Summary

Memory Boost Tips transforms cognitive science into practical tools for everyday life, arguing that memory isn’t fixed but a trainable skill. Blending neuroscience and psychology, the book reveals how techniques like spaced repetition—a learning method proven to boost retention by 35% compared to cramming—and the ancient method of loci (linking memories to visual landmarks) can reshape brain function. Central to its approach is neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to rewire itself, which readers harness through exercises grounded in decades of research, from Hermann Ebbinghaus’s memory decay studies to modern fMRI insights.

The book progresses from explaining core memory systems to actionable strategies, emphasizing why methods work. For instance, it links dopamine release during practice to stronger neural pathways, offering deeper motivation for habit change. Lifestyle factors like sleep’s role in memory consolidation and omega-3s’ cognitive benefits are woven into the science, avoiding quick fixes for sustainable growth. Unlike generic self-help guides, it balances mechanistic explanations (e.g., hippocampus function) with relatable examples, such as using mnemonics to learn languages or prepare presentations.

Final chapters synthesize techniques into customizable plans, supported by checklists and study summaries, making advanced concepts accessible to students, professionals, and aging adults alike. By demystifying brain science, the book empowers readers to view memory not as a flaw but a dynamic resource waiting to be unlocked.

White Lies - Nine Ways to Expose...

Daniel Hill

What can you do to be a force for racial justice? 
Many White Christians are eager to fight against racism and for racial justice. But what steps can they take to make good, lasting change? How can they get involved without unintentionally doing more harm than good? 
In this practical and illuminating guide drawn from more than twenty years of cross-cultural work and learning from some of the greatest leaders of color, pastor and racial justice advocate Daniel Hill provides nine practices rooted in Scripture that will position you to be an active supporter of inclusion, equality, and racial justice. With stories, studies, and examples from his own journey, Hill will show you:How to get free of the impact of White supremacy individually and recognize that it works systemicallyHow to talk about race in an intelligent and respectful way How to recognize which strategies are helpful and which are harmfulWhat you can do to make a difference every day, after protests and major events 
We cannot experience wholistic justice without confronting and dismantling White supremacy. But as we follow Jesus--the one who is supreme over all things--into overturning false power systems, we will become better advocates of the liberating and unconditional love that God extends to us all.

Nine Years Among the Indians:...

Herman Lehmann

Nine Years Among the Indians is an autobiography of Herman Lehmann, who was an eleven-year-old boy when he was captured by a raiding party of eight to ten Apaches alongside his older brother Willie. The Apaches called Lehmann "En Da" (White Boy). He spent about six years with them and became assimilated into their culture, rising to the position of petty chief. As a young warrior, one of his most memorable battles was a running fight with the Texas Rangers on August 24, 1875, which took place near Fort Concho, about 65 miles west of the site of San Angelo, Texas.The phenomenon of a white child raised by Indians made Herman Lehmann a notable figure in the United States.

Stolen Honor - Falsely Accused...

Clint Lorance

The captivating account of how Clint Lorance, a soldier who became a scapegoat for a corrupt military hierarchy, was falsely charged with war crimes, imprisoned, and eventually pardoned by President Trump. While out on patrol in Afghanistan, Clint Lorance learned that two men, both suspected suicide bombers, were speeding toward a crowded city on motorcycles. Lorance couldn't see them, but his men on the ground had clear shots. After a split second, he gave the order to shoot, killing both men. In the months that followed, Lorance was arrested by the military and put on trial for war crimes. Prosecutors claimed that the order he gave constituted an act of premeditated murder, and they sentenced him to twenty years in prison. In Stolen Honor, Lorance finally tells the story of this event and the trial it led to -- how the prosecutors declined to admit clear-cut evidence that would have exonerated him, how the men in his unit turned on him, and why he still believes he was right to give the order to shoot. It is a story that stretches from small-town America to the deserts of Afghanistan, from the White House to the tiny jail cell where Lorance spent six years waiting on his exoneration, which finally came when President Trump pardoned him in 2019. The book also discusses Lorance's plans to attend law school and help reform the broken military justice system.

Connections Over Compliance -...

PhD Lori L. Desautels, Michael...

The developing brains of our children need to "feel" safe. 
 
 
 
Children who carry chronic behavioral challenges are often met with reactive and punitive practices that can potentially reactivate the developing stress response systems. 
 
 
 
This book deeply addresses the need for coregulatory and relational touch point practices, shifting student-focused behavior management protocols to adult regulated brain and body states which are brain aligned, preventive, and relational discipline protocols. This new lens for discipline benefits all students by reaching for sustainable behavioral changes through brain state awareness rather than compliance and obedience.

No Place Like Nome - The Bering...

Michael Engelhard

Beyond Sled Dogs and Gold 
 
 
 
Somewhere between myths and hard facts you find Nome, poised also between yesterday and tomorrow. Drawing on his background in anthropology and an equal passion for history, Michael Engelhard surveys the seam that links two neighboring continents through the lens of one pivotal city. The region's legacy of millennia shines on pages enriched by this writer's recollections—from mammoths to Cold War monuments, from a spa turned orphanage, to cyclist miners and shaman hoards. Meet the explorers and adventurers, reindeer herders and hustlers, the dancers, drummers, dreamers, warriors, walrus-tusk carvers, and whalers, clergy, foragers, and photographers who shaped a place of conflicting visions as thoroughly as it shaped them.
