Supercommunicators
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the author of The Power of Habit, a fascinating exploration of what makes conversations work--and how we can all learn to be supercommunicators at work and in life"A winning combination of stories, studies, and guidance that might well transform the worst communicators you know into some of the best."--Adam Grant, author of Think Again and Hidden Potential ONE OF NPR'S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR - FINALIST FOR THE SABEW BEST IN BUSINESS BOOK AWARD Come inside a jury room as one juror leads a starkly divided room to consensus. Join a young CIA officer as he recruits a reluctant foreign agent. And sit with an accomplished surgeon as he tries, and fails, to convince yet another cancer patient to opt for the less risky course of treatment. In Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg blends deep research and his trademark storytelling skills to show how we can all learn to identify and leverage the hidden layers that lurk beneath every conversation. Communication is a superpower and the best communicators understand that whenever we speak, we're actually participating in one of three conversations: practical (What's this really about?), emotional (How do we feel?), and social (Who are we?). If you don't know what kind of conversation you're having, you're unlikely to connect. Supercommunicators know the importance of recognizing--and then matching--each kind of conversation, and how to hear the complex emotions, subtle negotiations, and deeply held beliefs that color so much of what we say and how we listen. Our experiences, our values, our emotional lives--and how we see ourselves, and others--shape every discussion, from who will pick up the kids to how we want to be treated at work. In this book, you will learn why some people are able to make themselves heard, and to hear others, so clearly. With his storytelling that takes us from the writers' room of The Big Bang Theory to the couches of leading marriage counselors, Duhigg shows readers how to recognize these three conversations--and teaches us the tips and skills we need to navigate them more successfully. In the end, he delivers a simple but powerful lesson: With the right tools, we can connect with anyone.
Fear Knot
Why do we fear Halloween candy but not vending machines? Why do "witch hunts" recur so often in history? How dangerous are serial killers, really? The Fear Knot examines our most common deeply held fears, unpacking which are valid and which are misguided, explaining the history of how our irrational fears developed, and how we can unlearn them. We live in a world seemingly rife with danger, a villainous stranger or new deadly bacteria lurking around every corner. So how do we sort through these fears, determining which are well-founded and which have been manufactured? How can our biases and psychology allow these fears to overtake us, and how can we learn to think logically in a world driven by sensationalism? In this lively and timely tour, psychologist Natashia Swalve and journalism professor Ruth DeFoster lead readers through the history and psychology behind our most visible and sensational cultural fears, beginning with the most personal--fear within our bodies--and moving outward to the home, our country, and finally to our broadest society-level fears. From micro fears, like how our fear of vaccines has led to measles epidemics, to the broad existential dread associated with climate change and gun violence, The Fear Knot examines the toll our fears take on us, on an individual and societal level. Exploring how shared culture, media consumption, and even our own brain can help drive incorrect beliefs about risk, Swalve and DeFoster help readers to make informed, evidence-based decisions about fear and risk-- and along the way, to learn how to think critically, examine your own beliefs, and become confident consumers of media and popular culture. Combining psychology and journalism in short, light-hearted chapters, The Fear Knot gives readers a fresh look at Americans' perceptions of risk and danger, with an emphasis on how to recognize misinformation or biases, updated to include the most recent fears that Americans face in the 21st century-- and the real dangers that we may be ignoring.

