    Learn how to understand your inner self and equip yourself with scientific strategies to conquer your ANXIETY!Do you find yourself over thinking every step you are taking? Feel vulnerable every time your friend say “pull yourself together drama queen?” (or king)? Struggle with a professional failure or a personal issue? Long for reclaiming power over your own self by yourself? Want to get help now by an expert without undergoing hours of confessions in a confined office?Anxiety affects more than 18% of Americans and more than 25% of the world population: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. We tend to forget that our lives are loaded by a myriad of inevitable changes and our age is too hectic to cope with it without getting help. We discount the fact that we get overwhelmed every time life hits us hard; instead we shrink in our sense of stigma and failure and get trapped in the shackles of our out-of-control anxiety.This book will help you figure out the reasons and triggers behind collapsing into anxiety. In a conversational style, Dr. Canny teaches you techniques for analyzing and understanding your own anxiety thoughts and triggers. In the first part of the book, you dig deeper into your inner-self and come up with the reasons behind your unhelpful cognitive distortions; those mistaken and manipulating thoughts, beliefs and attitudes that you cling to without even recognizing them. Then, you will be guided through practical strategies of emotional regulation to develop your own coping strategies and skills to solve the situations you fear and implement lifestyle changes.

    Prepare for this new generation, prepare for the Afripolitan Generation. A revolution is taking place in the great marketplaces of the informal sector and it contains an unquantified scale and power as an economic engine and a way of life for the majority of our low income populations. The KasiNomic Revolution may still be a murmur in the streets, a grassroots economic groundswell, but it is the future of African economic activity. Kasi is the South African term for the township – a teeming conurbation of homes and businesses, entertainment venues and social meeting places. GG Alcock uses the term KasiNomics to describe the informal sectors of Africa, whether they are in the township, a rural marketplace, at a taxi rank or on a pavement in the shadow of skyscrapers. Brought up in a rural Zulu community GG has learnt and shares the lessons of African culture, language, stick fighting, lifestyle and tribal politics, along with shared poverty and community, which have prepared him for accessing the great informal marketplaces of Africa. GG Alcock is uniquely placed to uncover and share the extraordinary stories of kasi businesses in which they not only survive but excel, revealing a revolutionary entrepreneurship which is mostly invisible to the formal sector. KasiNomic Revolution is a story of kasi entrepreneurs on one side, on the other great corporate success stories and failures in the informal economy. KasiNomic Revolution is at once a business book, and at the same time a deeply human book about the people and lives of rural and urban informal societies. KasiNomic Revolution is about the lessons of marketing, distribution, culture and modernity in an informal African world.

    Dive into the depths of the mind with "The Human Psychology Bible," a comprehensive two-part series that seeks to unravel the intricate tapestry of human behavior and thought. Authored by the insightful Alan G. Fields, this definitive compilation, featuring "Human Psychology 101" and its advanced counterpart "Human Psychology 202," offers a profound look into what propels our actions, shapes our personalities, and defines our interactions. 
    "The Human Psychology Bible" is not just another academic text; it's an engaging journey into understanding the gray complexities that govern our everyday lives. Alan G. Fields draws upon extensive research, real-life anecdotes, and relatable stories, breaking down the seven core aspects of human psychology: emotions, personality, decision-making, morality, perception, behavior, and relationships. 
    In "Human Psychology 101," Fields lays the foundation, mapping the landscapes of the mind with a vibrant introduction to psychological principles. It's a guide designed to elucidate the mechanics of the mind, offering a window into why people behave the way they do — a sort of psychological sleight of hand that transforms the mystifying into the comprehensible. 
    Advancing to "Human Psychology 202," the exploration deepens. Fields skillfully addresses the complexities of human thought processes, unmasking the often irrational patterns that can lead to negativity and self-sabotage. This section delves into the power of thought and its profound impact on our actions, encouraging readers to break free from the chains of limited thinking and embrace the full spectrum of mental possibilities.
