  Why do you immediately click with some people while others just as inexplicably turn you off? Do people emit vibes? Is it possible to read a room? Are bad habits contagious?Kate Murphy,  author of the international bestseller You’re Not Listening, answers these and other fascinating questions in Why We Click, the first book that explores the emerging science and outsize impact of interpersonal synchrony, the most consequential social dynamic most people have never heard of. Interpersonal synchrony is the seemingly magical, yet now scientifically documented, tendency of human beings to fall into rhythm and find resonance with one another.Not only do we subconsciously match one another’s movements, postures, facial expressions, and gestures; recent breakthroughs in technology have revealed we also sync up our heart rates, blood pressure, brainwaves, pupil dilation, and hormonal activity. The result is that emotions, moods, attitudes, and subsequent behaviors can be as infectious as any disease, and can have just as profound an impact on our health and well-being.Interweaving science, philosophy, literature, history, business management theory, pop-culture, and plenty of relatable, real world examples, Why We Click explains why being “in sync,” “in tune,” “in step,” and “on the same wavelength” are more than just turns of phrase. From the bedroom to the boardroom and beyond, Murphy reveals with characteristic curiosity, concision, and wit how our instinct to sync with others drives much of our behavior and how our deepest desires—to be known, admired, loved, and connected—are so often thwarted in modern life.

  During the first millennium AD the most northerly part of Britain evolved into the country known today as Scotland. The transition was a long process of social and political change driven by the ambitions of powerful warlords. At first these men were tribal chiefs, Roman generals, or rulers of small kingdoms. Later, after the Romans departed, the initiative was seized by dynamic warrior-kings who campaigned far beyond their own borders. Armies of Picts, Scots, Vikings, Britons, and Anglo-Saxons fought each other for supremacy. 
   
   
   
  From Lothian to Orkney, from Fife to the Isle of Skye, fierce battles were won and lost. By AD 1000 the political situation had changed for ever. Led by a dynasty of Gaelic-speaking kings, the Picts and Scots began to forge a single, unified nation which transcended past enmities. In this book, the remarkable story of how ancient North Britain became the medieval kingdom of Scotland is told.

  Writing in response to the growing anti-Chinese sentiment and alarmed by the threat of war, Dr. David Daokui Li pulls from his wealth of firsthand experience to demystify contemporary Chinese society and advocate for understanding between China and the West. In this urgently needed and fascinating book, he explains the inner workings of a rising superpower to help the world understand how it works—and how to work with it. 
   
   
   
  In Li's hands, an economic and political system that often baffles Westerners becomes coherent, sophisticated, and logical. He begins by explaining how two thousand years of history—from Confucian philosophy and ancient imperial dynasties to Communist Party chairmen from Mao to Deng Xiaoping—profoundly influence China's leadership today. Li brings the listener into high-level meetings he attended with figures including Xi Jinping, showing China's approach to governance. 
   
   
   
  In demystifying contemporary Chinese society, Li helps listeners reconceptualize contemporary China and the implications of its growth. He asserts that China's rise will be beneficial for the global order, holding out the hope that with shared understanding and mutual learning the Chinese and Western systems will eventually find a way to peacefully coexist.

  Power does not belong to the righteous—it belongs to those ruthless enough to take it. 
  From the ancient empires to modern political regimes, history has been shaped not by the moral, but by the manipulative. The Tyrant's Handbook: How to Rule, Deceive, and Dominate is a cold, strategic manual that dissects the psychology of control, the art of deception, and the brutal truths of leadership. 
  This book explores the unspoken laws of power—how rulers condition obedience, manipulate perception, use fear and loyalty as weapons, and ensure their dominance remains unchallenged. It exposes the tactics used by tyrants, corporate leaders, and political masterminds to bend reality to their will, from rewriting history to manufacturing crises to justify greater control. 
  Inside, you will learn: 
  ✔ The Psychology of Control – How to make people obey without force. 
  ✔ The Laws of Manipulation – Why perception is stronger than truth. 
  ✔ The Art of Deception – How lies and distractions keep rulers in power. 
  ✔ Fear vs. Loyalty – How to balance terror and rewards for absolute control. 
  ✔ Economic Domination – Using money, debt, and financial systems to enslave. 
  ✔ Eliminating Opposition – The tactics for removing threats before they rise. 
  ✔ The Theater of Rule – How politics, propaganda, and spectacle shape power. 
  ✔ The Eternal Game – How to keep control once you have it. 
  Power is the only law that matters. Those who do not understand it will forever be controlled by those who do. This book is for those who refuse to be ruled.
