  What if true leadership begins with the courage to look inward? 
  In Alcibiades I, Plato stages a riveting dialogue between Socrates and the young, glory-seeking Alcibiades. As the young man prepares to enter politics and shape the fate of Athens, Socrates urges him to reflect on a deeper question: How can you lead others if you have not come to know yourself? 
  This modernized audiobook version brings clarity and intensity to one of Plato’s most inspiring philosophical encounters—where ambition meets wisdom and the path to greatness is revealed to lie within. 
  What you’ll discover inside: 
  •	A powerful dialogue on self-awareness as the foundation of leadership and justice 
  •	Alcibiades’ internal struggle between ego and ethics, fame and virtue 
  •	Socratic reasoning at its sharpest, uncovering truth through self-examination 
  •	A clear, accessible translation ideal for personal development and political thought 
  Whether you’re on a journey of growth or exploring the foundations of wise rule, Alcibiades I offers timeless insight for mastering the self before mastering the world.

  What Is It Like to Be an Addict?...

  Owen Flanagan, an acclaimed philosopher of mind and ethics, offers a state-of-the-art assessment of addiction science and proposes a new ecumenical model for understanding and explaining substance addiction. 
   
   
   
  Flanagan has firsthand knowledge of what it is like to be an addict. That experience informs this important and novel work. He pairs the sciences that study addiction with a sophisticated view of the consciousness-brain/body relation to make his core argument: that substance addictions comprise a heterogeneous set of "psychobiosocial" behavioral disorders. He explains that substance addictions do not have one set of causes, such as self-medication or social dislocation, and they do not have one neural profile, such as a dysfunction in dopamine system. 
   
   
   
  Flanagan explores the ways addicts sensibly insist on their own responsibility to undo addiction, as well as ways in which shame for addiction can be leveraged into healing. He insists on the collective shame we all bear for our indifference to many of the psychological and social causes of addiction and explores the implications of this new integrated paradigm for practices of harm reduction and treatment. Flanagan's powerful new book upends longstanding conventional thinking and points the way to new ways of understanding and treating addiction.

  The Lost Family - How DNA...

  “A fascinating exploration of the mysteries ignited by DNA genealogy testing—from the intensely personal and concrete to the existential and unsolvable.” —Tana French, New York Times–bestselling author  
   
  You swab your cheek or spit in a vial, then send it away to a lab somewhere. Weeks later you get a report that might tell you where your ancestors came from or if you carry certain genetic risks. Or, the report could reveal a long-buried family secret that upends your entire sense of identity. Soon a lark becomes an obsession, a relentless drive to find answers to questions at the core of your being, like “Who am I?” and “Where did I come from?” Welcome to the age of home genetic testing. 
   
  In The Lost Family, journalist Libby Copeland investigates what happens when we embark on a vast social experiment with little understanding of the ramifications. She explores the culture of genealogy buffs, the science of DNA, and the business of companies like Ancestry and 23andMe, all while tracing the story of one woman, her unusual results, and a relentless methodical drive for answers that becomes a thoroughly modern genetic detective story. Gripping and masterfully told, The Lost Family is a spectacular book on a big, timely subject. 
   
  “An urgently necessary, powerful book that addresses one of the most complex social and bioethical issues of our time.” —Dani Shapiro, New York Times–bestselling author 
   
  “Before you spit in that vial, read this book.” —The New York Times Book Review 
   
  “Impeccably researched . . . up-to-the-minute science meets the philosophy of identity in a poignant, engaging debut.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

  Reenactments - Break the...

  Tony Iezzi Ph.D., Melanie P....

  You keep having the same argument. Making the same choice. Reacting the same way, even when you know better. You've read the books. Maybe you've been to therapy. But the patterns keep showing up: at work, in relationships, in the quiet moments when something small sets off something big. 
  There's a reason for that, and it has a name. 
  Reenactments are the brain-body-behavior patterns you developed in response to past experiences, both traumatic and ordinary. They run on autopilot. They shape how you interpret a comment from your partner, a decision at work, or a conflict you can't seem to walk away from. And until you can see them clearly, they keep you stuck. 
  Clinical psychologists Dr. Tony Iezzi and Dr. Melanie P. Duckworth spent 35 years treating patients with complex trauma, chronic pain, and stress-related conditions in hospital and university settings. They watched the same thing happen again and again: people kept repeating patterns they couldn't explain, even after successful treatment. That observation became the foundation of a new clinical framework, one they refined with real patients before writing this book. 
  In this book, you will: 
  Identify the specific reenactment themes (abandonment, control, shame, betrayal, and dozens more) driving your reactions 
  Use the Reenactment Decision Matrix to evaluate your choices in real time: approach, avoid, act, or pause 
  Work through a five-step process to break a reenactment pattern the next time it shows up 
  Build a personal plan for lasting change that goes beyond insight and into action 
  This is not another book that tells you to "just be more mindful." It gives you a concrete, step-by-step system grounded in clinical evidence and tested with real people in real crisis. The case examples are drawn from three decades of frontline work, not hypotheticals. 
  Reenactments is for anyone who is tired of knowing what's wrong but not knowing how to do something different. Get unstuck. Do different, be different.
