Broccoli Boot Camp - Basic Training for Parents of Selective Eaters

Keith E. Williams, Laura Seiverling

Sinopse

Broccoli Boot Camp is a comprehensive guide for parents of children who are selective or picky eaters, and can be used with children with or without special needs (e.g, autism or Down syndrome). It presents commonsense behavioral interventions to successfully expand children's diet variety and preferences for healthy foods.

The book starts with the simple premise that when children are encouraged to taste and consume tiny portions of new foods, repeatedly and with lessening resistance, they learn to accept and enjoy the foods as part of their regular diets. Real-life, compelling case studies and abundant research findings support the authors' advice on how to overcome a child's selective eating. It describes ways to increase compliance, factors to consider when choosing an intervention, and strategies to shape behavior.

Finally, five intervention plans are presented with step-by-step procedures, modifications, and tips on maximizing success. Parents can choose the intervention which works best for their family's circumstances. The book also contains forms to track data, incentives, and meals, and a behavior contract to use with older children. Broccoli Boot Camp gives parents the tools they need to promote healthy eating for their child as well as improve the family mealtime experience!

This second edition includes updated references, two new interventions plans, and an expanded discussion of nutrient deficiencies along with recommendations for preventing and treating them. Other updates include clarifications on modeling. There is also a guide for clinicians at the end of the book.

Discriminations - Achieving...

A. C. Grayling

World-renowned philosopher A. C. Grayling explores the messy politics of the 'culture wars' 
 
 
 
It seems like we can't talk about anything nowadays . .  . Whether it's war or something utterly inconsequential, the internet is primed for furor. And the results can be horrifying—from online pile ons and doxing to job loss and, in some cases, death. But how did we end up here? 
 
 
 
Nuanced and historically grounded, A. C. Grayling searches for middle ground in an otherwise incendiary debate. Looking at the history of cancellation, from Ancient Greek 'ostracism' through hemlock cups, witch trials, and the House of Un-American Activities, Discriminations is a timely examination of the state of our public culture and the chilling effect it's having on intellectual discourse.

Women and Psychedelics -...

Kathleen Harrison

This collection of short essays examines the place of women in the history of psychedelics. 
 
 
 
While some of the subjects are pioneers in their own right, the authors in this collection go beyond merely adding women to the past in psychedelic history, exploring some of the significant ways that women have contributed to psychedelic knowledge. 
 
 
 
Blending historical and anthropological approaches with a series of captivating interviews, this collection taps into women's networks around the world throughout the twentieth century. It reveals some of the sophisticated and creative ways women have influenced our understanding of psychedelics and how they will continue to protect these stories as we face our psychedelic future. Our collection intentionally moves beyond an American set of stories, teasing out networks in Latin America. This collection brings together authors from the Chacruna Institute and Chacruna Latinamérica to engage listeners in conversations that move across time and place throughout the Americas. It is the first of its kind to balance non-English contributions through translation of stories exploring different cultural contexts outside the United States, where women have contributed to this enduring history.

Attachment in the Age of Ghosting

Marcus Reed

In a world where messages vanish and connections fade without warning, emotional attachment has become both more fragile and more complex. Attachment in the Age of Ghosting explores what happens when modern dating collides with ancient survival instincts — how our nervous systems interpret silence as threat, and why anxious and avoidant patterns now play out in texts, not touch. Through psychology, neuroscience, and real-world reflection, this book guides readers to recognize their attachment style, decode emotional triggers, and learn how to communicate securely even when others disappear. 
Gentle, grounded, and deeply human, it shows that emotional security isn’t about finding someone who never leaves — it’s about learning to stay connected to yourself when they do.
