Sinopse

Natural Beats Synthetic explores the hidden dangers lurking in our laundry detergents, questioning whether "eco-friendly" labels truly guarantee safety for us and the environment. Focusing on detergent ingredients, the book dives into the potential health risks, such as allergens and endocrine disruptors, linked to common chemicals found in both synthetic and some eco-labeled detergents. It also investigates the environmental impact, emphasizing biodegradability and aquatic toxicity, revealing how these everyday products contribute to water pollution.

 
The book presents a comprehensive ingredient analysis, moving from an introduction to detergent chemistry to examining health impacts and environmental fates in dedicated sections. It compares specific eco-detergent formulations against conventional options using safety data and independent reports. This approach empowers consumers to critically evaluate eco-labels and ingredient lists, making informed purchasing decisions.

 
Ultimately, Natural Beats Synthetic encourages a discerning approach to consumer science, urging readers to look beyond marketing claims and assess the real-world impact of their detergent choices. By presenting scientific evidence and practical recommendations, the book bridges the gap between advertising and reality, enabling informed decisions that benefit both personal health and the environment.

    "Every day of our lives, we make judgments—and we don’t always do a very good job of it. Thinking 101 is an invaluable resource to anyone who wants to think better. In remarkably clear language, and with engaging and often funny examples, Woo-kyoung Ahn uses cutting-edge research to explain the mistakes we often make—and how to avoid them.”—Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project and The Four Tendencies"Thinking 101 is a must-read—a smart and compellingly readable guide to cutting-edge research into how people think. Building from her popular Yale course, Professor Woo-kyoung Ahn shows how a better understanding of how our minds work can help us become smarter and wiser—and even kinder."—Paul Bloom, Professor of Psychology, University of Toronto, Brooks and Suzanne Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Yale University, and the author of The Sweet Spot"With an engaging and fresh narration, Lessa presents each fascinating chapter in a fun and easy way that helps listeners understand how to think more clearly and constructively."- AudioFilePsychologist Woo-kyoung Ahn devised a course at Yale called “Thinking” to help students examine the biases that cause so many problems in their daily lives. It quickly became one of the university’s most popular courses. Now, for the first time, Ahn presents key insights from her years of teaching and research in a book for everyone.She shows how “thinking problems” stand behind a wide range of challenges, from common, self-inflicted daily aggravations to our most pressing societal issues and inequities. Throughout, Ahn draws on decades of research from other cognitive psychologists, as well as from her own groundbreaking studies. And she presents it all in a compellingly accessible style that uses fun examples from pop culture, anecdotes from her own life, and illuminating stories from history and the headlines.Thinking 101 is an audiobook that goes far beyond other resources on thinking, showing how we can improve not just our own daily lives through better awareness of our biases but also the lives of everyone around us. It is, quite simply, required listening for everyone who wants to think—and live—better.A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books

    North America was not empty nor were its inhabitants savages when Europeans arrived in 1492. Quite the opposite, North America was thickly populated by indigenous people who lived in clean cities, had a thriving economy, and transformed the landscape into bountiful productivity. Forgotten Landscapes reveals the incredible extent to which Native Americans manipulated and shaped their surrounding environs through agricultural practices and urban engineering, resulting in one of the most prosperous civilizations of their time.Well before European contact, North American cities and villages were bound together by an intricate trade network. Today, Spiro Mound in rural Oklahoma is a few piles of dirt, not on the road to anywhere. But at the time of the Mississippian civilization, about a thousand years ago, it was one of the largest cities in the world. With the controlled use of fire, Native Americans had transformed thick forests into open woodlands and expanded the ranges of prairies. Through organized hunting, Natives controlled the populations of prey animals such as passenger pigeons, and when Native populations grew large enough, they developed agriculture including irrigated crops, and even orchards. In this fascinating and overdue book, author Stanley A. Rice shows his audience the Pre-Columbian landscape of America that has been largely forgotten.
