Summary

"Gut Health" explores the groundbreaking connection between your gut microbiome and mental well-being, particularly concerning addiction and recovery. It reveals how the gut-brain axis, a two-way communication system, profoundly affects mood, cravings, and cognitive functions. Intriguingly, many neurotransmitters, crucial for mental health, are produced in the gut, highlighting how imbalances can contribute to issues like anxiety, depression, and even substance dependence.

This book begins by laying the groundwork, explaining the microbiome's composition and the intricacies of the gut-brain axis in simple terms. It then builds a case for how a healthy gut is essential for optimal brain function, especially when dealing with addiction and mental health challenges. Readers will discover how dietary and lifestyle adjustments can positively impact the gut microbiome, improving mental and behavioral outcomes.

The book progresses systematically, starting with gut health basics, moving into connections with mental health disorders, and finally focusing on addiction's influence on cravings and relapse. What sets this book apart is its accessible, evidence-based approach. It avoids technical jargon, offering practical strategies and interventions supported by scientific studies on probiotics, prebiotics, and dietary changes. By drawing connections to fields like nutrition and neuroscience, "Gut Health" provides a holistic, actionable roadmap for improving your gut health and, consequently, your mental well-being.

What We Owe the Future

William MacAskill

An Oxford philosopher makes the case for “longtermism”—that positively influencing the long-term future is a key moral priority of our time 
 
The fate of the world is in our hands. Humanity’s written history spans only five thousand years. Our yet-unwritten future could last for millions more—or it could end tomorrow. Astonishing numbers of people could lead lives of great happiness or unimaginable suffering, or never live at all, depending on what we choose to do today. 
  
In What We Owe The Future, philosopher William MacAskill argues for longtermism, that idea that positively influencing the distant future is a key moral priority of our time. From this perspective, it’s not enough to reverse climate change or avert the next pandemic. We must ensure that civilization would rebound if it collapsed; counter the end of moral progress; and prepare for a planet where the smartest beings are digital, not human. 
  
If we put humanity’s course to right, our grandchildren’s grandchildren will thrive, knowing we did everything we could to give them a world full of justice, hope, and beauty.

Means and Ends - The...

Zoe Baker

An expansive and accessible account of anarchism as a theory of practice. 
 
 
 
Means and Ends is a new overview of the revolutionary strategy of anarchism in Europe and the United States between 1868 and 1939. Zoe Baker clearly and accessibly explains the ideas that historical anarchists developed in order to change the world. This includes their views on direct action, revolution, organization, state socialism, reforms, and trade unions. Throughout, she demonstrates that the reasons anarchists gave for supporting or opposing particular strategies were grounded in a theoretical framework—a theory of practice—which maintained that, as people engage in activity, they simultaneously change the world and themselves. This theoretical framework was the foundation for the anarchist commitment to the unity of means and ends: the means that revolutionaries propose to achieve social change have to involve forms of activity which transform people into individuals who are capable of, and driven to, both overthrow capitalism and the state and build a free society. The consistent heart of anarchism was the idea that anarchist ends can only be achieved through anarchist means. Cutting through misconceptions and historical inaccuracies, Baker draws upon a vast assortment of examples to show how this simple premise underpinned anarchist attempts to put theory into action.

The Secret to Plato's Atlantis

JOHN FRANCIS ARUNDELL

Philosophy is the study of problems concerning matters as fundamental as existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language. Pythagoras (c. 570–495 BC) is said to have coined the term. Philosophical methods were applied through questioning, critical discussion, rational arguments, and systematic presentations on questions like "Is it possible to know anything and to prove it?" Major areas in academic philosophy include metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, political philosophy, logic, philosophy of science, and the history of Western philosophy.