Social Psychology in Christian Perspective
Human social interaction is varied, complex and always changing. How we perceive each other and ourselves, how individuals interact within groups, and how groups are structured--all these are the domain of social psychology. Many have doubted, however, that a full-fledged social psychology textbook can successfully be written from a Christian perspective. Inevitably, some say, when attempting to integrate theology and social psychology, one discipline must suffer at the expense of the other. Angela Sabates counters that thinking by demonstrating how these two disciplines can indeed be brought together in a fruitful way. She crisply covers key topics in social psychology, utilizing research that is well grounded in the empirical and theoretical literature, while demonstrating how a distinctively Christian approach can offer fresh ideas and understandings.Why doesn't our behavior always match what we say we believe?How and when are we most likely to be persuaded?What is the social psychology of violence?How reliable are eyewitness testimonies?Are racism and prejudice on the decline or are we just better at hiding them?Sabates draws out the implications of a Christian view of human persons on these and other central subjects within the well-established framework of social psychological study. This volume is for those looking for a core text that makes use of a Christian theological perspective to explore what the science of psychology suggests to us about the nature of human social interaction.About the Series Christian Association for Psychological Studies (CAPS) Books explore how Christianity relates to mental health and behavioral sciences including psychology, counseling, social work, and marriage and family therapy in order to equip Christian clinicians to support the well-being of their clients.

Neither Jew Nor Greek A Story Of Jewish Social Life
Neither Jew nor Greek: A story of Jewish social life is a fictional narrative that explores Jewish identity, social expectations, and interfaith relationships within a tightly knit community. The story follows a young woman navigating the tensions between tradition and personal freedom as she faces challenges shaped by family, faith, and love. The protagonist is introduced as a thoughtful and gifted individual whose life is shaped by her marriage into a wealthy family, arranged more for social advantage than personal happiness. Early in the narrative, her interactions with an ambitious suitor and a charismatic artist reveal her internal conflict between loyalty to her community and the pull of her own aspirations. Through her experiences, the story examines the pressures placed on individuals to conform to established norms while questioning the balance between cultural heritage and personal fulfillment. The opening chapters introduce the characters and their roles in influencing her journey, setting the stage for a broader exploration of faith, class, and gender within a complex social landscape where expectations and desires often clash.
Neighborhood Stories
Neighborhood stories is a collection of fictional narratives capturing life in small Midwestern towns. The stories revolve around a central character, whose reflections and actions serve as a window into the dynamics of Friendship Village and its residents. The narrative addresses themes of community, social change, and the pursuit of meaningful connections in a world that values tradition. In the opening story, the character contemplates the idea of celebrating Christmas as a communal event rather than an isolated family tradition. Conversations with various townspeople reveal a desire to bring the entire community together to celebrate the holiday spirit. Plans lead to the creation of a communal Christmas tree celebration, which symbolizes unity and shared experiences. Through interactions with others and personal musings, the collection skillfully sets the stage for exploring deeper societal issues and the characters' growth. The stories evoke a sense of nostalgia for simpler times while also examining the complexities of small-town life.
The Nervous Child
The nervous child begins with a vivid allegory that introduces the concept of extreme sensitivity in childhood, setting the tone for a detailed examination of how emotional and environmental influences shape mental and physical well-being. The text argues that what might appear as behavioral difficulties often stem from deep-rooted nervous conditions shaped by early care and upbringing. The author emphasizes the pivotal responsibility of parents and caregivers, suggesting that subtle neglect or overindulgence can lead to long-term psychological strain. The book warns against misinterpreting these issues as mere disobedience or weakness, instead urging a nuanced understanding of developmental needs. By establishing the nervous child as a subject requiring both medical and emotional insight, the author builds a framework for addressing specific concerns such as sleep, appetite, and anxiety. The early chapters stress that prevention and compassionate attention are more effective than correction after distress manifests. This introduction sets the stage for a comprehensive guide designed to assist those responsible for a child's upbringing in fostering resilience and emotional stability without resorting to punishment or coercion.
