    This is a combination of a series of books. 15 short books, to be exact, which are divided into the following topics: 
      
    Topic 1: Have you ever wondered what the difference is between Bipolar Disorder and narcissism? 
      
    If you have, this book is perfect for you. The two disorders are elaborately described and summarized. Symptoms, causes, and solutions are provided. 
    Topic 2: Sometimes, when people are diagnosed with bipolar disorder, the diagnosis is wrong. In some cases, the condition is mistaken for borderline personality disorder, or the main essence of the disorder is still missing. We will investigate this further, as well as some of the criteria that a diagnosis like that has to meet. 
      
    Topic 3: Many people have psychological issues. Some even have something we call “traumas,” either from their childhood or some earlier events in their adulthood years. Whatever we suffer from, there are usually solutions that help us progress and cope with the problems we face. 
    One of those solutions could be cognitive behavioral therapy. This kind of therapy has been tested and has proven to work in many cases. 
    Topic 4: What causes someone to have Borderline Personality Disorder? Well, the opinions vary, and each person’s life is different, but to point you in the right direction, we’ll discuss some patterns and common life events and traumas that can contribute to it. 
    Topic 5: Many people try to get a grasp of what goes on in the mind of a serial killer. Today, we can at least show you a limited perspective and some solid insights in the workings of their brains. 
    Ten other topics are included in this book bundle. So, I encourage you to pick it up and start listening.

    A look inside the world of “quants” and how science can (and can’t) predict financial markets: “Entertaining and enlightening” (The New York Times).   After the economic meltdown of 2008, Warren Buffett famously warned, “beware of geeks bearing formulas.” But while many of the mathematicians and software engineers on Wall Street failed when their abstractions turned ugly in practice, a special breed of physicists has a much deeper history of revolutionizing finance. Taking us from fin-de-siècle Paris to Rat Pack–era Las Vegas, from wartime government labs to Yippie communes on the Pacific coast, James Owen Weatherall shows how physicists successfully brought their science to bear on some of the thorniest problems in economics, from options pricing to bubbles.   The crisis was partly a failure of mathematical modeling. But even more, it was a failure of some very sophisticated financial institutions to think like physicists. Models—whether in science or finance—have limitations; they break down under certain conditions. And in 2008, sophisticated models fell into the hands of people who didn’t understand their purpose, and didn’t care. It was a catastrophic misuse of science. The solution, however, is not to give up on models; it’s to make them better.   This book reveals the people and ideas on the cusp of a new era in finance, from a geophysicist using a model designed for earthquakes to predict a massive stock market crash to a physicist-run hedge fund earning 2,478.6% over the course of the 1990s. Weatherall shows how an obscure idea from quantum theory might soon be used to create a far more accurate Consumer Price Index. The Physics of Wall Street will change how we think about our economic future.   “Fascinating history . . . Happily, the author has a gift for making complex concepts clear to lay readers.” —Booklist
