    The mixture of hypnosis and social anxiety disorder is part of a broader movement that moves from conventional medicine to self-help for many conditions.  
    Given that social anxiety can be permanently removed from the life of the health industry, it is only reasonable for the patients to pursue a second view from outside the medical area-i.e. themselves.  
    For many years hypnosis has been used in many therapeutic forms of treatment, including anxiety, for a variety of illnesses and conditions. Online self-help guides mainly drive the current trend towards self-hypnosis. 
    Since the most common concerns are the fears of being judged by others, one of the main aims of conventional drugs and therapy is to relax a patient's mind and body to the degree that obsessive thought can be managed. Calming of the mind and body is the embodiment of the hypnotic approach for the proponents of the association of hypnosis and social anxiety disorder. With many of the internet self-hypnosis guides, people with social anxiety can now find much of their cure on their schedule and in their way. 
    Do you feel anxious around crowds? Have a hard time dealing with meeting new people? With the help of Motivational Hypnotherapy, you can overcome social anxiety and create social confidence. It's time to let your true self shine!

    The Lady and Her Monsters by Roseanne Motillo brings to life the fascinating times, startling science, and real-life horrors behind Mary Shelley's gothic masterpiece, Frankenstein. 
    Montillo recounts how—at the intersection of the Romantic Age and the Industrial Revolution—Shelley's Victor Frankenstein was inspired by actual scientists of the period: curious and daring iconoclasts who were obsessed with the inner workings of the human body and how it might be reanimated after death. 
    With true-life tales of grave robbers, ghoulish experiments, and the ultimate in macabre research—human reanimation—The Lady and Her Monsters is a brilliant exploration of the creation of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley's horror classic.

    Dublin's teeming slums, long regarded as the worst in Europe, were teetering on the brink of structural and sanitary public catastrophe during the early twentieth century. To tackle the crisis, Herbert Simms was appointed the city's first housing architect. During a sixteen-year period, from 1932 until 1948, Simms and his team planned, commissioned and built an astounding 17,000 homes –some as inner-city flat complexes, others as family houses in newly-created suburbs such as Crumlin and Cabra.
    Like the city's acclaimed Georgian squares, the Simms-designed Corporation flats in particular have stood the test of time, injecting a touch of art deco and modernist glamour to neglected neighbourhoods. This comprehensive guide to the Simms buildings also highlights the many struggles with politicians and bureaucrats Simms and his staff experienced as they did their best to build well-designed, affordable housing for the people of Dublin.

    From TikTok and Fortnite to Grindr and Facebook, Aynne Kokas delivers an urgent look into the technology firms that gather our data, and how the Chinese government is capitalizing on this data flow for political gain.In Trafficking Data, Aynne Kokas looks at how technology firms in the two largest economies in the world, the United States and China, have exploited government policy (and the lack thereof) to gather information on citizens, putting US national security at risk. Kokas argues that US government leadership failures, Silicon Valley's disruption fetish, and Wall Street's addiction to growth have fueled China's technological goldrush. In turn, American complacency yields an unprecedented opportunity for Chinese firms to gather data in the United States and quietly send it back to China, and by extension, to the Chinese government. Drawing on years of fieldwork in the US and China and a large trove of corporate and policy documents, Trafficking Data explains how China is fast becoming the global leader in internet governance and policy, and thus of the data that defines our public and private lives.
