  Bond—James Bond. In the 80s and 90s, the debonair superspy's games failed to live up to the giddy thrills of his films. That all changed when British studio Rare unleashed GoldenEye 007 in 1997. In basements and college dorms across the world, friends bumped shoulders while shooting, knifing, exploding, and slapping each other's digital faces in the Nintendo 64 game that would redefine the modern first-person shooter genre and become the most badass party game of its generation. 
   
   
    
  But GoldenEye's success was far from a sure thing. For years of development, GoldenEye's team of rookie developers were shooting in the dark with no sense of what the N64 or its controller would be like, and the game's relentless violence horrified higher-ups at squeaky clean Nintendo. As development lagged far behind the debut of the tie-in film GoldenEye, the game nearly came out an entire Bond movie too late. 
   
   
    
  Through extensive interviews with GoldenEye's creators, writer and scholar Alyse Knorr traces the story of how this unlikely licensed game reinvigorated a franchise and a genre. Learn all the stories behind how this iconic title was developed, and why GoldenEye 007 has continued to kick the living daylights out of every other Bond game since.

  The Aging Revolution - The...

  Michael J. Dowling, Charles...

  A history of aging in the United States and an innovative blueprint for revolutionizing care for older adults from Northwell Health, New York’s largest health care system. The New York Times described Dr. Robert Butler as “the man who saw old age anew.” In his 1975 book Why Survive: Being Old in America, Butler argued that for far too many people old age was “a period of quiet despair . . . and muted rage” and he set out to mitigate it. Nearly five decades since he penned his book, a devoted band of brilliant physicians and others in the healthcare field have realized at least a portion of Butler’s dream: to recognize and alleviate suffering among the aging. 
  The Aging Revolution is the story of Butler and his disciples: women and men who saw older distressed adults in hospitals and homes, and worse: being ignored by most of the medical establishment. These revolutionaries could not ignore the suffering, and they set out—individually and collectively—to create entirely new ways of caring for aging adults to ease their suffering and improve their quality and length of life. 
  This revelatory book tells a story never-before told in its entirety, recounting the one of the most significant periods of improvement in American medical history. Readers will learn about pioneering individuals, concepts, and ideas that have improved the lives of millions, including: the women who placed the spotlight on delirium and falls—major issues for older adults; the campaign to build and spread Geriatric and Palliative Care; the small bands of doctors who worked the halls of Congress to create a new program that provides primary care along with home visits from healthcare professionals; and the New York-based foundation that has devoted its mission and millions exclusively to improving care and quality of life for aging adults. 
  Today, as a result, chronic conditions that almost always accompany old age are far more manageable. Older people enjoy more options for work and professional development, for education, for leisure and travel, for sports and maintaining physical strength and mobility. For increasing numbers of Americans, life is healthier and richer in the experiences that matter most. 
  Yet, aging in America can still be a challenge and, too often, particularly for the poor, a painful struggle. The range of mental and physical well-being has almost infinite variations: ninety-year-olds running marathons; sixty-five-year-olds incapacitated by stroke. While this book celebrates the incredible progress and strides made in this field, it also highlights areas that need improvement. The authors lay out specific steps that, if implemented, could ignite the aging revolution and diminish the total volume of older adults suffering in America.

  Who among us has not experienced periods of high anxiety, persistent stress, obsessive ruminations, or recurrent intrusive thoughts? The longer these “repetitive unpleasant thoughts” (RUTs) go untreated, the greater the intensity and number of associated painful symptoms, which can lead to more serious illness. 
   
  In Calm Your Body, Heal Your Mind—drawing from the fields of neurology, psychology, basic science, social psychology, and clinical medical research—best-selling author Dr. David Hanscom explains the physiology of mental pain and presents a unique four-part “dynamic healing” program to help your brain regenerate and repair. The key is learning to regulate your nervous system by cultivating what he calls “safety physiology.” Instead of being overwhelmed by your thoughts, you can gain a greater capacity to enjoy life and live it on your own terms. 
   
  Methods and techniques include: 
  Separating from negative thoughts through mindfulness, meditation, and expressive writing.“Turning down the heat” of anger, which is hyperactivated anxiety and neuroinflammation.Softening the ego and its cognitive distortions.Nurturing creativity and joy to rewire neural circuitry. 
   
   
  With uncommon clarity and compassion, Dr. Hanscom explains the science behind these interventions and offers practical tools and an integrated plan for rewiring the brain to relieve pain. Illustrating the scientific research with case studies from his own practice, along with stories from his own recovery from “the abyss” of RUTs, Calm Your Body, Heal Your Mind offers effective strategies and tremendous hope for healing.
