  If you've experienced trauma, your nervous system may be stuck in "fight-or-flight" mode—leading to symptoms such as hypervigilance, extreme anxiety, and distrust of others. You may struggle with intense emotions, or have nightmares and flashbacks. And you may even experience physical symptoms such as an upset stomach, a pounding heart, or shakiness. This compassionate guide offers a breakthrough approach to bring your mind and body back into balance. 
   
  Healing with Trauma-Focused DBT combines cutting-edge somatic practices from polyvagal theory with evidence-based dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills to help you heal unresolved wounds, manage the physical effects of trauma, and find emotional balance. Using the four skills of DBT—mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness—you'll learn to work through difficult thoughts and feelings and stay grounded in the moment. You'll also discover polyvagal techniques to help you soothe an overwhelmed nervous system and feel safe and at home in your body. 
   
  If you're seeking relief from the mental, emotional, and physical effects of trauma, this workbook offers innovative strategies and exercises to help you move beyond experiences of your past and find your way back to peace, stability, and the life you want.

  Paradiso (Italian: [paraˈdiːzo]; Italian for "Paradise" or "Heaven") is the third and final part of Dante's Divine Comedy, following the Inferno and the Purgatorio. It is an allegory telling of Dante's journey through Heaven, guided by Beatrice, who symbolises theology. In the poem, Paradise is depicted as a series of concentric spheres surrounding the Earth, consisting of the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the Fixed Stars, the Primum Mobile and finally, the Empyrean. It was written in the early 14th century. Allegorically, the poem represents the soul's ascent to God.While the structures of the Inferno and Purgatorio were based around different classifications of sin, the structure of the Paradiso is based on the four cardinal virtues (Prudence, Justice, Temperance, and Fortitude) and the three theological virtues (Faith, Hope, and Charity).

  In The Ultimate Goal, Vikram Sood, former chief of India's external intelligence agency, the Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW), explains 'the narrative' and how a country's ability to construct, sustain and control narratives, at home and abroad, enhances its strength and position. Intelligence agencies invariably play a critical role in this, an often-indispensable tool of statecraft. 
  A 'narrative' may not necessarily be based on truth, but it does need to be plausible, have a meaning and create a desired perception. During most of the twentieth century, intelligence agencies helped shape narratives favourable to their countries' agendas through literature, history, drama, art, music and cinema. Today, social media has become crucial to manipulating, countering or disrupting narratives, with its ability to spread fake news and disinformation, and provoke reactions.

  The Cascade Effect of Migration...

  This volume offers a rigorous and interdisciplinary exploration of how the European Union's externalization of migration governance has reshaped territorial, political, and human landscapes at its periphery. Tracing the aftermath of the 2015 migration crisis, the volume examines how informal agreements with Turkey, Libya, Tunisia, and Albania initiated a cascading logic that normalizes legal opacity, erodes accountability, and institutionalizes human rights violations. Moving beyond legal and geopolitical critique, the book investigates the entanglement of migration containment with tourism development in border regions such as Lampedusa and Lesvos, exposing how these territories become doubly burdened as sites of both securitization and commodification. By engaging with law, postcolonial theory, and critical tourism studies, the authors reveal the neo-colonial dynamics underlying EU mobility governance and advance alternative models grounded in accountability, territorial justice, and the defense of fundamental rights.

  The war instinct is part of human nature, but the means to fight war depend on technology. Alex Roland traces the co-evolution of technology and warfare from the Stone Age to the age of cyberwar, describing the inventions that changed the direction of warfare throughout history: from fortified walls, the chariot, battleships, and the gunpowder revolution to bombers, rockets, improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and nuclear weapons.In the twenty-first century, new technologies continue to push warfare in unexpected directions, while warfare stimulates stunning new technological advances. Yet even now, the newest and best technology cannot guarantee victory. Brimming with dramatic narratives of battles and deep insights into military psychology, this book shows that although military technologies keep changing at great speed, the principles and patterns behind them abide.
