Sinopse

"Strange Human Habits" explores the fascinating world of human behavior, examining why we engage in peculiar habits. It delves into the psychological underpinnings, cultural norms, and individual predispositions that shape these behaviors. For instance, the book highlights how economic instability can increase hoarding tendencies, revealing the hidden functions behind seemingly irrational actions. Understanding these habits is crucial, as they significantly impact our daily lives, mental health, and social interactions.

 
The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from psychology, social science, and neuroscience to analyze habits, ranging from nail-biting to collecting odd objects. It emphasizes that many habits serve as coping mechanisms or expressions of cultural identity. "Strange Human Habits" starts with core psychological concepts, then explores specific habits through multiple lenses, considering psychological roots, cultural significance, and impact on well-being.

 
This approach offers a compassionate and insightful perspective on human nature, promoting self-awareness and empathy.

Beyond Inclusion - How to Raise Anti-Ableist Kids - cover

Beyond Inclusion - How to Raise...

If the question is "How do you raise anti-ableist kids?" the answer is "Become anti-ableist and then model it through intention and action for your children."

Parents want to be inclusive of their disabled and neurodivergent neighbors and want to pass these values along to their children. What holds them back is not having the education or experience on how to appropriately do this. Beyond Inclusion breaks down fifteen common forms of ableism, with explanations, examples, and first-person accounts. Doing better starts with knowledge.


Author Carrie Cherney Hahn offers activities and perspectives that help parents understand the ableism that exists within them and supports their ability to process and dismantle it so that they can model anti-ableist practices for their kids. Each chapter offers children's resources that parents can use to nurture informed and anti-ableist ideals in their kids.

Inclusion is actually the bare minimum. Our work is to show our children how to become more understanding, more accepting, and more appreciative of disabled and neurodivergent people.

Ngā Kete Mātauranga - Māori...

In this beautiful and transformative book, 24 Māori academics share their personal journeys, revealing what being Māori has meant for them in their work. Their perspectives provide insight for all New Zealanders into how mātauranga is positively influencing the Western-dominated disciplines of knowledge in the research sector. It is a shameful fact, says co-editor Jacinta Ruru in her introduction to Nga Kete Mātauranga, that in 2020, only about 5 percent of academic staff at universities in Aotearoa New Zealand are Māori. Tertiary institutions have for the most part been hostile places for Indigenous students and staff, and this book is an important call for action. ‘It is well past time that our country seriously commits to decolonising the tertiary workforce, curriculum and research agenda,’ writes Professor Ruru.
