Sinossi

Workaholism explores the complex issue of work addiction, distinguishing it from healthy dedication and highlighting its detrimental effects on individuals and organizations. It examines how our always-on culture, fueled by technology, can blur the lines between professional commitment and personal well-being, often leading to increased stress and burnout. The book argues that workaholism is driven by internal compulsions rather than external demands, challenging the notion that long hours automatically equate to success.

The book presents a structured approach, first defining workaholism and exploring its psychological underpinnings, drawing from areas like attachment theory and personality psychology to explain why some individuals are more prone to work addiction. It then examines organizational factors contributing to the problem. For example, workplace culture plays a significant role. Supported by research and case studies from diverse industries, it offers strategies for both individuals and organizations to foster a healthier work-life balance, emphasizing employee well-being and productivity.

Finally, the book provides practical, evidence-based solutions for managing and preventing workaholism. It includes self-assessment tools and coping strategies, empowering readers to recognize and address their own workaholic tendencies. Managers and HR professionals can utilize the book’s insights to cultivate healthier workplace environments and implement policies that support employee well-being. By challenging the glorification of overwork and offering actionable advice, this book serves as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand and combat work addiction.

The Morals of Diet - The First Step

Leo Tolstoy

Written in 1892, during the later years of his life, Leo Tolstoy’s The Morals of Diet reflects the profound spiritual transformation that reshaped his outlook after Anna Karenina and War and Peace. In the decades following his literary success, Tolstoy underwent a moral and religious awakening, renouncing wealth, privilege, and the comforts of aristocratic life. He sought a simpler, purer existence grounded in truth, humility, and nonviolence. This period gave rise to his moral essays — What I Believe, The Kingdom of God Is Within You, and The Morals of Diet (The First Step) — in which he strove to align daily actions with spiritual conscience. 
The First Step emerges from this search for ethical coherence. Ostensibly an essay about vegetarianism, it is in fact a meditation on the nature of moral progress and the necessity of compassion. Tolstoy argues that abstaining from the killing of animals is the first, most tangible act of moral purification — “the first step” toward a life of genuine goodness. For him, cruelty, however subtle or socially accepted, degrades the human spirit. To refrain from violence, even in small forms, is to begin transforming one’s relationship to all living beings.

Humanity in Trouble and Our...

James Vodnik

Mankind is on a crash course with destiny and doesn't seem to have a clue! We are witnessing rapidly accelerating global warming of our own making that could potentially result in species extinctions, including our own. Witness widespread signs of the impending disaster including super storms, record drought, floods, forest fires and climate refugees. Dangerous nuclear saber rattling by Russia and North Korea is on the upswing and the Russian invasion of Ukraine threatens to expand to Western Europe. The increasing number of fascist, autocratic, dictator-run states such as China, North Korea, Turkey, and Brazil are snuffing individual freedoms, denying social justice and fanning the flames of global conflict. The world's population is rapidly approaching eight billion and is well past the point of Earth's ability to sustain us. Crushing poverty, starvation, and dozens of militarized religious and ethnic conflicts. We have polluted our planet with toxic chemicals, oil spills, reckless dumping of trash on land and sea, contaminating the oceans with fish and fowl killing plastic waste.
This book is the result of overwhelming outrage and disappointment with our species, our failure to adequately address worldwide problems that threaten our very existence. We (if there is a 'we') should be embarrassed and ashamed. Nature has endowed us with near perfect bodies and amazing brains and for the most part we squander our evolutionary inheritance. And the greatest gift of all, consciousness, is under-developed in most of us. In this collection of essays, the author offers insights into the human condition, the reasons we have run afoul of the natural order, along solutions to alleviate human suffering on an individual and global scale plus some playful jabs at our human folly.

Ph.D. Eric Maisel

In an age of constant change and uncertainty, how can we remain calm, centered, and able to respond wisely?  
In this 2026 interview with Justine Willis Toms, creativity coach and psychotherapist Eric Maisel introduces the practice of serene readiness—a mindset that blends inner tranquility with the nimbleness to act decisively. He offers practical tools for managing anxiety, maintaining focus, and living with purpose, showing how serenity can be cultivated not only in meditation, but in the midst of daily life. Serene readiness, Maisel explains, means being mentally and emotionally prepared for life’s surprises while staying anchored in one’s values and creative intentions. He invites us to take personal responsibility for meaning-making and to design a calm, purposeful “inner architecture” that nurtures courage, presence, and self-compassion.  
Eric Maisel is a retired, licensed psychotherapist and an internationally respected coach specializing in creativity, existential wellness, and relationship coaching. His books include:
