  WAY OF CRITICAL THINKING THE -...

  In this manual you will find a series of tips and mental models to think better while avoiding the most common cognitive biases and logical fallacies, how and why we are persuaded by people and advertisements and how to make better decisions.  
    
  After reading this book, you will realize that an important percentage of the people you hang out with (or hear about) are subject to reasoning errors, but this does not depend on intelligence (or at least marginally) but on habits, partial information and how our mind has been structured during evolution but, above all, it depends on our tendency towards cognitive economy: having to decide on the basis of rational reasoning requires longer times and many resources. In order not to overload our brains and to be able to cope with such continuous requests in a reasonable time without being exhausted, we are forced to use intuition and some cognitive (heuristic) shortcuts. This way of reasoning, however, makes us more likely to choose in an associative, metaphorical and casual way, more rarely in a probabilistic way.  
  Who is this book for?  
    
  To people who want to improve their ability to argue, to those who want to know the most common cognitive biases and logical fallacies but, also, to those who want to deepen persuasion, decision making, logic and some curiosities about the human mind. This book starts from the basics and, vertically, deepens most of the topics covered.

  Excessive Control - Dominating...

  Excessive control is a form of domination in which one individual or entity seeks to regulate another’s thoughts, actions, and decisions to an unhealthy degree. While some level of structure and guidance is necessary in various aspects of life, such as in parenting, leadership, and governance, excessive control crosses the line into coercion, manipulation, and restriction of personal freedom. This type of control can occur in different settings, including personal relationships, workplaces, political systems, and even media influence. 
  At its core, excessive control is often driven by fear, insecurity, or the desire for power. Those who exert extreme control may believe that they are acting in the best interest of others, while in reality, they strip individuals of autonomy and self-determination. This behavior can manifest in different ways, such as micromanaging, imposing rigid rules, discouraging independent thinking, or using emotional, psychological, or even physical tactics to ensure compliance. Over time, the person being controlled may experience anxiety, self-doubt, and a loss of confidence in their ability to make choices. 
  In personal relationships, excessive control can take the form of possessiveness, constant monitoring, and manipulation. A controlling partner may demand to know every detail of the other person’s life, limit their interactions with others, or make decisions on their behalf. Similarly, in family settings, parents or guardians who exert too much control over their children may prevent them from developing independence, leading to long-term emotional and psychological struggles.

  'A careful, tender and arresting story that explores how we're formed by the places we think we own – I was moved by this suspenseful and delicate novel.' – Jenn Ashworth, author of Ghosted
  Two sisters, two nuclear power stations, one child caught in the middle...
  When Helen, a self-taught prepper and single mother, leaves her young son Jack with her sister for a few days so she can visit Chernobyl's Exclusion Zone, they both know the situation will be tense. Helen opposes plans for a new power station on the coast of Anglesey that will take over the family's farmland, and Jennifer works for the nuclear industry and welcomes the plans for the good of the economy.
  But blood is thicker than heavy water, and both want to reconnect somehow, with Jack perhaps the key to a new understanding of one another.
  Yet while Helen is forced to face up to childhood traumas, and her worst fears regarding nuclear disaster, during a trip that sees her caught up in political violence and trapped in Chernobyl's Exclusion Zone during the 2014 Euromaidan revolution, Jennifer too must discover that even the smallest decision can have catastrophic and long-lasting effects, both within the nuclear industry, and within the home.
  And Jack isn't like other five-year olds... as they will both discover with devastating consequences.
