  Why Do We All Behave In The Way...

  Why is life like a poker game? How did a failed robbery help to explain human nature? Why are we so certain bad men will win - and yet we're so wrong? In this, the third volume of The Secrets of Life quartet, SS O'Connor once more uses his easy-going, conversational style to explain how the science of decision analysis developed, and why it has come to show us not only the reasoning behind how humans arrive at their choices in life, but why so much of the apparently bizarre behaviour of the natural world has the same hard logic to it.Instead of the confusion and chaos one might expect, O'Connor lays out how the options organisms face when they interact can actually be analysed, and how we humans then refined this process through the addition of our intelligence and language skills. Starting with the extraordinary new ways of thinking that Adam Smith opened the world's eyes to, the book progresses to the 20th century - and shows how the mathematical reasoning behind our thought processes was revealed at a time when the very future of the world was at stake. From these earliest investigations, through to the fevered disagreements of later experts, this third volume of the Secrets of Life series explains how the science of game theory illuminates the reasons for our behaviour. In particular, the book provides insights into how the interests of the individual should be balanced against those of the group, and why the mechanism of trading would extend far further into our lives than we could ever have imagined. As the story unfolds it becomes ever clearer how cooperation has evolved to be the catalyst at every level of life. It explains how it was the force that built our world, and why it would settle so deeply in our hardwiring that it's become instinctive and innate in us. Perhaps most pleasingly, the same logic also shows that the benefits of collaboration are always bound to ratchet upwards - and how this will inevitably lead humans to ever-increasing levels of moral behaviour.

  The Wounded Healer - The Pain...

  Finding meaning in trauma work, as a traumatized healer yourself. 
   
   
   
  The act of caregiving is physically exhausting and emotionally draining, yet caregivers describe it as rewarding and gratifying. Prolonged exposure to human suffering, however, is not without risks—caregivers report high rates of burnout and poor quality of life. 
   
   
   
  Many care providers believe that their feelings do not matter; that they should ignore their pain, brush off their trauma, wipe away their tears, and just "suck it up." Here, Omar Reda—a Libyan-born American psychiatrist who as an emergency physician and trauma counselor provided care for medical staff caring for victims of trauma—calls upon other healers to break free from cycles of secrecy, toxic stress, and silent suffering so they can continue to empower and inspire those in their care. 
   
   
   
  Filled with poignant first-person stories and clinical case studies, this book is an impassioned plea for psychosocial trauma care that prioritizes the health of both client and healer.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  When the Last One Fell Silent: Stories of Extinct Creatures is a haunting yet deeply human exploration of extinction—told not as dry statistics, but as a series of vivid portraits that bring lost creatures back to life through story, imagery, and reflection. From the island forests where dodos once waddled without fear, to the endless skies once blackened by passenger pigeons, to the misty rainforests where golden toads shimmered like jewels, each chapter of this book immerses readers in the world as it once was—and as it might never be again. 
  Extinction is as old as life itself, but in the last few centuries its rhythm has changed. Where once climate, asteroids, and ice shaped life and loss, today extinction bears the clear mark of one species—our own. This book moves tenderly through history, telling the stories of animals we have lost: the thylacine of Tasmania, hunted more by rumor than truth; the great auk and Steller’s sea cow, slaughtered out of utility and curiosity; the Pyrenean ibex, which briefly flickered back into life through cloning before disappearing again; the mammoths, whose heavy footfalls once trembled across frozen steppes; and the baiji dolphin, the gentle goddess of the Yangtze, drowned beneath the noise of factories and boats. 
  Each chapter does more than recount the facts of extinction. It lingers on the silences that follow. Silence of forests once filled with birds. Silence of oceans where seals no longer bark. Silence of mountains where goats no longer leap. Readers are invited not only to see the loss but to feel it—the grief of the final call, the heaviness of absence, the weight of knowing that these lives were here, and now they are not. 
  At the same time, When the Last One Fell Silent is not simply an elegy. It is also a mirror and a warning. Chapters on myths and legends show how humans carry the memory of vanished animals in stories of dragons, thunder birds, and mermaids.
