Stress Less and Enjoy Each Day
Take a deep breath—less stress is just around the corner! Do you feel like your stress levels are off the charts? We hurry through life from one place to the next, one task to the next, focused on conquering the next obstacle, making the next deal, running the next errand—and feeling like we’ll never have enough time to do it all. The truth is, we have all the time in the world . . . if we just realize we can choose whether to live panicked or peaceful, stressed or calm. Learn how to slow down long enough to see through the clutter . . . and to choose less stress. David Zerfoss offers a new perspective on how to approach life differently and gain the balance you desire. Learn to rely on the One who calms each storm and can help you find calm in every day. Motivational stories, quotes, and questions for reflection will guide you down that pathway and into a life of less stress.
Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
The quotes in this book are designed to help you avoid self-imposed adversities by always thinking first of your options before your actions, in order to avoid permanent irreversible adverse consequences. The choices you make or fail to make will always impact the outcome of your future. A thousand thoughts before you act, is better than a thought after the fact, because it will be too late to react.

You should always be mindful of your irreversible social media content before it is sent because it wil...

Defect Or Defend
Why do certain militaries brutally suppress popular demonstrations, while others support the path to political liberalization by backing mass social movements? Although social movements and media can help destabilize authoritarian governments, not all social protest is effective or culminates in the toppling of dictatorships. Frequently, the military’s response determines the outcome. In Defect or Defend, Terence Lee uses four case studies from Asia to provide insight into the military’s role during the transitional phase of regime change. Lee compares popular uprisings in the Philippines and Indonesia—both of which successfully engaged military support to bring down authoritarian rule...

Planetary Health: Protecting Nature to Protect Ourselves provides a readable introduction to this new paradigm. With an interdisciplinary approach, the book addresses a wide range of health impacts felt in the Anthropocene, including food and nutrition, i...

The Symbolic Species: The Co-evolution of Language and the Brain
"A work of enormous breadth, likely to pleasantly surprise both general readers and experts."—New York Times Book Review This revolutionary book provides fresh answers to long-standing questions of human origins and consciousness. Drawing on his breakthrough research in comparative neuroscience, Terrence Deacon offers a wealth of insights into the significance of symbolic thinking: from the co-evolutionary exchange between language and brains over two million years of hominid evolution to the ethical repercussions that followed man's newfound access to other people's thoughts and emotions. Informing these insights is a new understanding of how Darwinian processes underlie the brain's development and function as well as its evolution. In contrast to much contemporary neuroscience that treats the brain as no more or less than a computer, Deacon provides a new clarity of vision into the mechanism of mind. It injects a renewed sense of adventure into the experience of being human.
