The Illuna Paradox: Temporal Shift
When Galaxies Collide Time is clearly being warped out there! I mean take a look at the unstable temporal anomalies popping up all over the damn place! These displaced artefacts could have come from anywhere...or any time for that matter! No human being has ever been present to experience what would happen when galaxies collide. For thousands of years scientists and astronomers alike have wondered what the effects of the Illuna-Magellanic celestial event would entail. Professor Benjamin Gable and his crew begin to journey through the cosmos on board the spaceship Procules in search of some much needed answers. While many citizens of the Cideen Republic remain ignorant to the perilous effects of the galactic collision, the crew must venture out into the sea of stars to discover the reality of humanitys dire situation. There would be no telling of what other calamities awaited them around the next corner- would humanity be able to survive as a species? Or would they fall into chaos and ruin?

Rewilding Agricultural Landscapes
As the world population grows, so does the demand for food, putting unprecedented pressure on agricultural lands. In many desert dryland regions, however, intensive cultivation is causing their productivity to decline precipitously. "Rewilding" the least productive of these landscapes offers a sensible way to reverse the damage, recover natural diversity, and ensure long-term sustainability of remaining farms and the communities they support. This accessibly written, groundbreaking contributed volume is the first to examine in detail what it would take to retire eligible farmland and restore functioning natural ecosystems. The lessons in Rewilding Agricultural Landscapes will be useful to conservation leaders, policymakers, groundwater agencies, and water managers looking for inspiration and practical advice for solving the complicated issues of agricultural sustainability and water management.
Psychology of Change

Indeed, in many people’s minds, the person is understood to be set in stone, as a function of early socialization and reaching a particular stage of development, evolutionary processes, or traits that are hard-wired from the beginning by genes and biology. However, in recent years, important scientific developments in theory and research concerning the psychology of change have emerged. In contrast to the commonly held conception of the individual as fi...
Dark and Destructive Leadership
Destructive leadership has become an umbrella term for a range of toxic leader behaviors, intentional or unintentional, which are associated with negative outcomes for followers and/or organizations (Einarsen et al., 2007; Krasikova et al., 2013; Mitchell et al., 2023; Schyns & Schilling, 2013; Thoroughgood, 2021). By contrast, dark leadership concerns the psychological mindset of the leaders, not just what they do, but also why they do it (Hogan & Sherman, 2022). To this end, it assesses the traits, motives, abilities, and perceptual tendencies that lead to patterns of toxic leader behaviors that we label as being destructive (see Hogan et al., 2021). This book is intended to provide an in ...

The book is organized around two overarching and interrelated themes, with the first focusing on assessing the person and the situation, covering methodological advances and techniques for inferring and measuring characteristics, and showing how they can be instantiated for measurement and predic...
