Internet Hoaxes examines how fake news and online misinformation spread rapidly in the digital age, exploring the technology and psychology behind these deceptive practices. The book highlights how social media algorithms can amplify falsehoods and how echo chambers reinforce existing beliefs, making people more susceptible to online scams. By understanding how hoaxes exploit vulnerabilities, readers can develop critical thinking skills and media literacy to combat online deception.

 
The book begins by defining internet hoaxes and tracing their evolution from traditional media to the digital realm. It then analyzes the psychology behind why people believe hoaxes, exploring cognitive biases like confirmation bias. Finally, Internet Hoaxes presents real-world case studies of viral misinformation, including its impact on elections and financial markets, demonstrating the tangible consequences of these online deceptions.

 
Through a holistic approach, the book combines technical analysis with psychological insights and real-world examples, offering a comprehensive understanding of internet hoaxes. Drawing on academic research, fact-checking reports, and social media analysis, the book empowers readers to navigate the digital landscape more discerningly. This fact-based analysis helps readers understand the anatomy of online deception and its impact on current events.

    This work provides a concise synthesis of the key insights and analysis of the book. It is an independent summary, not the original book, and has no affiliation with or endorsement from the original publication. Created for readers who want a clear, thought-provoking overview, it distills the central themes and ideas while preserving the depth and relevance of the work. 
    The Myth of Normal examines the hidden costs of modern life, challenging the assumption that what society calls “normal” is actually healthy. It reveals how trauma, disconnection, and emotional suppression are not isolated problems but widespread patterns produced by culture itself. Drawing on science, psychology, and lived stories, the book demonstrates how stress, illness, and addiction are not merely personal failings but symptoms of a deeper social dysfunction. At its core, it argues that healing requires more than treating symptoms: it demands a return to authenticity, compassion, and connection—both within ourselves and in the systems we inhabit. By redefining health as alignment with truth rather than compliance with cultural norms, the book opens a path toward greater wholeness for individuals and communities alike.

    Mona Chollet's In Defense of Witches is a “brilliant, well-documented” celebration (Le Monde) by an acclaimed French feminist of the witch as a symbol of female rebellion and independence in the face of misogyny and persecution.Centuries after the infamous witch hunts that swept through Europe and America, witches continue to hold a unique fascination for many: as fairy tale villains, practitioners of pagan religion, as well as feminist icons. Witches are both the ultimate victim and the stubborn, elusive rebel. But who were the women who were accused and often killed for witchcraft? What types of women have centuries of terror censored, eliminated, and repressed?Celebrated feminist writer Mona Chollet explores three types of women who were accused of witchcraft and persecuted: the independent woman, since widows and celibates were particularly targeted; the childless woman, since the time of the hunts marked the end of tolerance for those who claimed to control their fertility; and the elderly woman, who has always been an object of at best, pity, and at worst, horror. Examining modern society, Chollet concludes that these women continue to be harassed and oppressed. Rather than being a brief moment in history, the persecution of witches is an example of society’s seemingly eternal misogyny, while women today are direct heirs to those who were hunted down and killed for their thoughts and actions. With fiery prose and arguments that range from the scholarly to the cultural, In Defense of Witches seeks to unite the mythic image of the witch with modern women who seek to live their lives on their own terms.
