  The Dictionary of Lost Words by Pip Williams is a historical novel set during the creation of the Oxford English Dictionary.

As Esme becomes more immersed in the world of words, she begins to collect those excluded from the dictionary—especially words related to women and their experiences. The novel explores themes of language, gender, identity, and the power of words, highlighting the often-overlooked voices in history.

  Evolutionary Psychology - A Very...

  How did our brains change over the course of evolution, and what did it mean for our ancestors? Why do we behave the way we do today? Evolutionary psychology is the only framework that allows us to fully understand the nuances of humans' motivations, emotions, cognitions, and behaviors. Our bodies have evolved over time, and so too have our brains. How we respond to situations emotionally, our thoughts, our motivations, and our behaviors have a deep heritage based on the successes of our ancestors in meeting their survival or reproductive needs.In this Very Short Introduction, Maryanne L. Fisher and T. Joel Wade unfold the intriguing idea that our brain, like every other body part, has been shaped over time by natural and sexual selection. Fisher and Wade consider the contexts in which our ancestors thrived and explore how people today think and act using an evolutionary compass. This research-oriented exploration addresses diverse topics, organized into chapters on the principles underlying this approach, survival issues, group alliances, aggression, family dynamics, and mating strategies. It touches on a broad array of topics like fears, disgust, attraction, sibling conflict, friendship, and homicide.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle explores the concept of living in the present moment as the path to spiritual enlightenment. The book delves into how identification with the mind and its incessant thinking creates a false sense of self, the ego, leading to suffering and conflict. It introduces the idea of the "pain-body," an accumulation of past emotional pain that perpetuates negativity. Tolle guides readers on how to disidentify from their minds and pain-bodies to access a state of presence, a connection with their true selves, which is beyond form and thought. The book presents practical methods for entering the present moment, including observing one's thoughts and focusing on the inner body. The teachings emphasize the importance of stillness, silence, and acceptance as ways to transcend the ego and realize one's true nature, which is interconnected with all that is.
