  Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder that may occur in people who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event such as a natural disaster, a severe accident, a terrorist act, war/combat, or rape or who have been threatened with death, sexual violence or severe injury.PTSD can occur in all people of any ethnicity, nationality, culture, and age. PTSD affects approximately 3.5 percent of U.S. adults every year. An estimated one in 11 people will be diagnosed with PTSD in their lifetime. Women are twice as likely as men to have PTSD. People with PTSD have intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings related to their experience that last long after the traumatic event. They may relive the event through flashbacks or nightmares; they may feel sadness, fear, or anger; and they may feel detached or estranged from other people. People with PTSD may avoid situations or people that remind them of the traumatic event, and they may have strong adverse reactions to something as ordinary as a loud noise or an accidental touch.People with a diagnosis of PTSD are defended and insecure about many things in life. It is essential to create a safe place where people can explore and share their experiences and understand why they are experiencing life as they do to begin the healing process in a therapeutic environment. This book may offer much to promote the healing and growth of those affected by complex trauma.

  Fooled by the Winners is a book about survivor bias, the cognitive error of focusing on the winners, the successes, and the living. But in many instances, we can learn more from those who have lost, failed, or died. 
   
   
   
  After reading this book, you will understand how survivor bias is often used to deceive us. You will learn how to stop paying for financial services that promise more than they deliver, for health care that doesn't make us healthier, for diets that don't make us slimmer, and for advice books that don't offer good advice. You will also come away with a different view of our past, including our perilous evolutionary journey and how history has often been written by the winners. You will come to understand how we are fooled by the winners in warfare, such as in the deployment of nuclear weapons and the most famous example of survivor bias—the missing allied bombers of WWII. 
   
   
   
  Previous studies of survivor bias have been inaccessible to most, housed in formula-laden statistical journals. But you won't find any math or technical jargon here. Through compelling analysis and the real-life stories, this book demonstrates the deceptive influence of survivor bias in our daily lives and on our thinking.

  Anarchism: The Basics - An...

  Anarchism is often misunderstood as simply chaos or disorder, but it is, in fact, a political and philosophical ideology that seeks the abolition of unjust systems of power, particularly the state and hierarchical structures. At its core, anarchism advocates for a society based on voluntary cooperation, mutual aid, and the dismantling of coercive institutions. It emphasizes individual freedom, collective responsibility, and the rejection of authority in all its forms, whether governmental, economic, or social. 
  The roots of anarchist thought can be traced back to the early 19th century, with thinkers like Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, who famously declared that "property is theft," and later, figures like Mikhail Bakunin and Peter Kropotkin. These early anarchists critiqued the existing state, capitalism, and organized religion, arguing that they were inherently oppressive and exploitative. Anarchism, for these thinkers, was not just about rejecting government, but also about challenging societal norms that perpetuate inequality and injustice. 
  One of the most important aspects of anarchism is its emphasis on direct action and the creation of alternative systems of organization. Anarchists believe that meaningful change does not come from traditional political structures like elections or parliamentary processes, but through grassroots action and community-based solutions. This can involve protests, strikes, and other forms of resistance, but also the establishment of cooperative enterprises, mutual aid networks, and non-hierarchical communities.
