  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In "Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us" by Daniel H. Pink, the author explores the science of motivation, arguing that traditional reward and punishment systems are often ineffective. The book presents the idea of intrinsic motivation, fueled by autonomy, mastery, and purpose, as a more powerful alternative. It delves into the flaws of extrinsic motivators, such as monetary incentives, and reveals how they can undermine creativity and performance. Instead, the narrative suggests that fostering an environment that supports self-direction, continuous improvement, and a sense of significance is the key to true motivation and fulfillment. The book offers practical advice for individuals, organizations, educators, and parents to embrace a more effective approach to motivation.

  The first-ever social and scientific history of masturbation, which unapologetically critiques a system that has sought to control the very human desire for self-pleasure. 
   
   
    
  Despite decades of medical and psychological research confirming that masturbation is healthy, the act remains shrouded in taboo and pseudoscience. In DIY, Dr. Eric Sprankle reveals the untold story of crusaders on a long campaign to suppress masturbation and the sex educators fighting back with science. He introduces listeners to a colorful cast of characters: doctors advocating for the use of chastity devices, wellness influencers who believe ejaculation depletes the body of vital nutrients, pastors who preach that masturbation creates mermaids, and vibrator aficionados who teach the curious how to come. DIY will challenge what you think you know about the very human need for self-pleasure. 
   
   
    
  Part sex-positive exposé, part fascinating science, DIY spotlights generations of sex education countering anti-masturbation pseudoscience with empowering truths about pleasure. This sex book is perfect for fans of Mary Roach books like Bonk or anyone curious about the history of sex and masturbation.

  Honor Loyalty and Merit - The...

  The Spanish nobility continues to be influential in the early 21st century in politics, academia, and the economy. The polarized socio-cultural environment in Spain in the early decades of the millennium is paralleled by an increasingly divisive political discourse and deadlock in terms of governance. Understanding the subcultures of the most influential socio-political groups is important to be able to interpret the political developments. A vast array of studies have been conducted about the rise of the extreme left but there is a dearth of studies dealing with the impact of the traditional nobility in contemporary Spain. The present study presents an emic model of elite culture through the application of a grounded theory approach to texts released by five of the main noble associations in Spain during the last ten years. An inductive approach focuses on the identification of important themes and concepts as expressed and understood by the participants. Traditional noble associations are the focus of the study, in particular, the associations under Royal patronage. The resulting emic model aims to map the mores, norms, and values of a highly visible social group about which there are very few sociological and anthropological studies.
