Summary

Shopping addiction, pathological buying, or compulsive buying disorder are all mental health conditions characterized by the persistent, excessive, impulsive, and uncontrollable purchase of products despite severe psychological, social, occupational, and financial consequences. Unlike ordinary non-addicted shoppers, who buy to improve their mood, cope with stress, gain social approval/recognition, and improve their self-image, compulsive buyers buy to improve their mood, cope with stress, gain social support/recognition, and improve their self-image. Although the consequences of long-term compulsive buying include feelings of regret/remorse for purchases, shame, guilt, legal and financial problems, and interpersonal difficulties, people with compulsive buying fail to stop buying.In this book, you will learn:What is compulsive shoppingThe causes of compulsive shoppingThe marketing strategies companies usetreatments that can lead to a solution to the problemhow to regain mental and psychological health

    From 1908 to 1933, the American Museum of Natural History launched more scientific field expeditions than at any other time in its existence. Sponsoring lavish trips to Africa and Central Asia, the museum filled its halls with artifacts and an aura of adventure, supported by some of New York City's most prominent men. All the while, the museum's then president, Henry Fairfield Osborn, attempted to use his adventurers' expeditions to fulfill a personal agenda: to propagate his belief in racial hierarchy. 
     
    Palace of Deception uncovers the complicated legacy of three iconic figures of the American Museum: the preeminent explorer Roy Chapman Andrews; Carl Akeley, the pioneering taxidermist; and Osborn, the museum's president. Darrin Lunde tells the story of the American's Museum foundational years. Lunde also shows how the achievements of the museum's adventurers were used to introduce residents of New York to a version of the natural world endorsed by the museum's leader. 
     
    Palace of Deception recreates some of the most celebrated, globe-trotting journeys from natural history's heyday. It also traces the larger, racially infused milieu that underwrote the golden age of exploration, uncovering the simmering anxieties about race behind the era's greatest adventures. It is a legacy that still haunts natural history institutions today.

    This illuminating book weaves personal stories of a multilingual upbringing with the latest scientific breakthroughs in interspecies communication to show how the skill of deep listening enhances our curiosity and empathy toward the world around us 
     
     
     
    Third Ear braids together personal narrative with scholarly inquiry to examine the power of listening to build interpersonal empathy and social transformation. A daughter of Holocaust survivors, Rosner shares stories from growing up in a home where six languages were spoken to interrogate how psychotherapy, neurolinguistics, and creativity can illuminate the complex ways we are impacted by the sounds and silences of others. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on expertise from journalists, podcasters, performers, translators, acoustic biologists, spiritual leaders, composers, and educators, this hybrid text moves fluidly along a spectrum from molecular to global to reveal how third-ear listening can be a collective means for increased understanding and connection to the natural world.