The Guru, the Bagman and the Sceptic
A brilliantly witty book about the intertwined lives of psychoanalyst Ernest Jones, surgeon Wilfred Trotter and the guru of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud. Welsh-born psychoanalyst Ernest Jones was Sigmund Freud's closest associate and most fervent disciple. Clever, self-confident and intensely ambitious, Jones promoted psychoanalysis as a kind of secular religion. Meanwhile, his intimate friend Wilfred Trotter - a celebrated surgeon who saved the life of George V, and who took on Freud as a patient during his London exile - refused to yield to the seductions of the new Freudianism. A quintessentially English figure, Trotter was unimpressed by slick medical careerists, distrusted grand theories and lacked pomposity and self-regard. From the first psychoanalytic congress in Salzburg in 1908 to the illness of King George in the late 1920s and the meeting of Freud and Trotter in 1939, Seamus O'Mahony tells the story of these three figures and their intertwined lives with his customary wit and erudition. Not only the story of the development of psychoanalysis, this is a book about the sexual obsessions of intellectual and bohemian circles in London, Cambridge and Vienna, of Bloomsbury, of doctors in pursuit of wealth and fame. It covers a pivotal thirty years in European history, and reveals how and why the writings of a failed neurologist from Vienna became so influential.

The Narcissist Trap
Millions of people across the globe have unwittingly fallen into The Narcissist Trap. Could it be that you have too?Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is a real, diagnosable personality adaptation and it's a lot more common than you may realise. A narcissist is not just someone who is vain or selfish - it's much more serious than that.Narcissism is a global phenomenon, which hides in plain sight. It affects individuals and society alike, and transcends gender, socioeconomic groups and cultures. The 'Great Pretenders' can be the leader of your country, your doctor, your builder, or your refuse collector. Your local policeman or your yoga teacher. Your 'nasty' boss or your 'nice' co-worker. Your hot date. The very people who are supposed to love you the most - your parents, your sibling, your friend - even your 'soulmate'.And narcissism does not discriminate. It can develop through childhood in anyone who has been brought up in certain difficult ways.Narcissists are the seemingly 'complicated' people in our lives - the saboteurs who blow hot and cold, confusing us. They use us, guilt trip us and hurt us but, when they disparage us, why do we try even harder to gain their approval?Could it be that the complicated people you know are not so complicated after all?Overall, the 'self help movement' has been a wonderful thing - teaching us how to be better, think smarter, evolve - how to ascend to higher levels of awareness and consciousness, even. We are told that we hold all the cards to our life. That we spin the wheel of our fortunes. And if we mess it up, well, that's completely on us. The only thing holding us back is ourselves, we are told.But what if other people in our lives areat least partiallyto blame for our failures and our disappointments?Globally renowned narcissism expert, Dr Supriya McKenna, author of the Amazon number one bestseller, Divorcing a Narcissist, the Lure, the Loss and the Law, invites you on a voyage of discovery. In this book she reveals the truth about what goes on around us, every single day, in her trademark easy-to-read style. Through compelling storytelling, she introduces the different types of narcissists who pass below most people's radars - the 'Great Pretenders' - and explains the psychological manipulation tactics they use to pull victims into their orbits, and trap them there. You can discover how narcissistic you are, by taking the Narcissist Test, and you'll learn how to protect yourself from a narcissist's behaviours, how to communicate with them, and if you choose to, how to best escape their orbit, forever.
The Fearful Mind
Fear is a universal emotion and is typically depicted as a despicable one. While fear is regarded as nature's imperfect wisdom, often undesirable, and a sign of weakness, its role in maintaining human life is overlooked. In the middle of ubiquitous repulsion against fear, there is minuscule literature on the beneficial effects of fear and the consequences of fearlessness. Recent research has thrown light into the unconscious processing of fear. In sharp contrast to the existing literature, this book argues that fear, overriding all other emotions, operates relentlessly in the unconscious mind as a motivating force and renders life compatible with survival. Fear appeals can bring healthy behavioral changes; the stronger the appeal, the more persuasive it is. Moderate anxiety can improve performance that involves dominant responses. Social anxiety is regarded as the root cause of conscientiousness. This hypothesis is supported by the latest research that reveals impaired fear processing in patients with psychopathy, a condition that is associated with crimes. This book expands the concept of eustress, a positive reaction to stress, and describes the beneficial aspects of fear. The book gives a twist to the conventional view of fear as an unwanted emotion and draws a new hypothesis that fear is the primary emotion and a constant psychological operative, a lack of which poses dangerous consequences.
