The book explores the impact of the "phone-based childhood" on children's social and neurological development, highlighting issues such as sleep deprivation, attention fragmentation, addiction, loneliness, social contagion, social comparison, and perfectionism. Haidt also discusses the effects of social media on girls and boys, and calls for action to end the epidemic of mental illness and restore a more humane childhood. The book is essential for parents, teachers, schools, tech companies, and governments to take steps to protect their children and themselves from the psychological damage of a phone-based life.

Economics Reimagined: - Nature...

Rick Teller

Forget GDP, and focus instead on living standards, people’s ability to get what they want. When you do that you’ll see why, contrary to universal belief, capitalism helps the living standards of the less well-off much more than those of the rich. You’ll also see why no matter who or what the government taxes, or even if it taxes nobody, nearly the entire cost of government is paid for in the form of reduced living standards for the poor or anyone else on a tight budget. 
Despite covering serious issues that affect the lives of everyone, the book is designed to be easy and entertaining even for those who know little about economics. That’s because the laws of economics are ultimately based on universal aspects of human nature. If you are a human, you’ll get it.

Theory of Dharmic leadership :...

Devdutt Pattanaik

The theory of Dharmic Leadership is very different from the theory of Modern Management. Modern Management is based on anxiety. We have only one life to achieve greatness, and one life to save the world. There is a sense of urgency in the pursuit of happily ever after. Hence the emphasis on comparison, combat, and competition. Dharmic Leadership is more relaxed. In the Indian scheme of things, history exists before and after us. There will be always people who will be anxious, ambitious, combative, and competitive. We still need to create an ecosystem of collaboration and pleasure, turn rana-bhoomi into ranga-bhoomi, at least around us.In this chapter we will take an anthropological journey and understand how the invention of exchange established human culture, and why exchange in India took the form of yagna.
