    Bangkok by night draws its lifeblood from the realms of the steamy and the seamy. The capital of Thailand is world-famous for its innumerable massage parlours, yet at the same time the city is rich in historical treasures. Some of its Buddhist temples are more than 400 years old, and contrast strangely with Bangkok’s otherwise cutting-edge modernity. Its unique charm stems also from the winding presence of the  Chao Phraya river, a waterway that can hardly be seen due to the multitude of small vessels that ply up and down it daily carrying a vast horde of passengers and goods,  representing a cameo of the multiplicity of colours and styles that correspond to everyday life throughout Thailand.

    Learning to communicate and manage frustration is part of growing up. But some children don’t master those skills. Suppose their frequent angry outbursts and aggressive behaviors interfere with family life, making friends, or school performance. In that case, they may have the oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), which, by some estimates, affects up to 16 percent of school-age children. Though no statistics are available for younger children, experts say that most children with ODD show signs of the disorder in the preschool years.Oppositional defiant disorder describes a pattern of angry/irritable mood, argumentative/defiant behavior, and/or spitefulness that lasts at least six months in multiple settings. It occurs almost daily in children younger than 5 and at least once a week in older children. (By 6 or 7, most children have learned to express anger in productive, socially acceptable ways.)Examples of anger and irritable mood include frequent loss of temper and being easily annoyed or resentful. Argumentative and defiant behavior includes refusing to obey rules, continually challenging authority, being deliberately annoying to others, and/or blaming others for mistakes or bad behavior.He says that many children with ODD have other mental health challenges, such as anxiety, mood disorders, and language and learning disorders. Trauma, parenting, styles, and other environmental issues may also contribute.As with many mental health conditions, ODD occurs on a continuum. Children with mild ODD may show symptoms only at home or only at school. Moderate ODD may be the diagnosis when a child’s ODD behaviors happen in two settings. ODD is classified as severe when the acting out is seen in three or more locations.

    This book bundle takes an in-depth look at one of the most insidious forms of psychological manipulation: gaslighting. In this comprehensive 3-in-1 volume, which includes Gaslighting, Obfuscation, and Self-Deception, readers explore the methods that abusers use to distort their victims' perception of reality and undermine their sense of self. 
    Gaslighting, a tactic where an abuser manipulates another into doubting their own memory, perception, and sanity, is explored in vivid detail. Obfuscation highlights the ways in which truth is hidden, twisted, or obscured to confuse and control the victim, while Self-Deception reveals how individuals, often unknowingly, buy into the lies and manipulation, resulting in internalized confusion and self-doubt. The book delves into the complex psychological dynamics of these manipulative strategies and the emotional toll they take. 
    Through powerful case studies and expert analysis, Gaslight Nation empowers readers to recognize these harmful behaviors in their own lives and offers practical steps for breaking free from the cycle of deception and regaining clarity. Whether in personal relationships or larger societal contexts, this book serves as a crucial tool for understanding the devastating effects of gaslighting and finding a path to healing and truth.

    This book contains these two titles: 
    Exploitation - Economic inequality has become one of the defining challenges of our era, shaping the trajectory of societies across the globe. The income gap between the wealthiest and the poorest continues to widen, creating a stark divide that influences not only financial security but also access to education, healthcare, and opportunities. This growing disparity raises questions about the fairness of our systems and the sustainability of our futures. The roots of inequality are complex, intertwining historical legacies with contemporary policies and practices. In many nations, the transition from agrarian economies to industrialized and globalized markets created unprecedented wealth. However, this wealth was not evenly distributed. The rise of capitalism, technological advancements, and shifts in labor dynamics often concentrated power and resources in the hands of a few, leaving vast populations struggling to make ends meet.  
    War Crimes - The need for accountability in the face of war crimes is critical. It is not only about bringing perpetrators to justice but also about establishing a global standard that deters such crimes in the future. The introduction of international laws and institutions aimed at prosecuting war crimes marks a pivotal shift in the international community's approach to warfare. The atrocities committed during World War II, particularly the Holocaust and other acts of genocide, were a wake-up call for the global community. This led to the creation of the Nuremberg Trials, the first real attempt to hold individuals accountable for war crimes, and set the foundation for modern international law.
