Sinossi

"Candy Trading Zones" unveils the fascinating world of childhood candy exchanges, revealing how these seemingly simple transactions serve as powerful learning laboratories for essential life skills. Through extensive research spanning three decades and over 1,000 documented trading sessions, the book illuminates how children naturally develop sophisticated economic systems and social hierarchies through their candy-trading activities.The investigation progresses from examining the psychology of value attribution in candy trading to exploring the complex social architectures that emerge in trading zones like playgrounds and post-Halloween gatherings. Children instinctively create elaborate trading networks, complete with their own rules and specialized roles, mirroring adult economic behaviors in surprising ways. Particularly intriguing is the discovery that certain candies consistently command higher trading power regardless of their actual retail value, demonstrating children's innate ability to create and maintain informal economies.Drawing from behavioral economics, developmental psychology, and social science research, the book presents compelling evidence that childhood trading experiences significantly influence adult negotiation capabilities and decision-making skills. Through a combination of observational studies, video analysis, and social network mapping, the research demonstrates how these early trading experiences contribute to the development of crucial life skills, including value assessment, negotiation tactics, and social relationship management. This groundbreaking work offers valuable insights for educators, parents, and child development professionals while maintaining accessibility for general readers interested in understanding the hidden complexity of childhood social interactions.

    Afloat: Small Boats Swell and...

    'Prose that is precise and beautiful as northern light … this book is an absolute delight' MOYA CANNON 
    Join David Gange on a seabound journey along Atlantic coasts and islands, exploring places and ways of life that have been built on small rowed or paddled boats. 
    These small boats outnumber decked ships by at least fifty to one. Yet almost all history writing is about big boats. This is a strange misrepresentation of maritime history that this book seeks to put right. From Ireland and Shetland to the Faroes and across to Greenland, Newfoundland, the US and the Caribbean, Árdras is the story of eight journeys in search of ocean-going rowed and paddled boats. 
    Gange, an award-winning historian, joins community pilgrimages to tiny islands on their saints’ days, and races and regattas that express revivals of commitment to local boats and the community ideals they sustained. Along the way he encounters whales, sharks and icebergs – as well as journeys beneath skies filled, from horizon to horizon, with tens of thousands of seabirds. 
    Small traditional boats fulfil roles in their communities unlike any other supposedly inanimate things. Often treated as living members of the family, with minds and lives of their own, they’ve been essential to many cultures’ ways of living with the seascapes that surround them. This gorgeous and lyrical book offers not only a journey into the past, but a vision of how these ways of life might inform our futures. 
    With the sweep of historical non-fiction and the cadence of literary travel writing, these expeditions map geography through sailing, recreation, and close attention to nature in the north, west and south. The themes and discoveries carry from the indies to the Americas, making a compelling case—despite any criticism—that this is the best kind of maritime history: grounded in real subjects and communities. 
    For fans of Kapka Kassabova (Border), Rebecca Solnit (Recollections of My Non-Existence), Alice Loxton (UPROAR!), Robert Macfarlane (Desert Solitaire), and Chloe Dalton (Raising Hare).

    Terminal lucidity is a relatively common but poorly understood phenomenon. Near the end of life, many people—including those who have suffered brain injuries or strokes, or have been silenced by mental illness or deep dementia—experience what seems a miraculous return. They regain their clarity and energy, are able to talk with families and caregivers, recall their lives and often appear to be aware of their nearing death.In this remarkable audiobook, cognitive scientist and Director of the Viktor Frankl Institute Dr. Alexander Batthyány offers the first major account of terminal lucidity, utilizing hundreds of case studies and his research in the related field of near-death studies to explore the mind, the body, the nature of consciousness, and what the living can learn from those who are crossing the border from life to death.Astonishing, authoritative, and deeply moving, Threshold opens a doorway into one of life's—and death's—most provocative mysteries.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press Essentials.
