  Living with AuDHD is like being a unicorn—misunderstood, contradictory, and often invisible to others. You shine with creativity and innovation, but struggle to fit in - always feeling 'too much'. Autism and ADHD pull you in opposite directions, creating a lifetime of contradictions no one else can see. 
  AuDHD isn’t listed in diagnostic manuals because until 2013, you couldn’t be diagnosed with both conditions - despite a co-occurrence rate of approximately 50-70%. These two neurotypes often clash, like opposing magnets in the brain.ADHD craves novelty; autism resists change.ADHD misses details; autism hyper-focuses on them.ADHD perceives time as ‘now or not now’; autism sticks rigidly to schedules.ADHD seeks stimulation; autism is easily overwhelmed.ADHD thrives in chaos; autism needs structure.ADHD says yes; autism says no.Autism makes the rules, ADHD breaks them.If you’re exhausted reading this, just imagine what it’s like to live it. 
  Leanne Maskell was diagnosed with ADHD at 25, but it took 7 more years to learn she was also autistic. AuDHD: Blooming Differently chronicles her turbulent journey—from a childhood of vulnerability and trauma to a high-achieving model and lawyer, outwardly successful but inwardly struggling. 
  The book exposes the relentless burnout of not understanding your brain and the power of self-awareness in finally thriving. Today, Leanne is a successful author, coach, and National Specialist Coach of the Year. 
  More than just a memoir, this book offers practical insights for AuDHD individuals and those who support them—essential for psychiatrists, educators, and anyone seeking to understand neurodivergence. 
  With lived experience and professional expertise, AuDHD: Blooming Differently is an honest and transformative guide to rewriting the neurodivergent narrative.

  “Tells the story of anger, disillusionment, and determination of Americans to develop a political movement to fight chemical pollution . . . timely.” —The Huffington PostThis book, named one of Booklist’s Top 10 books on sustainability in 2014, is the first to offer a comprehensive examination of the environmental health movement, which unlike many parts of the environmental movement, focuses on ways toxic chemicals and other hazardous agents in the environment effect human health and well-being. Born in 1978 when Lois Gibbs organized her neighbors to protest the health effects of a toxic waste dump in Love Canal, New York, the movement has spread across the United States and throughout the world. By placing human health at the center of its environmental argument, this movement has achieved many victories in community mobilization and legislative reform. In The Rise of the U.S. Environmental Health Movement, environmental health expert Kate Davies describes the movement’s historical, ideological, and cultural roots and analyzes its strategies and successes.“Kate Davies’ excellent book focuses on the role of health in the environmental health movement and encourages us to consider its origins and accomplishments . . . The Rise of the U.S. Environmental Health Movement looks both back and forward to challenge us to consider our current direction. In the future this book will provide readers with an important perspective on how the environmental health movement shaped our society.” —Toxipedia“A well-done history of America’s environmental health movement . . . offers readers valuable information on how grassroots organizing prevents harm from toxic exposures and leads to safe and healthy communities.” —Lois Marie Gibbs, Executive Director, Center for Health, Environment & Justice

  This book “देवताओं का मौन (The Gods have gone silent)” is a philosophical journey into the very living heart of non-dual Vedanta. 
  Today our modern existence rests on the loss and disappearance of the fact-value distinction that embody science and technological development at the expense of what it means to be a living being. It traces the essence of Vedanta through the streets and crossings of modern India and engages with extraordinary living masters in trying to answer some of our most pressing spiritual questions such as:What is this dwelling and who is this dweller.How is the dweller to chalk his way to his being?Who are the modern Rishis and how are we to become one?If Truth cannot be acquired or learnt, then how can it be transmitted. 
  How do we know it, If it is the indescribable, undefinable, unutterable, unspeakable, incommunicable, ineffable; beyond words, beyond description, then by what and in what are we to seek its body.

  The book containing the Constitution of the Confederate States of America serves as a pivotal historical document, encapsulating the legal and governmental framework intended to govern the Confederacy during the American Civil War (1861-1865). Crafted in 1861 by representatives from states that seceded from the Union, this Constitution mirrors the U.S. Constitution in many aspects but with notable divergences, particularly its explicit protection of the institution of slavery and states' rights. It outlines the structure of the Confederate government, detailing the legislative, executive, and judicial branches, while also embedding the ideologies and socio-political ethos of the Confederacy. This document not only sheds light on the political landscape of the time but also offers insight into the ideological rifts that led to one of the most tumultuous and defining periods in American history. As a book, it serves both as a historical artifact and a tool for understanding the complexities of governance, sectionalism, and the enduring impact of these issues on the fabric of the United States.

  The Fall of Rome - The Birth of...

  At its height, the Roman Empire stood as one of the most powerful and influential civilizations in history. Spanning continents, from the windswept moors of Britain to the deserts of Egypt, Rome’s reach seemed boundless. The strength of the empire lay not only in its vast military conquests but in the complexity and efficiency of its administrative systems. Roman law, engineering, and political structure provided a level of organization that allowed a diverse collection of peoples and cultures to function under a single imperial banner. The Pax Romana, a period of relative peace lasting over two centuries, demonstrated Rome’s ability to maintain stability across its vast territories. 
  Roman culture was a dynamic blend of traditions inherited from earlier civilizations and innovations of its own. Latin served as the unifying language, enabling administration and communication across the empire. The arts flourished, with literature, sculpture, and architecture reaching impressive heights. From the poetry of Virgil and Ovid to the engineering marvels of aqueducts and roads, Roman achievements stood as symbols of sophistication. The grandeur of public spaces like the Colosseum and the Roman Forum reflected the empire’s emphasis on civic life and the power of the state. 
  Governance played a key role in the success of Rome. A highly structured bureaucracy allowed the empire to manage its provinces effectively, while a legal system based on Roman law continued to influence Western societies long after the empire’s decline. Though emperors held supreme power, the Senate, magistrates, and various local officials contributed to a layered political system that managed both urban centers and rural territories. Roman citizenship, which could be extended to people across the empire, fostered a sense of unity and shared identity among diverse populations.
