  In RNJesus They Trust: Game Design, Your Time & Your Luck is a witty, sharp-eyed exploration of randomness in modern gaming — and how it blesses, tests, or exploits the players who kneel before it. From the ecstatic thrill of a rare drop to the soul-crushing grind of gacha pulls, game developers have turned RNG (random number generation) into a design pillar that fuels excitement and monetization. But where does randomness stop being fun and start wasting your time — or draining your wallet? This book unpacks that question across genres: MMOs, gacha games, roguelikes, shooters, and strategy titles. It blends game design insight with psychological analysis and a dash of sacred satire, portraying “RNJesus” as the unpredictable deity we’ve all prayed to at 2 AM. Whether you're a game designer, critic, or lifelong gamer tired of losing to the dice, this book offers clarity, laughter, and empowerment. Learn to recognize fair design, spot exploitative patterns, and advocate for gaming systems that respect your time — and your luck.

  "One of the best new Schizophrenia books" - BookAuthority 
  ★★★★★ Readers' Favorite Book Review. 
  Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a schizophrenic?Beautifully written with raw and candid reflections on the harrowing reality of living with severe schizophrenia, Into the Darkness invites you to join author Darren Smith as he reveals the heart-wrenching reality of being unable to tell real life from psychosis. 
  In this intimate tell-all memoir, Darren takes readers on an unparalleled journey into his disorder, shining a light on the confusion, delusional thoughts, tormenting voices, and persistent paranoia that defined decades of his life—from his troubled childhood when he experienced his very first delusion to struggling to survive as an adult in a frightening world. 
  And as his grip on reality grows increasingly fragile, Darren recounts the self-destructive coping mechanisms that pushed him deeper down the rabbit hole and towards the dreadful nightmare realm of a full-fledged schizophrenic break. 
  But amid the darkness of adolescent bullying, a painful parental divorce, and an adulthood filled with unrelenting hallucinations, Darren reveals how he fought a years-long battle and triumphed over insurmountable challenges, unlocking a wellspring of hope that helped him achieve victory over his inner demons and grow into the person he is today. 
  As a must-read for fellow sufferers of schizophrenia, as well as for therapists and mental health professionals, Into the Darkness is equal parts shocking and illuminating. This book draws you into not only Darren’s life, but also the lives of the friends and family who stuck with him, giving readers a unique and thought-provoking inside view of this multifaceted condition.

  In the Herbarium - The Hidden...

  Maura C. Flannery

  Collections of preserved plant specimens, known as herbaria, have existed for nearly five centuries. These pressed and labeled plants have been essential resources for scientists, allowing them to describe and differentiate species and to document and research plant changes and biodiversity over time—including changes related to climate. 
   
   
   
  Maura C. Flannery tells the history of herbaria, from the earliest collections belonging to such advocates of the technique as sixteenth-century botanist Luca Ghini, to the collections of poets, politicians, and painters, and to the digitization of these precious specimens today. She charts the growth of herbaria during the Age of Exploration, the development of classification systems to organize the collections, and herbaria's indispensable role in the tracking of climate change and molecular evolution. Herbaria also have historical, aesthetic, cultural, and ethnobotanical value—these preserved plants can be linked to the Indigenous peoples who used them, the collectors who sought them out, and the scientists who studied them. 
   
   
   
  This book testifies to the central role of herbaria in the history of plant study and to their continued value, not only to biologists but to entirely new users as well: gardeners, artists, students, and citizen-scientists.

  It's a prime ingredient in countless substances from cereal to soup, from cola to coffee. Consumed at the rate of one hundred pounds for every American every year, it's as addictive as nicotine -- and as poisonous. It's sugar. And "Sugar Blues", inspired by the crusade of Hollywood legend Gloria Swanson, is the classic, bestselling expose that unmasks our generation's greatest medical killer and shows how a revitalizing, sugar-free diet can not only change lives, but quite possibly save them.
