people essentially have a defense mechanism preventing the information from their bio field memory from being transferred to their regular memory. That mechanism does not allow such information to interfere with our mental activity. Vanga is different from all the others because her ‘defense mechanism’ does not work and her mind keeps all information received from her bio field memory. Certain studies prove that bio field subconscious mind and bio field memory work approximately 10 million times as fast as a regular mind does. They are like a bio field computer which interprets foreign languages in the form of images and signs of Vanga’s native language. That way it just rings in her head

Abstract: Review: what do we expect from school today? Is the school’s only goal to reproduce existing culture? Does the school need to ‘make up’ loyal citizens out of children? The authors analyzed changes in methodological and psychological basis of modern education, in particular, its transition from a formally logic disciplinary structure to a narrative interpreting model. According to the authors, education cannot be viewed only as a tool for transferring knowledge. It is not enough just to establish a certain teaching method and to implement it at school. Education has a more global task which is to adjust culture to man’s needs and to prepare a man for realizing his social functions. This is the only context in which the true nature of education can be understood

Abstract: Review: the author analyzed all conceptions of nanopsychology in our country. There is quite a wide range of those, from totally unscientific to the conceptions closely related to psychology.
