  A certified psychedelic therapist explores the deeper healing offered by psychedelics to those working through trauma.   “Micah has created a must-read for anyone curious about the healing power of psychedelics. Healing Psychedelics demystifies the process and emphasizes safety and effectiveness, making it an essential guide for both new explorers and seasoned practitioners.” —Jessika Lagarde, psychedelic-assisted medicine facilitator, integration coach, and cofounder of Women On Psychedelics   Psychedelics are showing great promise as a new way to heal trauma and improve emotional wellness. Studies reveal that they can be effective in reducing PTSD, anxiety, and depression symptoms, even in cases that are resistant to other treatments. Stover offers a comprehensive and informative guide for both professionals and patients who are interested in learning more about psychedelic-assisted therapy.   Each chapter reveals a vignette taken directly from the psychedelic space that shows the medicines (medium and macro-doses of MDMA, psilocybin, ketamine, and cannabis), why they were chosen, and the process used for transformation during the sessions. Stover weaves in wisdom from indigenous and Mexican healers and practitioners with application exercises, writing prompts, and journal entries to deepen the reader’s healing journey. These exercises are applicable to all readers, whether you are working on your own or with a therapist.  Healing Psychedelics shows the complete process, enabling the reader to safely unlock the power of psychedelics to heal trauma and transform their life for a brighter future.

  Quantum Physics: The Mystery of Superposition 
  A Strange New World 
  Imagine a universe where a single particle can be in two places at once, where light is both a wave and a particle, and where observation itself changes reality. This is the world of quantum physics, and at its center is the mystery of superposition. 
  The Beginning of the Quantum Revolution 
  This audiobook takes listeners on a journey from the roots of classical science to the groundbreaking discoveries of the 20th century. You will meet brilliant minds like Planck, Einstein, Bohr, and Schrödinger, who challenged old ideas and revealed a universe stranger than anyone expected. 
  The Core Ideas 
  Key concepts such as wave-particle duality, entanglement, and the uncertainty principle are explained in clear, simple terms. You will discover how particles can be linked across space, how measurement changes outcomes, and why the quantum world defies ordinary logic. 
  Why It Matters to You 
  Quantum physics is not only about theory. It shapes the technology you use every day, from smartphones and computers to lasers and MRI machines. The principles of superposition also power the future of quantum computing, cryptography, and sensors. 
  The Deeper Meaning 
  Beyond science and technology, quantum physics raises big questions about the nature of reality and our role as observers. Does the universe exist independent of us, or are we part of shaping it? What does it mean to live in a world of probabilities rather than certainties? 
  An Invitation to Explore 
  Quantum Physics: The Mystery of Superposition makes complex science easy to follow for beginners and lifelong learners alike. Through stories, history, and simple explanations, it opens the door to one of the most fascinating frontiers of human knowledge.

  On Fact and Fraud - Cautionary...

  “Fascinating case studies” of scientific controversies and misconduct—with valuable insights on how to identify, avoid, and prevent fraud (Leonardo). 
   
  In David Goodstein’s varied experience—as a physicist and educator, and as vice provost at Caltech, a job in which he was responsible for investigating all allegations of scientific misconduct—a deceptively simple question has come up time and again: What constitutes fraud in science? Here, Goodstein takes us on a tour of real controversies from the front lines of science and helps readers determine for themselves whether or not fraud occurred. Cases include, among others, those of Robert A. Millikan, whose historic measurement of the electron’s charge has been maligned by accusations of fraud; Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons and their “discovery” of cold fusion; Victor Ninov and the supposed discovery of element 118; Jan Hendrik Schön from Bell Labs and his work in semiconductors; and J. Georg Bednorz and Karl Müller’s discovery of high-temperature superconductivity, a seemingly impossible accomplishment that turned out to be real. 
   
  Fraud in science is not as easy to identify as one might think. When accusations of scientific misconduct occur, truth can be elusive, and the cause of a scientist’s ethical misstep isn’t always clear. On Fact and Fraud looks at actual cases in which fraud was committed or alleged, explaining what constitutes scientific misconduct and what doesn’t—and providing readers with the ethical foundations needed to discern and avoid fraud wherever it may arise. 
   
  “Superb . . . It will be the definitive book on the subject.” —Richard A. Muller, University of California, Berkeley

  Miner's Day

  Miner's Day is a testament to coal mining communities in the mid-twentieth century. First published by Penguin Books as a slim paperback in 1945, it married a reflective text by Britain's outstanding miner-writer, B. L. Coombes, to illustrations by the artist Isabel Alexander.
  The original text is now republished in a generous new format with a substantial introduction and the full wealth of images that Isabel Alexander made in an extended project to document people and places in the South Wales coalfield – a unique addition to the visual representation of mining communities.
  Bert Coombes in words and Isabel Alexander in images each aimed to reveal the layered reality of coal-mining communities to a distant public. They documented both work below ground and devastated environments above. They described the lives not just of working men but women, children and older people too. They saw poverty and despair but also love, hope and even humour. The South Wales they captured echoes similar communities across the world and evolving global challenges to health, work and environment. Miner's Day is as relevant now as it was in 1945.