Breaking Awake
From the "talented and impassioned writer" (San Francisco Chronicle) of How to Kill a City, a riveting journey that combines Drug Use for Grown-Ups with How to Do Nothing, as it explores our national mental health and drug use crises while also searching for answers as to how we can find a path to collective healing. Why are so many of us unhappy, anxious, and without purpose? And how can we get better? Several years ago, P.E. Moskowitz had a near-death experience, followed by a nervous breakdown. As they willed themselves back to life using a variety of drugs, both prescription and illicit, they started to wonder: Why are so many of us seeking out these types of interventions to deal with our daily reality? In Breaking Awake, Moskowitz takes us on a kaleidoscopic voyage through our country's collective mental health collapse, and the drugs we take--from fentanyl to SSRIs, to ketamine to LSD and beyond--to cope with the gnawing bleakness of our present moment. In a cross-country tour of drug use--including the free heroin handed out on the streets of Vancouver, a mom in Chicago who has been on SSRIs since childhood and now can't live without them, and ravers in Brooklyn taking drugs most people have never heard of to push the limits of human consciousness--Moskowitz questions whether drugs can spark liberation or simply quell the pain of modern life. Is it time to view drugs differently? And can drugs help us envision a better future?
Embracing Hope
A highly anticipated, rediscovered collection from Viktor Frankl, published for the first time in the United States, exploring freedom, responsibility, and how we can draw meaning from the temporary nature of our lives From the bestselling author of Man's Search for Meaning, which has sold over 18 million copies The Library of Congress lists Man's Search for Meaning as one of the ten most influential books in history. Scientists and artists, politicians and celebrities regularly cite Frankl as one of the most important authors every person should read. Now, there is another book for his devoted fans to add to their collections. Published here for the first time in the United States, Embracing Hope continues Frankl's enduring life's work and provides even more lessons for those searching for meaning and purpose. It's made up of four distinct pieces from Frankl on different themes - all uniting around the idea that we should remain open to life even when we have been subjected to appalling injustice, and even when we are faced with our own mortality and the brief nature of our lives. At a time of global suffering where so many are searching for hope and meaning, Frankl's work seems more relevant and more important than ever. Whether you're a devoted follower of Frankl's work or a newcomer seeking to enrich your understanding of life's purpose, this book promises a captivating journey that will leave you pondering its teachings long after you've turned the final page. Just imagine what would happen, what life would look like, if there were no death. Imagine what it would be like if you could postpone anything and everything, if you could put it off for eternity. You wouldn't have to do anything today or tomorrow. Everything could just as easily be done next week, next month, next year, in a decade, in 100 or 1,000 years. Only in the face of death, only under pressure from the finiteness, the temporal limitation of human existence, is there any point in going about our business, and not only in going about our business, but in experiencing life, and not only in experiencing life but also in loving someone, and even in enduring and surviving something that is inflicted on us.
The Biology of Trauma
This groundbreaking book breaks down the latest research to reveal how trauma impacts our bodies on a cellular level and offers an empowering path to whole-body healing. Today, we know more about mental health than ever before, but traditional medicine still mistakes subtle signs of trauma for stress, anxiety, or chronic disease--sometimes even retraumatizing patients with outdated and misguided methods. Treatment plans that focus on the mind are only addressing the downstream effects. Likewise, common medical approaches to manage symptoms fail to explore root causes and promote genuine recovery. If we want to truly heal, we need to understand trauma as something happening inside of the body--not as a singular external event. Gaining clarity on how our bodies hold onto experiences, impacting both our physical health and our ability to maintain healthy behaviors and relationships, is crucial. That's where Dr. Aimie Apigian's integrative, revolutionary approach comes in. With a decade of clinical research, approachable storytelling, and real-life examples, The Biology of Trauma will show you: How the body absorbs scarring experiences and overwhelm Ways to identify commonly overlooked trauma symptoms like lethargy, fogginess, and unexplained worry Recognize how emotional pain stored in the body affects overall health on a cellular level, even for people with functionally successful lives Prevent trauma-induced changes in your biology that suppress the cycle of recovery Work with your nervous system to safely heal--without risk of retraumatization Perfect for both individuals seeking personal growth and health professionals improving their practice, The Biology of Trauma will help you gain deep insights into your own mind, body, and healing journey.
