How the Pill Changes Everything

Your Brain on Birth Control

Positive psychology researcher and bestselling author Michelle Gielan reveals how science-backed habits can help you sustain optimism and thrive through stress, uncertainty, and change.Optimism--it's crucial for making progress in life and work. And it's easy to feel optimistic at the start of a new project or when you're on a successful roll, full of hope and energy. But when setbacks strike, optimism can quickly evaporate, dragging down performance, morale, and even health. With workplace engagement at an all-time low and burnout at historic highs, the key question becomes this: How do we sustain optimism--even through challenging times?Bestselling author and researcher Michelle Gielan offers a science-backed answer in Resilient Optimism. Drawing on decades of research in positive psychology and neuroscience, Gielan reveals that making optimism endure isn't about forcing positive emotions or ignoring reality--it's about building simple, repeatable behaviors that create a positive mindset and make it stick. These mindful practices transform challenges into fuel for resilience, performance, and well-being.With compelling stories and actionable strategies, Gielan guides readers through five key behaviors: recalibrating mindset to focus on what's working, reframing stress as a tool for growth, triaging commitments to protect energy, recharging smarter to sustain performance, and connecting the dots of our busy lives through small acts that spark meaning. To support her advice, she shares breakthrough findings--from studies showing how optimism predicts success and health to real-world examples of leaders and teams who turned adversity into advantage.Practical, inspiring, and deeply researched, this book shows that optimism isn't a predetermined trait--it's a trainable skill, accessible to anyone. Whether you're navigating organizational upheaval, economic uncertainty, or personal setbacks, Resilient Optimism is your roadmap for thriving in tough times.

Resilient Optimism

This book offers the first comprehensive sociological analysis of a Pan-Indian Fandom with a transnational footprint.It postulates a sociological definition of 'Fan' and 'Fandom', something lacking in existing literature to date. It also foregrounds a new theory and definition of 'Persona', in addition to substantiating fresh concepts like 'Access Taboo', 'Neutral Reciprocity', 'Diglossic Fan Sociality', 'Numerocracy' and 'Post-Banks'. These concepts and definitions serve to anchor and rejuvenate the Sociology of Fan Cultures, a nascent yet timely field of enquiry. The book revitalizes the Structuralist Tradition in Indian Sociology while also illuminating Fandom through a wealth of new perspectives derived from German Idealism, Symbolic Interactionism, Anthropology of Art and Film Semiotics.This book is an invaluable resource for students and scholars in Sociology, Social Anthropology, Political Sociology, Media Studies, Digital Humanities, Communication Studies, Culture Studies, Film Studies, Performance Studies, Gender Studies, Arts and Aesthetics, and South Asian Studies, giving fresh insights into the evolving dynamics of Fan Cultures in the Digital Age.

Forget the glass ceiling - there's also a glass wall dividing men and women in the workplace, separating them in terms of career success. In this ten-year anniversary edition of the bestselling book, the authors look at what has changed for women in the workplace since 2016. Spoiler alert - not a lot. The Glass Wall is a pragmatic guide to success for women at work. Since the first edition was published, whilst there has been some meaningful progress, in some areas, things have gone into reverse. In this 10th anniversary edition, the authors examine the latest research and gauge whether things have improved or not for women at work since the #MeToo movement and the global pandemic caused seismic change. Every week brings new headlines that cause unease as much as reason to celebrate. Meanwhile generative AI is sustaining stereotyped images and exacerbating inequity. In terms of real power, both in government and at work, things haven't changed enough. Debates about the pros and cons of remote and hybrid working continue to impact women and their careers. More companies offer parental leave to new parents, but most of it is still taken by mothers rather than fathers. The new debate around menopause at work is positive, unless it becomes another stick to keep women down. The Glass Wall, 10th Anniversary Edition helps new groups of women to navigate the workplace, make their lives happier, and empower real change.

The Cortisol Reset Plan

An adoptive parent and historian delves into the differences of families made by law, not biology-- and shows us the deep value of those differences Adoption touches on some of our most vexing social questions, about race and sexuality, abortion rights, economic inequality, even foreign policy and global poverty. More than that, it prods us in tender places, reminding us of our own questions about belonging and separation, identity and alienation, our worries about what is determined by fate and what is freely choose. Blending personal memoir, history, and broader reflection on American culture, Ordinary Days and Tender Places offers a fresh take on adoption. As an historian and an adoptive parent, Bendroth takes seriously the criticisms and the personal pain many adoptees face, but she also invites readers to take a bigger view. This book asks us to turn the mirror on ourselves and consider the peculiarities of what we consider “normal” family life. In the end, our questions and controversies obscure a basic fact: raising children born to someone else is a time-honored human practice. In the past and in many cultures today, our modern American ideal, the two-parent biologically-related nuclear family, is an oddity. Within the long history of humanity our ideas about kinship and our beliefs about what constitutes a “normal” household are surprisingly narrow and, in the end, not all that helpful. Bendroth introduces readers to new ways of thinking about adoption, exploring the history of American families and children as well as fascinating findings by biologists and evolutionary anthropologists about kinship practices, genetics and inheritance, even motherhood itself. This is, in other words, a book about adoption and much more. It is an invitation to readers to reflect on their own lives, to think deeply about our human need to connect, to love, and belong.

