Summary

Presentation of the objectives of the book and the proposal to offer an alternative perspective to "The Power of Habit."Welcome to the book "Unveiling Habits: An Alternative Approach to The Power of Habit Book." In this work, we embark on a journey of exploring and questioning traditional theories about habits, presenting an alternative perspective to that proposed by the author Charles Duhigg in his acclaimed book.Since the publication of "The Power of Habit," many readers have been inspired by Duhigg's ideas about how habits shape our lives and how we can transform them to achieve success and happiness. However, while we recognize the merit of your contributions, we also believe that it is essential to question and deepen the understanding of the complex mechanisms that govern our automatic behaviors.Our approach is not simply to challenge Duhigg's work for contesting. On the contrary, we seek to expand knowledge on the subject of habits and to provide readers with a more complete and refined view of how they are formed, how they are maintained and how they can be modified.Our goal is to go beyond the simplistic idea that all habits follow a pattern of trigger-routine-reward, highlighting that habits are much more complex than this formula. We will investigate the influence of the social and cultural context on the formation of habits, as well as the importance of self-awareness for the change of entrenched behaviours.As we dive into this journey, we will seek support in recent research on neuroscience, behavioral psychology and other relevant disciplines. We will be looking for a deeper understanding of the brain connections that support habits, as well as identifying effective strategies for the adoption and maintenance of positive habits.Throughout the next chapters, we invite you to reflect with us and question the established premises without fear of exploring new horizons. Our intention is to offer a complementary rather than competitive approach to Duhigg's work, providing readers with a comprehensive and grounded view of the habits that govern our lives.We hope that, at the end of this journey, you will feel empowered to understand better the mechanics of habits and to make conscious choices that lead you to a healthier, more productive and satisfying life. Accompany us in discovering the nuances and secrets behind habits, and together we will unravel the power that they really exercise in our lives.

    An inviting and accessible new translation of Aristotle's complete Poetics—the first and best introduction to the art of writing and understanding stories 
     
     
     
    Aristotle's Poetics is the most important book ever written for writers and readers of stories—whether novels, short fiction, plays, screenplays, or nonfiction. Aristotle was the first to identify the keys to plot, character, audience perception, tragic pleasure, and dozens of other critical points of good storytelling. Despite being written more than 2,000 years ago, the Poetics remains essential reading for anyone who wants to learn how to write a captivating story—or understand how such stories work and achieve their psychological effects. Yet for all its influence, the Poetics is too little read because it comes down to us in a form that is often difficult to follow, and even the best translations are geared more to specialists than to general readers who simply want to grasp Aristotle's profound and practical insights. In How to Tell a Story, Philip Freeman presents the most accessible translation of the Poetics yet produced, making this indispensable book more engaging and useful than ever before.

    ‘He who cannot find wonder, mystery, awe, the sense of a new world and an undiscovered realm in the places by the Gray’s Inn Road will never find those secrets elsewhere.’ – Arthur Machen 
    The Grey Soul of London is an audio guided tour. Robert Kingham takes a walk across the worn and hollowed stones of the Angel and Clerkenwell districts of London in search of places that inspired the writer Arthur Machen (1863-1947). This was originally a historical guided tour commissioned for the Museum of London’s Urban Myths season in 2011. 
    The Grey Soul of London has now been rewritten and expanded for 2023, with incidental music by Rich Cochrane. Everything you need in terms of directions and instructions is contained within the audio narrative, so you can just listen and walk. If you want, you can also find a map of the walk online at minimumlabyrinth.org, plus a picture gallery illustrating some of the people, places and events mentioned. 
    ‘It is a district both devious and obscure, and I suppose that its twisting streets and unexpected squares of dusty trees will all come to ruin before they are intelligently explored.’ – Arthur Machen

    Founded by James Oglethorpe on February 12, 1733, the Georgia colony was envisioned as a unique social welfare experiment. Administered by twenty-one original trustees, the Georgia Plan offered England's "worthy poor" and persecuted Christians an opportunity to achieve financial security in the New World by exporting goods produced on small farms. Most significantly, Oglethorpe and his fellow Trustees were convinced that economic vitality could not be achieved through the exploitation of enslaved Black laborers. 
     
     
     
    James Oglethorpe, Father of Georgia uncovers how Oglethorpe's philosophical and moral evolution from slave trader to abolitionist was propelled by his intellectual relationships with two formerly enslaved Black men. Oglethorpe's unique "friendships" with Ayuba Suleiman Diallo and Olaudah Equiano, two of eighteenth-century England's most influential Black men, are little-known examples of interracial antislavery activism that breathed life into the formal abolitionist movement. 
     
     
     
    Utilizing more than two decades of meticulous research, fresh historical analysis, and compelling storytelling, Michael L. Thurmond rewrites the prehistory of abolitionism and adds an important new chapter to Georgia's origin story.
