The book combines meticulous observational detail with a narrative style that is both engaging and scholarly, illuminating the complexities of ancient Egyptian civilization. Petrie's work is set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, a time when archaeology was emerging as a scientific discipline, reflecting a growing interest in Egypt's past and the burgeoning field of Egyptology. Through a blend of personal anecdotes and technical descriptions, readers are invited to explore the profound insights derived from Petrie's extensive excavations and discoveries, including significant artifacts and the methods that revolutionized archaeological practice.

His background in engineering and profound interest in history equipped him with the tools necessary to uncover the layers of Egypt's rich heritage. His dedication to accurate documentation and preservation of artifacts highlights not only his scholarly commitment but also his desire to elevate archaeology from mere treasure hunting to a respected science, making this work both a personal memoir and an academic contribution. "Ten Years' Digging in Egypt, 1881-1891" is essential reading for anyone interested in the foundations of Egyptology and the evolution of archaeological methods.

Binge Killer

Brittany Forrester

Research on Binge Eating Disorders is limited compared to studies on other eating disorders, including Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa. Given that Binge Eating Disorder recently became an independent diagnosis in the DSM-5, has significant medical implications, and commonly involves psychiatric comorbidity, it is worthwhile to explore contributing factors and evidence-based treatment for the disorder. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is an evidence-based treatment for Binge Eating Disorder, and most experts agree that while it yields positive treatment results, there is room for improvement in treatment. Shame is an essential contributing factor in developing and maintaining Binge Eating Disorder. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on the premise that an individual’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are intertwined and can ultimately be restructured to support more effective actions. Historically routed in treating depression and anxiety, CBT is becoming more prevalent in eating disorder treatment settings, particularly more recently, with Binge Eating Disorder.CBT focuses on three phases of treatment: the behavioral phase, the cognitive phase, and the maintenance and relapse phase.

The Seven Deadly Stupidities -...

George Pillari, Guy Kawasaki

“It’s good to learn from your mistakes. It’s better to learn from other people’s mistakes.” ~Warren Buffet 
Crisis manager George Pillari takes the reader through a series of real-life case studies to show us that decision making in tense situations is a skill to be learned and perfected. Different from most business books that talk about recipes for success (improve your habits, be more productive, etc.), Stupidities highlights what you need to avoid in order to be successful. 
In his foreword to the book, Guy Kawasaki sums it up: 
“80% of success is avoiding stupidity.” 
We learn from the success and failures of Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Oprah Winfrey, Elizabeth Holmes, Google X, JP Morgan, the New York Yankees, the Titan Sub, Thomas Edison, Taylor Swift, and others. 
The Seven Deadly Stupidities: 
Going for the Moonshot 
Surrendering to FOMO 
Relying on Family and Friends 
Being Blinded by the Upside 
Trusting the Media 
Using Quick and Dirty Thinking 
Neglecting to Measure Twice 
There is the amazing story of Soviet General Petrov, who avoided all seven of the stupidities and prevented a global thermonuclear war. 
The chapter-by-chapter format lets the reader thumb through and pick the order to read the book. The summary of each stupidity includes lessons learned and advice on how to avoid the stupidity and “be smarter.” 
We are twice as likely to respond to negative events than positive ones. Pillari uses this behavioral sciences insight to guide the reader through how to learn from the failures of others and become a better decision-maker.
