Sinopse

Peer Influence explores the profound impact of social circles on addictive behaviors. Often, individual struggles with addiction are viewed in isolation, but this book reveals how peer groups actively shape these tendencies through subtle mechanisms like social learning and conformity. For example, individuals may unconsciously mirror the habits of their peers to fit in, highlighting how social norms can be a powerful, yet often overlooked, influence.

 
The book systematically examines how peer influence impacts addiction, starting with fundamental concepts of social conformity and identity formation. It then progresses to explore how these influences play out in different social contexts, from family to online communities. Importantly, it distinguishes between peer groups that either promote or protect against addictive behaviors.

 
Finally, the book offers practical, evidence-based intervention strategies that harness positive peer dynamics for prevention and recovery. By understanding that social circles aren't just passive backgrounds, but active agents, Peer Influence argues for more effective prevention and intervention programs. This approach shifts the focus from individual blame toward systemic solutions, acknowledging the bidirectional nature of peer influence where individuals both shape and are shaped by their social environments.

    Democracy - A Guided Tour

    In this short, accessible book, leading democratic theorist Jason Brennan guides listeners through the evolution of the concept of democracy and actual democratic practice over time to help them understand the foundations of this longstanding and yet newly fragile political system. 
     
     
     
    In his wide-ranging tour of the concept, Brennan will examine what democracy meant to the Greeks who first developed the concept before examining how it changed throughout European and later Western history. This will open up rich and perplexing questions. Over time, democracy shifted from being a fringe idea to the gold standard of political institutions: how did this change occur? How did the question of who counts as part of the ruling "people" change over time? As monarchies were replaced with democracies, what did theorists think the promises and perils of republican democracy were? How did actual democratic practice change the debates? What have we learned about how democracy functions—and in some cases, doesn't function—and what does this mean for future philosophical or empirical work? Brennan provides a curated, guided tour of the most important arguments for and against democracy, looking through the core values of stability, virtue, wisdom, freedom, and equality. The goal is to help listeners understand what is really at stake in democracy and its alternatives.

    VOLUME 3 OF KAT WARD'S SENSATIONAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY! 
    in this much-anticipated third volume, Kat recounts her early-mid teen years. Still traumatised by her early experiences, she was however not entirely without that sense of hope that is the inalienable property of youth. 
    Now at Duncroft Approved School for “emotionally disturbed girls”, her life had come to resemble that of a prisoner; a good day was a bad one and a bad day was horrific. A pattern interrupted only by the periodic visits of a certain creepy old man in a shiny tracksuit, with a pocket full of a cigars and a caravan full of demands. 
    There were Rolls-Royce trips to London. There were jaunts to TV studios. And, of course, for Kat, as with most of the girls, there were dreams of a brighter future. But despite all the promises, there was simply no way out. For at almost every turn, another nefarious character was waiting to take advantage of the girls that no-one would believe anyway. 
    Now you can read her full story here. No punches pulled; no stone left unturned. Just the truth, committed to paper over many years, in the hope that it might help inspire the brave, enlighten the misled and heal the abused… 
    DISCLAIMER: This is a true story of child abuse. Reader discretion is advised.

    Irish author Bram Stoker is considered one of the masters of Gothic horror, in large part due to his creation of one of modern culture's most enduring villains, Count Dracula. Making a life first in civil service and then in the theater, Stoker drew upon his personal experiences, his deepest fears, and the larger-than-life people in his inner circle to create his timeless masterpiece, cementing his own immortality in the process. 
    It is unlikely that Stoker could have conceived, even in his wildest dreams, what an impact his undying villain would have on the world a century after his death. It served as inspiration time and again for countless adaptations in art, print, on stage, and on screen, dating back to the very beginnings of cinema. Since its initial publication, Dracula has been translated into every major language and studied by hundreds of writers, critics, and historians. In over 120 years, it has never been out of print.
