  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  "Clockwork Angel" by Cassandra Clare follows the story of Tessa Gray, a sixteen-year-old orphan who travels from New York to Victorian London in search of her missing brother. Her search plunges her into a dangerous supernatural underworld where she discovers she is a Downworlder with the power to "change" into other people. As Tessa navigates this new reality, she becomes entangled with the demon-hunting Shadowhunters and their enemies. She becomes caught between the Nephilim and dark forces manipulating her and those around her. The narrative delves into themes of identity, belonging, and the complexities of good and evil, exploring how choices can have far-reaching consequences. It also questions the nature of family and the idea that people can create their own families through the bonds of friendship and shared experience.

  The science is in: being good is actually good for you. In The Biology of Kindness—the first in a trilogy on the topic of daily wellness—the science of mindfulness and the findings of biology come together to show how kindness and optimism improve overall well-being in profound, organic, and demonstrable ways. Daniel Lumera, an expert in meditation and mindfulness, and Immaculata De Vivo, a preeminent researcher in molecular epidemiology, outline a revolutionary approach to health, longevity, and quality of life—and explain the scientific evidence that supports their work. 
   
   
   
  Identifying five fundamental values and describing six essential strategies for cultivating these values, De Vivo and Lumera chart a practical course for pursuing a long, healthy, and happy life. Along the way they provide the scientific data that reveal the impact such behavior has on biology. The Biology of Kindness offers incontrovertible evidence that what is commonly ascribed to "spiritual" well-being has a clear and direct impact on physical health, helping to buffer premature aging and decrease the incidence of chronic disease. 
   
   
   
  At a time when life seems to be ruled by a desire to get "everything and immediately," Lumera observes, there is a compelling case to be made for the discipline of devotion, dedication, and passion—for the good of the body and soul.
