Sinopse

"Social Norm Changes" explores the fascinating phenomenon of how societal expectations transform dramatically within a single generation, offering a comprehensive examination of the mechanisms driving these shifts. Through a blend of historical case studies and contemporary research, the book reveals how individual actions collectively reshape society's fabric, from minor behavioral adjustments to major cultural transformations.

 
The book's three-section structure takes readers on a journey through the foundations of norm formation, beginning with how childhood experiences and peer groups shape our understanding of "normal" behavior. It then examines catalysts of change, including technological advances and social movements, before concluding with practical insights for navigating evolving social standards.

 
What makes this work particularly valuable is its innovative integration of traditional social science research with modern computational modeling, providing unprecedented insights into how behaviors and ideas spread through populations in the digital age. Drawing from diverse fields including sociology, psychology, and behavioral economics, the book presents compelling evidence through longitudinal studies and neurological research.

 
It offers practical applications for various stakeholders, from organizational leaders managing workplace expectations to policymakers implementing social changes. The accessible writing style makes complex concepts understandable while maintaining scholarly rigor, making it equally valuable for social science practitioners and educated general readers interested in understanding the dynamics of social transformation.

    As a child in the foothills of the Himalayas, Priyanka Kumar was entranced by forest-like orchards of diverse and luscious fruit—especially apples. These biodiverse orchards seemed worlds away from the cardboard apples that lined supermarket shelves. Yet on a small patch of woods near her home in Santa Fe, Kumar discovered a wild apple tree—and the seeds of an odyssey were planted. In The Light Between Apple Trees, Kumar takes us on a dazzling and transformative journey to rediscover apples, unearthing a rich and complex history while illuminating how we can reimagine our relationship with nature.Apples are popular, but in our everyday lives we rarely encounter more than a handful of varieties: of the sixteen thousand apple varieties once celebrated in America, scarcely a fifth remain accessible. Kumar reveals the richness of a hidden world. She brilliantly weaves together science and childhood memories with the apple's storied history, from its roots in Kazakhstan to Spanish orchards in the Southwest and Thomas Jefferson's beloved Monticello fruitery.The Light Between Apple Trees is a lyric odyssey that will forever change how you look at an "apple a day." Kumar shows how—if we follow untamed paths—the tang and texture of an apple can lead us back to the wild.

    “A brilliant, blistering read.” — Heather O’Neill, author of When We Lost Our Heads
    		 
    A scorching examination of how we treat endometriosis today 
    		 
    Have you ever been told that your pain is imaginary? That feeling better just takes yoga, CBD oil, and the blood of a unicorn on a full moon? That’s the reality of the more than 190 million people suffering the excruciating condition known as endometriosis. This disease affecting one in ten cis women and uncounted numbers of others is chronically overlooked, underfunded, and misunderstood — and improperly treated across the medical system. Discrimination and medical gaslighting are rife in endo care, often leaving patients worse off than when they arrived. 
    		 
    Journalist Tracey Lindeman knows it all too well. Decades of suffering from endometriosis propelled the creation of BLEED — part memoir, part investigative journalism, and all scathing indictment of how the medical system fails patients. Through extensive interviews and research, BLEED tracks the modern endo experience to the origins of medicine and how the system gained its power by marginalizing women. Using an intersectional lens, BLEED dives into how the system perpetuates misogyny, racism, classism, ageism, transphobia, fatphobia, and other prejudices to this day.
    		 
    BLEED isn’t a self-help book. It’s an evidence file and an eye-opening, enraging read. It will validate those who have been gaslit, mistreated, or ignored by medicine and spur readers to fight for nothing short of revolution.
