  How Did I Become a Liar? is a raw, honest, and deeply emotional memoir of a man who learned to hide behind lies long before he learned to speak with confidence. 
  Vusimzi Ishmael Faku takes you on a powerful journey through childhood shame, rejection, stuttering, insecurity, and the silent battles no one ever saw. Each lie became a survival tool, a shield, and a mask — until the mask began to crack. 
  This book exposes how lies can shape identity, relationships, destiny, and even how we see God. But it is not just a confession — it is a testimony of healing, transformation, forgiveness, and becoming the man truth was always calling him to be. 
  If you've ever struggled with fear, acceptance, identity, or the shame of your past, this book will speak to your soul. It will challenge you, comfort you, and remind you that truth still sets us free — even after years of hiding.

  A Brain-Friendly Life - How to...

  Modern life is brain-unfriendly: We are flooded with information and excessive cognitive demands, when we are often already depleted from chronic stress, sleep deprivation, and health issues. Many of us experience frequent 'glitches' or memory lapses, despite tests showing there is nothing wrong with our brains. This book provides concrete strategies, derived from neuropsychological science and clinical practice, to help people improve how they function in daily life. 
  Menchola draws on her experience as a clinical neuropsychologist who has worked with a widely diverse group of patients, to translate the findings from highly controlled research into concrete strategies that people can implement in their messy worlds to make their days more brain-friendly. The book also provides advice on how to address those factors that drain our brain resources, and gives guidance on when and how to seek a neuropsychological evaluation. 
  It is valuable listening for anyone experiencing frustrating cognitive problems that are not due to brain disease. It is also essential for neuropsychologists, psychologists and physicians in primary care, psychiatry, and neurology, who need a resource to offer to patients to help their healthy brains function better.

  'A poetically-written testimony of our own deep relationship with the natural world, and of nature's own resilience'Ben Goldsmith
  Imagine if you could hear the trees speak. How would it change your life? Your relationship to the world around you? This is the story of what happened when the trees whispered me to quit my job, leave my life in New York and go on a journey to listen. It is the story of what I learnt from ten trees on five continents – and the lessons that the trees have for all of us on how to be in a rapidly changing world.
  Olivia Sprinkel was sitting in her office in New York, an experienced international sustainability strategy and communications consultant, and as a newly single woman, she decided she had to make a change in her life and undertake a journey. To Hear the Trees Speak: Adventures in Listening is the story of her travels to Europe, North and South America, Australia, and South Asia, to discover ten of our world's essential trees and their habitats. The ten trees range from the banyan and bodhi to the olive, giant sequoia and beech.
  Powerfully crafted, this is important and accessible nature writing blended with insightful memoir.
