  The Iran Nuclear Deal -...

  Iran's nuclear program has long been a subject of intense global scrutiny and diplomatic tension. Since the 1970s, the country has pursued the development of nuclear technology, initially for peaceful purposes, but concerns about its potential military ambitions escalated over time. As the international community grappled with Iran's nuclear ambitions, the central question was whether Tehran sought to develop nuclear weapons or maintain its program solely for civilian use. This uncertainty fueled widespread fear, particularly among Western powers and regional rivals like Israel, who viewed a nuclear-armed Iran as a direct threat to regional stability and global security. 
  The United States, along with its allies, pursued a variety of diplomatic efforts and imposed harsh economic sanctions in response to Iran’s nuclear activities. These sanctions targeted key sectors of Iran’s economy, including its oil exports and banking system, and were intended to pressure the Iranian government into compliance with international demands for greater transparency and restrictions on its nuclear program. Despite these measures, Iran's leadership remained defiant, and negotiations over the future of the nuclear program became increasingly complex. 
    
  The culmination of years of diplomatic maneuvering was the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a landmark agreement reached in 2015 between Iran and six major world powers—the United States, United Kingdom, France, Russia, China, and Germany. The deal promised to significantly limit Iran's nuclear activities in exchange for sanctions relief. The JCPOA was heralded as a major achievement in international diplomacy, seen as a model for how nations could come together to resolve contentious issues through negotiation rather than military confrontation.

  Old Before Their Time is the deeply personal story of a thirty-five-year scientific investigation of the effects of childhood sexual abuse on child development and adult outcomes. The startling conclusion is that early childhood trauma accelerates biological aging of the body and the mind. 
   
  The listener will gain a comprehensive perspective on the many ways in which maltreatment embeds itself in a child's mind, body, and behavior and is expressed across generations. It concludes that the prevention of child maltreatment is the single most powerful target for the prevention of mental illness, and for reducing premature death from common illnesses. 
   
  One in five women and one in eight men report a history of child sexual abuse. As adults, victims often have questions about how it has affected them. Old Before Their Time provides answers as well as recommendations to improve child protection and treatment services which impact millions of children and families every year. Written for a general science reader, this engaging book is well-referenced for professionals who work with children or adults with histories of child maltreatment.

  The Overconfidence Bias -...

  Overconfidence is a cognitive bias that affects the way we perceive our abilities, knowledge, and future outcomes. It leads individuals to overestimate their competence and the precision of their knowledge, often resulting in flawed decision-making. At its core, overconfidence is an inflated sense of self-assurance that distorts reality. While a certain level of confidence is essential for success, excessive confidence can cloud judgment and lead to risky choices. 
  The overconfidence bias has been widely studied in psychology, with researchers highlighting its profound impact on decision-making processes. One of the primary reasons for overconfidence is the human tendency to focus on positive outcomes while downplaying potential risks or failures. People who are overconfident tend to believe they have more control over situations than they actually do, leading them to take on challenges that they are not fully prepared for. This overestimation of abilities can be seen in various domains, from personal life to professional settings, where individuals frequently believe they know more or can perform tasks better than they truly can. 
  Overconfidence is not just about the belief that one can succeed in a particular task or scenario; it also involves an overestimation of how much one knows. For instance, individuals may feel confident in their knowledge of a topic but may be unaware of the gaps in their understanding. This phenomenon is particularly noticeable in fields such as finance, medicine, and law, where professionals often make critical decisions based on incomplete or flawed information, assuming their knowledge is comprehensive. Overconfidence can also manifest in the form of the "illusion of control," where individuals believe they can influence outcomes that are largely governed by chance.
