  "Nearly forty years ago, Dr. Peter Silverstone was a young MD who took up a new position in psychopharmacology research at Oxford University. Since then, the field has bloomed into a spectrum of possibilities that include the use of psychedelics as a treatment for depression, addiction, PTSD, grief, and anxiety. The Promise of Psychedelics is for you—if you or someone you know has not received successful treatment despite trying several mental-health therapy programs and medication. You are not alone: one in five adults suffer mental-health issues that impact their functioning. Psychedelics such as psilocybin, ketamine, MDMA, cannabinoids, and LSD can cause profound, intense changes—not only in what we experience but how we think, how we feel, and what we do. Dr. Silverstone avoids scientific language whenever possible, so you won’t feel overwhelmed. You’ll be introduced to the most recent advances in our understanding of psychedelics: what they are, how they work, what the risks are, and which ones will transform mental-health treatment for millions of patients. You’ll gain an understanding of the complexity of the regulatory approval process and why it takes so long for some of these psychedelics to become legal for therapeutic use. You’ll walk away from The Promise of Psychedelics with a big dose of hope if you’ll pardon the pun. The good news is that we’re on the cusp of a revolution in mental health—one offering hope that many just might soon see the end of mental illness."

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Seeds of the Living Cosmos: How Life Shaped the Universe takes listeners on a breathtaking journey across space and time, exploring the profound interplay between life and the cosmos. From the resilient extremophiles that thrive in Earth's harshest environments to the cosmic forces that seed planets with the building blocks of life, this audiobook reveals that life is not just a product of the universe - it may be a guiding thread woven into its very fabric. 
  Challenging the notion that life is rare or confined to Earth, the author examines the cosmic blueprints behind star and planet formation, the hidden mechanisms that allow life to flourish in extreme conditions, and the subtle patterns in physics that suggest the universe itself may operate as a living system. Thought-provoking, scientifically rich, and profoundly philosophical, this work invites listeners to reconsider the origin of life, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, and humanity’s place in a living cosmos. 
  With its forward-looking exploration of the future of astrobiology and the continuing quest to find life beyond our planet, Seeds of the Living Cosmos is both a celebration of discovery and a call to expand our understanding of the universe as an interconnected, living system.

  "Astrophysics and High Energy Physics – The Extremes of the Universe" explores the most extreme phenomena in the cosmos, delving into the physics of stars, high-energy particles, and the frontiers of theoretical physics. The study of stars uncovers the complex processes driving their formation, evolution, and eventual death, from the fusion occurring in their cores to the creation of supernovae and black holes. High-energy physics looks beyond the stars, examining the behavior of subatomic particles at immense energies, seeking to understand the fundamental forces that govern the universe. Theoretical physics plays a critical role, offering mathematical frameworks and models to explain phenomena that cannot yet be directly observed, such as dark matter, dark energy, and the early universe. 
  This book bridges these fascinating areas of physics, providing a comprehensive understanding of how the most energetic and extreme environments in the universe shape the very fabric of reality. From the birth of stars to the mysteries of quantum fields and particle accelerators, it brings together the latest discoveries and theories, inviting readers into the realm of astrophysics and high-energy phenomena. The knowledge gained through this text sheds light on the origins of our universe, the nature of matter, and the potential future of both cosmic and subatomic exploration.
