“Evicted” by Matthew Desmond explores the devastating effects of eviction on low-income families in Milwaukee. Through the stories of tenants and landlords, Desmond examines the complexities of the housing crisis, highlighting the systemic inequalities in urban America. The book delves into the emotional, psychological, and financial toll eviction takes on individuals, while also exploring the struggles landlords face.

The Overlife - A Tale of...

Diana Dirkby

The author of this book, Diana Dirkby, is an Australian-born research mathematician who lives with paranoid schizophrenia, a severe brain disorder, as did her mother. The title, “The Overlife,” suggests that a diagnosis of schizophrenia can be the beginning of a new, worthwhile life and not simply the death of the hopes and dreams that preceded the diagnosis. This book gives a fictional account of a mother and daughter living with paranoid schizophrenia. We follow the widely disparate effects of this brain disorder on Sarah, the narrator, and her mother, Jodie. We also meet Dalaigh, Jodie’s husband and Sarah’s father, with his violent resentment at being trapped in a marriage he doesn’t want. By age eight, Sarah is Jodie’s caregiver and must negotiate her mother’s rapidly worsening mental health and her father’s white-hot fury. The weight of these adult conflicts on the shoulders of one so young seems impossible to bear.

Making Meaning of Difficult...

Sheila A.M. Rauch, Barbara O....

Up to 90% of adults in the US will experience one or more traumatic events in their lifetimes, including interpersonal violence, traffic collisions, and sexual assault. While most who suffer a trauma naturally recover over time, for others difficulties continue, and may lead to full-blown depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use, anxiety disorders, and other problems that interfere with healthy daily functioning. 
 
 
 
Making Meaning of Difficult Experiences is a self-guided mental health resource for people who have had potentially traumatic experiences and who wish to work through them independently, outside of a formal therapeutic setting. Based on psychological treatments with strong scientific support, this book introduces listeners to several useful tools that will help them to emotionally process difficult experiences, with the goal of moving on from the event and building future resilience. The program takes the listener step-by-step through four skill sets to facilitate emotional processing of difficult experiences: Memory Exposure and Processing, Behavioral Activation, Social Connection, and Self-Care. Listeners use this self-evaluation to determine what is working or not working for them, enabling them to focus more on certain skills, or to complete the full program based on their needs.

Asperger’s Syndrome - Learning...

Ava Holgreen

When we first meet someone, we quickly form an impression based on their appearance. The way they dress, their facial expressions, body language, voice, tone, and behavior—all these small details contribute to the image we create of their personality, guiding our subsequent interactions. Some individuals, like those with Asperger's syndrome, may struggle to pick up on subtle social cues that others easily recognize. This difficulty can make social interactions challenging and uncomfortable, sometimes leading to anxiety and depression. 
A lack of awareness or understanding of Asperger's syndrome in the general population can create significant difficulties for those affected by it. People with Asperger's often find it challenging to engage in reciprocal conversations and may lack certain social insights. However, if others make an effort to understand these challenges and provide support, it can help prevent anxiety and depression in individuals with Asperger's. These individuals often have intense interests in specific subjects and perceive the world in unique ways.
