  As environmental, political, and public health crises multiply on Earth, we are also at the dawn of a new space race in which governments team up with celebrity billionaires to exploit the cosmos for human gain. The best-known of these pioneers are selling different visions of the future: while Elon Musk and SpaceX seek to establish a human presence on Mars, Jeff Bezos and Blue Origin work toward moving millions of earthlings into rotating near-Earth habitats. Despite these distinctions, these two billionaires share a core utopian project: the salvation of humanity through the exploitation of space. In Astrotopia, philosopher of science and religion Mary-Jane Rubenstein pulls back the curtain on the not-so-new myths these space barons are peddling, like growth without limit, energy without guilt, and salvation in a brand-new world. As Rubenstein reveals, we have already seen the destructive effects of this frontier zealotry in the centuries-long history of European colonialism. But Rubenstein does more than expose the values of capitalist technoscience as the product of bad mythologies. She offers a vision of exploring space without reproducing the atrocities of earthly colonialism, encouraging us to find and even make stories that put cosmic caretaking over profiteering.

  To maintain and strengthen your mental and emotional health is important to pay attention to your needs and feelings. Don't let the negative emotions build a stress wall around you. Try to keep a balance between their daily responsibilities and the things you like. If you take care of yourself, you will be better prepared to handle the challenges if, and when they arise. 
  Everyone is different, and not all things are equally beneficial for all people. Some people feel better just relaxing doing nothing while others need more activity and more excitement or stimulation to feel better. The most important thing is to find activities that you enjoy and that give you a boost. Do more exercises, spend more time in contact with nature and be with the people we love are the main activities that can be as effective as medication in treating a variety of mental illnesses, including depression and anxiety, according to a study at the University of California, USA. 
  This book before your eyes can initiate a change which you never paid attention before. It can open a door and illuminate dark corners that were previously unknown or ignored, and you made sure to forget. And many times these dark corners are the answers to questions you always looked for. 
  In this book we will talk about:What is Mental Health? What is its importance?Mental Health X EnvironmentMental Health X Physical HealthThe inner realityExploring self-knowledge

  Written by the director of the prestigious Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology. Very topical subject in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic and loss of smell. No comparable book on the market that accessibly explains the sense of smell.
