  12 Habits That Damage Your Brain...

  Cognitive health is often overlooked until it begins to decline. In a world that is rapidly changing, we can easily forget how fragile our brains truly are. From the way we process information to our ability to recall memories, brain health affects every part of our daily lives. Yet, many of us unknowingly engage in habits that can damage our cognitive function over time. These seemingly harmless behaviors can lead to a range of mental health problems, including memory loss, mental fog, and even conditions like dementia. The good news is that by understanding how certain habits affect the brain, we can take steps to protect and improve our cognitive health. 
    
  The human brain is one of the most complex organs in the body. It is responsible for our thoughts, emotions, movements, and even the way we perceive the world around us. Despite its remarkable abilities, the brain is vulnerable to both internal and external factors that can have lasting consequences on its function. The habits we form daily play a crucial role in determining how well our brain performs. Even if we don’t feel immediate effects, bad habits can accumulate over time, leading to irreversible damage. 
    
  In this book, we explore twelve common habits that can harm cognitive health. These behaviors might seem harmless or even routine, but their impact on the brain can be far-reaching. From lack of sleep and chronic stress to poor dietary choices and sedentary living, many of these habits are all too familiar. However, understanding how these habits affect the brain is the first step in taking control of our mental health. Once we recognize the problem, we can implement strategies to protect our brain from further harm.

  Developing to Scale - Technology...

  The first critical book on “appropriate technology,” Developing to Scale shows how global health came to be understood as a problem to be solved with the right technical interventions. 
    
  In 1973, economist E. F. Schumacher published Small Is Beautiful, which introduced a mainstream audience to his theory of “appropriate technology”: the belief that international development projects in the Global South were most sustainable when they were small-scale, decentralized, and balanced between the traditional and the modern. His theory gained widespread appeal, as cuts to the foreign aid budget, the national interests of nations seeking greater independence, postcolonial activism, and the rise of the United States’ tech sector drove stakeholders across public and private institutions toward cheaper tools. In the ensuing decades, US foreign assistance shifted away from massive modernization projects, such as water treatment facilities, toward point-of-use technologies like village water pumps and oral rehydration salts. This transition toward the small scale had massive implications for the practice of global health. 
    
  Developing to Scale tells the history of appropriate technology in international health and development, relating the people, organizations, and events that shaped this consequential idea. Heidi Morefield examines how certain technologies have been defined as more or less “appropriate” for the Global South based on assumptions about gender, race, culture, and environment. Her study shows appropriate technology to be malleable, as different constituencies interpreted its ideas according to their own needs. She reveals how policymakers wielded this tool to both constrain aid to a scale that did not threaten Western interests and to scale the practice of global health through the development and distribution of technical interventions.
