    Despite their cultural influence, the grand narrative of the dinosaur story is rarely told. Most of us have heard of Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus, but these two dinosaurs lived more than eighty million years apart—a greater span of time than the entire post-T. rex history of the planet. Furthermore, we often know even less about the environments these animals lived in. 
     
     
     
    The Shortest History of the Dinosaurs tells the full story, a 230-million-year epic of small beginnings, spectacular golden periods, and eventual global domination—before an unthinkable asteroid event brought everything to a screeching halt. We learn that, for millions of years in the Triassic, dinosaurs were dog-sized—but slowly developing evolutionary traits like feathers and warm-bloodedness. In the Jurassic Period, these traits—and others like laying eggs and growing specialized air sacs—led to an era of rapid growth in dinosaur population and physical size. As Pangea continued to break apart, during the Cretaceous Period, dinosaurs traversed the globe, adapting to air and water—before a six-mile-wide asteroid hit Central America. 
     
     
     
    Using fossil discoveries and fresh understandings of genetics and evolution, author Riley Black reveals the startling relationships dinosaurs shared with each other, the land they lived on, other animal species, and the earth.

Healing Psychedelics demystifies the process and emphasizes safety and effectiveness, making it an essential guide for both new explorers and seasoned practitioners.” —Jessika Lagarde, psychedelic-assisted medicine facilitator, integration coach, and cofounder of Women On Psychedelics   Psychedelics are showing great promise as a new way to heal trauma and improve emotional wellness. Studies reveal that they can be effective in reducing PTSD, anxiety, and depression symptoms, even in cases that are resistant to other treatments. Stover offers a comprehensive and informative guide for both professionals and patients who are interested in learning more about psychedelic-assisted therapy.   Each chapter reveals a vignette taken directly from the psychedelic space that shows the medicines (medium and macro-doses of MDMA, psilocybin, ketamine, and cannabis), why they were chosen, and the process used for transformation during the sessions. Stover weaves in wisdom from indigenous and Mexican healers and practitioners with application exercises, writing prompts, and journal entries to deepen the reader’s healing journey. These exercises are applicable to all readers, whether you are working on your own or with a therapist.  Healing Psychedelics shows the complete process, enabling the reader to safely unlock the power of psychedelics to heal trauma and transform their life for a brighter future.
