  When you are faced with a decision, do you consider the best outcome, or do you consider your deepest values about which actions are appropriate? The Cost of Conviction contrasts these two primary strategies for making decisions: consequentialism, the former, or prioritizing one's sacred values, the latter. Steven Sloman argues that, while both modes of decision making are necessary tools for a good decision maker, people err by deploying sacred values more often than they should, especially when it comes to sociopolitical issues. In this book, Sloman provides a new understanding of today's societal ills and grounds that understanding in science. 
   
   
   
  The book begins by covering the philosophical and conceptual background of the two decision-making strategies, then takes a deep dive into the psychology of decision making. Drawing on historical and current examples of the use of the two strategies, the author provides a thorough overview of the psychology of decision making, including work on judgment, conscious and unconscious decision-making processes, the roles of emotion, and even an analysis of habit and addiction. 
   
   
   
  With its unique emphasis on sacred values, The Cost of Conviction is an eye-opening must-listen for all decision makers, especially those who wish to understand judgment, social decision making, and leadership.

  "Beyond the Equation: Philosophy Meets the Universe" explores the profound intersection of human thought and the vast cosmos. This concept delves into how philosophical inquiry complements scientific discovery, pushing the boundaries of understanding existence, reality, and our place in the universe. By combining the rigor of mathematical equations with abstract reasoning and symbolic thought, it paints a picture of humanity's quest to unravel the mysteries of the cosmos. 
  The theme reflects the synergy between logic and wonder, showcasing how the universe is not just a collection of physical laws but also a canvas for contemplation, imagination, and meaning. It invites viewers to ponder deep questions: Are we mere observers, or integral parts of this cosmic equation? How do our philosophies shape the way we interpret the universe's grandeur? 
  With imagery of glowing symbols, swirling galaxies, and the serene presence of a philosopher amidst the stars, "Beyond the Equation" encapsulates the timeless pursuit of knowledge, bridging the finite and infinite, the known and the mysterious. It is a call to embrace curiosity and view the universe as an endless dialogue between science and philosophy.

  Despite its prevalence, post-traumatic stress, PTSD, is often seen as an unbeatable lifelong mental disorder. Leading trauma doctors and neuroscientists now understand that the result of trauma is not a disorder, but rather a physical injury to the body—invisible but tangible, and most importantly, treatable. 
   
   
   
  Meet Dr. Eugene Lipov. His research and partnerships have led to an amazing discovery that all trauma has at its root a single piece of human hardware: the stellate ganglion. The symptoms of post-traumatic stress are the same for all of us, whether from childhood poverty or abandonment, the ravages of war, or the brutality of sexual assault. Dr. Lipov's pioneering procedure appears to treat injury to the stellate ganglion, relieving even the worst symptoms of PTSD—irritability, hypervigilance, insomnia, and more—in a fifteen-minute treatment. 
   
    
   
  Weaving hard science with moving human stories, The Invisible Machine reveals how this treatment was developed. It also tells the incredible story of the unlikely team, including the doctor, an artist, Special Forces leadership, and a sheriff, who are working together to change our understanding of post-traumatic stress and why it matters to society.
