  The Secure Soul - Finding Inner...

  A secure soul is built from the inside out. This book will guide you through the inner work of restoring your own sense of safety and trust—anchored in God's unshakable love—so that your foundation for all other connections becomes steady and strong. From this place, you can approach every relationship, every loss, and every new beginning with confidence. Even when trust has been broken externally, it can still be anchored securely within. 
  The ache of disconnection isn't only about feeling unseen by a parent, distant from a partner, or excluded by a friend. It's not just a byproduct of busy lives or too many notifications. It runs deeper. It's a spiritual ache that reminds us: we long for a connection that reaches beneath our defenses and restores us from the inside out. 
  Attachment isn't just something that happens between people—it's something that also happens within yourself. The same dynamics of fear and safety, pursuit and withdrawal, need and shame, get played out inside your own inner world. 
  When we begin to notice, tend, and nourish that inner ecosystem—gently, patiently, and in the presence of something greater than ourselves—we begin to re-cultivate something sacred: A home within ourselves. A secure base from the inside out. And a connectedness with God. 
  In The Secure Soul, Dr. Cook shows you how to:practice the ongoing rhythm of connection through learning how to recognize distance and be equipped to reconnect to the center of loving presence.recognize—the moment when you've shifted out of connection into anxiety, overwhelmedness, fear, distance, or shut down.return—to the sacred center within, to God's presence, to Love itself.identify the controller, shadow, and younger parts of yourself that make up the landscape of your soul.cultivate an inner sense of belonging and connectedness by diagnosing where you have become disconnected from your own soul. 
    
  Dr. Cook paints an intimate picture of what secure attachment can look like in your real life—not as a psychological label, but as an intimate invitation that is alive in every relationship, every silence, every longing, always unfolding in every moment you're alive. And it starts not only in the space between us, but deep inside your own soul.

  Social Capital: Life online in...

  A David and Goliath story about Ireland’s role as prime real estate for the world’s largest tech multinationals, and the considerable impact it has had on us as individuals. 
  At the start of the millennium, the Tech giants landed on Ireland’s shores. Dublin, once one of Europe’s poorest cities, became a beacon of Silicon Valley’s promise of progress and power. As the face of the capital was remade in the image of Big Tech, Irish society embraced technology like no other. Romantic Ireland was dead and gone: social media was here to stay. 
  In this provocative account, Aoife Barry explores the human cost of Ireland’s Faustian pact with Big Tech, from the local communities uprooted by Google to the traumatised moderators squirrelled in the capital’s pockets, keeping the internet safe at a terrible price. Unsettling, insightful, and wryly funny, she paints a portrait of a country addicted to the internet, refreshing the news, refreshing Twitter, scrolling and scrolling towards a feverish future. She turns an equally honest eye on her own life online, from her humble beginnings using dial-up in her parent’s kitchen to working for Ireland’s first digital-only newsroom, and asks what we bargain in exchange for life in the metaverse. 
  Social Capital is the coming of age story of Ireland 3.0: set against the backdrop of the tech revolution, it chronicles how we collapse the boundary between physical and virtual reality, and where we might go from here. 
  Barry's new book, Social Capital, is a popular science exploration into the world of computers and information technology. It's a top pick for anyone interested in the intersection of culture, economics, and the latest developments in the tech industry. 
  For fans of Bill Gifford (Ledyard), Britney Spears (The woman in me), Dolly Alderton (Everything I Know About Love), Bono (Surrender), and Ian H. Robertson (How Confidence Works).

  Being Really Confused - A Guide...

  Ever opened Being and Time and wondered if your brain had a stroke? 
  Ever wanted to understand Heidegger, but all you got was a migraine and a vague sense of personal failure? 
  This is the book for you. 
  Being Really Confused is the hilariously brutal, no-holds-barred, sarcasm-soaked guide to Martin Heidegger’s philosophical fever dream. Whether you’re a burned-out philosophy major, a curious masochist, or someone who just wants to sound terrifyingly deep at brunch, this book unpacks the most infamously unreadable thinker of the 20th century—with jokes, rants, and zero patience for pretension. 
  Inside, you'll find: 
  What “Dasein” actually means (spoiler: it’s just you, but anxious) 
  How to ruin conversations with phrases like “Being-toward-death” 
  Why “the they” is probably responsible for your haircut 
  And how to survive Being and Time without filing a lawsuit against your own brain 
  Equal parts roast and revelation, this book doesn’t just explain Heidegger—it drags him, hugs him, then drags him again. 
  Read it if: 
  You want to laugh at existential dread 
  You love philosophy but hate suffering 
  You’ve been pretending to understand Heidegger and want to finally maybe mean it 
  Warning: May cause spontaneous existential crises, unbearable smugness, and the urge to buy a black turtleneck.

  Scars on the Land - An...

  Scars on the Land is the first comprehensive history of American slavery to examine how the environment fundamentally formed enslaved people's lives and how slavery remade the Southern landscape. Over two centuries, from the establishment of slavery in the Chesapeake to the Civil War, one simple calculation had profound consequences: rather than measuring productivity based on outputs per acre, Southern planters sought to maximize how much labor they could extract from their enslaved workforce. They saw the landscape as disposable, relocating to more fertile prospects once they had leached the soils and cut down the forests. On the leading edge of the frontier, slavery laid waste to fragile ecosystems, draining swamps, clearing forests to plant crops and fuel steamships, and introducing devastating invasive species. On its trailing edge, slavery left eroded hillsides, rivers clogged with sterile soil, and the extinction of native species. While environmental destruction fueled slavery's expansion, no environment could long survive intensive slave labor. The scars manifested themselves in different ways, but the land too fell victim to the slave owner's lash.

  The 20th anniversary edition of the definitive classic on defeating obsessive-compulsive behavior, with all-new material from the author. 
   
  An estimated 5 million Americans suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and live diminished lives in which they are compelled to obsess about something or to repeat a similar task over and over. Traditionally, OCD has been treated with Prozac or similar drugs. The problem with medication, aside from its cost, is that 30 percent of people treated don't respond to it, and when the pills stop, the symptoms invariably return.  
  In Brain Lock, Jeffrey M. Schwartz, M.D., presents a simple four-step method for overcoming OCD that is so effective, it's now used in academic treatment centers throughout the world. Proven by brain-imaging tests to actually alter the brain's chemistry, this method doesn't rely on psychopharmaceuticals. Instead, patients use cognitive self-therapy and behavior modification to develop new patterns of response to their obsessions. In essence, they use the mind to fix the brain.  
  Using the real-life stories of actual patients, Brain Lock explains this revolutionary method and provides readers with the inspiration and tools to free themselves from their psychic prisons and regain control of their lives.
