  Foolproof - Why Misinformation...

  From fake news to conspiracy theories, from inflammatory memes to misleading headlines, misinformation has swiftly become the defining problem of our era. The crisis threatens the integrity of our democracies, our ability to cultivate trusting relationships, even our physical and psychological well-being—yet most attempts to combat it have proven insufficient. 
   
   
   
  With remarkable clarity, Sander van der Linden explains why our brains are so vulnerable to misinformation. Like a virus, misinformation infects our minds, exploiting shortcuts in how we see and process information to alter our beliefs, modify our memories, and replicate at astonishing rates. Once the virus takes hold, it's very hard to cure. 
   
   
   
  But we aren't helpless. As van der Linden shows based on award-winning original research, we can cultivate immunity through the innovative science of "prebunking": inoculating people against false information by preemptively exposing them to a weakened dose, thus empowering them to identify and fend off its manipulative tactics. Deconstructing the characteristic techniques of conspiracies and misinformation, van der Linden gives listeners practical tools to defend themselves and others against nefarious persuasion—whether at scale or around their own dinner table.

  How can obedience and carrying out orders lead to horrific acts such as the Holocaust or the genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia, or Bosnia? For the most part, it is a mystery why obeying instructions from an authority can convince people to kill other human beings, sometimes without hesitation and with incredible cruelty. Combining social and cognitive neuroscience with real-life accounts from genocide perpetrators, this book sheds light on the process through which obedience influences cognition and behavior. Emilie Caspar, a leading expert in the field, translates this neuroscientific approach into a clear, uncomplicated explanation, even for those with no background in psychology or neuroscience. By better understanding humanity's propensity for direct orders to short-circuit our own independent decision-making, we can edge closer to effective prevention processes.

  Medical Nutrition - The Role of...

  Medical nutrition is a specialized area of healthcare that focuses on the role of diet in maintaining health and managing diseases. It combines the science of nutrition with clinical practice, emphasizing the importance of individualized dietary interventions to prevent, treat, or manage health conditions. In recent decades, the significance of medical nutrition has become increasingly recognized due to the growing understanding of the profound impact diet has on overall well-being. 
  Diet plays a pivotal role in both the prevention and management of various diseases. It is now understood that nutrition can influence the development of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and obesity. These conditions are not only prevalent globally but are also closely linked to poor dietary habits, making nutrition a key factor in reducing their burden. For individuals already living with chronic diseases, medical nutrition becomes even more critical, as it helps manage symptoms, improve quality of life, and in some cases, slow disease progression. 
  The core principle of medical nutrition is to design personalized nutrition care plans that meet the specific needs of patients. This involves taking into account factors such as age, gender, medical history, lifestyle, and specific health conditions. By using evidence-based approaches, healthcare professionals, including dietitians, doctors, and nutritionists, can guide patients toward dietary choices that support their health and recovery.