Winner, 2021 Porchlight Business Book of the Year Award, for Leadership and Strategy&nbsp; "THE MOST UNLIKELY OF PEOPLE, IN THE MOST IMPROBABLE OF CIRCUMSTANCES, CAN BECOME EXTRAORDINARY." WE NEED MORE LEADERS. From socio-political chaos and workplace disruption to the climate change crisis, we have never needed people with the skill and will to collaborate to create a better world more than now. We need people who are willing to fill the leadership void. People who will embrace the influence they have. People who believe in improving society and workplace culture - not only because it makes life better, but because it is proven to yield positive results. The Promises of Giants is a challenge to anyone who aspires to make a difference in their environment. Over fourteen promises, it seamlessly intertwines personal anecdotes and workplace and social observation with the latest research, to provide practical, proven tips and strategies to empower you to maximize your own potential and inspire others. It is not a self-help book. It is a how-to guide for winning, rooted in the belief that the most unlikely of people, in the most improbable of circumstances, can become extraordinary. John Amaechi well understands the responsibilities and potential that come with being a giant. The Promises of Giants is the product of a lifetime spent observing and studying effective leadership - from accompanying his mother's visits to her dying patients to competing at the highest levels of professional sport, through two decades of management consulting with multinational corporations. These experiences have shown that everyone has the ability to act decisively to influence the world in a positive way. Everyone is a giant to someone.

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

The Psychology of Money
The Psychology of Money: Unveiling the Secrets of Financial Behavior by Dr. Maxwell Shimba is not a conventional personal finance manual promising get-rich-quick schemes or secret stock tips. Rather, it is a profound interdisciplinary excavation of the human relationship with money, drawing from behavioral economics, neuroscience, clinical psychology, sociology, and philosophy. The book's central thesis is revolutionary yet simple: money is fundamentally a psychological artifact, a vessel into which we pour our deepest fears, hopes, identities, and narratives. Every financial decision-from the mundane morning coffee purchase to the monumental retirement portfolio allocation-is a window into our internal world, shaped by childhood imprints, cultural conditioning, and ancient neural wiring. Dr. Shimba systematically dismantles the myth of Homo economicus, the perfectly rational actor, and replaces it with a far more complex and compassionate portrait of the human being navigating an increasingly complex financial landscape.
The book is structured as an expedition through ten interconnected territories of financial psychology, beginning with the foundational architecture of the money mindset. Dr. Shimba guides readers through an archaeological dig of their earliest money memories, the cognitive biases that systematically distort judgment, and the emotional underpinnings-fear, greed, regret, shame-that often override our best intentions. The work is grounded in rigorous scholarship, from Kahneman and Tversky's Prospect Theory to the neuroscientific mapping of the brain on money, yet it remains intensely practical. Each chapter builds upon the last, moving from individual psychology into the powerful currents of social influence, the intricate dance between money and meaning, and the psychological preparation required for life's great transitions: marriage, parenthood, career volatility, and retirement. The twenty-year case study contrasting Michael's scarcity mindset with David's abundance orientation serves as a haunting, instructive parable of how internal architecture shapes external destiny.
What distinguishes this work from other books on financial psychology is its unflinching engagement with the frontiers of our moment. Dr. Shimba devotes substantial attention to the digital transformation of money-the algorithmic agents now co-piloting our investment decisions, the frictionless interfaces that have anesthetized the "pain of paying," the ethical quagmires of fintech dark patterns and algorithmic bias, and the psychological challenges of the gig economy and cryptocurrency speculation. Yet the book never succumbs to technological determinism or Luddite nostalgia. Instead, it charts a third path: the way of the Integrator, who possesses dual citizenship in both the Digital Republic of algorithmic fluency and the Republic of Inner Experience, where timeless human values reside. The future of money psychology, Dr. Shimba argues, is not a prediction but a practice-the daily, disciplined integration of the Technologist and the Philosopher-Psychologist.
