Laughter Science explores the science behind laughter, revealing its profound effects on our brains, bodies, and social lives. The book investigates the neurobiology of laughter, highlighting how it triggers the release of endorphins, leading to stress reduction and improved mood. It also delves into humor psychology, examining how our brains process and appreciate different forms of humor. Furthermore, it emphasizes the role of laughter in fostering social connections and enhancing psychological resilience. This interdisciplinary approach integrates findings from neuroscience, psychology, sociology, and anthropology to provide a comprehensive understanding of laughter. The book progresses logically, beginning with the biological mechanisms of laughter, then moving to its psychological benefits, and finally exploring its anthropological and sociological dimensions. By presenting complex concepts in an accessible manner with real-world examples, Laughter Science offers valuable insights into human behavior and social dynamics, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in the science of well-being.

    Marcus Garvey (1887-1940) was a Black political activist, journalist, entrepreneur, and orator who founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, which had a following of more than six million African descended people worldwide. Despite his massive popularity, this Jamaican born international leader was wrongfully sentenced to prison by the U.S. government on trumped-up mail-fraud charges. 
     
     
     
    While exoneration efforts began immediately and have continued since his sentencing, a new groundswell movement for Garvey's posthumous pardon is underway—led by his nonagenarian, still-spirited son, Julius Garvey. 
     
     
     
    Edited by Julius Garvey, Justice for Marcus Garvey is a collection of informative essays and personal narratives about the senior Garvey's life and work, demonstrating his essential influence on current social justice movements. The book features contributions from thought leaders and activists, including a foreword by bestselling author Ta-Nehisi Coates. Contributors include Paul Coates, founder/director of Black Classic Press; Goulda Downer, president of the Caribbean-American Political Action Committee; Justin Hansford, professor at Howard University School of Law; and Maulana Karenga, widely known as the creator of the holiday Kwanzaa.

    History of the Jews - A Concise...

    Jewish history is a rich tapestry woven over millennia, shaped by the development of a people, their religion, and their culture as they interacted with various civilizations, faiths, and cultures. The earliest reference to Israel can be found on the Merneptah Stele, dated to between 1213–1203 BCE, marking the first historical mention of the ancient Israelite people. However, the religious and cultural narrative of the Jews stretches far earlier. Jewish tradition traces its origins to at least 1500 BCE, with religious texts such as the Torah recounting the story of the Israelites, beginning with the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. This historical foundation laid the groundwork for the development of Judaism, which began to emerge as a distinct religion during the Hellenistic period, particularly around 323–31 BCE, as Greek scholars began documenting Jewish practices and beliefs. 
    The trajectory of Jewish history has been marked by a series of dispersals and captivities, with the first significant one being the Assyrian exile of the ten northern tribes in 722 BCE. This event set the stage for a larger dispersion that was solidified with the Babylonian captivity in 586 BCE, when the Jewish elite were taken into exile. Following the Babylonian conquest, Jews began to settle throughout the ancient Near East, which would later become a defining characteristic of Jewish existence. The Jewish people continued to spread across the Mediterranean world, particularly within the vast expanse of the Roman Empire, where they maintained distinct cultural and religious practices even as they interacted with surrounding civilizations. This trend persisted throughout Byzantine rule in the eastern Mediterranean, although the influence of Jewish communities diminished in these regions after the Byzantine Empire lost control of the Levant to the Arab Islamic Empire in 638 CE.

    In On Dreams, Sigmund Freud distills the essence of his groundbreaking work, The Interpretation of Dreams, into a concise and accessible exploration of the human psyche. First published in 1901, this seminal text offers a lucid summary of Freud’s theories on how dreams function as veiled wish fulfillment, shaped by the unconscious mind. 
    Freud delves into the mechanisms that govern dream formation—such as condensation, displacement, dramatization, and censorship—revealing how these processes distort repressed desires into the surreal narratives we experience during sleep. Blending clinical observation with philosophical insight, he contrasts scientific and popular views of dreaming, examines the influence of daily life on dream content, and categorizes different types of dreams. 
    Ideal for students, psychologists, and anyone curious about the workings of the unconscious, On Dreams remains a timeless introduction to psychoanalytic thought and Freud's enduring legacy.
