How We Think

John Dewey

Sinopse

In "How We Think," John Dewey presents a profound exploration of the process of reflective thinking, which he delineates as a crucial component of effective learning and problem-solving. Dewey's literary style is characterized by clarity and accessibility, making complex philosophical concepts approachable for a broad audience. The text situates itself within the pragmatist tradition, challenging static notions of knowledge and emphasizing the dynamic interplay between thought and experience in an increasingly complex world. Through detailed analysis and practical examples, Dewey articulates methods for improving educational practices and enhancing critical and creative thinking skills. John Dewey (1859-1952) was a pivotal figure in American philosophy and education, known for his advocacy of experiential learning and democracy in education. His extensive career as a philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer provided him with insights into the deficiencies of traditional pedagogical methods, which inform the core arguments of this work. Dewey's dedication to fostering a more interactive and engaged learning environment illuminated the necessity for a paradigm shift in both educational practices and the cultivation of intellectual habits. "How We Think" is an essential read for educators, students, and anyone interested in the cognitive processes underlying effective learning. Dewey's insightful analysis not only enhances one's understanding of thinking as a skill but also serves as a manifesto for a more thoughtful and engaged society. This book is an invaluable resource for developing the reflective skills needed in both personal and professional contexts.

Inside ADHD - An Internal Family...

PsyD Carol Shilliday

As an adult with ADHD, you've probably spent a lifetime trying to prove you're capable. You may work twice as hard to keep up, apologize for being "too much," or pretend you're fine when you're really overwhelmed. Growing up with ADHD often means internalizing years of criticism, misunderstanding, and shame. Over time, those messages can become part of how you see yourself. So how can you heal the echoes of these old wounds, trust your own mind, and feel safe being exactly who you are?

Inside ADHD offers a validating, neuroaffirming approach to understanding and healing yourself using internal family systems (IFS). Rather than trying to "fix" ADHD, psychologist Carol Shilliday shows how years of stigma can create protective parts that overwork, over plan, shut down, or self-criticize. With practical insights, she guides you to meet those parts with compassion and invite your calm, confident Self to lead.

Inside, you'll learn how to: understand the roots of self-criticism, perfectionism, and shame; heal emotional wounds and reconnect with your authentic Self; discover strengths in your ADHD brain—and build systems that fit you; and develop self-compassion, flexibility, and inner calm in daily life
You'll also learn to recognize the protective "manager" and "firefighter" parts shaped by years of criticism, release perfectionism and self-judgment, and uncover the creativity, persistence, and intuition within your ADHD wiring. Grounded in practical IFS tools, reflection prompts, and real-life experience, Inside ADHD helps you move beyond self-blame and toward wholeness, self-awareness, and self-acceptance.

Drake Savage

What if you could spot lies, flip power dynamics in any room, and understand exactly how others are trying to influence you? 
Here’s the uncomfortable truth: You’re already being manipulated—every day, by people who know what they’re doing. The only question is whether you’re aware of it. 
Inside, you’ll learn how to:Spot a manipulator before they even speakRead hidden emotions through micro-expressions and body languageRecognize the three dark personality types that use charm as a weaponUnderstand how “undetectable” mind control really works—and why it’s more common than you thinkUse hypnosis techniques in normal conversation to guide decisions and feelingsMaster the real structure of persuasion—and how to resist it or use itBreak emotional loops others use to make you doubt your instinctsDisarm guilt trips, gaslighting, projection, and other everyday control tacticsBuild a mental “firewall” to protect your autonomyEthically influence others with subtlety and impact 
If you’re tired of second-guessing people’s motives… 
If you’re done being the one who gets blindsided in conversations or manipulated in subtle ways you can’t prove… 
It’s time to learn the tools. And start using them.Take control of your attention, your reactions, and your mind. Because if you don’t… someone else already is.
