MIND: PSYCHOLOGY, THE UNTOLD STORY OF HOW YOUR MIND WORKS...

https://www.amazon.com/dp/1736002554

This is a book about the most important discoveries in psychology. Not just the gnawed bones of the studies in a textbook, but what has been left out of what you think you know. From Genius to Suicide Bombers, from Science to Sex, all the best they never told you in school. 362 Pages, 7.5X9, fully illustrated

• The Brain: How experience controls the biology of the brain: Adrenalin, Cortisol, and Neurotransmitters flood the brain in response to words, Hollywood horror movies, anxiety-producing thoughts, and the girls shrieking “Witch, Witch!” at the Salem witch trial...

• Quest for the Mind Code; how the mind is programmed by the environment.

• New Evidence: How learning "hardwires" the brain for language, emotion, culture, sex....

• MInd Control is an everyday occurrence. Psychology’s General Theory of Relativity; Kamikaze pilots, suicide bombers, celebrity, Tank Killing dogs, sex, and Sacred Cows.  

•The success of Genius is not about the brain, it is about learning how to think. How the greatest minds in history made their discoveries, in their own words.

• Cogito, ergo, cogito cogito: I think, therefore, I think, I think. The fact that we can think has created the illusion that we do think. Test yourself.  Perception determines our reality.

• What the greatest minds in psychology know about how the mind works. Understanding how the mind works gives us the potential to control our own mind, just as Einstein’s understanding of the atom gave us the potential to control the atom. We are far behind in that understanding.

Own the Room: How to Communicate to Be Seen, Heard and Respected

   

Own the Room:

How to Communicate to Be Seen, Heard and Respected

Own the Room is not a book about public speaking. It’s a book about human perception. Why do some people command attention the moment they walk into a room while others struggle to be heard? Why do certain leaders, salespeople, creators, and communicators create trust instantly while others feel forgettable—even when they’re more qualified? Because communication is never just about words. Before people evaluate your ideas, they evaluate you. Your confidence. Your certainty. Your emotional control. Your authenticity. Your presence. Human beings are constantly making unconscious decisions about who feels trustworthy, capable, safe, persuasive, and memorable long before logic enters the equation. In Own the Room, communication strategist Jake Stahl breaks down the hidden psychology behind influence, authority, trust, and presence in a way that is both deeply practical and psychologically precise. Drawing from decades of experience training professionals across industries, along with principles from behavioral psychology, social psychology, neuroscience, and NLP, Stahl reveals how subtle emotional signals shape every interaction we have. This book explores why people react differently to the exact same words depending on who says them, why approval-seeking weakens persuasion, how insecurity leaks through communication, and why emotional congruence matters more than rehearsed perfection. Readers will learn how to create psychological trust, regulate tension, project grounded confidence, and communicate in a way that makes people feel seen, understood, and certain. Whether in business, leadership, sales, relationships, negotiations, interviews, podcasts, presentations, or everyday conversations, Own the Room teaches readers how to stop performing and start communicating with clarity, authority, and emotional precision. Because the people who truly own the room are not always the loudest, smartest, or most charismatic. They’re the people who understand how the room works.

Rachel Based on a true story

Rachel

Based on a true story At first, it is little things.

Missing belongings, cruel jokes disguised as banter, and silence that feels heavy for reasons Rachel doesn’t understand.

Then come the mind games, the control, and the fear that creeps through the walls of the house.

No door handles, gaps in the doors, no privacy.

Eyes are always watching her, even when she is alone.

Mental abuse that turns even more uncomfortable as Toby looks at young Rachel in a way no man ever should. Her secrets are locked in her chest.

As Rachel grows up trapped inside a world where the truth is twisted and love is used as control, she doesn’t realise that surviving someone like Toby means losing herself along the way.

