Synopsis

Ever feel like there's got to be more to life than just chasing the next big thing? This book dives deep into that feeling. It's all about finding real meaning in a world that's obsessed with stuff. We're bombarded with messages telling us we need to buy more, have more, and do more to be happy. But what if true happiness lies in a totally different direction? Inspired by Steve Jobs' famous Stanford commencement speech, "Finding True North in a Material World" explores how embracing experiences, connecting with others, and nurturing your inner self can lead to a truly fulfilling life. It's packed with insights from philosophy, psychology, and real-life examples to help you break free from the grip of materialism and discover what really matters. Think of it as your guide to navigating the complexities of modern life and finding your own path to a life of purpose and joy. This book isn't just another self-help book filled with empty promises. It's a deep dive into timeless wisdom, offering practical strategies for living a more intentional and meaningful life. You'll learn how to prioritize experiences over possessions, cultivate inner peace through mindfulness, and find beauty in the everyday. It's about redefining success on your own terms and creating a life that truly aligns with your values. If you're ready to ditch the pursuit of "more" and discover the richness of a life lived with intention, this book is your compass.

    A new model of executive functioning which illuminates the somatic, social, and emotional influences on how we make decisions. 
     
    Executive functioning (EF) can be defined as a person's ability to successfully navigate their physical, intellectual, and social worlds. Interest in EF is expanding within psychotherapy, but like many scientific concepts which are adapted to the consulting room, there is a great deal of confusion and misinformation surrounding EF within clinical and lay communities. 
     
    In this book, Louis Cozolino—a master of translating complex neuroscientific concepts into digestible, applicable literature for therapists and laypeople alike—is joined by experts Chloe Drulis and Carly Trissler to illuminate how our brains and minds successfully navigate the challenges of day—to—day life. The book offers a new, neurodynamic model of EF that explains the three main executive systems in the brain and the specific ways that they influence how we think, focus, and solve problems. This neurobiological framework highlights the interconnectedness of cognition, emotion, and relationships, providing readers with a deeper understanding of how humans function and strategies to improve outcomes in therapy, parenting, executive coaching, and personal development.

    If you’re a survivor of sexual harm, recovering your sexuality is possible. You are worthy of good care. The toxic effects of sexual trauma and abuse can be devastating and lasting. Victims’ ability to experience healthy sexuality, even if they free themselves from the abuse, is often shattered. If sexual abuse, violence, or coercive control is part of your story, certified sex addiction therapist (CSAT) and trauma specialist Tabitha Westbrook wants you to know: you are not alone, and healing is possible.  In Body & Soul, Healed & Whole, Tabitha draws on her specialized expertise, her own personal story of abuse, and a deep knowledge of Scripture to create a safe and compassionate place for you to start recovering — or even finding — the healthy sexuality God intended for you.  With honest wisdom and empathetic understanding, Body & Soul, Healed & Whole will help you discover how to:  Process your story of abuse—whether it occurred as a child, within marriage, or by someone in a position of power—without shame.  Develop healthy relationships with God, with yourself, and with others (including those of the opposite sex).  Reconnect with your good body and establish a foundation for healthy sexuality, whether currently married or single.  Identify and address any spiritual abuse that may have taken place within sexually abusive relationships.  Understand what arousal structures are, how they’re formed and distorted by abuse, and how to shift them when needed for healing.  Incorporate practical skills for self-care during your healing process.  Sexuality does not have to be forever broken. Rest assured in a God who understands and loves you in the deepest of deep ways—and begin your journey toward wholeness, restoration, and healing.

    How Russians, the Rich and the Government Try to Prevent Free Speech and How to Stop Them. 
    ‘ESSENTIAL’ Amal Clooney 
    ‘AUTHORITATIVE’ Sir Geoffrey Bindman KC 
    ‘IMPORTANT ’Baroness Helena Kennedy KC 
    ‘COULD HARDLY BE MORE TIMELY’ Alan Rusbridger 
    The British tradition of “free speech” is a myth. From the middle ages to the present, the law of defamation has worked to cover up misbehaviour by the rich and powerful, whose legal mercenaries intimidate investigative journalists. 
    Now a new terror has been added through misguided judicial development of the laws of privacy, breach of confidence and data protection, to suppress the reporting of truths of public importance to tell. 
    Drawing upon the author’s unparalleled experience of defending journalists and editors in English and Commonwealth courtrooms over the past half-century, the book describes the hidden world of lawfare, in which authors struggle against unfair rules that put them always on the defensive and against a costs burden that runs to millions. Law schools do not teach freedom of speech and judges in the Supreme Court do not understand it. 
    This book identifies and advocates the reforms that will be necessary before Britain can truly boast that it is a land of free speech, rather than a place where free speech can come very expensive. 
    Robertson's latest exploration into media censorship is a political exposé of the new forms of litigation. His best work yet, it is a must-read for anyone interested in the fight for free speech. 
    For fans of Anne Applebaum (Autocracy, Inc), Mariana Mazzucato (The Big Con), Ian Dunt (How Westminster Works . . . and Why It Doesn't), Bob Woodward (The Trump Tapes), and Oliver Bullough (The Last Man in Russia).
