  Galactic Ghosts - Hauntings...

  This book takes you on a deep-space expedition into the eerie remains and forgotten wonders of the cosmos. In Galactic Ghosts, we explore the spectral remnants of once-vibrant galaxies—those that flicker faintly in the void or have vanished entirely, leaving only gravitational footprints and dust trails behind. These ghostly presences echo stories of collapse, expansion, and cosmic rebirth. 
  Galactic Mysteries dives into the unexplained phenomena that baffle astronomers: fast radio bursts from unknown sources, wandering black holes, and matter that can’t be seen but shapes everything we know. Here, mystery isn’t just a question—it’s the invitation to uncover truths buried in the silence of space. Each anomaly deepens our understanding of what the universe hides behind its twinkling veil. 
  Echoes of the Cosmos reflects on the residual energy and soundless signals that ripple across galaxies long after the source has died. From microwave background radiation to gravitational waves, the universe keeps a record of its most dramatic moments. These cosmic echoes are not just leftovers—they’re the fingerprints of creation, war, and celestial evolution, still lingering among the stars.

  Why are we often convinced that we’re right even when we’re wrong? Why are we jealous, or paranoid, even when we have absolutely no reason to be? Why is it so easy for fake news to spread around the globe and fool us? It’s because we don’t see the world as it is, rather we reconstruct it in our mind.

  Are you looking to relieve any physical or mental health conditions for which psilocybin has shown potential? Perhaps without the side effects commonly associated with many pharmaceuticals 
  Countless research and anecdotal reports have shown that psilocybin can help relieve numerous mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, crippling fear, substance dependence, PTSD, and OCD, among others. And not only mental health conditions but also physical ailments such as migraines or cluster headaches, among others. Additionally, it has been used to noticeably improve your daily performance and general well-being. 
  But even with the outstanding benefits, little is known about microdosing psilocybin, and the information out there lacks accuracy and depth, making this venture harder than it should be… until now. 
  Microdosing Psilocybin Mushrooms is an all-inclusive, carefully researched, up-to-date, and beginner-friendly guide to everything there is to know about microdosing with psilocybin mushrooms. 
  Discover:The transformational power of psilocybin, its nature, and its influence on the human brainThe rich history of psilocybin mushrooms, dated back as far as you might have ever imaginedWhat to do to zero in on your optimal doseAll the therapeutic applications of psilocybinThe best microdosing protocolsPossible side effects and disqualified individualAnd much more! 
  It doesn’t matter whether you’ve tried microdosing mushrooms before and are looking to refine your knowledge or haven’t ever held them in your hand and want to learn more about this nascent topic; this guide will walk you through the whole process until you are psilocybin-versed!

  Unsettling - Surviving...

  The time has come to reimagine our relationship to the environment before it is too late.As wildfires char the American West, extreme weather transforms landscapes, glaciers retreat, and climate zones shift, we are undeniably experiencing the effects of the climate crisis in more and more destructive ways. Climate change is impacting every inhabited region of the world, but there is much we can still do.Unsettling explores human impacts on the environment through science, popular culture, personal narrative, and landscape. Using the stories of animals, landscapes, and people who have exhibited resilience in the face of persistent colonization across the North American continent, science writer Elizabeth Weinberg explores how climate change is a direct result of white supremacy, colonialism, sexism, and heteronormativity. Travel through the deep sea; along Louisiana’s vanishing bayous; down the Colorado, Mississippi, and Potomac rivers; and over the Cascade Mountains, and examine how we as humans, particularly white humans, have drawn a stark line between human and animal, culture and nature, in order to exploit anything and anyone we find useful. With gorgeous and pointed prose, Weinberg weaves together science, personal essay, history, and pop culture to propose a new way of thinking about climate change—one that is rooted in queerness and antiracism.
