  For fans of The Artist’s Way and The Creative Act, comes an alternative perspective on creativity, introducing “play” as a key tool to building trust and confidence in ourselves and a path to creative expression.    You are creative! Yes you! Despite what society, friends, family, or social media might tell you, you don’t need to practice the “classic creative outlets” like art, music, or writing to find creative expression. And if you are interested in those outlets, you don’t need to pursue them as a career to live a more fulfilling life.   The key to cultivating the kind of big, juicy life that sparks joy, connection, and fulfillment isn’t chasing the title of “creative”, it’s prioritizing your play. In Prioritize Play, host of the Chaotic Creatives podcast and play enthusiast, Rachael Renae, reveals that play is more important to our wellbeing than productivity or career titles and should be prioritized as readily as getting groceries, paying your rent, or getting your work done. When we connect to ourselves through play, we become more curious and intentional in how we express ourselves and connect with other people. Within these pages are:  Mindset shifts to start seeing play in the everyday  Guidance to help you find your version of play  Strategies to turn play into a regular practice  Exercises to release expectations on your creativity, and  Lessons in becoming your own hype pal.   Through introspection and fun challenges, you’ll see that play is the solution toward overcoming our creative blocks, caring less about what people think of us, and showing ourselves that we do deserve to prioritize our creative ideas. Even when they don’t make money. Even if we’re not “good” at them. Even if they’re not a “traditional” creative outlet. Because we all deserve our version of our Big, Juicy Life!

  A Treatise of Human Nature

  David Hume

  A Treatise of Human Nature is a philosophical work written by the Scottish philosopher David Hume and published in three volumes between 1739 and 1740. The book explores a wide range of philosophical topics, including metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics, and it is considered one of the most influential works in the history of philosophy. 
  Hume's central thesis is that all human knowledge is ultimately derived from sensory experience, and that there is no inherent connection between cause and effect. He argues that our beliefs about cause and effect are based on custom and habit, rather than any rational or logical foundation. This leads him to challenge many traditional metaphysical and religious beliefs, including the existence of God and the immortality of the soul. 
  Hume's skeptical approach to knowledge and causality is also applied to ethics and aesthetics. He argues that moral judgments and aesthetic preferences are not based on reason, but rather on subjective feelings and emotions. This leads him to reject the idea of objective moral and aesthetic standards, and to propose a theory of moral and aesthetic relativism. 
  Despite its controversial and radical views, A Treatise of Human Nature is widely regarded as a masterpiece of philosophical writing, and has had a profound influence on subsequent philosophical thought.

  A timely look at how the Electoral College has changed US history and why it endures—told through the lenses of specific people who both influenced the process and were impacted by the results. 
   
   
   
  "Over the years, no feature of the Constitution has attracted more criticism than that strange creature called the Electoral College. Thomas E. Weaver has made that history into a story with an intriguing cast of characters, some familiar, several new to me. If you want to know why it is so hard to do away with this long-standing anachronism, Weaver's story will help you understand." —JOSEPH J. ELLIS, Professor Emeritus of History, Mount Holyoke College, author of Pulitzer Prize–winning Founding Brothers: The Revolutionary Generation 
   
   
   
  "Those who think that throwing stones at political institutions is the same as reasoned debate should take some lessons from this carefully researched book. With a cast of colorful characters in tow, Weaver examines the long-standing controversies surrounding the EC and sets out numerous proposals for reform, which range from outright abolition to removing the "plus two" clause. Weaver brings a wealth of historical research to the task, writing with authority and clarity." —Kirkus