The Algorithm of Us

Maya Lin believes in data—not destiny. As the lead algorithm engineer behind HeartSpark, the world’s most successful dating app, her entire job revolves around proving that love can be measured, calculated, and optimized. But after a humiliating breakup goes viral, her company’s reputation—and her confidence—take a devastating hit, leaving Maya convinced that love, at least for her, is something better solved with science than trust. Enter Eli Torres, charismatic host of the internet’s favorite podcast, The Anti-Love Experiment. His mission? Prove dating apps manipulate emotions and ruin authentic relationships. And HeartSpark is his No. 1 target. When Eli launches a public challenge encouraging listeners to date without algorithms, HeartSpark panics. To repair the company’s reputation, Maya is forced to work closely with Eli—publicly and professionally—putting the face behind the algorithm directly in the path of its loudest critic. What begins as damage control quickly becomes something more personal, especially as Maya starts to realize she may have miscalculated him—and love itself. Only one problem: Maya didn’t expect Eli to be funny. Or thoughtful. Or devastatingly sincere. Or someone she could fall for—fast, when falling is the one variable she’s sworn never to risk again. As they navigate bookstore meet-cutes, awkward “old-fashioned” dates, and viral challenge videos, the chemistry between them becomes impossible to ignore. But the closer they get, the heavier Maya’s secret becomes… and the more terrifying the idea of losing Eli feels, because when he fully understands who she is and what she represents, the fallout threatens everything—her career, his platform, and the fragile belief that love might be more than data after all. In a world where love is automated, what happens when two people choose to follow their hearts instead? Perfect for fans of The Love Hypothesis, The Soulmate Equation, and The Unhoneymooners, The Algorithm of Us is a hilarious, heart-squeezing, slow-burn romance about modern dating, second chances, and the magic that can’t be calculated.

Best of Friends Trilogy

   

Best of Friends Trilogy

Book 1: Best of Friends: What happens when a family death wreaks havoc among siblings? What would you do if the ‘peace-maker’ of the family suddenly loses control? If the opportunity arose, would you agree to simply ‘burn the will,’ sell the estate and split the proceeds? What would be your response when calling the cops and being told: “We’re not coming out, unless there are bullets flying and bodies to count?” Elizabeth Caliente is faced with such propositions in Sherry Brantley’s award-winning ‘Best of Friends’ trilogy. Best of Friends has won two national awards for ‘Best Fiction of the Year!’

Book 2: Before Best of Friends: In this much-anticipated prequel to the ‘Best of Friends,’ trilogy, readers discover how the Fabulous Five group were formed in their youth, and are introduced to the unfolding of the powerful secrets binding the group together. Secrets only this private group were privileged to know. Join this tight-knit group as you uncover the mystery of the ‘Secret of the Blanket.’ Included is an excerpt from the books’ final work of the trilogy, ‘Still Best of Friends.’

Book 3: Still Best of Friends: The explosive conclusion of the ‘Best of Friends’ trilogy! The Fabulous Five were bound together by secrets they’d all swore to carry to their graves. But with the ‘Dastardly Duke Discovery’ exposing the ‘Secret of the Blanket,’ will the Fabulous Five find themselves desperately being consumed in a modern-day media frenzy that is threatening to consume them? Will this group of friends be able to survive the onslaught of the public revelation of their past deeds? Or will they crumble under the weight of their unexpected circumstances? Travel with the Fabulous Five: Elizabeth Caliente’, Kim Worthy, Kiona Stone, Angela Jackson-(A.J.) and Quineeta Davis as once again, they attempt to weather the storms of adversity that threaten to decimate their bond, their friendship, their past! Will the ‘Dastardly Duke Discovery’ prove to be the final nail in the coffin? Or will vow to continue to ‘deny ‘til they die,’ their involvement in the mystery they’re shrouded in?

Meet the dynamic members of the Fabulous Five as this explosive trilogy takes readers on a whirlwind excursion among five friends. Though often humorous, the ride is filled with lessons on friendship, family dynamics and strong relationships. You’ll love connecting and bonding with the members of the Fabulous Five, as they deal individually and collectively with the drama that surrounds them!
