Hedonic Eating
While the prevalence of overweight and obesity has continued to increase, the understanding of the complex causes of these conditions by academics and the public has not. Much of the current literature regarding excess body weight focuses on reducing calorie intake, ignoring the complicated biological and behavioral nature of overeating. Hedonic Eating, Second Edition, explores the behavioral, biological, and social rewards of eating in our current world saturated with hyper-palatable food. Comprehensive chapters cover topics ranging from the neurochemistry of food reward to the hotly debated concept of 'food addiction', while providing relevant and up-to-date information from the current body of scientific literature regarding food reward. This new edition has been fully updated to reflect emerging research and evidence on issues such as eating behavior, psychological factors, metabolic influences, and the environment. New research has deepened our understanding of the interrelationship between the brain, behavior, and food consumption. This book offers another perspective to the current understanding of the issues of overeating and obesity rooted in scientific research.

Trans Men in Malaysia
Cutting across the disciplines of trans gender studies and psychology, this book examines the psychological decision-making process behind twenty-three Malaysian trans men's journeys navigating masculinity from childhood through adulthood. Using interviews and grounded theory methodology, the author analyses how trans men reclaim and redefine a form of resilient masculinity that seeks to divorce itself from patriarchal definitions, done through the exploration of relationships with their identities and de-linking male identity from masculinity. The book examines how trans men redefine their masculinity while maintaining proximity to femininity. Trans men unpack expectations of masculinity from Malaysian perspective on race and gender, to centre their decision-making on their own values and beliefs.

Explores racial/ethnic identity development as a life-long process of negotiating self, context, and others' perceptions and behaviors from early adolescence to adulthood. Guided by early foundational and recent compelling theories on race/ethnicity and identity development across the lifespan, Celina Chatman Nelson, Stephen C.

I Heard There Was a Secret Chord
Music is one of humanity's oldest medicines. From the Far East to the Ottoman Empire, Europe to Africa and the pre-colonial Americas, many cultures have developed their own rich traditions for using sound and rhythm to ease suffering, promote healing, and calm the mind.In his latest work, neuroscientist and New York Times best-selling author Daniel J. Levitin (This Is Your Brain on Music) explores the curative powers of music, showing us how and why it is one of the most potent therapies today. He brings together, for the first time, the results of numerous studies on music and the brain, demonstrating how music can contribute to the treatment of a host of ailments, from neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, to cognitive injury, depression, and pain.Levitin is not your typical scientist--he is also an award-winning musician and composer, and through lively interviews with some of today's most celebrated musicians, from Sting to Kent Nagano and Mari Kodama, he shares their observations as to why music might be an effective therapy, in addition to plumbing scientific case studies, music theory, and music history. The result is a work of dazzling ideas, cutting-edge research, and jubilant celebration. I Heard There Was a Secret Chord highlights the critical role music has played in human biology, illuminating the neuroscience of music and its profound benefits for those both young and old.

The Wrong Man
This story is inspired by true events that many of us have experienced at some point in our lives. Every occurrence has a purpose, allowing us to learn valuable lessons. Life can be viewed as a series of stepping stones; everything the universe presents is meant for our growth, but how we respond is ultimately up to us. True love does exist, but often people choose to overlook its true nature, frequently due to fear or external pressure like social status or familial expectations. The tale of Adam and Eve illustrates that genuine love always finds a way back home. It also emphasizes that love requires patience and highlights the importance of learning to love oneself before loving another. Relationships require effort, but for the right person, it s worth it. I believe that everyone has one true love in their lifetime and that we all have a destined path. Everything happens as it should; no one can escape their destiny. So why worry? What is meant for you will always find its way back.
Un-Help
This monograph offers an epistemic and psychological critique of the self-help and mindset industry, arguing that it operates not as a space of healing but as a cultural and economic engine that commodifies suffering. The industry thrives by sustaining the very inadequacy it claims to resolve, because it depends on the idea that one is never enough. Platforms, algorithms and influencer culture are fertile ground for marketing an industry that pretends to heal but deepens existential alienation. The modern subject is not understood but transformed into a perpetual project for optimization. This work calls for the reclamation of depth, relation, and existential honesty: a psychology that refuses to become a subscription model.
