  The Nature of the Beast

  Does your dog get sad when you leave for the day? Does your cat purr because she loves you? Do bears attack when they’re angry? You can’t very well ask them.  
   
  In fact, scientists haven’t been able to reach a consensus on whether animals even have emotions like humans do, let alone how to study them. Yet studies of animal emotion are critical for understanding human emotion and mental illness. 
   
  In The Nature of the Beast, pioneering neuroscientist David J. Anderson describes a new approach to solving this problem. He and his colleagues have figured out how to study the brain activity of animals as they navigate real-life scenarios, like  
  fleeing a predator or competing for a mate. His research has revolutionized what we know about animal fear and aggression. Here, he explains what studying emotions and related internal brain states in animals can teach us about human  
  behavior, offering new insights into why isolation makes us more aggressive, how sex and violence connect, and whether there’s a link between aggression and mental illness. 
   
  Full of fascinating stories, The Nature of the Beast reconceptualizes how the brain regulates emotions—and explains why we have them at all.

  "Modern Man in Search of a Soul" by Carl Gustav Jung is a seminal work that delves into the complexities of the human psyche and the challenges faced by individuals in the modern world. Jung, one of the most influential figures in the field of psychology, explores various aspects of the human experience, including dreams, religion, art, and the unconscious mind.  In this insightful book, Jung argues that modern society has led to a fragmentation of the human psyche, resulting in feelings of disconnection and alienation. He examines the impact of cultural and societal forces on the individual, as well as the importance of introspection and self-discovery in achieving wholeness and fulfillment.  Drawing on his extensive knowledge of mythology, philosophy, and anthropology, Jung offers profound insights into the nature of the soul and its journey towards individuation. He explores the role of symbolism and archetypes in the unconscious, shedding light on the deeper layers of the human psyche.  Through a series of essays and lectures, Jung invites readers to embark on a journey of self-exploration and inner transformation. He challenges conventional wisdom and offers alternative perspectives on issues such as spirituality, creativity, and the quest for meaning.  "Modern Man in Search of a Soul" is a thought-provoking and enlightening exploration of the human condition, offering valuable insights for individuals seeking to navigate the complexities of modern life and find deeper meaning and purpose in their existence.

  Knowing what the Bible says about fear doesn’t always help us feel less anxious. Prayer does not always help either. This book explores the spiritual practices and scriptures that can counteract how anxiety works in the brain. When facing anxiety, some forms of prayer are more helpful than others for each person. This is true both spiritually and psychologically. But here’s help in discerning which practices are most useful in dealing with immediate anxiety, other practices for dealing with root causes, and further suggestions that promote long-term freedom from anxiety’s debilitating effects. These practices can deepen our relationship with God and help reduce anxiety at the same time. Anxiety Transformed: Prayer that Brings Enduring Change brings together insights from spiritual formation, psychotherapy, and neuroscience, as well as the author's personal journey with God through periods of anxiety. These concepts are integrated into a model of life-changing spiritual and psychological transformation.
