Sinopsis

"Mental Health Myths" offers a groundbreaking exploration of why misconceptions about psychological well-being persist in our modern society, despite significant scientific advances. This comprehensive work bridges the gap between clinical research and public understanding, systematically dismantling common myths surrounding conditions like depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder through a careful blend of scientific evidence and accessible explanation.

 
The book's unique three-part structure begins with the biological foundations of mental health, progressing through an analysis of widespread misconceptions to practical strategies for improving mental health literacy. Drawing from three decades of research, including findings from the World Health Organization, it reveals compelling evidence that regions with better mental health understanding show higher treatment success rates.

 
The integration of neuroscience with social psychology provides readers with a holistic understanding of how mental health conditions actually manifest, rather than how they're commonly portrayed in media. Written in an engaging, professional style that maintains scientific rigor while remaining accessible, this work serves both healthcare professionals and general readers.

 
It stands out for its practical approach to challenging stigma and improving mental health communication, supported by real-world case studies and epidemiological data. The book's interdisciplinary perspective, connecting psychology with public health and sociology, offers readers a comprehensive toolkit for understanding and discussing mental health issues while promoting evidence-based approaches to treatment and support.

Against the Grain - How Farmers...

Roger Thurow

Farmers in some of the world's oldest agricultural areas were toiling year after year, only to find that modern industrial agriculture was turning on itself. Industrial agriculture's effects on our climate and environment were multiplying and worsening, until the very families growing the world's food were starving. 
 
 
 
They terraced the land to catch more rainwater and prevent soil runoff; they planted a diverse range of vegetables that would balance the nutrients in the soil; they replaced commercial fertilizers with organic matter from their own farms; they planted more trees and drought-resistant grains; and, perhaps most importantly, they taught their communities by example that these regenerative farming methods paid off—both in nourishing their families and in bringing their land back to life. 
 
 
 
Award-winning author and journalist Roger Thurow has traveled to Ethiopia, Uganda, Kenya, India, Guatemala, Peru, and the United States to share their stories, highlighting the conflicts inherent in our most important human endeavor: feeding the world using the methods of industrial agriculture is stripping the land of its ability to feed future generations. But these farmers are starting a new kind of revolution, nourishing both humans and the land, and following their lead could help us solve one of the great crises of our time.

Poetry Says It Better - Poems to...

Ellen Burstyn

Read by Ellen Burstyn
The legendary Academy Award–winning actress reflects on her love affair with poetry and makes us believers.
In this beautiful book, Ellen Burstyn celebrates poetic magic and shares her favorite works. Now into her nineties, Ellen reveals she had an evangelical response to learning poetry even as a child and would memorize and recite the works of Edna St Millay to envelope herself in the poet’s deeper emotional landscape. As she continued her epic rise through film and theater—eventually winning an Oscar, a Tony, a BAFTA, and an Emmy—poetry gave voice to her experience as no other literary art form could. She never went anywhere without her curated “poetry pack.” No matter where she was in the world, while waiting on set, in rehearsal, on a train, or just relaxing, she found comfort in verse.
For nearly nine decades, poetry has led Ellen on a life of adventure, from a pilgrimage to Rumi’s birthplace to a friendship with Maya Angelou, during which the poet read her work in Ellen’s movie trailer, to selecting the poems to join her in love, in motherhood and in grief.
Featuring work by W.B. Yeats, Edna Vincent St. Millay, Rainer Maria Rilke, William Wordsworth, Edgar Allan Poe, William Ernest Henley, and others, Poetry Says It Better is a perfect daily companion for everyone looking to deepen and add meaning to their life experience. Throughout, Burstyn’s charming voice and luminous insights help readers meet her in this poetic celebration—soul to soul.

The Expanding Circle - Ethics...

Peter Singer

What is ethics? Where do moral standards come from? Are they based on emotions, reason, or some innate sense of right and wrong? For many scientists, the key lies entirely in biology—especially in Darwinian theories of evolution and self-preservation. But if evolution is a struggle for survival, why are we still capable of altruism? 
 
 
 
In his classic study The Expanding Circle, Peter Singer argues that altruism began as a genetically based drive to protect one's kin and community members but has developed into a consciously chosen ethic with an expanding circle of moral concern. Drawing on philosophy and evolutionary psychology, he demonstrates that human ethics cannot be explained by biology alone. Rather, it is our capacity for reasoning that makes moral progress possible. In a new afterword, Singer takes stock of his argument in light of recent research on the evolution of morality.
