    Ever opened a tab and forgotten why? 
    Mid-scroll, mid-thought… and poof—it’s gone? 
    No, it’s not just you. And no, it’s not early-onset anything, 
    You’ve simply been Forgotten. By. Design. 
    In Forgotten by Design: The Silent Epidemic of Digital Dementia, tech meets soul in this genre-bending, mind-bending manifesto on how your memory, focus, and very sense of time are being subtly stolen—and sold back to you. 
    This isn’t another “digital detox” guilt trip. 
    This is a call to remember who you were before 
    the algorithm got your number. 
    ◆ Neuroscience meets Vedic rituals. 
    ◆ Ancient myths collide with dopamine loops. 
    ◆ Real-life stories, surreal insights, and soul-searching questions. 
    Meet the yogi hidden in your nervous system, 
    Decode the ghost data shaping your identity. 
    And answer the only question that matters now: 
    If your mind’s been outsourced to machines… 
    what’s left of you? 
    This is not self-help. This is self-awakening. 
    (Warning: Once remembered, you can’t go back.) 
    ABOUT THE AUTHOR 
    Hardik Goel has spent over a decade wrangling data by day and words by caffeine-fueled night. By trade, he’s a data engineer and scientist, by temperament. a writer, editor, and part-time overthinker with an eye for patterns—whether in code, conversation, or comic coincidence. 
    This book is what happens when spreadsheets meet Sanskrit, and logic makes a late-night deal with mythology.

    The Petroleum Papers - Inside...

    Burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic global warming: this is what top American oil executives were told by scientists in 1959. But they ignored that warning. Instead, they developed one of the biggest, most polluting oil sources in the world—the oil sands in Alberta, Canada. As investigative journalist Geoff Dembicki reveals in this explosive book, the decades-long conspiracy to keep the oil sands flowing into the US would turn out to be one of the biggest reasons for the world's failure to stop the climate crisis. 
     
     
     
    In The Petroleum Papers, Dembicki draws from confidential oil industry documents to uncover for the first time how companies like Exxon, Koch Industries, and Shell built a global right-wing echo chamber to protect oil sands profits—a misinformation campaign that continues to this day. He also tells the high-stakes stories of people fighting back: a Seattle lawyer who brought down Big Tobacco and is now going after Big Oil, a Filipina activist whose family drowned in a climate disaster, and a former Exxon engineer pushed out for asking hard questions. 
     
     
     
    With experts now warning we have less than a decade to get global emissions under control, The Petroleum Papers provides a step-by-step account of how we got to this precipice—and the politicians and companies who deserve our blame.

    Why me? 
    Why did I get this disease? 
    You thought you did everything right. 
    Food. Exercise. Sleep. 
    You were told your labs were “normal.” 
    So why did you still get sick? 
    Modern medicine is extraordinary at managing acute illness - yet often fails to reverse chronic disease because it overlooks where disease truly begins. 
    In The Disease of Belief, physician Kevin Hoffarth takes listeners beyond prescriptions and test results into the deeper patterns shaping biology long before symptoms appear. Drawing from decades of clinical experience, neuroscience, epigenetics, functional medicine, and emerging insights into the mind–body connection, this audiobook reveals how belief, stress, emotion, and subconscious perception quietly influence physiology—and why lasting healing requires addressing all of them. 
    This isn’t alternative medicine. 
    It’s the missing chapter.

    There is an increased risk of injury in people with epilepsy. 
    Seizures can present as a sudden fall, blank stare, confusion, uncontrolled movements, diminished awareness, odd sensations, a convulsion, or laboured breathing. 
    For some people with epilepsy, their seizures pose a minimal risk of injury. For others, their seizures may require extra precaution to avoid injury. For example, seizures that occur without warning, involve falls, loss of awareness, or confusion after the seizure could result in injury. Precautions may be necessary depending on the activity. 
    Assessing the risks associated with the type and frequency of the seizures may require implementing safety procedures.

    Resurrection Lily shares a story of inheritance and intuition, of what can surface in the body and the spirit when linked by DNA. As Amy Byer Shainman discovers she has inherited a BRCA gene mutation that puts her at high risk of developing certain cancers, she struggles to come to terms with preventively removing her breasts when she does not have a breast cancer diagnosis. Through her experience making decisions about her health, Amy becomes invigorated with purpose and establishes herself as a leading advocate for those with BRCA and other hereditary cancer syndromes, tirelessly working to educate others facing the same daunting reality. 
    Painting a timely and moving portrait of what it feels like to carry a BRCA gene mutation, Resurrection Lily provides firsthand insight into the patient experience. Weaved throughout Amy's open and vulnerable story is the expertise of her doctors, education from top medical experts in cancer genetics, and whispered lifesaving guidance from her grandmother Lillian.
