  The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up became a #1 New York Times bestseller for simple reasons… 
  (Notice: This is a SUMMARY of Marie Kondo’s bestseller, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing) 
  Marie Kondo’s unique approach to tidying changes lives. Both her book, The Life-changing Magic of Tidying, and her Netflix series have caught the attention – and application – of millions. And those millions sing her praises. 
  How has this petite Japanese woman persuaded so many people to joyfully and eagerly do what parents have been begging their children to do for ages? Why are people posting pictures on Instagram and Facebook of neatly folded shirts and shorts, lined up in drawers like soldiers, awaiting the opportunity to be put to use by their owner? Is there any way that you, too, could implement her system in your own home and life? 
  Millions of people have learned from the woman The London Times calls “Japan’s preeminent guru of tidiness, a warrior princess in the war on clutter.” You’ll learn why you can’t seem to stay organized no matter what you’ve tried, in which order to tidy your items, and how to tidy them well (including the KonMari folding technique). You’ll come to understand how and why tidying up can revolutionize your entire life and build the ability to discern what brings you joy. 
  If you truly resonate with Marie Kondo’s concepts we implore you to buy her full audiobook once you’re done!

  The Last Commander - The Once...

  The compelling inside story of how America abandoned Afghanistan. 
   
   
   
  When America retreated from Kabul amid chaos in 2021, Lieutenant General Sami Sadat, the last commander of the army of the Afghan republic, was still fighting to the end. In this firsthand account, he reveals how his troops were starved of ammunition for two years before the final pullout, while America was glad-handing the Taliban. Although Sadat spent his early career fighting alongside the CIA to track down al-Qaeda in the mountains of the Hindu Kush, it was in conventional combat—leading from the front—that he made his name. In The Last Commander, he contends that Afghanistan could have won the war if support had continued. President Biden may have ended America's longest war, but the story does not end there. Now Sadat's birth country is plunged into barbarism, where women are beaten for showing their face and his former comrades are hunted down and killed. But Sadat is planning to fight back. It will not be easy, but this riveting personal account of combat shows that if anyone can do it, he can. 
   
   
   
  Sadat's story was told in the Emmy Award–winning documentary Retrograde. Now he tells it for himself.

  The Neurotic Character -...

  Alfred Adler

  As the 20th century drew to a close, the Austrian psychologist Alfred Adler (1870-1937) was perhaps the least known of the prominent figures of his time - in particular Sigmund Freud and Carl Gustav Jung - and yet he continues to be a figure of influence in the 21st century. His school of ‘individual psychology’ involved a holistic approach to the study of the individual, with a key focus on the way each person viewed the world, especially regarding their concerns of inferiority. This applied to both men and women in their different ways. The Neurotic Character is, as the editor of this modern translation states, 'Adler’s magnum opus - complex, profound and brilliant in its crystallised capture of the human soul gone astray.' 
   
  Written in 1911, Adler continued to expand and develop his ideas over the following decades as he assimilated experience gained from his practice. It opens with the Theoretical Part, in which he introduces ‘The Origin and Development of the Inferiority Feeling and Its Effects', as well as ‘Psychic Compensation and Its Preparation’ and ‘The Accentuated Fiction as Guiding Idea in the Neurosis’. 
   
  The second, major part of his work follows - the Practical Part. In this, Adler examines a wide range of issues, from ‘Greed and Distrust’, to the sexual causes and effects of inferiority. In the succeeding sections, he considers how suppressing everyday feelings and habits experienced by men and women in the course of their lives - issues such as impatience and dissatisfaction, cruelty, self-reproach - can all have profound effects on the individual. 
   
  The writing is clear and supported by case studies providing a strong perspective of reality. It is not surprising that, as a result, it can be seen how strongly Adlerian ideas and views have influenced the practice of psychotherapy today. And that for all the apparent dominance of Freudian and Jungian doctrine in psychological and academic circles, the work of Alfred Adler should not be underestimated. This recording presents the new translation of The Neurotic Character, commissioned and edited by the Adlerian psychotherapist, Henry Stein, who provides a useful appendix - an introduction to classical Adlerian theory and practice.

  In these informative interviews, conducted for Truthout by C. J. Polychroniou, Noam Chomsky addresses the rapid deterioration of democracy in the United States and rising tensions globally.
