  Have you ever wondered where horse milk vodka comes from? Or how to fight off a mob of Malaysian monkeys? Is it bad luck to wash cow poop off of your shoe? Travel vicariously with Sam across the Orient to find the funny but true answers. 
  Sam savors every local culture he encounters much like Conan O’Brian and the late Anthony Bourdain—embracing the people, their food, and especially their curiosities. His humor and infatuation with humanity’s diversity fuel each story. 
  Teaching in Korea and Vietnam since 2015, Sam uses his time out of the classroom to explore the rest of Asia. His five-book series, Itchy Feet Travel Tales in Asia, covers his adventures (and misadventures) in Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Russia, South Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam. 
  These stories of the sublime and the surreal will have you giggling and gawking as you follow Sam through the weird and wonderful world of the East.

  Journeys in Time: The History of...

  We take time for granted as it passes during every moment of our existence. Other things may change, but time remains constant and predictable. The past, the present, and the future exist within a harmonious, reliable, and never-changing system. Or at least that’s how it seems… 
  It was Albert Einstein who, in 1905, first theorized that time might not be quite as straightforward as that. In one of the most influential papers on physics ever published, he proposed something called “time dilatation.” This suggested that time was neither fixed nor constant and that the passage of time was related to the relative speed of the observer.  
  Long before the advent of modern science and Einstein's theory of relativity, people have contemplated time traveling, and there are still debates about the concept today. During the 20th century, new theories of the multiverse suggested that our world isn’t discrete and separate but perhaps one of an unimaginable number of other universes, separated by membranes that may be possible to see or even pass through. These ideas are difficult to grasp, but as theoretical physicist Werner Heisenberg put it succinctly, “Not only is the Universe stranger than we think, it is stranger than we can think.”  
  Despite so many popular depictions in literature and movies, it is widely assumed that nobody has built a working time machine, but ordinary people have insisted that they’ve experienced odd events during which they found themselves in another time. Some of these experiences have been reported by seemingly rational individuals, and some have involved more than one witness. The conventional view is that all these people are either deluded or mistaken, even though others have found some of these accounts strangely compelling.

  Latin American Economies offers a clear and compelling look at the economic journeys of three of the region’s most influential countries: Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. This 3-in-1 collection traces each nation’s unique path—from times of expansion and reform to periods of inflation, debt, and crisis. Through rich historical context and insightful analysis, readers gain a deeper understanding of the political choices, external pressures, and social impacts that have shaped Latin America's economic landscape. 
  In the section on Argentina, explore the rollercoaster ride of one of the world’s most fascinating economies—from early 20th-century prosperity to repeated financial crises, including hyperinflation and IMF bailouts. Brazil then takes center stage with its complex mix of natural wealth, industrialization, and ongoing struggles with inequality and corruption. Finally, Chile presents a case of contrast: a country known for its economic liberalization, relative stability, and controversial shift toward privatization following dictatorship. 
  Whether you're a student, researcher, or curious reader, this book offers a balanced and accessible overview of the forces that have driven both success and setbacks in Latin America's largest and most influential economies.

  Among the Quiet Lands

  Beyond the noise of modern travel lies a world that moves to a slower rhythm — a world still ruled by silence, patience, and grace. 
  In Among the Quiet Lands, acclaimed travel writer Reece Davis journeys to the planet’s most remote and unhurried places — from wind-battered monasteries in the Himalayas to forgotten villages deep within Patagonia’s valleys. Along the way, he meets those who have chosen to live close to the earth and far from the rush of progress. 
  Through poetic observation and vivid encounters, Davis reflects on what vanishes when the world moves too fast — and what we rediscover when we choose to linger, listen, and simply be. 
  A meditation on solitude, slowness, and the enduring beauty of the unspoiled, Among the Quiet Lands invites readers to pause — and to see stillness not as absence, but as presence.
