Narcissist - The Treacherous...

Taylor Hench

This is a 2-book combo, which has the following titles:
Book 1: If you’ve been looking for a book about narcissism, you probably already have an idea of what it is. Still, we’ll define it in this book before we start expanding on the intricate details of such a personality. In part, because there are so many myths about it and the term gets tossed around like a diaper into a trash been, while most people don’t realize what it is all about.
Moreover, there are other aspects of narcissism that need to be addressed. For instance, other personality disorders, such as anorexia nervosa, are sometimes linked to narcissism; and susceptible or vulnerable narcissism is very different from grandiose narcissism. And yet, despite its many unattractive traits, many people are definitely charmed by the charisma of a narcissist.
These topics are all very fascinating, so please, take the time to study them a bit.
Book 2: In this guide, we will go over some interesting subtopics related to narcissism, such as the impact of celebrities on narcissists in society, of social media, and other significant influences.
Also, we’ll go over a small checklist that you can use to see if a narcissist is a threat or not, so you know what to expect. Narcissism is often an issue in politics. Some narcissists are also sociopaths, and some narcissists are just the result of our civilization’s greedy emphasis on monetary values and the showing off of status symbols of wealth.
And then all of this begs the question: Is narcissism ever beneficial? Or is it always wrong? And if so, to what extend?
To learn more about these things, simply pick up this book online and start reading or listening.

Backup after the Beat - YOU ARE...

Steve Eastin

Backup after the Beat should be compulsory reading for first responders, whether serving or retired, professional or civilian, as well as those closest to them.
Author Steve Eastin is a retired cop with eighteen years’ service under his belt. After retirement and looking forward to enjoying life with his family, he found his time on the beat wasn’t quite done. Without realizing it, this tough professional found himself firmly in the grip of the terrifying and potentially lethal Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
You’d better believe PTSD is real: Steve challenges the deniers and haters, showing how first responders are our front line against chaos. Daily confronted by the unbelievable, the inconceivable, the unspeakable―they risk their lives to protect us in the face of the human talent for evil. Physically tough, resilient, and skilled at staying alive, how do these extraordinary human beings mentally cope when responding to emergency calls with no idea what fresh hell awaits them or their officers once on scene? For them, the horrors can’t be unseen and, if untreated, the psychological effects of PTSD can resonate for years to come, with some resorting to suicide.
Steve is now determined to help prevent other first responders and their families suffering from the malign effects of PTSD. Based on his own experiences, those of colleagues, and family members, he reveals the unacknowledged truth about first responder roles, while laying bare the potential psychological cost of being on the beat―even years into retirement. This book is a must-read for retired, serving, and future first responders, and anyone interested in the effects of PTSD.
