  How can obedience and carrying out orders lead to horrific acts such as the Holocaust or the genocides in Rwanda, Cambodia, or Bosnia? For the most part, it is a mystery why obeying instructions from an authority can convince people to kill other human beings, sometimes without hesitation and with incredible cruelty. Combining social and cognitive neuroscience with real-life accounts from genocide perpetrators, this book sheds light on the process through which obedience influences cognition and behavior. Emilie Caspar, a leading expert in the field, translates this neuroscientific approach into a clear, uncomplicated explanation, even for those with no background in psychology or neuroscience. By better understanding humanity's propensity for direct orders to short-circuit our own independent decision-making, we can edge closer to effective prevention processes.

  For families walking through the final chapter of a loved one’s life, nothing truly prepares you for the emotional weight of hospice care. In Helping Mom Pass On with Dignity: My Hospice Journey and Lessons Learned, one son shares the deeply personal story of caring for his mother during her final months, and the life-changing lessons learned along the way. 
   
  This is not a medical textbook. It is a real and honest journey filled with love, fear, exhaustion, family struggles, hope, regret, and moments of unexpected peace. Written in a simple and heartfelt style, this audiobook speaks directly to caregivers, adult children, spouses, veterans, hospice workers, and anyone facing the painful reality of saying goodbye to someone they love. 
   
  You will walk beside a son who moved in with his mother years before her passing and honored her wish to remain at home with dignity during hospice care. Along the way, he shares powerful lessons about family conflict, caregiving stress, setting boundaries, asking for help, handling medications, dealing with guilt, and learning how to let go with love instead of fear. 
   
  You will hear about the “Angel in the Room,” the hospice nurse who brought comfort and sanity during the darkest moments. You will experience the sleepless nights, the hard questions no child ever expects to hear from a parent, and the emotional roller coaster of watching someone slowly prepare to leave this world. 
   
  Most importantly, this audiobook reminds listeners that they are not alone. Many caregivers silently carry feelings of doubt, grief, frustration, and regret. This story offers comfort, understanding, and reassurance that doing your best with love truly matters. 
   
  Whether you are preparing for hospice care, currently living through it, or trying to heal after losing someone close to you, this audiobook may help you feel seen, understood, and supported. 
   
  Sometimes the greatest act of love is simply being there.

  Sex is a Spectrum - The...

  Being human entails an astonishingly complex interplay of biology and culture, and while there are important differences between women and men, there is a lot more variation and overlap than we may realize. Sex Is a Spectrum offers a bold new paradigm for understanding the biology of sex, drawing on the latest science to explain why the binary view of the sexes is fundamentally flawed. 
   
   
   
  In this lively and provocative book, leading biological anthropologist Agustín Fuentes begins by tracing the origin and evolution of sex, describing the many ways in the animal kingdom of being female, male, or both. Turning to humans, he presents evidence from the fossil and archaeological record that attests to the diversity of our ancestors' sexual bonds, gender roles, and family and community structures, and shows how the same holds true in the lived experiences of people today. Fuentes tackles hot-button debates around sports and medicine, explaining why we can acknowledge that females and males are not the same while also embracing a biocultural reality where none of us fits neatly into only one of two categories. 
   
   
   
  Bringing clarity and reason to a contentious issue, Sex Is a Spectrum shares a scientist's perspective on why a binary view of sex and gender is not only misguided but harmful, and why there are multitudes of ways of being human.

  Are you interested in machine learning? Do you want to know how it all works and what it involves? Then you've chosen the right guide. 
  Machine learning is a subset of computer science and Artificial Intelligence. There's no getting away from the fact that it is here to stay, and it is already changing how many businesses work and target their customers. It's a complex subject, but this guide will give you a concise overview of the steps required in every machine learning project. 
  Here's what you will learn: 
  ·     How to install Python on Windows and Mac 
  ·     A short look at the common Python machine learning libraries and packages 
  ·     How to collect data for a machine learning project 
  ·     How to prepare the data 
  ·     How to choose the right machine learning model 
  ·     How to train your model 
  ·     How to evaluate your model 
  ·     What parameter tuning involves 
  ·     How to make predictions using your trained model 
  Then you'll get a walkthrough on how to implement all those steps, with some code examples. 
  What you won't get is a guide on how to use Python. It is expected that you will have some knowledge of this popular programming language before you start or will want to learn it when you have read the guide. 
  For now, if you want to get inside machine learning with Python, scroll up, click on Buy Now and start a new chapter in your life.
