  A Better Black Wall Street is a book that focuses on a movement to create a robust economic system for Black Americans and those in need. The book delves into Business Transparency, emphasizing Trust, Integrity, Openness, and more. The goal of leveraging technology, communication, and AI is to foster unity through interviews, discussions, storytelling, and the reinvention of true brotherhood and sisterhood to maintain a strong sense of community. Learning from the past, we create a protective shield around us, keeping our memories fresh about the hindrances others have placed in our path to success, including those we have imposed on ourselves. To truly understand the necessity of this movement, one must reflect on the historical challenges and systemic barriers that Black Americans have encountered in their pursuit of economic success. This movement seeks to empower individuals by instilling a sense of self-worth and pride and encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation in adversity. Through collaboration and shared experiences, we aim to build a supportive network that uplifts and celebrates the achievements of the Black community, paving the way for a brighter and more equitable future for all.

  Famous Men of Greece

  Greeks were history’s great men of thought. John Haaren has collected stories from the lives of thirty famous Greek men, detailing the rise, Golden Age, and fall of Greece. Among these men are Aristotle, Ptolemy, Ulysses, Pericles, and Alexander the Great. Children will be delighted to read and understand why the scope of Greek accomplishment is still known today as the “Greek Miracle.” 
  This book provides a great introduction to ancient Greece, not only for children, but for adults who missed out on a classical education. The title (originally given when the book was first published in 1904) is a little misleading, as the book introduces gods and goddesses, as well as talking about the famous heroes and leaders of the former nation. However, the book is a very good resource to help both adults and children understand references in literature and elsewhere to these individuals who have had influence on our own stories and government.

  Deaths resulting from interactions with the US criminal legal system are a public health emergency, but the scope of this issue is intentionally ignored by the very systems that are supposed to be tracking these fatalities. In order to make a real difference and address this human rights problem, researchers and policy makers need reliable data. 
   
   
   
  In Death in Custody, Roger A. Mitchell Jr., MD, and Jay D. Aronson, PhD, share the stories of individuals who died in custody and chronicle the efforts of activists and journalists to uncover the true scope of deaths in custody. From Ida B. Wells's enumeration of extrajudicial lynchings more than a century ago to the Washington Post's current effort to count police shootings, the work of journalists and independent groups has always been more reliable than the state's official reports. 
   
   
   
  Mitchell and Aronson outline a practical, achievable system for accurately recording and investigating these deaths. They argue for a straightforward public health solution: adding a simple checkbox to the US Standard Death Certificate that would create an objective way of recording whether a death occurred in custody. These tangible solutions would allow us to see the full scope of the problem and give us the chance to truly address it.

  "Facts the Historians Leave Out" is a book that delves into lesser-known aspects and perspectives of American history, particularly focusing on the Confederate side of the Civil War. This work seeks to shed light on events, figures, and narratives that the author argues have been overlooked or underrepresented in mainstream historical accounts. The book is often regarded as offering a revisionist view, aiming to broaden readers' understanding of the Civil War by including stories and facts that are not commonly featured in traditional historical texts. Its approach to history is controversial, as it challenges established narratives and interpretations of the Civil War, leading to debates about historical accuracy, bias, and the role of historical narrative in shaping collective memory.

  A new model of executive functioning which illuminates the somatic, social, and emotional influences on how we make decisions. 
   
  Executive functioning (EF) can be defined as a person's ability to successfully navigate their physical, intellectual, and social worlds. Interest in EF is expanding within psychotherapy, but like many scientific concepts which are adapted to the consulting room, there is a great deal of confusion and misinformation surrounding EF within clinical and lay communities. 
   
  In this book, Louis Cozolino—a master of translating complex neuroscientific concepts into digestible, applicable literature for therapists and laypeople alike—is joined by experts Chloe Drulis and Carly Trissler to illuminate how our brains and minds successfully navigate the challenges of day—to—day life. The book offers a new, neurodynamic model of EF that explains the three main executive systems in the brain and the specific ways that they influence how we think, focus, and solve problems. This neurobiological framework highlights the interconnectedness of cognition, emotion, and relationships, providing readers with a deeper understanding of how humans function and strategies to improve outcomes in therapy, parenting, executive coaching, and personal development.
