  Not long ago, it was thought that the brain you were born with was the brain you would die with, and that the brain cells you had at birth were the most you would ever possess. Your brain was thought to be hardwired to function in predetermined ways. It turns out that's not true. Your brain is not hardwired; it's "softwired" by experience. This book shows you how you can rewire parts of the brain to feel more positive about your life, remain calm during stressful times, and improve your social relationships. 
   
   
   
  Written by a leader in the field of Brain-Based Therapy, it teaches you how to activate the parts of your brain that have been underactivated and calm down those areas that have been hyperactivated, so that you feel positive about your life and remain calm during stressful times. You will also learn to improve your memory, boost your mood, have better relationships, and get a good night's sleep.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  “Pandemics Through Time: The History That Shaped Humanity” is a clear, human story of how diseases and people have shaped each other—from the first crowded cities to the age of jet travel and beyond. Blending vivid history with plain explanations of science, it shows how outbreaks begin, how they spread, how societies respond, and how each crisis leaves behind new tools, new ideas, and new responsibilities. 
  The journey starts in the ancient world, where the Plague of Athens revealed how war and crowding turn illness into disaster, and moves through the Justinianic Plague, where rats, fleas, grain ships, and empire combined to send buboes and fear across continents. It then meets the Black Death, the great turning point that reordered labor, faith, and power in Europe, and taught hard lessons about quarantine, care, and the costs of blame. 
  Crossing oceans, the book shows how smallpox and measles traveled with conquest during the Columbian Exchange, and how Indigenous and African knowledge, along with early variolation and vaccination, began a long fight back. In the nineteenth century, cholera raced through booming cities and forced a revolution in sewers, water, and the birth of epidemiology—John Snow’s map, Joseph Bazalgette’s pipelines, and the first international health rules. Tuberculosis then becomes the mirror of the Industrial Age, revealing how housing, wages, sunlight, and stigma shape a “social disease,” and how sanatoria, X‑rays, and later antibiotics changed fate without erasing inequality.

  Henry David Thoreau: On The Duty...

  "That government is best which governs least" is the famous opening line of this essay. The slavery crisis inflamed New England in the 1840s and 1850s. The environment became especially tense after the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. A lifelong abolitionist, Thoreau delivered an impassioned speech which would later become Civil Disobedience in 1848, just months after leaving Walden Pond. The speech dealt with slavery, but at the same time excoriated American imperialism, particularly the Mexican–American War. Thoreau asserts that because governments are typically more harmful than helpful, they therefore cannot be justified. Democracy is no cure for this, as majorities simply by virtue of being majorities do not also gain the virtues of wisdom and justice. The judgment of an individual's conscience is not necessarily inferior to the decisions of a political body or majority, and so "[i]t is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right. The only obligation which I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think right.... Law never made men a whit more just; and, by means of their respect for it, even the well-disposed are daily made the agents of injustice." He adds, "I cannot for an instant recognize as my government [that] which is the slave's government also.

  James Riley, author of the cult hit The Bad Trip: Dark Omens, New Worlds and the End of the Sixties, returns with another incisive and thought-provoking cultural history, turning his trenchant eye to the wellness industry that emerged in the 1970s.
  
  Concepts such as wellness and self-care may feel like distinctly twenty-first century ideas, but they first gained traction as part of the New Age health movements that began to flourish in the wake of the 1960s. Riley dives into this strange and hypnotic world of panoramic coastal retreats and darkened floatation tanks, blending a page-turning narrative with illuminating explorations of the era's music, film, art and literature.
  Well Beings delves deep into the mind of the seventies - its popular culture, its radical philosophies, its approach to health and its sense of social crisis. It tells the story of what was sought, what was found and how these explorations helped the 'Me Decade' find itself. In so doing, it questions what good health means today and reveals what the seventies can teach us about the strange art of being well.
