Sinopsis

We all want the power and motivation to create change in our lives. But how to get that in a stumbling dance of one step forward and two steps back? Negative emotions run rampant in many people’s lives today; a reality that feels like a shrink wrap of suffering. Popular fallback “solutions” of performance-based goals and tools focus on extrinsic rewards like fame, wealth, or winning. But overuse of those rewards doesn’t work for the long term and in fact weakens our confidence and motivation over time, leaving us vulnerable to failure and shame.It doesn’t have to be that way. Through three decades of researching and tracking such universal struggles to change our behavior, Dr. Kyra Bobinet unveils the way out, using novel neuroscience research on a compelling new brain area, the habenula. In this book, she reveals the habenula’s powerful role in killing our motivation and causing anxiety and depression and offers a foolproof way to escape its clutches.

    Drawing on lessons from renowned teachers such as Dr. Rick Hanson, Jack Kornfield, Tara Brach, and Eckhart Tolle, David Franklin shares his personal evolution from a hare-like, fast-paced mentality to a more mindful, turtle-like approach to life. 
    Through anecdotes, reflections, and modern interpretations of timeless fables like "The Tortoise and the Hare," Franklin explores the importance of balance in our hectic lives. He emphasizes the power of slowing down, cultivating resilience, and finding harmony between action and stillness. By blending Eastern wisdom with Western psychology, he offers practical insights and strategies for readers to integrate mindfulness, presence, and purpose into their daily routines. "How to Catch a Turtle" is more than just a self-help book; it's a call to awaken the conscious mind and reclaim agency over one's life. 
    With warmth, humor, and sincerity, Franklin encourages readers to embrace the rabbit's energetic pace and the turtle's steady perseverance, finding fulfillment and joy in the delicate dance between the two. Ultimately, "How to Catch a Turtle" guides discovering inner peace, fostering resilience, and achieving balance in an increasingly chaotic world. It invites readers to embark on their journey of self-discovery, learning how to slow down, savor life's moments, and catch their own metaphorical turtle.

    In 2016, the United States was stunned by evidence of Russian meddling in the US presidential elections. But it shouldn't have been. Subversion—domestic interference to undermine or manipulate a rival—is as old as statecraft itself. The basic idea would have been familiar to Sun Tzu, Thucydides, Elizabeth I, or Bismarck. 
     
     
     
    It came as a surprise in 2016 because the sole superpower had fallen asleep at the wheel. But what's really new? Have we entered a new age of vulnerability? To answer these questions, and to protect ourselves against future subversion, we need a clear-eyed understanding of what it is and how it works. 
     
     
     
    In A Measure Short of War, Jill Kastner and William C. Wohlforth provide just that, taking the listener on a compelling ride through the history of subversion, exploring two thousand years of mischief and manipulation to illustrate subversion's allure, its operational possibilities, and the means for fighting back against it. With vivid examples from the ancient world, the great-power rivalries of the nineteenth century, epic Cold War struggles, and more, A Measure Short of War shows how prior technological revolutions opened up new avenues for subversion, and how some democracies have been fatally weakened by foreign subverters while others have artfully defended themselves—and their democratic principles.
