  In a world where messages vanish and connections fade without warning, emotional attachment has become both more fragile and more complex. Attachment in the Age of Ghosting explores what happens when modern dating collides with ancient survival instincts — how our nervous systems interpret silence as threat, and why anxious and avoidant patterns now play out in texts, not touch. Through psychology, neuroscience, and real-world reflection, this book guides readers to recognize their attachment style, decode emotional triggers, and learn how to communicate securely even when others disappear. 
  Gentle, grounded, and deeply human, it shows that emotional security isn’t about finding someone who never leaves — it’s about learning to stay connected to yourself when they do.

  10 Ways the World Could End -...

  Our planet is an extraordinary place, teeming with life and natural wonders. Yet, beneath the beauty and stability of our world lies an inherent fragility that we must never overlook. From the forces of nature to the actions of humanity, numerous threats exist that could drastically alter the course of life on Earth. These dangers range from natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions and asteroid impacts to man-made catastrophes like nuclear war and the consequences of climate change. While these events may seem distant or improbable, they are very real and have the potential to affect us all in profound ways. 
  To fully grasp the magnitude of these threats, it is crucial to understand how they arise and their potential consequences. Many of the dangers that could lead to the end of the world are rooted in forces that have shaped our planet for millions of years. However, modern society faces new, unique risks that previous generations never imagined. Natural disasters, though unpredictable, are part of the Earth's natural cycles, while human actions—whether through pollution, warfare, or technological mismanagement—have introduced entirely new categories of risk. As technology advances and our global interconnectedness grows, the potential for widespread disaster becomes more complex and difficult to anticipate. 
  When examining the ways the world could end, it is essential to distinguish between natural and man-made catastrophes. Natural disasters, like earthquakes, tsunamis, and pandemics, have been occurring throughout Earth's history, long before humans arrived on the scene. These events have shaped ecosystems, driven evolutionary processes, and, at times, caused mass extinctions. On the other hand, man-made catastrophes, such as nuclear warfare or the unchecked expansion of artificial intelligence, are unique to modern civilization.

  Between King Cotton and Queen...

  Between King Cotton and Queen Victoria recenters our understanding of the Civil War by framing it as a hemispheric affair, deeply influenced by the actions of a network of private parties and minor officials in the Confederacy and British territory in and around North America. John Wilkes Booth likely would not have been in a position to assassinate Abraham Lincoln, for example, without the logistical support and assistance of the pro-Confederate network in Canada. That network, to which he was personally introduced in Montreal in the fall of 1864, was hosted and facilitated by willing colonials across the hemisphere. Many of its Confederate members arrived in British North America via a long-established transportation and communications network built around British colonies, especially Bermuda and the Bahamas, whose primary purpose was running the blockade. It is difficult to overstate how essential blockade running was for the rebellion's survival, and it would have been impossible without the aid of sympathetic colonials. The operations of this informal, semiprivate network were of enormous consequence for the course of the war and its aftermath, and our understanding of the Civil War is incomplete without a deeper reckoning with the power and potential for chaos of these private networks imbued with the power of a state.
