Sinossi

Silk Spinning Craft explores the rich history and cultural significance of home-based silk production in Asia. The book delves into the world of Asian heritage by examining traditional silk production techniques, highlighting how this craft has played a vital role in family tradition and cultural preservation. Readers will discover how silk production, rooted in ancient trade routes, became a cornerstone of economic sustainability for many families. This book uniquely blends historical insights with practical craft knowledge, offering a comprehensive look at textile history through an ethnographic lens.

 
Beginning with the origins of silk and its spread across Asia, the book progresses to explore specific silk production techniques and the social dynamics within silk-spinning families. It also addresses modern challenges faced by these communities. The approach emphasizes the human element of silk production, drawing on historical documents, oral histories, and ethnographic studies to paint a nuanced picture. By understanding the resilience and ingenuity of these families, readers gain a deeper appreciation for this historical craft and its ongoing relevance.

    The Unindexed Mind: Footnotes from the Storm is the follow-up to the original chaos—part journal, part philosophy, part stand-up set written in the eye of a hurricane. This isn't self-help. It's self-interrogation. These are rants, reflections, and stories collected from the trenches of working-class America and the cluttered corners of a mind that refuses to be simplified. From conspiracy logic to retail breakdowns, from profound loneliness to sudden laughter in the face of it—this is not a polished manifesto. It's a footnote collection from a storm you didn't know you were in. If you're tired of curated wisdom and sanitized thinking, step inside. This book won't save you. But it might help you feel a little less insane.

    Feeling Is The Secret is Neville’s classic on why emotion is the “seal” that impresses the subconscious. He explains that what you feel to be true, especially as you fall asleep, hardens into fact. The book teaches you to generate the feeling of the wish fulfilled, relax the body, and let the mind accept the new reality as natural. It’s short, focused, and intensely practical.
    
    Feeling as the key to impressing the subconscious
    “Wish fulfilled” as a lived inner state
    Sleep-state practice (SATS) for assumption
    Simple, repeatable technique for daily use

    If you think you know what mental health during and after pregnancy looks like, Persevered: A Maternal Mental Health Memoir will make you reconsider. This book is a raw personal account of surviving the darkest moments of new motherhood while juggling high expectations at home and at work. 
    Zivin takes the listener on an intimate and eye-opening journey that weaves together her perinatal medical records, journal entries, research, and imperfect memories. The story unfolds across hospital rooms, the author's home, and the university where she works, highlighting the complexity of holding on to one's identity when everything feels uncertain. Zivin writes with striking honesty about the confusion, guilt, and isolation that so many mothers experience alone but rarely admit to others. 
    Persevered moves beyond one woman's survival, breaking the silence that still surrounds maternal mental health. Zivin’s story reminds us that reaching out, sharing our experiences, and demanding better support can make a difference, not just for mothers but for families and communities. This memoir is for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed, anyone who has supported a loved one through challenging times, or anyone who believes that honest storytelling can spark real change.

    A gripping political history of Kurdish Iraq told through the extraordinary rags-to-riches story of a childhood refugee. Reviewers call it "beautifully written," "riveting," and "innovative." 
    In the Iran-Iraq war of the 1980s, Iraqi president Saddam Hussein used chemical weapons against his own people, the Iraqi Kurds. Five thousand people died in what became known as the Halabja Massacre, one of the worst chemical attacks against civilians in history. Nicole F. Watts, a former journalist and now professor of political science, has spent over a decade researching the struggles of the Kurdish people in Iraq, and in vivid, lyrical prose, she tells their story through the eyes of Peshawa, a young Muslim Kurd whose family barely survived the bombing and then fled for their lives. Republic of Dreams is a riveting portrait of Iraqi Kurdistan as its people weather Hussein’s genocidal campaign against the Kurds and the US invasion of Iraq -- only to face internal struggles between pro-democracy activists and political elites determined to hang onto power.  
    Throughout the book, the thread of Peshawa’s story immerses readers in the everyday and extraordinary world of Iraqi Kurds between the late 1980s and 2022, exploring the meaning of home and dislocation in the wake of war and genocide. Based on over a hundred in-depth interviews with Iraqi Kurdish activists, journalists, elected officials, and community organizers, and hundreds of hours of conversations with Peshawa and his family, Republic of Dreams brings to vivid life the story of modern Kurdistan, and the Kurdish national dream to have their own homeland.
