In the last 50 years or so, psychological science has shed light on the essence of what makes us human—why we experience a range of feelings from joy to sadness, anger to fear, and compassion to contempt. Yet, the science of emotion remains mostly inaccessible to the curious reader and those outside academic circles. The revised edition of The Science of Feelings offers the most up-to-date research findings, data and insights on the study of emotions, simplifying specialised knowledge into engaging, easy-to-read language. It discusses how emotions, empathy and well-being interact with technology in the age of AI and outlines key takeaways of each chapter for easy understanding.

From the co-author of the viral New York Times bestseller This is How You Lose the Time War. "Sharp, original, passionate." —NPR Max Gladstone's Craft Sequence chronicles the epic struggle to build a just society in a modern fantasy world. The great city of Alt Coulumb is in crisis. The moon goddess Seril, long thought dead, is back--and the people of Alt Coulumb aren't happy. Protests rock the city, and Kos Everburning's creditors attempt a hostile takeover of the fire god's church. Tara Abernathy, the god's in-house Craftswoman, must defend the church against the world's fiercest necromantic firm--and against her old classmate, a rising star in the Craftwork world. As if that weren't enough, Cat and Raz, supporting characters from Three Parts Dead, are back too, fighting monster pirates; skeleton kings drink frozen cocktails, defying several principles of anatomy; jails, hospitals, and temples are broken into and out of; choirs of flame sing over Alt Coulumb; demons pose significant problems; a farmers' market proves more important to world affairs than seems likely; doctors of theology strike back; Monk-Technician Abelard performs several miracles; The Rats! play Walsh's Place; and dragons give almost-helpful counsel. Set in a phenomenally built world in which lawyers ride lightning bolts, souls are currency, and cities are powered by the remains of fallen gods, Max Gladstone's Craft Sequence introduces readers to a modern fantasy landscape and an epic struggle to build a just society.

""Tiny Predators"" unveils the hidden world of small-sized hunters, showcasing how creatures like praying mantises, ants, and venomous frogs have evolved into apex predators in their ecosystems. Despite their size, these tiny predators play crucial roles in maintaining ecological balance. The book highlights how their predatory techniques, refined through evolution, are remarkably effective. For example, certain venomous frogs possess toxins potent enough to subdue prey much larger than themselves, demonstrating that size is no barrier to successful predation. The book explores the biological adaptations that enable these creatures to thrive, such as sophisticated hunting strategies and camouflage. It also emphasizes their ecological significance, revealing how they shape their environments and impact biodiversity. By focusing on often-overlooked organisms, ""Tiny Predators"" challenges conventional notions about predation, highlighting the importance of biodiversity at all scales. The book progresses by first introducing the concept of tiny predators, then delving into specific examples across insects and amphibians, and concluding with the broader implications of their predatory activities. The approach of ""Tiny Predators"" is both informative and engaging, aiming to educate readers about the complex world of these miniature hunters. It draws from diverse sources like behavioral observations and anatomical studies to provide a comprehensive account. What sets this book apart is its unique focus on the specific adaptations that small size facilitates, demonstrating how these tiny creatures excel as predators in their respective niches.

Sundy Snow is so concerned about her future that she neglects the present. A classroom of fresh-faced second-graders is her dream and the reason (along with her naivete) that she refuses to fully register the trouble in her young marriage. She is, further, too busy with her future to heed the warning of Rose Chermini, a woman she and husband Jason have just rescued from a Louisiana highway. But Rose Chermini has warned that the president will be killed. And in Dallas. It is November, 1963. Back in Knoxville following their brief trip to Lake Charles, Louisiana, Sundy attempts to resume her normal, extensive work schedule, ignoring the significance of Rose Chermini's words - despite the unalterable fact that John F. Kennedy has been assassinated. And in Dallas. But strange and dangerous events begin to rock the young couple's routine. And Jason's growing fascination with the conflicting and dumbfounding news surrounding the assassination add additional stress to their six-month marriage. The death of a fraternity brother propels the couple, with their friend, Rick Harnish, to Dallas. While danger now lurks in other forms, the truth of their marriage finally unfolds while the characters and mysteries in the JFK assassination finally launch Sundy into the present. Patty Duncan lived through the drama of the John F. Kennedy assassination and, as a young woman, began to believe the cynicism of the Sixties could be traced, at least in part, to that sad event. She has spent twenty-five years in public relations and advertising, including a stint as press secretary in the Tennessee legislature. With retirement, she turned again to assassination theories and was surprised that so little attention had been given to Rose Chermini, a woman who warned medical personnel of the impending assassination. "Although there is a dearth of information about Rose Chermini, she, and her warning, warrants further attention - as do some of the other players in the assassination drama. "I chose a story of a young couple who are struggling with their own busy lives, intersecting their demons and foibles with the startling, appalling idea that their very own government could be involved in the tragedy that occurred November 22, 1963. "Subjects that belong to the American public, as the Kennedy assassination certainly does, invite us to revisit them again and again," Patty said. Dividing their time between Cape Coral, Florida and Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, Patty and husband Joe, when not reading, writing, or playing tennis, can be found humbly fulfilling the fancies of their two cats, Leggs and Al.