Schizophrenia
Throughout the world, schizophrenia is a diagnosis now in decline, representing a radical shift in our historical and medical understanding of madness and mental distress. But what does this medical term, first coined by a Swiss psychiatrist in 1908, mean? And why is it increasingly unpopular among patients and the medical establishment? Historian and clinician Orna Ophir unearths the stories of patients and doctors as they struggle to make sense of this debilitating condition. At different times, patients have been depicted as possessed by demons, or simply "inspired," as hearing voices, suffering from a "split-mind," or merely having difficulty in "integrating" experiences. Now, a century after its birth, schizophrenia is increasingly viewed not as a radical, abnormal disease defined by an ever-changing cluster of symptoms, but the extreme end of a spectrum on which we are all located. The story Ophir tells is a hopeful one: As patients and doctors sought to overcome stigma and improve therapeutic outcomes, they have shown ever-greater sensitivity to diversity and difference. Schizophrenia: An Unfinished History gestures toward a future in which clinicians and patients will collaborate in the search for better outcomes.

The God We Are Building
The God We Are Building: The Ethical Crisis We're Coding Into Existence is not another tech book, nor a distant academic critique. It is a wake-up call for a generation sleepwalking into a future designed by algorithms, engineered for profit, and detached from human values.Dr. Milan LaBrey exposes the moral and psychological fault lines that run beneath the systems shaping our lives. From education stripped of critical thinking, to children forming parasocial attachments with AI, to corporations deploying "ethics" as branding rather than accountability, this book delivers an unflinching look at how we got here and where we are headed if nothing changes.At the heart of the book is a question that cannot be ignored: What happens when we build machines that inherit our unresolved wounds, corrupted values, and moral shortcuts? The answer is not theoretical. We see it already, in mental health apps that manipulate vulnerability, in classrooms reduced to data pipelines, in societies anesthetized by endless scrolling while global crises accelerate.This book is both diagnostic and directive. It names the crisis for what it is: not a software problem, but a soulware problem. No amount of regulation or innovation will save us if the humans behind the code remain unhealed, unexamined, and emotionally illiterate.The God We Are Building calls readers to personal and collective responsibility. It introduces the Soul Operating Procedure(TM), a framework designed to safeguard emotional sovereignty and confront the rise of synthetic intimacy and parasocial dependency on AI. It also connects back to the Soul Operating Procedure(TM), a values-based methodology that grounds love, truth, peace, right conduct, and nonviolence into the daily practice of individuals, schools, and leaders.This is not a theory hidden in jargon. It is written to confront, to awaken, and to move readers into action. Whether you are a policymaker, educator, technologist, or parent, this book forces you to ask: Are we educating children for wisdom, or programming them for compliance?Will AI companions replace human intimacy, and if so, what is lost in the trade?Who benefits when our values are outsourced to systems built on profit motives?Can a generation addicted to distraction find the courage to reclaim sovereignty over its own mind?Readers will walk away with clarity, conviction, and a framework for rebuilding what matters most. They will see why the crises of poverty, war, and climate collapse are not failures of data, but failures of values. They will understand why no machine can fix what is broken in human consciousness. And they will recognize that the future of AI, and of humanity, depends not on whether technology is regulated, but on whether we can live and lead from integrity.The God We Are Building is a reflection of humanity, and we can no longer look away. This book belongs in the hands of anyone serious about the intersection of technology, ethics, education, and the future of humanity.
